The method depends upon the fact
that sl-1OOs Of the principal equals the
interest at IL per cent Dividing this by
tro gives the interest for one month at
Is per cent. Multiplying this result by
the time expressed in months and deci.
mails Of q month gives the required inter-
: est. .
The above from theaSouttwestern Jour.
nal of Education, is the simplest and
shortest method of calculating interest
that has ever been devised; indeed, tits
{ so simple and obvious that!it,is wonder
that it had not been discovered sooner.
Yet, it 8ould:probably be we'll, in order
to make the subject clear to. those per.
sons who have not had much practice in
solving examples in interest, to add q
word OF two by way Of explanation. It
was stated in the above article that if we
divide the principal BY 100, We obtain
the interest for one mouth at IL per cent.
We know to obtain one per cent, we
divide BY 100, or cut off the two right
hand figures Of the principal, and to
obtain 12 per cent. we multiply this
result BY u. But IL per cent. is the
interest for one, year, or twelve months,
and. to obtain the interest for. one month,
sgor one.t8e.fth Of 3 year, requires that ne
divide byj12. This is. needless, since in
dividing BY IL We simply reverse the
work ne did in multiplying BY u.

THE SPIRIT OF 1T.

The proposition made by the San
Antonio street railway company to
pay the city twenty per cent of all net
receipts over all lines of road here.
after established under grant fro m
the city, marks new movement in
the relations existing between cor
porations existing by virtue of mu-
nicipal franchise and the city herself.
Why should this city, any more than
others, dispose of valuable privileges
to private individuals without secur-
ing in return some monetary returns.
If the city grants such franchise for
nothing when she can secure revenue
from them, she is doing an injustice to
her taxpayers. The proposition 10
put electric motors on the existing
tracks is a good one and should be
favorable considered by our council.
San Antonio with electric motors fer
her street cars, well paved streets
and good system of sewerage would
draw capital and population to herself
as never dreamed of in the most san
guine mind and moods of her people.
The offer of the street car company
may be fully taken as an earnest
of the newer life which is destined to
pervade this city and quicken all her
currents in very few years if net
months. 1t is spirit utterly at war
and entirely foreign to the spirit so
long prevailing here and which finds
lis present embodiment and express
sion in the council of today. The old
and the new are struggling fol
supremacy here. The old fighting des
perately to retain its own but fighting
nopelessly, the new with ever in
creasing hope and courage growing
more and more aggressive and certain
to triumph in the end. The LIGHT
joyfully halls every sign of this new
order and takes to itself new courage
to fight the battle for progress anC
ineteenth century methods as each
year shows the decrease of the forces
of the old, the increase of the forces o.
the new.
