A Task in Multiplication.

A problem that at a glance seems
easy enough to tempt many a schoolboy
to spend q portion of his vacation in an
endeavor to solve it, appeared recently
in Maine journal, and is as follows :
Take the number Is. Multiply it by
itself and you have 225. Now multiply
225 by itself, then multiply that prod
uct by itself, and SO on until fifteen
products have been multiplied by them
selves in turn. The question aroused
considerable interest among lawyers in
Portland, and their best mathemati-
clan, after struggling with the prob
lem long enough to see how much labor
was entailed in the solution, made the
following discouraging report: "The
final product called for contains IS, $50
figures (the first of which are 1412
Allowing three figures to an inch, the
answer would be over 1910 feet long.
To perform the operation would re-
quire about 500, 600, 900 figures. Ifthey
can be made at the rate of 100 minute,

300 days in each year, would be twenty
eight years about it. Ii, in multiplying.
he should make row of ciphers, as he
does in other figures, the number of
figures used would be more than $685.
939, 22S. That would be the precise
number of fiures used if the product of
the left-hand figure in each multiple
cand, by each figure of the multiplier
was always single figure; but, as it is
most frequently, and yet not always,
two figures, the method employed to
obtain the foregoing result cannot be
accurately applied. Assuming that the
cipher is used On an average once in
ten times, Az, ZOO, 900 approximates the
actual number.-BostOn Transcript.

In the Sam Jones Line OF Work.

"Yes." said the evangelist, after bit
ing large chew from plug of black
tobacco and expectorating with marvel
GUS accuracy in the eye of slumbering
dog. I've been a-getting there with
both feet lately. The last town I
stopped at 1 raked lin twenty converts
in one night, and you bet that's big
work. ! get right down to 'em and let
'em know that if they don't waltz up to
the mourner's bench and get religion
they'll be everlastingly in the soup, and
1 generally fetch 'em. OF course, there's
always a lot of chumps you can't do any
thing with, but they don't count for
nothing. I used to be heavyweight
slugger, and I've had a book printed
describing the scraps I've been into.
When the services is over I sell books
to the chaps that's been saved and make
little stuff that way, but there amt no
money in this preaching business. A
feller's got to do it out of pure love for
his fellow-men, Just like do it. 1 want
to save as many as can, and give the
devil the grand razzle-dazzle, and all
the reward ask is to have front seat
in Heaven when 1 turn up my toes.
Well, I'll have to leave you. I'm going
around to see a backslider what was
converted week ago, and when read
the riot act to him you bet I'll snake
him back into the fold. So long" The
noble and self-sacrifcing man then
moved off on his grand mission, hum
ming simple hymn, the burden of
which was to the effect that while the
bed-bug has no wings at all he gets
there just the same. Truly, the world
can never be plunged into utter darkness
while such good men throw themselves

Fun With the Old Man.

He was q meek-looking old gentle
man from the country, and as he took
his seat at the dining-roOm table the
drummers looked at him over their soup
spoons. They noted his weather beaten
face, his wet hair carefully parted and
brushed around over his ears, and his
air of diffidence as he nervously fingered
his fork; and when the waiter girl stood
at his side and winked at the boot-and.
shoe man, they were all attention.
"Soup?" she asked.
The old man seemed bit surprised
at the brevity of the bill of fare, and
fidgeted about as though waiting for her
to say something more.
Would you like some soup?" said
the girl with side-glance at the coffee
and-spice man.
II amt particular about soup, as I
know Of" answered the old man.
Boil muffin capersauce, roas' beef,
rs lamb, rs veal. fricasse chick'n, cole
ham-tongue, chick'n-salad, fritters,
boil'n' baked p'tatus," said the girl with
ightning-ike rapidity.
The old man looked kind of helpless,
and the boys felt little sorry for him
as he kept his eyes fastened on the fork,
which he showed from side to side with
his fingers.
Il guess I'll take-I guess you'll have
to say that again" he said, looking up,
and the girl ratified the whole thing off
in exactly the same time as before.
The old man looked round the table
and caught sight of drummer winking
ut the girl; then he jerked his head
around, and looking her straight in the
face, he said:
"You may gimme SIN bile cornbeefn'

Coufidencc Berot Of succ....

So confident are the manufacturers of that
world famed remedy. Dr.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, that it will do all that
they represent, in the cure of liver, blood,
and lung diseases, that, after witnessing its
thousands of cures for many years past. they
now feel warranted in selling it las they are
doing through druggistsl under q positive
guarantee of its giving satisfaction in every
case, or money paid for it will be refunded.
No medicine of ordinary merit could be sold
under such severe conditions with profit to
its proprietors, and no other medicine for
the diseases for which it is recommended
was ever before sold under guarantee of a
cure or no pay. In all blood taints and I'M
purities of whatever name and nature. it Is
most positive in its effects. Pimples, blotch-
es, eruptions and all skin and scalp diseases
are radically cured by this wonderful medi-
cine. Scrofulous diseases may affect the
glands, causing swellings or tumors; the
bones, causing ''fever-sores," ''white-swel-
hnrs" or "hip-joint disease:" or the tissues
of the lungs, causing pulmonary consump-
ton. No matter in which one of its myriad
forms it crops out, or manifests itself,
Golden Medical Discovery" will cure it if
used perseveringly and in time.

PUBLIC ALARH.
TimeA.

There haa been much excitement within IL
past few d 10 over the condition Of our drink
ing water and the alarming increase Of Sum.
mer diseases. On every side people have been
overheard conversing on this subject, which y
certainly Of the greatest importance. The fol-
lowing facts, which We have gathered and
which bear directly upon the question, Win b
found both interesting and profitable:
Mr.. Henry Brown, Of the American Bank
Note Company, said: 'During the warm
weather we are often obliged to keep our peo-
pie at work day and night, 30 that employees
have the heat TO endure as well as the odof Of
the various inks. desire to acknowledge my
recognition Of the valuable service Perry Davis
Pain-Killer has rendered our employees. 1t has
grown so popular among my people We should
hesitate to be without it."
Mr.. II. F. Greer, agent Of the College Of
Electrical Engineering, said: 81 have studied
medicine and have travelled extensively in
Europe, Asia, Africa and America I have
seen the dangers and deaths that hot weather
and bad water bring, but have never found .
better medicine than Perry Davis Pain-Killer.s
Chief Engineer j. A Severns, U. 8. R. NJ,
said: Il cannot speak too highly of Perry
Davis Pain-Killer in cases of cholera, diar-
rhoa, etc. have had occasion to use 1t both
for myself and for the men on board ship, and

den their eyes with the sight Of the i'm.
notation. The inner circles were com.
posed of painted warriors, who filed the
air with their vociferations and coarse
jests. All eyes were fixed upon the
pale victim as, with hands and feet
dashed to the stake, he faced his tor
mentors. The executioner sprang into
the ring, and, waving aloft a lighted
torch, and with many fantastic motions
of the body he approached the captive.
In moment more the fire would be
ignited and the hellish feast would
be on. Now was the supreme moment
for the aged chieftess. She slipped q
knife into the hands of her son, babe
him leap to the captive's rescue, loose
with his sharp blade the helpless victim,
proclaim aloud his craftsmanship and
leave the rest to her sagacity.
Fired by the inspiration of his ambi-
tious mother. the young warrior electri-
fed the crowd by springing into their
midst. He dashed the torch-bearer
aside, waved his cleaning knife, pro-
claimed that he was the chief chosen by
the Great Spirit, and after few slashes
of his knife babe the prisoner go free.
Astonishment and surprise filled the
minds of the Indians. Although
cheated of their prize, they were SO car
ried away with the heroism of the son
of their chieftess that they regarded
him with feelings of admiration rather
than displeasure and were very gen.
orally satisfied at the strangeness of the
denouement and bold rescue. Pc
she-wa, the Wild Cat. was thereafter
favorite, esteemed by all the tribe as
god and he became straightway chief
of the first rank.
After satisfying herself OF the COM
plete success of her plan, and after see
ing the surprise of the crowd changed
to admiration of her son and his valorous
deed, the willy mother, in the confusion,
conducted the white man out of the vii
lage, and placed him in a canoe which
was covered with peltries. The canoe
was given into the keeping of some
friendly Indians and was soon gliding
down the Maumee River safely out of
the reach of the blood-thirsty Miamis.
The sequel of this thrilling incident
Chief Richardville stated to Mr..
Hamilton with much satisfaction. Many
years afterwards, being on his way to
Washington to visit the President, he
stopped at a town in Ohio. A stranger
approached and carefully scrutinized
him. Suddenly he threw his arms
around the Chiefs neck. 1t was the
rescued prisoner, who now in his old
age embraced his benefactor with all
the warmth of filial affection and graft
tude. The meeting was one of mingled
pleasure and surprise to both. As the
leading chief of his tribe, and in their
behalf, Richardville was present at and
signed the treaty of st. Mary's, Ohio,
on October 6. 1918. Before that time,
however, he was a party to the impor-
tant treaty of Greenville, in 1895, and
his name was also signed to the treaty
of Fort Wayne, in June, 1903, and the
treaty made at Vincennes, Ind, in 1905

in row on the sidewalk. Just then
