"By the way, captain, had no time
to ask Lawrence, and it really did not
occur to ME until after lie had gone, but
what did he mean by saying that DR..
Quin could tell us something about the
people at Dunraven?"
Belknap turned red and looked un-
comfortably at his two comrades, as
though appealing to them for aid. The
younger officers, however, would say
nothing at all, and the colonel promptly
saw that he had stumbled on some piece
on garrison gossip.
"Never mind," he said, with kindly
laugh. 81 don't want to drag any stories
out by the roots. The doctor can doubt
less explain it all in good season."
"Well, Col. Brainard," answered Bel
knap, bulkily, "to tell the truth, I really
don't know anything about 1t, and
don't know any one who does, though ]
have heard some woman talk about the
post. The relations between DR.. Quin
and some Of the officers of the Eleventh
were rather strained, and he is a some
what reserved and secretive man. The
stories were set afloat here last fall, and
we had to hear more or less of them un-
til the Eleventh went away this spring.
We know only that DR.. Quin has been
to Dunraven and the rest of us haven't.
Possibly some Of the Eleventh were
piqued because they had no such luck,
or perhaps their ladies did not like it be-
cause Quin wouldn't tell them anything
about what he saw. AT all events, he
refused to talk on the subject at all, and
allowed people to draw their own con-
clusions."
HE probably told his post COM
mander," suggested Lieut.. Farnham,
who, as acting adjutant of the post and
an aspirant for the adjutancy of the
regiment, thought it good opportunity
of putting in a word as indicative of
what he considered the bounden duty of
an officer under like circumstances.
"Well, no, fancy not" replied Bel
KNAPP. "About the only thing we really
do know is that, in somewhat angry
interview last fall, Col. Stratton forbade
DR.. Quin's leaving the post or going to
Dunraven without his express permis-
sion. happened to be in the Office at
tho time"
"Was it before or after that he was
said to go there 80 often?" asked Farm
ham.
"Well, both," answered Belknap, re-
luctantly. "But understand me, Mr..
Farnham, know nothing whatever OF
the matter"
II should not suppose that Col. STRAIT
ton would care to restrict his post sur
geon from going thither if they needed
his professional services" said Col. Brai-
nard. pleasantly.
"That was the point at issue, appar-
entity" answered Belknap. "Col. STRAIT
ton said that it was not on professional
grounds that he went, and thereby seemed
to widen the breach between them. pr.
Quin would not speak to the colonel after
that, except when duty required it."
The conversation changed here, and
little more was said; but Col. Brainard
could not help thinking of matter that
he carefully kept to himself. 1t was not
his custom to require his officers to ask

The Government Building,

The Carson Tribune Of the Goth in
slant editorially says: The rapidity
with which the Federal building has
been constructed surpasses human
comprehension. It was commenced
only two years and a half ago and will
probably be ready for occupancy be-
fore the end Of the present century.
Ii no accidents occur its erection and
equipment will have occupied con-
siderably less time than was taken to
build the Pyramid OF Cheops, the
Hanging Gardens OF Babylon, or
King Solomons Temple. 1t shows
the immense superiority of the United
States over the old Oriental monarch
les in managing stupendous affairs.
1t is hard to realize that this building
is the work of the present age, and
that the little children who toddle
along the streets, il blessed with
health and strength will live to see it
finished.
or course a private citizen with
half the amount it has cost could
have built it and had it ready for
occupancy within six months, but
then the U. S. Government is not O
private citizon.

A Mathematical Puzzle.

Here Is problem that has been 60
ing the rounds of the press: "a
friend asks me to multiply SIS by SIS.
L do 80 and announce the result as
S25. Now multiply 500 cents, and
give the answer in cents, pure and
simple, not as fractional parts Of
dollar. I do SO and am surprised to
see the figures climb up to 25O,OOO
cents. which is $500. AS IS and 500
cents are equivalent the result is
puzzling. 1t cannot be urged that
decimal marks should be used. A
cent, as such, is as distinct unit as
dollar, and as the result is to be
announced in cents the decimal
cannot be pleaded in extenuation of
the rather surprising result. But
there is clearly something wrong.
What is it?"
There is nothing wrong except in
the proposition. You cannot multi
ply S5 by S., nor 500 cents by 500
cents, for the multiplier must always
be considered an abstract number.
Multiply SIS by and the result is SIS;
multiply IS or 500 cents by and the
result is the same, S25. Multiply So
or 500 cents by 500 and the result is
the same, $4,000. The "clearly some
thing wrong" above mentioned is
simply from the fact that in the first
instance the multiplier is and in the
second 500, and we are surprised that
anyone OF ordinary intelligence should
see anything puzzling in the different
results.

A Cure for Sick Headache.

This distressing complaint is due to
an inactive or sluggish liver with
constipated bowels which deranges

system, causes dizziness and an OPP

sleep. One of DR.. Gums Improved

pain and misery and a few more
