squnrlng the Circle.

The origin Of the problem squaring
the circle is almost lost in the mists
of antiquity, but there is record of
an attempted quadrature in Egypt
500 years before the exodus of the
Jews. There is also a claim, accord
ing to Hone, that the problem was
solved by discovery of Hippocrates,
the geomerician of Chios--not the
physician 500 b. G. Now, the Of
forts of Hippocrates were devoted to
ward converting circle into a cres
cent, because he had found that the
area OF figure produced by drawing
two perpendicular radii in circle is
exactly equal 10 the triangle formed
by the line of junction. This IL the
famous theorem of the "lunes of
Hippocrates, aud is like glaubers
salts out of the philosophers stone,
an example of the useful results
which sometimes follow n search for
the unattainable. All the World

A Trade for Boys.

= If had my way would insist that
every boy should learn trade The
man who has a trade is thousand
times better equipped than the man
who has none. Let every boy select
the trade that best suits his ability
and promises the highest honors and
remuneration. When he has mas
tered his trade, if he dislikes it or it
is not profitable. he can begin to
study profession or enter upon a
commercial life If he should fail in
both of these he is still master of a
good trade--something that no one
can take away from him, no matter
what exigencies may arise. The man
who is master of a good trade is as
independent as a millionaire. He
need never want; he can find profta,
BILE work in any corner of the world.
do not say one word against a
professional career. But | do say
emphatically that the man who has
a trade and a profession rs well need
have no fear of the future. The boy
who wants to can master trade be-
tween the years of sixteen and
twenty. and if he dislikos it he still
has time to study medicine, the law
or any other of the learned profes-
sions. But if he waits until he is
twenty or over he may not have an
opportunity or feel inclined to learn
either. Foster Coates in Ladies'

Deacon Jones aud Elder White had
lived On adjoining farms for over
thirty years. and never a word Of
dispute hal passed. between them.
Their wagons. piows. drags. hoes,
rakes and other utensils were used
In common. They had lots side by
side in the graveyard. and more than
once they had loaned and borrowed
chairs for funeral. Two brothers
would not have agreed az well as
these two men did in politics. religion
and all else. One afternoon as the
elder wls moving his dooryard the
deacon t=lme over to trade newspa-
pers with him. and they sat down
under cherry tree to talk. Pretty
soon along came q stranger who an
nounced that he was a surveyor. and
he asked if they didn't want the line
run.
why. bless you I" replied the elder,
we've bin ivin by that line fur
thirty yearsl"
"That doesn't make it right, re-
piled the surveyor.
II guess that line is right on the
spot. said the deacon.
The surveyor wanted a job, and he
kept talking and talking, and finally
offered to run the line 80 cheap that
the elder said:
1--WE might do it jest to hunt up
the old landmarks"
"Well, I'm willin to pay M sheer, -
replied the deacon.
After the stranger had seen their
deeds and dug out the old stakes as
starting point he got down to bust
ness, and in about half an hour he
announced that the line fence was
four feet over on the deacon.
II allus suspected it, F" said the dea-
con, but | didn't keer about them
four feet.
And I've knowed fur over twenty
years that you was over FIVE feet on
to me-" replied the elder II had
the line run that time you went to
Ohio, but | didn't want to say nuth-
in"
"I'n warrant my work TO DO cor
rect, said the surveyor.
Cant be, replied the elder
HE orter know his bizness." put
in the deacon.
"What Dye claim that I'm four
feet on to you1'
"Tve allus suspected"
"Wall, 'tain't so, and I'll bet the
