Lord RAlrnerston.

A minister who kept race horses
and had at his command good store Of
very blunt vernacular, who could not
be got to admit that he understood an
abstract thought. who always knew
what he wanted and was determined to
carry 1t out regardless Of the opinions
Of others, who conceived his own ideas
to be superior to those Of other people,
who never looked farther than tomorrow
and much preferred not to think beyond
this evening, but who at the same time
was determined to establish the privi-
lege of an Englishman to the sidewalk
all over the world, while men Of other
nations might step into the gutter
this minister represented aspirations
which had long ago sickened under the
rounded periods intended 70 convince
humanity that bread and calico summed
up their total requirements and were
more sufficient for rational happiness.
This was the popular conception Of
Palmerston when. in 1865, he became

CUBE ROOT MADE EASY.


HoW Any bright Scholar Nay Learn 20
Tell 1t Onhand.
! To find The cube root Of any given
number Of figures offhand seems an al
most impossible feat, but yet 1t is sim-
pie enough when one knows how to do
it-so simple, indeed. that any bright
boy can learn to do 1t in few weeks
First he must know exactly what q
cube is-namely, that it is the result
Of multiplying one number by itself
and then multiplying the product by the
original number. Thus, multiplied
BY equals Q, and multiplied by 5,
tho original number, produces "a, which
consequently is the cube Of g. The cube
root Of ~ is the original number, 5.
and to find the cube root is the reverse
Of finding the cube. The would be adept
at this art should first study carefully
the following figures:
c<.xEe. sxsx@ps sssSs-als
7x7x7=sS s><sxs%5l2 eo9x9k720
A close study of these figures shows
that multiplied in this manner by it.
self results in 8, that multiplied BY
itself has as a final figure, that 8 null
tiplied by itself has as final figure,
that multiplied by itself has as a
final figure, and that 4, 8, 8 and 8 null
tiplied by themselves have their origi-
nal figures as finals. Hence the "artist''
knows that any sum given to him the
final figure of which is 8 must have 2
as cube root; that If the final figure
be 8, the cube root must be 8, and 90
on.
| For example, give him the figures
"a, 088, and he can at once tell that ~
is the cube root, for the reason that "a
has as cube root, as the cube Of il
"a, while the cube of is 1876, much
more than -, and OS8 has as q cube
root
Or give him more difficult problem,
as, for example, the figures 1874. 500.
Then he will see at a glance TINT 1924 IL
more than ZIG. which is the cube of 6,
but is less than 343, the cube Of 2.
Therefore the cube root Of these three
figures is 6. In like manner the fina
figure Of 800 being 8, it follows that the
cube root Of these three figures is o, anG
thus the cube root of the six figures hal
been shown to be 60.
Any one can test this method fol
himself, and little practice is all thai
is needed to make one as delft in sucl
jugglery Of figures as the best Light
ming calculator.
OF course a skilled arithmeticia1
could easily frame problems that could
not be solved in this offhand fashion
but such difficult tests are seldom offered
by public audiences, and, as a rule, tn,
"artists" are easily able to answer al
the questions asked Of them.-Nev
