4 Venerable Subscriber RepIies

Mr.. Editor! I have been Q subscriber
and reader Of the Union Journal and
Afterwards to the present time of The
Union Times and still feel that am one
OF you and take . persoEsl interest In all
that happens on that side OF the river.
You will excuse me but was struck
with the argument as to when the Goth
century heoins In yosr last ISSUE and
your argument Is to mile posts, cot.
NOW ! look st It this way. A century
Is an interger In the great circle OF time,
and is composed Of 100 years. A dollar
Is an integer In the great world Of flnance
and is composed OF 100 cents. Every
century contains 100 years-every dollar
contains 100 cents. Now let US see.
Suppose owe you $l9 and want to nav
it IN one cent PIECES, it will require 100
Of them to pay yol.' I offer you ! ,e9o
cents docs that pay the amount due?
Again, each year in the century CORE.
spends to each cent in the dollar. Each
century and each dollar being an entire
thing, unit in numbers OF It's denoni-
nation. have made 1900 cents which
$l9, now when will 7 begin to make
my 20th dollat1 When Twas maxim,
the Last asnt Of my Sls or when / maks

Whenf It you say when you begin to
rHako tho Last cent Of the 1900 1 will
agree that 1t is . part Of the Goth century
out am sure you cannot say that, be-
cause no part OF the Goth dollar has come
In sight, tho 10th dollar not beipg fin;shed;

appear until IL p. m. Dec. 81, 1900 has

Looking at II from my standpoint 1900

and 80 on until the centuries have reached
our Reneration, A. d. 1899, which ends
at the end Of the present month, when
the present century will like one year OF
it, compliment.
The year A. d. 1900 will complete the
lSth century and the Goth century will
begin A. d. JAM, 1901.
III am correct you have correctly
dated the present issue Of the Times,
and your calendar is correct. II un-
drrstand your century article you insist
that the year 1900 Is the first year of the
ne = century, and not tho last year Of
tho present century. The date OF your
paper proves otherwise. Y& CORRECTLY
date your parer 1899 and must admit
that % year u not 100 years and II moi, ,
fhen the present year 1899 needs another
year to complete the 10Th century ending
3lst OF December 1900 when the ne "
10th century will take its date A. ID.
1901, Jan. 1st.
When look over the list of names
who differ in this century sum il reminds
me of little puzzle that caused a much
larger number to come within ono of it.
The puzzle consists Of three columns of
figures arranged thus:

plant his seeds and go to sleep for a month When he wakes up he will find his crop ready for market. The industrious farmer who keeps down the weeds can raise three times as much as the lazy one
 When one crop has been gathered anoth- CT can be planted, for it is harvest every day in Hawaii.
 The farmer who comes from the states comes as a rule to raise sugar cane. Ha- waii and all the Sandwich Islands yield sugar cane as northern states grow grass. It seems to spring up out of the soil and the sugar trust would make money if it hired the whole of the Sandwich Islands In fact nothing but sugar cane ought to be raised here, and the planters could take a contract to supply the world. The consul here is said to have told a settler that a man with a wagon and farm tools and enough money to buy horses-whch are cheap here-could make living from the start if he had rations enough to feed him. self and his family four weeks until the first crop was ready.

in the same strain. As he stood there fac ing the audience with flashing eyes he seemed a changed man. His voice was clear and there was no hesitation in speech or manner. He carried the audience with him by sheer force of honesty and cour- age. Before he had finished speaking Ma jor Hobbs the Hustler, had left the room, and that night he left Milltown and did not return. The organization of the North Milltown Land company was never com pleted
 An hour later Editor Jones entered the office with quick, firm step, but his face very pale, and there was a hopeless look in his eyes.
 Any success collecting?" he asked.
 Every little; but permit me to congratu- late you. Without comment on your judg- ment. I must say your courage was su- perb' I replied.
 "Thank you. Come now it is late; we must get the paper out; it may be our last issue'' he said, with a feeble smile that faded into an expression of patient resig- nation.
 Not one line of news of the failure of the land company scheme appeared in the Watchman that went to press slugged, filled and double leaded, at o'clock that afternoon.
 When the press started Editor Jones came into the office room and sitting down buried his face in his hands. He was pie ture of dejection as he sat there without hope of getting out another issue of his paper.
 There was knock at the door, and Per kus, the banker, came in. He was a gruff, quek-spoken man, who had made money by driving hard bargains, but there was kindly smile on his face as he entered the room.
 ''Jones you are brick. You've got cour- age and honesty, qualities that will carry a man through any crisis!' said the banker.
 Thank yoo!" the editor replied in a weak voice.
 Don't; should thank you, because you have taught me good lesson. You are going to win out here and I want to help | you along Here is a note at the bank for | sf, ,000O. I have endorsed it, and if you need more call on me and you can get it. Mill | town is going to boom and do it honestly" Banker Perkins was gone without wait | ing for word of thanks, and when I went out to the composing room to help | fold the edition Editor Jones was wiping l his eyes on a sheet of copy paper. The crisis in the affairs of the Milltown Watch | man was past.

 Swamp-Root corrects inability to hold wa ter and promptly overcomes that unpleas- ant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day and to get up many times during the night.
 Swamp-Root Is the great medical triumph of the nineteenth century; discovered after years of untiring effort and research hv the eminent kidney and bladder specialist Dr. Kilmer, and can be purchased at any drug store in fifty-cent or one-dollar bottles. Make note of the name, SWAMP-ROOT Dr. Kilmers Swamp-Root, and remember it is prepared only by Dr. Kilmer & Co.,. Bng- hampton, N Y.
 You can test for yourself its wonderful merits free by sending your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,. Binghampton, N r., up- on receipt of which a sample bottle to- gether with valuable book on the sub ject. will be mailed you absolutely free. This book contains some of the thousands upon thousands of testimonial letters re- ceived from sufferers cured.
 Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-R Root is so remarka- bly, successful that our readers are advised to write for free sample bottle, and to state that they read this generous offer in the Birmingham Daily Age-Herald.
