Old school Replies.

Sir:-"Arithmetic,'' in to-day's edi-
ton cannot have studied arithmeitcs
very well.
To ascertain the three-ffths neces-
sary for the adoption of the ordinance,
the total number of the legal votes
must be taken, which, less IL votes
thrown out, was 5176.
Three-ffths of these, not counting
fractions, would be 3,105, and as only
2,947 votes were cast in favor of the
ordinance, the same was defeated by
15S votes. Yours, Truly,
OLD SCHOOL.
Wheeling, W Va. February 81, 1900.
["Old School, has fallen into the
same error that has deluded other
mathematicians.
He has taken three-ffths of the to-
tai vote, 5,176, resulting 3,106, from
which he has deducted the vote for
ratification, 2,947, claiming that the
difference, 159, is the number OF votes
short OF ratification, forgetful of the
fact that the number of votes for re-
lection 2.229, is more than two-fifths
Of the total vote cast.
The following is probably a simple
and lucid way of arriving at the num-
Der of additional required to have
passed the ordinance, viz:
The law required that to be APPROX
ed by the voters, it must have three
fifthS of the votes cast, that is for
every five votes cast, it Is necessary
that three be for ratification, to two
for rejection; or in other words there
must be one-half as many votes for as
there are against.
There were 2.229 votes for rejection,
to have carried it was therefore nee
essary that there be 3.344 votes for rat
ification--There being but 2.947 for
ratification, the ordinance was 397
votes short Of the number required Tor

Hid Her Face for Life.

When in the little Baptist church
at Bridgeton, \. j., on Wednesday,
the form of Rebeccs Newcomb reposed
in a coffin ready for burial it was the
first time any of her neighbors had
gazed upon her face in two-score years.
In all that time she has lived the lite
of rigid recluse. 1t began with a
little love affair forty years ago, when
Rebecca Newcomb, the comely and
sprightly daughter of one Of the most
prosperous farmers in the county, his
farm lying between Newport and Ce-
darville, was wooed and won by a gay
and dashing young man from the city.
Size gave her whole heart to him and
believed that he was all that maid
ems heart could desire.
The wedding day was set and many
daintily worked garments were pre-
pared for the event, and many details
arranged for the ceremony. But one
day there came an awakening. The
country lass discovered that her dash
ing lover was false that he had sim
ply toyed with her heart and had
cruelty deceived her.
The maiden quickly put away the
dainty garments, steeled herself to the
blow and vowed that she would never
again permit her face to be seen by
man.
From that time to the day Of her
death she lived the life of a recluse at
the old farmhouse. At the death of
Ter parents, eighteen or twenty years
ago, Rebecca and brother were left
well provided for financially, and 1t
became necessary for Rebecca to visit
the county seat on business connected
with the will. This she did in the
most quiet manner, and those who
saw her only thought Of her as a stran-
ger. 1t is claimed that was her only
visit from her home in all these years.
A few years ago she built another
house on the farm so that her brother
might live there instead of in the
house with her. The house has for
more than aquarter Of century been
pointed out as containing the woman
who would not let any one see her.

The Power of Forgiveness.

The power Of forgiveness even for an
ofense against human law is we'll IL
lustrated in the following incident
A soldier was about to be brought
before his commanding officer for some
ofense. He was an old offender, and
had often been punished. Here he
is again, said the officer, on his name
being mentioned, "aogging, disgrace,
solitary confinement, everything has
been tried on him" Whereupon the
sergeant stepped forward, and, apOI-
ogizing for the liberty, said: There
is one thing that has never been done
with him yet, sir. ="
"What is that" said the officer.
"WeIl, sir, said the sergeant, che
has never been forgiven"
Forgiven I" exclaimed the col
onel, surprised at the suggestion. He
reflected few minutes, ordered the
culprit to be brought in, and asked
him what he had to say to the charge.
Nothing sir, was the reply, "only
l am sorry for what have done.
Turning kind and pitiful look on
the man, who expected nothing else
than that his punishment would be
increased with the repetition of the
offense, the colonel addressed him. say
ing, "Well, we have tried everything
with you, and now we have resolved
to-forgiye you.
The soldier was struck dumb with
amazement the tears started in his
eyes, and he wept like child He
was humbled to the dust, and, thank
ing his officer, he retired-to be the
old refractory, incorrigible man? No,
from that day forward he was a new
man. He who told the story had him
for years under his eye, and a better
conducted man never wore the
Queens colors.

Sorrow as Our Teacher.

Men who spend much and hazard
much in quest Of knowledge often
raise their hands in amazement at the
"inscrutable Providence" that loads
the human heart with sorrow. There
is something here which they do not
find in their university courses
something not taught in the common
textbook or in the philosophers lab
oratory. Only in the school Of conse-
Grated sorrow does sorrow justify it
self. He who has never lived under
its disciplinary curriculum is not full
ly educated for the battle Of life.
Byron testifes that sorrow is knowl-
edge" What it costs stands for It's
true value.

The Human Eye.

Science gives US interesting details
about what the human eye has been
and what it may become. The most
ancient documents of India attest that
at times most remote only two colors
were known, blackand red. a long time
escaped before the eye could perceive
the color yellow, and a still longer
time before green could be distin-
guished. At the time of Alexander
the Great the Greek painters knew but
four colors-white, black, red and
yellow. The words to designate blue
and violet were unknown to the
Greeks in the most ancient times Of
their history, they calling these colors
gray and black. 1t is thus the colors
in the rainbow were only distinguished
gradually,and the great Aristotle only
knew four of them. 1t is well
known fact that when the colors Of a
prism are photographed there remains
outside the limit Of the blue and vio-
let in the spectrum distinct impress
sion which our eyes do not recognize
as color. Psychologists tell us that
it is reasonable to suppose that as the
color organ becomes more highly de-
veloped, and even as the human eye
becomes perfect, this outside band
will develop into a color perfectly dis
cernihle

Maxims For Married People.

Let your wife show and prove she
loves you, but never let her tell it
to you. On the contrary, tell her all
day long, if you choose she Will new
er tire of hearing you telling her,
If your wife loses her temper, keep
cool as a cucumber and enjoy the
scene. The effect will be marvellous
and instantaneous.
you are of jealous disposition
take all the precautions in the world
that your wife may not see it, for it
will make her 50 proud that she may
give you serious reasons for indulging
in it. If you are suspicious, be a
diplomatist and hide it from her, for
if she does not deserve your suspicion
she will naturally resent it, and ifshe
does, it will only make hypocrite of
her.
Quarrel with your wife, but never
bore her. Never idget, never fuss
and never sulk. If she is late keep
ing an appointment, don't scold, don t
make yourself unpleasant. Tell her
it's much better to have her late than
not at all. Next time go without her.
The cure is infallible.
If she is late coming down, take it
for granted that she is trying to look
her best for you. Feel fattered and
show your gratitude. Remember that
the modern coming woman is the one
who says she Will be ready in 10 min
utes. Laugh at it, make fun of it,
crack a joke on it, but never let
woman suppose that in your manly
grandeur you can lose your temper,
even your equanimity for such trihes
