Chinese Arithm etic.

The Chinese rejoice in q wonderful
talent for inaccuracy In every detail
For instance. a pound or pint varies
as It suits the merchants fancy. In
some part you get half or quarter
as much as you do in others for the
same price and measure.
Then. again. their way of calculating
distance does not at all tally with Eu.
clid. For instance. you are told from
A to B Is four miles. but from to A
is eight miles. II you ask how this Is
possible. you are told it depends from
which end you start; If you start from
A, 1t Is down hill. so much easier to
walk; whereas, starting from B. you
have to walk up bill, which Is much
more exerting and fatiguing-in fact
it Is the same as walking longer dis
tance on even ground.
This form Of argument always anus
ed me nearly as much as the way the
Chinese have Of counting a persons

Brit's father lived with his son. He
came from Virginia. Brit himself
either came from Virginia or had his
father to live with him long enough to
get the art Of raising tobacco, for Brit
raised the best homegrown tobacco
ever used in my life. Brits father
lived to be 113 years old. The day he
died he took two bushels Of wheat on
horseback and went to mill. Returning
home, he took off the turn, put 1t away,
and put up the horse. He then got his
axe, passed on by the spring and went
to chopping wood short distance be-
yond. The folks at the house heard
the sound of the axe and heard tree
fall. After this they heard the axe no
more. Upon going out to see, they
found the old man lying across the fall
len tree, dead. His axe was sticking
in the log by him. He had died sudden
ly with only warning enough to permit
him thus to place his axe.
