Wonderful Calculator.

Although calculating machines
have been known since the time Of
Leibnitz, some two centuries ago,
the autarith of Rechnitzer, a young
Viennese mechanician, seems to be
the first apparatus capable of work
ing out unaided any ordinary prob
lem in addition, subtraction, multi
plication or division. While simple
in construction, the working of the
mechanism is not easily described,
because each part performs several
functions. The numbers are set
down by moving buttons up and
down slots until opposite the figures
in order, and when the two num-
bers to be multiplied, for instance,
are thus arranged in two rows,
large button is moved to the notch
marked Multiplication" The ma
chine, driven by a motor or a
weight, soon shows the figures of
the product, stopping with the large
button at a notch marked "Off."
Some Of the devices, such as that
for carrying tens, are said to be
quite new, and some processes, like
that Of trying quotient and chang
ing for another if too large, show a
marvellous development Of automat-
ic reasoning.

Spring AiIments.

There is an aching and tired feel
ing; the liver, bowels and kidneys
become sluggish and inactive, the
digestion impaired, with little or no
appetite, no ambition for anything,
and feeling that the whole body
and mind needs toning up. The
trouble is, that during winter,
there has been an accumulation of
waste matter in the system. Her
bine will remove it, secure to the
secretions a right exit, and by its
tonic effect, fully restore the vast
ed tissues and give strength in
place of weakness. SOC at h. c.

GREATLY ALARMED
By Persistent Cough, But Per-
manently Cured by Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy.

Mr. II. p. Burbage, student at
law, IN Greenvllle, S. o., had been
troubled for four or FIVE years with
a continuous cough which ne says,
greatly alarmed me, causing me
to fear that l was in the first stage
OF consumption. Mr.. Burbage,
having seen Chamberlain s Cough
Remedy advertised, concluded to
try it. Now read what he says of
it: 81 soon felt remarkable

In almost every neighborhood

SIDEWALK AUCTIONS.
An 0ld-Time Custom That Still Sur
wives in Washington.

wives in Washington.
"There is one custom of the old
days still preserved in modern
Washington which might be ban
ished to advantage, as it has in
other large cities, and that is the
custom Of holding auctions Of
household goods, furniture, mer-
chandise, carts, carriages and vehi-
Giles of all sorts upon our sidewalks
and Streets" rmarked a police Of
fetal the other morning to Star
man.
"The custom of ringing bells,
proclaiming by crier that an auction
is. about to take place, showing
red flag and displaying the articles
to be sold to the public gaze upon
thoroughfares has been handed
down to the present generation, and
originated centuries ago before the
advent Of the newspaper.
I'm the days before newspapers
this manner of attracting the atten-
ton Of the public was the only one
followed, but nowadays the resi-
dents of any large community con
suit the classified advertisements in
the columns Of the local press to
ascertain the days upon which suc-
tions are held and where held, and
the bell, the crier and the street
obstructing display of goods have
been RELOCATED out of existence
nearly everywhere in cities.
For hours at time on several
days OF the week the sidewalks Of
several Of the capitals most promi-
nent thocoughIares are Uttered
from curb to house line with the
goods in all varieties for the inspec-
ton Of the public, and during the
sale conducted on the sidewalk the
! passage Of pedestrians is seriously
Iimpeded, while in the case of the
sale Of 20 or 80 vehicles collected
in the street, traffic is interfered
with. Such sales cam be conduct
ed in buildings much better than
on the payumeu5, and the reguIa-
/ tions ought to be amended to meet
the times and the growth Of the
city.
"The business Of adjoining mer-
chants is seriously interfered with
on the days in question, the vehicles
exposed for sale being lined up in
front Of their premises as well as
those where the auction is in prog
ress, often remaining there for over
a half a day, preventing the dis
patch and delivery Of merchandise
of the adjoining firms. There are
many other objections to the prac-
tice.
complaints made to the police
of this interference Of business are
necessarily met with the reply that
since there is no ordinance prohib-
iting the taking Of the public side
walks and pavements for the con-
duct of a private business, if it is
the auction business, no relief can
be afforded until the regulations
are changed.
of through custom, reinforced
by ordinance, one class Of business
be accorded special privileges in the
sale and display of merchandise
upon the public thoroughfares, it
is hard to reconcile the principle
why other businesses are not SIM
ilarly favored, yet, as to other bust
nesses the law is very strict against
the use of the sidewalks for the
purpose Of displaying goods. Side
walks in cities at best are none too
wide for the convenient passage of
pedestrians, and were it not that
city authorities jealousy guard the
pubhc's rights along these lines, the
serious obstruction thereof would
result"

Mr.. John 0. Kemp, Of Acworth, a

Marietta Tuesday to see about the will

streets to mingle with his friends and
was standing talking to Mr.. John D.
White, who had his leg amputated
some months ago. He was sympathiz-
ing with Mr.. White in his loss and
questioning him very particularly about
the difficulties he had to undergo in
having only one leg. He remarked, at

leg and not a railroad man. | had

His hand caught the rung of the ladder
all right, but his foot missed landing
and he was dragged some distance, and

his right leg was thrown on the track,
the rear wheels passing over the leg
and crushing it into Jelly.
Mr.. Kemp was picked up and carried

Mr. Kemp is young man about 80
