Origin of Mathematical signs.

Tho sign Of addition rs dedved from
the initial letter of the word plus"
In making the capital letter 1t was
made more and more careiessly until
the top part Of the "p" was finally
placed near the center; hence the plus
sign, as we know it. was gradually
reached.
The sign of subtraction was derived
from the word minus" The word was
first contracted In m. n. 8. with hori-
zontal line above to indicate that some
of the letters had been left out. at last
the letters were omitted altogether,
leaving only the short line.
The multiplication sign was obtained
by changing the plus sign into the let
ter tx" This was done because mul.
upiication Is but a shorter form of adj
d1ton.
Division was formerly indicated by
placing the dividend above horizontal
tine and the divisor below. In order to
save space in printing the dividend was
placed to the left and the dlvisor to the
right After years of evolution" the
two IDS" were omitted altogether, and
simple dots set IN the place Of each, As
with the others. the radical sign was
derived from the initial letter Of the
word ''radix."

In the year 1867 by sharp matheIna'

S. A. L. Headed This Way.

Says the Knoxville Sentinel:
"The Seaboard Air Line, or parties
backed by that road, have begun the
construction of an extension of the
Carolina & Northwestern Railway from
Lenoir, N. G., toward Roam mountain,
which is reported to be the first step of
an extension to Bristol, Tenn. A large
force has gone to grading at Lenoir and
every indication is that there is to be
rush work. The twenty-five miles of
road proposed at present will carry the
line to the Tennessee state line, and ii
will be necessary to get an additional
charter for the Tennessee work. Re-
ports are circulated that the Virginia &
Southwestern Railway is planning to
build additional lines. 1t is now ex.
pected that the Seaboard Air Line and
the Virginia & Southwestern are CO.
operating, and that the latter will build
to meet the extension from Lenoir."
