An Old 0ne.

Here is a little problem which
was gotten up by a man who must
have a memory longer than a
Philadelphia lawyer. Take the
number between one and nine.
Add one. Multiply by nine.
Drop the left hand or first figure
of the two comprising the result.
Add fourteen. Add the original
number. The answe is TWENTY
three Just why the answer is al
ways twenty three Irrespective of
the number originally selected, is
the obvious but the stubborn fact
remains that it is twenty three.
You can take one, two, three,
five, six, seven, eight or nine
and the answer is always the
same.--Ex.

What is the Time?

Just now you looked at your
watch. Some one saw you and
asked you the time. You could
not tell and had to look again in
order to state the minute. When
you first looked you probably
noted the hour but not the exact
minute. You CLAN led at your
watch the first time in a general
Way and in a negative state of
mind, merely to observe that the
hour you had in mind for some
action had not passed, or that
you had so much more time to
spare, but you did not observe the
precise time because you did not
need to do SO for your purpose.
Your mental state was like your
power of light with which you can
take things into vision in a gen.
eral way, or can fix your vision
attentively and intensively upon
some n spot and obtain precise
knowledge Of it. It would be a
good habit to cultivate always to
note the exact time when one
looks at his watch, and be able to
state it when asked. This power
of attention can be developed by
even a little practise, until it be.
comes a habit that makes n we'll
informed. Houdin, the celebrat-
ed magician, cultivated the pow
er of comprehensive and close at
tention SO that in going by a store
window, a mere glance gave him
knowledge of every object in sight,
and he could give the list fully
and perfectly. Attention is the
mother of memory and the grand
mother of neutrality-suspicious.

CuIiCide.

Now that summer and mosqui-
toes are upon us, it is interesting
to read and gloat over schemes
for destroying the winged tor
mentors and disease carriers by
the thousand. Among the most
efficient and least troublesome
culicides is the one devised by
Prof. Minis, of New Orleans, that
consists of a mixture of carbolic
acid and camphor, vaporized with
the heat of q lamp. The doors
aud windows, of a room troubled
with mosquitoes or flies are to be
closed and the mixture eyaporat-
ed, when, after all interval of
twenty MI utes, the room may be
entered with safety. The floor
will be covered with dead insects.
If one window is left with the
shade up while other shades are
drawn down, the mosquitoes will
be found on the floor under the
lighted window. The carbolic
acid crystals and camphor are
mixed in equal weights and plac-
ed in an ordinary granite wash
basin to he evaporated. An al
cohol lamp gives the heat, being
ing surrounded by a piece of stove
pipe eight inches high aud six
inches in diameter. Near the top
end of the pipe IA inch holes are
punched, and near the bottom
pieces are cut to admit the air.
The lamp for safety, is set in a
tin pan containing IL inch Of
water. AS the camphor may
catch fire spontaneously if incau-
tiously heated, some supervision
is necessary to prevent overheat-
ing. The evaporation takes but
twenty minutes and is effective.
Sulphur acts as quickly, but it's
fumes last longer and injure fab
RIGS. Pyrethrum costs more and
must be burned two hours. Eight
ounces of the culicide is the max.
imum quantity to use at M
time, being sufficient to clear a
room of 1000 feet capacity. The
method may be troublesome, but
the harvest of flies and mosqui-
toes swept up after the job is
completed, amply compensate fer
all the labor.-Haltimore Sun.

Attacks Printing Office.

While the senate was engaged
today in waiting upon the house
for engrossed bills, Senator Hale
explained that the delay was due
to the government printing office,
He said that office had shown
lack of competency to handle the
business and that congress should
take steps at another session to
remedy the defects. Speaking of
the printing cffice, Mr.. Hale ex-
pressed the thought that possibly
the new administration there is
too much concerned with its own
views and had not sufficiently
taken iuto account the urgent de-
mands of congress. He had, he
said, been informed that errors
had been found in each new copy
of the public buildings bill that
had been received. Altogether,
the situation had been most I'M
satisfactory and he hoped that
congress would never again have
the same experience. Senator
Cullom mentioned the illness of
the public printer as ar explana-
ton of the bad conditions in his
office.-Washington dispatch.
