And this is all to be done trough tho
investment of the munifIcent sum OF
$4,000. His idea is to place at interest
$4,000, TO be divided into four parts.
The first $1,000 is to draw interest for
~ Years, and then to be distributed on
Ludl"w's 200th birthday among the good
young men and deserving poor Of the
town. At 3k per cent interest this
fund will have increased to 9,s75. The
second 81, 900 will remain on interest for
another century, and at the end OF 166
years be devoted to a similar purpose.
This fund at the same rate of interest
will then I'VE reached $317 ,26s.
But there is more yet to come. for the
third 81, 600 will be rapidly accumulate

the end of 266 years. or 2174, will have
reached $40. 1873, 1876. Isl also to be

The fourth 81. 900 is to be,placed at in

How Leap Year Cheats Hard Workers.

How leap Year Cheats Hard Workers.
London Mail Docs 1t ever occur to
people that leap year may, and Gener-

Those wage earrers who are paid ey-
cry Friday or Saturday suffer nothing,
because they are paid for the extra day
they have to live during the year. But
those In receipt of monthly or quarter
iy checks for salary, are different, for
they lose the payment for the extra
days work.
Employers are naturally fCrBetful OF
such little matters, and employees are
not SO long sighted as they might be,
If We may Judge from The fact that
when engagements are entered into and
contracts inade for Il term of years no
account is taken of that extra. day in
leap year.
A simple calculation shows that "a

American Girls on Horseback.

A French riding master who has
been taching in a New York riding
academy for two years has announced
his intention Of returning to France,
according to the Sun. Il know my
business from A to H." he said, but I
haven't had luck with my pupils here.
1t is The hardest thing in the world
TO teach an American girl to ride
THAT is strange" remarked an ac-
quaintance. american girls are grace
full and they don't know what fear
Is" That is just The trouble" h
Frenchman explained. 1T is because
they're not afraid that they don't learn
to ride properly. A girl Of any other
nationality on earth is too timid to go
her w gait. Through fear she obeys
the riding master implicitly. and in
time becomes a perfect horsewoman;
but the American girl, because she
doesn't fear horse, man or the devil,
dashes away, lickety split. and in the
end brings discredit upon the best
riding master alive"
