Where Ciphers Count.

A peculiar and perplexing problem
is offered by the kirkland Enterprise
in the following: A friend asks us
to multiply S. by S.. We do so, and
announce the result of SIS. Now
multiply 500 cents by 500 cents, give
the answer in cents pure and simple,
not as fractional parts of a dollar.
We do so, and are surprised to see
the figures climb up to 100000 cents,
which is $4,000. AS IS and 500
cents are equivalent, the result is
puzzIing. 1t cannot be argued that
decimal marks should be used. A
cent, as such, is as distinct a unit as
a dollar, and as the result is to be
announced in cents, the decimal can
not be pleaded in extenuation of the
rather surprising result. But there
is clearly something wrong. Can any
reader explain it?
It is very easy of explanation, says
THE Dallas News" When you have
S. and multiply it by S you have SIS
in real money. When you accumulate
500 pennies and multiply them by
500 you have $4,000 worth of sub
sidiary coinage. The reason it is so
much better to have 500 times 500
cents than five times IS in the same
as because one is more fortunate in
having a lot of money than little

Will Spot The Speeder.

A clever camera-like device design
ed to record accurately the rate of
speeding automobiles will be well
coined alike by automobiles and
officials of the law.
AS described by "The Scientific
American the machine consists in
large part of a camera with two
lenses so arranged that the second
hand of watch is also included in
the picture. The first exposure shows
the automobile close at hand with
the number on the rear axle. The
second exposure shows the machine
farther away. With the distance
from the lens to the plate known N
each case and the time shown in the
same picture it can be shown abso-
lutely how fast the machine was go
ing.
With the elimination of all guess
work by the driver or the policeman
by such evidence, convictions of speed
violations will be more frequent. The
machine can be used to good advan-
tage on crowded city streets because
of the short distance required for its
operation.
The majority of automobiles will
welcome this device as one of the
agencies in the elimination of the
minority which persists in violating
law, to the discredit of the whole
Class.-Et. Paul Dispatch.

WHAT REAL POVERTY MEANS.

WHAT REAL POV ERl MEANS.
While exploring the city of Damas-
Gus on a gloomy evening, a young
American paused where two alleys
met, and CHANGED to observe a glow
of light in the shadows near by. Fur
ther examination proved that it came
from the heating furnace of one of
the baths of the city. In Going
Down From Jerusalem" Mr.. Norman
Duncan tells the pathetic little history
revealed by his investigation.
The light issued from the end OF
the lane, which terminated in an I'M
derground chamber, to which it fell
by way of broken stairway of broad
stones
Here was an old man, as instantly
appeared from the quality of his
voice, being lifted timidly to demand
what presence disturbed him; an old.
old man, lying outstretched on his
belly upon heap of chopped straw

thrusting the straw through the aper-
ture, a handful at time, so that IL
fell, a continuous stream, upon the
fire below. The old man was lying

Baby SIeepless With Awful Itching

when our baby was seven weeks
old he broke out with what we
thought was heat, but which gradual
ly grew worse We called in a doctor.
He said it was eczema and from that
time we doctored six months with
three of the best doctors in Atchson
but he only got worse. His face, head
and hands were a solid sore. There
was no end to the suffering for him.
We had to tie his little hands to keep
him from scratching. He never knew
what it was TO sleep we'll from the
time he took the disease until he was
cured. He kept us awake all hours
of the night and his health wasn't
what you would call good. We tried
everything but the right thing.

Remedies and ] am pleased to say
we did not use all of them until he
was cured. We have waited a year

Diplomacy And Lying.

Sir Henry Wotton's definition of an
ambassador as IAN honest man sent
to lie abroad for the good of his
country which was quoted by Pro-
fessor Pollard in his address on "Poli-
tics and Character"-was destined to
cost its author dear. 1t was written
in a friends ALBUMIN at Augsburg in
1904. Eight years afterward Casper
Scioppius, a Jesuit controversialist,
used it as an argument against the
honor and integrity of James L. in
a Latin attack on the King.
James was very angry and demand
ed an apology from Wotton. This
was promptly forthcoming, but the
offense does not appear to have been
overlooked, and, according to Mr.. L.
Pearshall Smith, Wotton's latest bio
grapher, it was not till nearly year
later that the eX-Ambassador "had
hopes of public employment" 1t
should be borne in mind that the
epigram in its English form-it was
originally written in Latin-is really
a pun. the verb Ito lie" having in
those times the same meaning as
to sleep.'-London Daily News.

Tin holds chief place in Slams
metal resources, and is found
throughout the Siamese portion of
the Malay Peninsula. The average
annual production is about $40
tons, valued at 1000. English
mining companies and the Chinese
are the chief workers for tin. Gold
stands second to tin in the country's
mineral resources, but so far its
workings has not proved profitable.
Copper and lead mines have also
proved a failure. Transportation
cost is enormous, but railways are
being extended north and south.

Use OF KEROSENE.

Kerosene will tighten house
work, as there are few depart
nents where it cannot be used
to advantage. Try it the next
time you clean silver. Wet bit OF
flannel with it and rub discolorations
vigorously, then polish with mix
ture of kerosene and whiting. Two
tablespoonfuls Of kerosene in basin
of cold water will clean windows in
half the time. Dry with tissue paper
or a soft cloth. Porcelain-lined sinks
and bathtubs are cleaned instantly by
rubbing with flannel wet with kero-
sene. To keep linoleum, oil cloth,
hard wood and stained floors clean,
cover the broom with soft flannel and
moisten with kerosene. Keep one
broom. a soft bristle one, and tho
same cover can be used repeatedly.
Two tablespoonfuls in boiler of hot
water will aid in the quick whitening
of soiled clothes. A flannel just moist
ened with kerosene will keep mahog-
any furniture free from that ugly blue
look. 1t must be we'll rubbed in, and
a splendid polish for furniture is an
equal mixture of kerosene and boiled
linseed oil we'll shaken together; ap-
ply with q piece of soft flannel and
polish with clean piece.-Sylva
Grey, in the Boston Post.
CLEAN AND FRESHEN RIBBON.
Ribbon is first busted and then
iIoned between tissue paper.
To clean ribbon, mixture is 11ade
in the proportion of three ounces Of
soft soap, three tablespoonful of
honey, to a teacupful of gin and
water.
The ribbon is placed on a board
and scrubbed with the mixture. 1t
is then rinsed by dipping several
times in clean, cold water, and not
squeezed out, but hung over line
to drip, then put between two cloths
and irened by drawing the ribbons
from under the ron. This prevents
creasing and stringy appearance at
finish. The iron should be kept still
with pressure upon it.
White ribbons will not turn yellow
when washed if the water is warm,
not hot, and the soap used a fine
white quality. Rinse in three waters,
the last being a strong blue.
Hang in the sun until half dry, then
press under clean muslin with a warm
iron.
Black satin ribbons may be re-
newed by rubbing gently with vase
line
To wash colored ribbon, make a
strong lather of fine soap and cold
water; wash the ribbons and rinse
them several times, always in soapy
water, not clear water.
When partly dry, iron between thin
pieces of muslin, having the ribbon
perfectly smooth.
Ribbon interviewer with tinSel is
best cleaned with fine breadcrumbs
and powdered blue, then shaken and
rubbed with a clean cloth; tinsel OF
gold lace may be cleaned with am
monia
To dry clean lace give it dry bath
in -four. Put quart of flour into ?
basin, put in the lace, then rub and
squeeze it with the hand as if the
-four were water.
After the lace has received a good
shaking it will look as fresh as ever
