Our System of Notation.

Some system OF notation has been
used since time out of memory.
The first record We have OF it is of
figures written With stick ON flat
surface covered with sand Before
that all calculations were made with
pebbles, beans and the like. Even
now the Chinese DO their calculating
with little stones or beads strung
on wires, in Il frame. The Romans
first used vertical lines Il, II, III,
c.-to express numbers. The Ara
bic figures, which we commonly use
at the present time, are OF much
earlier date Tho Arabic system IS
chiefly valuable on account OF the
great convenience it affords by CIV
ing figure value according to the
place it occupies in the line. BY
this system the most enormous sums
can be expressed by the ten little
characters which form the nu1ncr-
ical alphabet
