EARLY METHOD OF COUNTING
System in Use Up to Some Six Gen.
turtles Ago Was Primitive
to a Degree.

Multiplication, addition. subtraction
and division-common grades OF
schools today-were problems that
stumped the great majority of people
up until six centuries ago. Then
when numbers ran into three figures
or more the good peasants were
stumped. Multiplication was done on
the fingers-that is, what was done.
When the sums got to be larger than
five times 1--WE, the corner saloon was
resorted to. Here the counter used
q large checker board. Checker
boards grew to be the sign of the
saloon.
When counting by hand, the counter
let the open hand represent the num-
Der five; the hand with one finger
closed, six; with two fingers closed
seven: with three fingers closed, eight,
and four fingers closed, nine. To null
tiply. he used one hand TO represent
the multiplier. and the other the sum
TO be multiplied
The system Of counting on checker
boards was some hing similar to the
system OF counting on a Chinese
abaeus or counting board.

Dogs Feet for Lunch.

Men have been known to eat but
terfiies, white ants, frogs, June bugs.
white mice dipped in honey, mole soup,
birds nests, locusts, snails, cooked
chrysanthemums, and so on.
In the island of Formosa dogs feet
are considered a great delicacy. Peo-
pie who read this may be Mortified,
forgetting that they like pigs feet
themselves, to say nothing of ox-tail
soup and calves brains!
In this country we employ bees only
as manufacturers of honey, but in
Guiana, when a negro Is stung by a
bee, he proceeds to catch as many Of
the insects as he can and devour them

The natives of Ceylon hold torch

them home. and boil and eat them.

FEW REAL BAD CHARACTERS
played by Some Men Toward
Their Fellow Creatures.

There are men that We dislike at
sight; they have a streak of mean
ness or brutality or something that
we recognize instinctively; the best
we can do with them is to treat them
with ciyility. But there are not many
such; the vast majority of men have
good in them and are entitled to be
treated as brother men, writes "Mr
Gosington' in the New York Herald.

men high and low qualities most I'M

You never can tell what any man
has in his heart. The street sweeper
is as likely to dream dreams as the
banker. The poor man may be by ma
ture as refined as the rich man; and
barring the few men instinctively bru-
tai, who may be high or who may be
low. all men are entitled TO be met
az men and to be treated with cour-
tesy; not merely with kindness, but
with courtesy. which all men are
pleased TO receive and the lack of
which all men resent.
OF this we may be sure, that as we
go through life we get what we give.

GREAT WASTE DUE TO RUST

Religious Services Held in
Remembrance on Armi-

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, November 11.-On the
stroke of the hour marking the third
anniversary Of the armistice in the
world war London today paused in
mute two-minute testimony to the
nations grateful remembrance Of the
victory and reverent tribute to the
fallen.
A few minutes before II o'clock all
vehicular traffic was diverted from
Whitehall. Picadilly Circus, Stock
Exchange place, Trafalgar Square and
other public open spaces. Into these
places crowded great concourses OF
people. AS the hour approached the
Help In Ages Past" and then. at the
sounding Of maroons in the distance,
initiating the booming of guns. hats
were raised. flags went to half mast
and every head was reverently bowed
in a stiffness broken only by stided
sob from woman here ana there
among the quiet masses.
Throughout the city every wheel
had stopped turning at the signal, and
all activities were suspended.
I'm Financial District.
In the bustling financial district.
just before the hour struck, the tapes
licked OF the request: prepare to DO
honor to the glorious dead" and here
as elsewhere there was a total ces-
sation Of business.
AS the ending of the two minutes
Of tribute was signaled. buglers sta.
toned at prominent points sounded
the last post"
The crowds remained motionless un-
til God Save the King" was played
Then the whirr Of motors. the clat-
ter Of hoofs and the moevment of
pedestrians was resumed.
The observance of the day centered
about the cenotaph in Whitehall,
where representatives \of King
George, Prime Minister Lloyd George
and all the members of the cabinet.
together with delegations from the
dominions and portions Of the en-
pire added wreaths to the hundreds
already resting on the base OF the
empty tomb. Throughout the day
! lines of those who desired to pay tri-
butte passed four abreast by the
flower -burdened monument.
Ceremonies Over Nation.
Religious and other ceremonies
comm memorating the day were held
throughout the country. In Westmin-

National Commander MacNider of
the American Legion has addressed
the following Armistice day message
to all departments, posts and MEM
bers of the legion:

day it is fitting that we pause and do
honor to the heroic dead, those glori-
GUS lads of ours who made this day
possible-one Of rejoicing for the
whole world.
November. II. 1918, should not
mean the end Of our service to our
country, but the beginning. We Of
the American Legion have pledged
ourselves to those buddies Of ours
who will never como back to carry
on the battle for the principles for
which they died.
I'VE feel that would be their wish.
and our inspiration shall be the
thought Of them and those of our
comrades who are disabled and sick
and who must live the war forever.

HERO TURNS j. s. TO
< RELIGIOUS FERVOR
Washington Is Swayed by
Surge of Feeling Rarely
Known Before.
BY WILLIAM +. ELLIS.

Not leayt Of the wonders wrought by
the unknown soldier is his having
turned the American nation to religion
more effectively than any preacher or
evangelist has ever done. There is no
parallel, in this or any other country,
for the general and simultaneous OBJ
servance Of today by a religious rite. BY
direction Of the President, the burial of
the nations hero is recognized by the
peoples pausing to pray, while all
wheels are stopped and all activities
cease.
The thing Is dramatic, stupendous. On
the first 'Armistice day every form of
noise-making activity and Of public
publication was stimulated. This year
silence and worship are prescribed.
AS an evidence of the extent of the
public, formal and community observ-
ence Of Armistice day by religious ex-
ercises, an official of the Federal Coun-
Gil Of Churches says that its general
offices have had to abandon any at
tempt to keep a record of even the
civic services reported to it by the
thousand. Evidently every city, town
and village in the United States is to-
dey holding some sort Of religious serv-
ices, all religious bodies participating.

tian leaders in many foreign lands, in
cluding China and Japan, have like

Such a surge of feeling is breaking
upon Washington these days as has
rarely been known before, and its
outstanding note is religious. Appar-
emily the people want peace measures

These women who had come to the
