It is not enough to be simple good, ob

something. Similar, it la not sufficient for
a religion to bo good in itself— to possess
admirable laws, customs and traditions,
and a history of surpassing interest—it
must be good for something to day, it
must take its part in to day’s drama of hu-
mauity, and do its share to bless mid
brighten mankind.—The Jewish Messen

let suffering humanity know it. Have had
a running sore on my leg lor eight years; my

bone scraped or leg amputated. I used,
Instead, three bottles of Electric Bitters
and seven boxes of Buokleft’s Arnica
Salvo, and my leg is now sound and well.”

NU'MBEKS. -
The Benson Why Ten is u favorite Numeral.
The reason why ten is a favorite—per
haps the most favorite—number is obvious
enough, namely, that we have ten tinkers.
When we begin to count we almost of ne
cessity do so with our lingers; if we have a
large number of things to count, say a
flock of sheep, we instinctively divide
them into tens, or perhaps scores; if the
number of thing's be very large the collec
tion of tens are naturally grouped again by-
teas, and so we have hundreds. A further
grouping of hundreds leads to thousands,
and so forth. Thus we get the ordinary
system of numeration, und there can bo no
manner of doubt that man’s ten fingers are
the root of it. Wo are told
in treatises on arithmetic that
it would have been much more
convenient if we had ag-eed to count by
twelves instead of by tens: and possibly
this may be true. But, if it lie, we have so
much the more evidence, if evidence be
needed, that the basis of the system of
counting was not determined by theoret
ical considerations, but by the simple ele
mentary fact of the number of human
digits being 10 and not 22. Nevertheless
12 has its turn as a favorite number; we
often count by dozens, and the roiison
probably is that 12 permits of being quar
tered as well as halved, which is in ninny
cases an advantage. Take the case of wine:
A dozen bottles is a convenient quantity
to take as a standard, because a customer
can order half the standard number, or, if
he needs a small quantity, a quarter of the
same; iu fact, 12 admits of being divided
not only by 2 aud 4, but also
by 3 and 0, which for many pur
poses give it a great advantage over
iO, which can be divided only by 2 aud 6,
the latter division being rarely of any use
Hence the grout divisibility of 12 is stiffl
eient to mark it os a favorite number; but
In the most notnble instance of its use
namely, as making the number of months
in a year, wo need some further explana
tion. The renl month, thnt is, the number
of days between two successive full moons,
may lie taken as measured by 28 days.
Thirteen times 28 makes 364, or as nearly
as may be, one year. Consequently ft
would have been iniioh more nearly true
to say that 13 months make a year than
12. The explanation is to be found, I con
ceive, is tlie extremely awkward charac
ter of t he number 13 ; it Is what is called by
mathematicians a prime number, that is
to say it admits of no division of any ; had
there been 13 months in the year the half
year and the quarter alike could not
nave been reckoned by months, and
consequently 12, which, as already
explained, is one of the most convenient
of numbers in the numbers in the matter
of divisibility, was encouraged and per
mitted to usurp the place which in all
strictness belonged to its next-door neigh
bor. There is a somewhat parallel cose
with regard to the division of the circle
into 3(10 degrees. The ancient Chinese
mathematicians divided the circle into
8661 degrees, corresponding to the length
of the year, or 3651 days, which number,
though not exact, is very near the truth.
But this division of t he circle is practically
interminable; it would throw mathema
ticians into despair; consequently the num
ber 360, which admits of being divided by
4, by 60, by 00, and by many other num
bers, usurped the place which the Chinese
righteously assigned to the awkward num
ber which nature suggested.
