Turn round, and, with your back to
the table, ask somebody to throw the
dice. Then tell the person who threw
them to double the number of the spots
on the die on the left, and keep the
number to himself. Tell him to add
five, then multiply by five. To this fig
ure have him add the number of spots
on the die in the middle and multiply
the product by ten.
Then ask him to multiply the number
of spots on the third die and give you
the aggregate sum. From the amount
subtract mentally 250, and the remain
der will show In the three figures the
number of spots on each of the three
dice. For Instance, take three dice.
Their numbers are three, five and two.
Double the one on the left—five plus
five equals ten. Add five, equals fif
teen. Multiply by five, equals seventy-
live. Add the number of spots on the
die in the middle, three, equals seventy-

Add number of spots on the third die,
two, equals 782. Subtract 250 and 5112

Torn* of Food Fop the Atlantic.
Commenting on the tremendous
amount of food consumed on the aver
age Atlantic liner nowadays, a writer
in the Springfield Republican says: “At
8 mines the monumental breakfast; at
11 the deck steward fills up the coma
tose figures In the morgue with their
heel’ tea from those thick, obese Eng
lish cups; at 1 the magnanimous lunch
eon; at 5 the sleepers assaulted by the
d>*ck steward again; at 7 the awesome
English dinner; at VU'flo a trifling lunch
to ballast you for bed. Besides this liar-
baric mounds of sandwiches, olives,
cheese, crackers, perpetually stare you
In the face in the smoking room. Food,
food, food; th«* sight and smell of It
pursue the unwilling stomach in every
corner of the place; food tasted, wast
ed, thrown away. There* Is one port
hole on the steerage deck, from the
galley apparently, which belches It
forth in a continuous stream—half
loves of bread, great remnants of meat:
we have left a trail of it across the At
lantic. If some one would only esti
mate the tons of wasted food which
an* annually thrown into the Atlantic
or could calculate how much cheaper
these steamship companies could give
us our travel if they substituted plain,
self respecting fare for this gilded glut
tony, it would certainly be interesting
and worth while.

Young Mr. luswlm was hurrying
blindly along tbe street toward a chem
ist's with a bottle In his hand when
young lie Trop hailed him.
lie Trop —Hello, Inswim! I’ve
scarcely seen you for a year. Whore
have you been keeping yourself since
you were married?
Inswlm—Oh, busy—busy all the time.
I)e Trop—I say, what are you doing
mostly?
Inswlm—I’ve got a new profession,
lie Trop—What Is It?
Inswlm—Humorist.
Me Trop—You don’t say. I didn’t
think you were much In that line.
Inswlm—I'm not a very glittering
success.
Me Trop—What—er—whnt sort of
work do you do mostly?
And then young Mr. Inswlm leaned
over and whispered softly in young
Me Trop’s ear:
“I'm spending most of my time try
ing to humor & baby that’s engnged In

Then he plunged madly on again to
ward the southing sirup shop. — Lon

a fairly expensive luxury. To start

of ailments, and thjf, of course, neces
sitates further expense, for the treat

but cheap. Of course, no fancier ot

bird; he must have nt least a dozen,

Why tlie Audience Laughed.
At a public entertainment recently a
conjurer had an experience which was
highly comical, though quite disastrous
from a professional point of view.
Having produced an egg from a pre
viously empty bag, be announced that
he would follow up tills trick by bring
ing from the bag the hen that laid the
egg. This little arrangement he left to
his confederate to carry out. He pro
ceeded to draw the bird from the bag,
hut what was his surprise on finding
that the alleged hen was an ohl rooster,
which strutted about the stage with
rutiled feathers and offended dignity
and set up as vigorous a crowing ns If
It had just awakened from Its noctur
nal slumbers.
The whole audience shrieked with
laughter, nnd the unfortunate conjurer
made a bolt for the dressing room.

One of the most widely disseminated
f popular errors is that Mr. Ouillotin
luvouted the grim machine which still
hears the name. The real inventor of
this sinister contrivance was I>r.
Louis, n well known medical man and
permanent secretary of the Parisian
School of Medicine, or Academic do

Itr. Gulllotin, who died in 1814, ener
getically but vaiuly protested against
the use of his name in connection with
tills disagreeable subject—an evidence,
if one were wanted, of tbe great dilll-
eulty there is of correcting a popular
error. Needless to say that the legend
that Dr. Gulllotin was among the vic
tims of his friend’s ingenious and mer
ciful instrument of destruction is
wholly apocryphal. He died at a good
old age nnd lit ills lied, surrounded by
ills children, wiio, however, obtained

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There
is only one way to cure deafness and
that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf,
ness is cansed by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed you
have a rnmbliug sound or imperfect
hearing, aud when it is entirely olosed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing, will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condi
tion of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be oured by Hall’s Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

No Influence Above.
In Dr. Julin Hall's time it was the
custom In his church to use the old
fashioned, simple hymns, and the sing
ing was congregational.
On one occasion William M. Evarts
discovered E. Delafleld Smith, then
cor|torution counsel of New Y'ork city,
singing with all his heart and whis
pered to his friend:
‘‘Why, there Is Smith singing "1
want to be an angel!’ I knew he want
ed to be district attorney, but 1 didn’t
know he wunted to be an angel.”
The remark was repeated to Mr.
Smith, and quick as a flash came the
retort:
"No, I have never mentioned the mat
ter to Evarts, knowing that he had no
influence in that direction.”
