Stones in the present Con gress, uud both arc natives of Kentucky, though one represents a Missouri district. Of the Kentucky Congressman this story Is teld: He was wounded at the battle of Cynthtana. He lay in pain in the sun for some time afterwards. While there a young lady who was devoting her ener gies te the care of the wounded found him. She had nothing te shelter him from the burning sun, and there was no ambulance at hand. Hastily driving some short sticks into the ground about the soldier's head, she spread her hand kerchief upon them and thus afforded him a bit of shade while she attended as best she could te his wound. When he was taken te the hospital his leg was am putated. Shu nursed the man back te health in time and the acquaintance thus formed developed into a case of true love. After the soldier was honorably discharged she became Mrs. Stene, the wife of the Congressman. A Wonder In Figures. Seme person of a mathematical turn of mind has discovered that the multipllca- - tien of 0876543-31 (which you will observe are simply the figures 1 te 0 inclusive re versed) by 45 give 44,444,444,445. Re-, versing the order of the digits and multi plying 123450789 by 45 we get a result equally as curious, viz., 5,555,555,505. If we take 123450789 as the multiplicand y and interchanging the figures in 45 se as te make them read 54, tise the last numbers as 'the multiplier, aud the result will be O.COO.OOfl.OOfl. Returning te the multi plicand 98754321 and tnking 54 as the multiplier again, the result will be 53,838, 833,334 all 8s except the first and last figures, which together read 54 the mul plici . Taking the same multiplicand and 27, the half of 54, as the multiplier, the product is 20,006,000,007, all 6s except the first and last figure's which togethor read as 27 the multiplier. New interchang ing the order of the figures 27 and using 72 instead as a multiplier 087054321 as the multiplicand we get as a product 71(111, 111,112, all Is oxcept the first and last fig ures, which together read as 72, the mul. tiplier, Mathematicians and ethers who delight te wade around In the realms of the cu rious are well aware df, the fat that there are anv welders te be aaet with en every hand, but it U doubtful if tbere.ls a better Illustration of the trite HtylBg, "FiffUfe will work weders," tkH tint gives fttev s. m i -A i '! 1 ' I'M ,-v ''fi j . .ti . .
