A German newspaper says the age of a persen the month ig’ which he was born may be discovered as follows: First you ask him to go to the, other end of the room, to prevent your seeing what he is going to write. Then you ask him ‘to put down the number of the month in which he was born, and multiply the latter by 2; add 5 to the sum and multiply the latter by 50; add his age to the product; then deduct 365 and add, 115 to-the remainder. Suppose he is 49years of age and was born in February-the computation might stand thus: 2x2 equals 4, plus 5 equals 9, x 50 equals 450, plus-49 equals 499, minus 365 equals 134, plus 115 equals 249. The last two figures indicate the age, viz, 49, and the first figure 2, February, the second month of the year. You simply ask the person to state the result of the . calculation, and then declare that he was bord in February and is 49 years ef age. Experiment with this as often as you please--and—it—is sure to work provided you do it correctly. Musicale, The. regularweekly—soiree—wiltbe* giver} —Advanced—pupils: of Profs J.

London’s Queer Mixture of Dowry, Matrimony and Hebrew Philanthropy. “Michael Harris and Nancy Jecobs having polled the highest number of votes were duly elected to receive a dowry of £25 and marriage fees, and a vacancy was gain declared for a couple,” So ran a paragraph in a Jewish Taper recently, anda reporter was firéd with an-ambition to learn more about these folks who. give couples dowries;~and more about the conditions under which such dowries are won. The benevolence, it-appeared, emanated from the Society for Allowing Marriage Fees and a Por.tion-to-Young Men and Virtuous Girls of the Jewish Faith, The president of this “society one would imagine would be a. patriarcéhal sage with grandchil. ~ dren in scores about his knees. But Mr. ‘A. Swaab, who. is the head of the society, is ayoung man with a slight black mustache, a clean shaven chin and certainly.ao grandchildren:--When -not hymeneally occupied he is engaged in his business as a diamond merchant in Hatton Garden. aa “The society,” he said,in reply to the interviewer, ‘‘has been in existence nearly 50-years, and has done no small amount of good. It was started among a few friends in quite a small way, anda dowry of £10 only was all that could be afforded at first. But £10, if not exactly a drop in the ocean, was not quite suffi". Gient to answer the purpose in view, and ‘as the fund grew the dowry wasincreased to £25.” = ‘Are the operations-of the society.confined to London?” aitNo. They extend all over England. The funds are recruited by subscriptions of all amounts, from a penny a week upward, and by donations.” “It giyes them a prior claim on the dowry perhaps?” “No, it doesn’t. I will make that clear ina moment. We assist about a dozen couples every year, the dowries and marriage fees coming to over £300. The object in giving the dowry is to enable the young couples to start a little business together. Before becoming candidates for the dowry—toward which they need not. have subscribed a farthing—they have to be possessed of all home necessaries and furniture, and the man has to prove to the satisfaction of the committee that he is in a position to maintain his wife.” ; “Only virtuous girls areto be befriended by the society, I gather frorn its title. Does it not become rather a delicate matter to adjudicate upon the qualifications of young lady applicants?” “Every case is investigated by twa members of the committee, appointed annually for ‘that purpose. They. make their inquiries with proper tact and discretion, and they also investigate the character of the man. Let us go through the entire procedure. Say a vacancy has been declared, which means that we have sufficient in hand to put another dowry up for competition. We send out notices to that effect and supply forms of application, We get four, five, six, perhaps a dozen couples contesting for the prize, They all come before the committee in couples, and are asked questions concerning the money they have sayed, the nature of the man’s work, and so on. Once, I suppose, 1 must have been_pressing the prospective bridegroom pretty hard, for the young lady spoke up sorrowfully, ‘Well, sir, you got married once, and we want to too!’” ‘‘Well, as soon as they have been admitted as candidates, what follows?” “We give them a book of members, and tell them to go and canvass for votes, the members: possessing votes in proportion to the amount of their subscriptions.” : ; “Have you yourself many votes?” Yes, [hold something like 80 votes.” “Then you are the target of plenty of beseeching brown’ eyes and persuasive glances?" _ “No, nothing out of the way, because as president I take no part in choosing the recipients of the dbwer.” ‘Can. you_ give me a specifie-instance of the good the gociety: has done?” “I can, and a striking one, I think.

THE LAW DEFINED. Relative to Recording a Mortgage As Against Another Loan. The Supreme Court has lately decided-an appeal case from Sonoma county involving a question of general intérest. One Pierce Asbill gave the Bank of Ukiah a note _for some $10,000 and a mortgage upon his land as security. The bank held his mortgage but did not record it, Asbill afterwards berrowed from the Petaluma Savings’ Bank about $1,000 upon his note, and failing to pay.thé same that bank sued him and levied an attachment upon the land covered by the mortgage. The qnestion presented upon the trial was: “Will the lien ofan unrecorded mortgage given to secure a loan take precedence over an attachment lien obtained: after an execution of the mortgage ?” Judge Dougherty held that the law only protects purchasers and mortgagees who buy or loan in good faith without notice of thé unrecorded mortgage.
