Thoro nover was a colobratlon of nny
kind in any city, village or hamlet,
whero every one was catisflod and thcro
was no criticiem. No committee over
suited ovcrybody, for different people
havo different idoas. All that can be
asked of tho tncmberg of any commRrecr-
. ?
Is that they do their best, an neo their
own best judgement. Tnen stand in
nnd givo them hearty support. It is at
bctt a thankless fnok to act on any com
mitleo aud I- involves -worry and trouble
enough, without any unnecessary an
noyances being added.
More Figures , .
The Mail offlco received a call yester-.
day from the loan company acent who
was mentioned in there columns yeetcr-.
day morning. Ho fecmed. to thick that
wo had done him an Injustice In tayir.gv
that his prorosltion was eouivalent to n.
promise of in per cent interest.
Well, wo figured the thing nt nimplo in-i
tercet. If tho interest wero compounded,
often enough it would not require eo
high a rain. In fact, the kind gentleman
io question figures that his proposition,
in only equivalent to 0 percent interest
compounded.
As a matter of fact, $C00 placed ov
Interest at 0 per cerjt, compounded
yearly, lor tho entire period c(. ,
100 months would sot amount
to $1000, On interest at six per cent .
compounded ytarly for half the period;' . .; jitm

We haven't tlmo just now -to figure
out tho exact percentngo of interest-it
would requiru, if compounded, to equal
tho returns promleed in this scheme,
but it would bo something over 13 per
cent. Of coureo thoro is no capital ly-
