A Hungarian citizen has invented an instrument which shows instantly the amount of interest duo on any giv?n sum for any period at any given ■ate of interest. The instrument, made n the size and shape of a watch, is of very simple construction, and inexpensive. All that is necessary to oper-, ate it is to place the hands in the pro-, per position, on the dial, and the exact amount of interest in each case is indicated on the face of the instrument. He sat alone upon the pier Throughout the live-long night. The cold wind rattled through his bones, It gave his wife a fright. She straightway to the chemist went, His cough she could not endure. And now dear hubby is thriving like fun On Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure. By mere waste, caused by coins rubbing one against another, the civilised world, it is said, loses one ami a quarter tons of gold and 88 tons of silver annually. ■ Invoices, circulars, In fact anything 1* the printing line, can be got at tbs "Times" jobbing department at reason l able oo«t.
