Toward the end of every century
the question is raised as to
the day on hdinch the new century
connnences. VWithout giving the
t matter consideration it would
I seem, says the London G-raphic,

century will be January 1, 1900,
and the last day of this, Dec. 31,
1899, but a hLtte thought wil!
convince anyone IIat the beginning
and the end do not occur
until a year racert, [the first day of
the coming century being January
1, 1901. For until 1900 years
have actually passed since the
