To find the value corresponding to T.66658, not in the table, 
find the number corresponding complement of the log. 
T.6658, which number is 2,159; subtract 1, and find the 
complement of the log. which is = 1.9359165, whose num- 
ber is ,8628. Mr. Milne's table gives .979. But as it is 
not always the same rate of interest which gives the best 
accommodated ratios, in order to try when, for instance, the 
interest of money is 3 per cent, what rate of interest should 
be used in determining the ratios, use the following table :* 
Interest.

A (1.04 * X 1*03) = T.996 ^ 
nearly ; 
* This is not given as a perfect and unerring rule, but as a method in many 
cases useful, and which would be perfect for the accommodated ratio of one of the 
lives, if the other lives followed an exact geometrical ratio throughout; and that 
the real geometrical ratios were in that case used for them, provided that instead 
of comparing the said sum with the small table, we take for the base of interest 
the number whose logarithm is — X (L03), when the interest is 3 per cent.; and 
it is to be recollected that the methods is only given as a rough approximation.
