The Decimal System of Numbering Houses.
One Hundred Numbers are set apart for each square, which leaves a few spare numbers for each, so that one square can, in future, he re- oumbered without disarraogiog the entire street.
The initial, or starting points are at the Delaware River aod Market Street.
Persons can, hy merely looking at the numbers on the Houses, know how many squares they are from the Delaware or Market Street.
By-Streets are numbered as though they extended to the Delaware or Market Street.
Numbers properly arranged, suggest distances to the mind ; but im- properly placed, they lead to confusioo.
