Since 4+4=8, the second 8 in the middle at the 
bottom is gotten from adding the two 4's directly 
above it, there could not be anything carried to 
the column that has the first 8 at the bottom.  So 
that first column at the bottom addition is L+7=8.  
Therefore the only thing L can be is 1.  So we
have:

                 37
               ﾗ 2J
               覧覧

Let's try J = 0

                 37
               ﾗ 20
               覧覧
                140
                74
               覧覧
                880  That's incorrect!

J is not 1 because L is already 1 and J and L 
can't be the same number.

So we try J = 2

                 37
               ﾗ 22
               覧覧
                144
                74
               覧覧
                884  That's incorrect

Try J = 3

                 37
               ﾗ 23
               覧覧
                141
                74
               覧覧
                881  That's incorrect

Try J = 4

                 37
               ﾗ 24
               覧覧
                148
                74
               覧覧
                888  That's CORRECT!

So since we started with this:

                 37
               ﾗ 2J
               覧覧
                L4K
                74
               覧覧
                88K

J = 4, K = 8, and L = 1.
