That old Woman with the Eggs
Drunk Again.

| showed that the first problem was
wrongly stated and asked for an exr
PLANTATION, but instead of this, we are
now treated to Il new question entirely.
1 am called on for a solution of this
last one, but must answer, in the ems
phatic words of the immortal Artemus,
that sit can't be did" | cannot, for
the life of me, multiply so, so and 10
by the same number, and produce the
same quantity. This Is virtually what
we are called on to 90, in this last pro-
blem call for more light on both
questions.
Permit me to tell you a tale, IN which
a proplem Is set forth, and which is.
perhaps, the same attempted to be stated
in your last
Once upon a time, there was an old
woman, who had seven sons, she also had
Is dozen eggs, which she divided, very
unequally, among her first bern sons
to carry to market when they went TO
start, their brother, Esoulapsius, COM
mencel LOUD wall to GO
with them. To propitiate him in stay
ing at home, they each gave him one
Of the allotted number of eggs. When
they got to town, each boy who had one
or more dozen eggs, sold all the dozens
he could count out, at the same price
per dOzeR-then each boy who had any
eggs Oh hand, sold cut at the same
price per egg When they compared
proceeds, they found that each had one
dollar, to carry home to his dear old
nanny. How did the mother divide
the Is dozen between the boys, aud
what price did they get per dozen and
per egg? 4. p. W.
WE imb;be just the least bit and nev-
er to excess. " hen we were in the ped>
agogue business we were considered an
expert at solutions We have neither
the time nor the inclination now to de-
vote to solutions Of This kind We shall
be pleased to have our friends send US
unique questions for the BULLETIN and
to have them amuse themselves with
their solution, both Of which. when con

The rooster as political emblem had
its origin in the memorable Presidential
canvass of 1910, between Harrison and
Tyler, the Wing candidates, and Van Blu
rem and johnson, the Democratic nom>
inees. Ia the summer of that year a spe~
cial election for some purpose was held
in one Of-the counties Of Indiana, which
resulted In a Van Buren, victory. A
Democrat not acquainted with Mr. Chaps
man, the then editor of the Indianapolis
Sentinel, wrote a letter TO n friend in
Indianapolis in whi.h be advised him to
state the result. and he added these
words: Tell Chapman to Grow" Chap.
man did crow, and as significant Illus
tratinn he brought out a picture of chan>
ticleer. The democrats had few oppor~
tunities Of growing afterward in that
year, but subsequently the rooster was
adopted as the emblem of Democratic
success and as such has ever since re-
manned st Louis Times

RESIDENCE BURNED We regret to
learn that the residence of w. Rains
ey, an cid and well known citizen of
Tones Station was burned on Monday
night last. The fire was tue result of
an accident caused by a lamps being
taken to an upper room by some one of
the family which com municated its
flame to some combust;be substance. 10
q short time tue fire was beyond control
and the house and the greater part Of
the furniture were consumed. Some
thing over two hundred dollars In
money was lost The house was a com,
modious and comfortable residence,
nearly new. The loss is supposed TO
be between two and three thousand
dollars.
The King of the Carnival at jack

and those who have not witnessed the
fun, frolic and foolishness, Of Mardi
Gras, might be amused by visit to the
goodly city of Jackson, on the 9th of
February We are informed by the
neat document in hand that a grand
masquerade ball will be given en- the
evening Of that day as Tomlin's Hall
she admission to which will be free for

The state Of our finances viii pre-
clude the possibility of our attendance
on that occasion, and We are struck
with amusement bow the committee ev>

It will be to those that we can get the
money from when We want it. Parties
that owe IA MUST make some kind Of
