BIsMARCK's FIVE EGGS FOR THREE
How to divide five egss between three peo.
pie is problem which might fairly puzzle
a philosopher, but the practical genius of
Prince Bismarck has solved that as it has
many other difficulties which have proved
too much for profound thinkers. The only
wonder is that, as he made the great discOv-
cry as many as thirteen years ago, itshould
only now have been given to the world in
the pages Of the De,Hsche Reuue. 1t appears
that it was on the evening of Gravelotte, at-
ter a day when the Prince, like everybody
else, had had nothing to eat. and was hum
gry-hungrier, we may presume, than any
body. He had, however, the good fortune
to secure five eggs for 20f., and the generOsi-
ty to share them with two of his cOmpan-
ions. But fore-seeing the mathematical diff
ticulty which would arise if he were to at
tempt an equal division, he took the pre-
caution to eat two of the five himself, and
then dashed off to his comrades, and with a
great show of magnanimity made a fair dis
tributi0n of the remaining three, keeping
to himself all knowledge Of the two that he
had so conveniently got rid of. A rapacious
statesman would have keptall the eggs, and
QuiXotic statesman would have kept only
one of them. But it is Prince Bismarck s
peculiar distinction to combine sedulous at
tention to the interests of number one with
an effective display of unseltishnesS. He
has divided countries ere now on the princi-
ple on which he dealt with the five eggs

THE NEWSPAPER AT HoME.-With each
day that passes the newspaper grows more
and more an educator, and the extent to
which it has become so, can hardly be real
lied. A few years ago it was considered a
luxury, but there are few homes now that
are SO poor as not to count a newspaper
among its belongings. In fact, in many
houses it is the principal reading: A bust
ness man, weary with care, will hesitate
about beginning book. It seems hercu-
lean task to go through with all those pages,
attractive though they may appear, but he
will take up his paper, Gull such articles as
may strike his fancy, and then lay it down
at any moment without hesitation. In the
intervals of her housekeeping cares the wife
catches it up and reads an article here and
there to learn what is going on in the great
outside world. The boy and girl want to
see each days news, and SO the daily or
weekly journal goes the round of the fami-
ly while the book rests upon its shelf.
