The following incident occurred In
Scotland: A preliminary examination
in conncctio,y with d bursary was held
in one of the towns OF I.anarkshirc, the
place OF exanssrsasion Being the parish
school
When the morning Nt the ex;nina-
ton arrived one ef the competitors was
noticed TO be wearing a fssir of spec
taclrs. AS this was q new departure
on his part, some remarks were 81
course made, but he explained it by
saying that his eyes were naturally
weak, and hc had put spcctsvcaes on
just for that day. to etslssteract the
effect OF TOO continuous ~eting. THIS
appearing satisfactory. ITO further notice
was taken of it.
However, during the rsn,ress of the
examination, hc w&s noticed frequently
to look intcntiy on the desk. rs il
searching sor something. This oc.
cured SO often t1a:N ut the conclusion
the examiner asked him what he had
beess ss<simg. lie, however, replied that
lie had done it to relieve his eyes.
Being, however, still dubious, the OK.
a!nIicr then asked permission to look
at the spertaclcs, on which lie discov,
cred that they were strong magniticrs
His ~uspicions being aroJtised, nc put
them on and examined the desk, ON
which he discovered various figures and
notes traced with so,nc fine instrument
in the woodwork Seeing that OK,
prrssrc Mas inevitable the competitor
made a fsall G,uafcSSion, OH which il ap

and by s'sr al.,lr esf 1. ,an,lh. traced with
