She Could Get the Answer, but Still She
Wondered.
A dear little woman up on Capitol
hill married and went to housekeeping
in the most determined manner. She
set to work to keep an exact account of
her expenditures. balancing her books
regularly once a month. One of her
earliest purchases was an ice ticket for
the season. 1t cost, believe, $40.
A month later, in making up her &C.
counts, it occurred to her that that $40
should be divided proportionately among
the several months mentioned on the
ticket in order to give to each days &C.
ly expended on that day. Also she
wished to calculate and set down the
number of pounds Of ice used each day.
The problem had several ramifications
which have forgotten but, at any rate,
it was exceedingly difficult, and the
housewife covered sheet after sheet of
paper with her calculation. The ar
rival of her husband found her dishevel-
ed and in state of evident distress.
"What in the world is the matter?'
he asked. The wife explained.
well, can't you get any answer
without that figuring?" he asked The
wife's eyes began to blink rapidly and
she shifted suspioiously.
"Oh, l can get an answer, " she said
swallowing hard-"I can get lovely
