A Puzzle, ,

An old gentleman was in the
Office the other day and submitted
the following problem for solution,
but as the puzzle editor has not
yet returned from his vacation we
submit it to our readers for what
it is worth. hoping some of them
may have the time and inclination
to figure it out.
He said: IF I had two more
members in my family l would
have 138. There is my wife and
myself, that's two. l have eight
children and seven grandchildren.
l have two daughters in-law and
if l had one more / would have
twenty one. If / had one son-in-
law l would have 100, as now
have co."

The Vanity of Men.

"Vanity, vanity, all is vanityP' saith
the preacher. Which is usually inter
preted to mean, "An women are vani-
ty." In point of fact. the observant
are agreed that there is no sex in vani-
ty, more than in mind. An elevator at
tendant not long ago glanced disgust
edly at q man who during a long trip
up ten or more stories occupied the en-
tire time at the mirror. He curled the
ends of his mustache, arranged his tie,
adjusted his hat at a more becoming
angle and was altogether so absorbed
that he was carried beyond his destina-
ton and had to walk down q fight OF
stairs.
Said the elevator man to a woman In
the car: "They say that woman can't
go by looking glass without looking
at herself, but as far assI can see she
amt I'm it with the men. A woman
never gets a chance to look in that
glass, for the men keep 1t busy all the
time"
The man who carries tiny comb or
brush in his pocket for use in public
places Is by no means exceptional. He
may be seen on the cable cars, the az"
and in elevators brushing his mustache
and eyebrows with as much care as a
woman could give to the arrangement
Of her curly front locks blown into dis
order by the wind. or course neatness
is commendable, but there is always q
touch of the ludicrous in a mans tax
ing the little case from his pocket, ex-
tracing the comb and coexing his hir-
suite adornments into a more becoming
curve.-New York Tribune.

 Thursday nights train brought nineteen Chlnamen into Nogales. They travelled in bond and were book ed for different points in Sonora. After they had been examined and passed upon by the U $. custom officials they were escorte1 over into Mexico to board the train for the south. A quarantine has been established along the border and coast of Mexico against the port of San Francisco and the Chinamen were not allowed to board the train. After the train had pulled out the unfortunate celestials drifted ln body towards Uncle Sam'S do- main. At the line they were con- fronted by four U. $. officials who re- fused to let them proceed step further. The leader who spoke Eng lsh fluently explained to the guards the trouble and asked for advice He was told it was impossible for them to again come on this side and under the circumstances the best thing they could do would be to go straight up." As the railroad had not been released from their bond the Chinamen were allowed to come this side of the line, where they were guarded all night. Friday they were thorougly fumigated by the Mexican officials and were allowed to proceed on their journey

 Six weeks or month ago an Amer ican was found lying insenSible along side the railroad track near Mazda lena. A passing train had run over his foot and it was thought at the time he was picked up that he would live but few hours. He was brought at once to Nogales aud placed in the rail- road ward in the hospital. He re- manned unconscious for fifteen days during which time his foot was am- putated. When he recovered sulii- cient to talk he stated that his name was Bean and that he was a sewing machine agent. The last thing he remembers was being told that he was wanted to repair machine and the man who was to show him the house. Wednesday morning he was sent by the railroad company to his home in California.
