Yes, my wife is great at mathematics.

You ought to have been here last
night. She did some calculating that was
something remarkable. How old do you
suppose Mrs. Lammerson is? Forty
three. Yes, sir, my wife has figured it.
How did she do it? Well, | don't know
that l can explain exactly, but she heard
that she was % when she was married,
and that two years later they moved to
Bristol, where they lived for nine months.
-Four years after that they lived in Lon
don for while. and then they spent a
year and half abroad
Nov comes the clever part CT the fig
uring. While they were in France the
lady bought ring which she wears to-
day. 1t weighed tWenty-One carats when
it was new, but probably isn't more than
half that heavy at present. This, ac-
cording to my wife's figures, shows that
the ring has been worn at least ten
years. Ali these totals added together,
multiplied by. two and then sub
tracted from the age Of the pony which
Lammerson bought for his wife fourteen
years ago, show that she was forty-three
her last birthday.
