A MATHEMATICAL SOLUTION.

"Will you allow me to ask you
question:" interrupted a man in the
audience.
Certainly, sir" said the orator.
You have been giving us a lot Of
figures about emigration, increase Of
wealth, the growth of trusts, and all
that" said the man. Lets see what
you know about figures yourself.
How do you find the greatest common
divisor?"

took a drink of water. Then he
pointed his finger straight at the
questioner. Lightning flashed from
his eyes and he replied in a voice
that made the gas jets culver:
Advertise for it, you ignOramous."
The audience cheeTei, and the
wretched man who had asked the
question sneaked out of the hall, a
total wreck.
