But there is a simple way to make

Now, light a wad of paper. lay It on
the cork and place the tumbler over

The reason is that the burning of

This Family is Incorporates.

The Fairbanks Family OF America
Qncorporated) Is one OF the latest or.
ganizations asking for a charter. The
objects of the society are TO collect
and compile historical records OF the
clan Fairbanks. to hold property. to
preserve objects of interest to the
family. and to promote education of
its members in subjects relating To
the family history.
The first Fairbanks to take up an
abode on this continent was Jonathan,
but the tribe has been prolific, and
about 1000 American families have
descended from him to refute the
racial suicide hullabaloo.
In August last a family reunion was
held at the Fairbanks homestead In
Dedham, Mass, and one of its results
was the Incorporation recently asking
for a charter. The idea OF the so
ciety is to purchase the Dedham prop
erty and provide for an annual In
come sufficient to maintain 1t as a

Cash Of the LONG Aao.

Lineal descendants OF the bronze
axe OF remote Celestial ancestors arc
the little brass cash, the Chinese
coins. Here is how this curious pedi-
gree first worked itself out: In the
early times. before coin was invented.
barter was usually conducted between
producer and consumer with metal
implements. as IL still is in Central
Africa at the present day. At first
the Chinese in that unsophisticated
age were content to use real hatchets
for this commercial purpose. but after
a time with the profound mercantile
instinct of their race. II occurred to
some of them that when man
wanted half hathet's worth Of goods
he might as well pay for them with
half a hatchet AS 1t would be pity
to spoil a good working implement by
cutting II in two, the worthy All Sin
ingeniously compromised the matter
by making thin hatchets of the usual
size and shape, but far too slender for
practical usage. By SO doing he in
vented coin. and. what is more. he In
vented 1t far earlier than the claim
ants to that proud distinction, the

first struck In the seventeenth cen

Placing the Pennies.

in the accompanying illustration.
That is to say, you place nine of
the pennies in straight line. one be-
low the other and two on each side of
the third penny from the top.
Now. with the cross thus made you
may count nine In three different
ways: First. the stem counts nine:
from top to bottom; second. count
six from the bottom up to the cross
piece. and then three from the middle
penny of the crosSpiece to the right:
third. count six from the bottom up
to the crosspiece, and then three on
to the left.
The puzzle is to take away two Of
the pennies and leave the cross SO
that 1t will count nine In three differ
ent ways.
Lay the paper down and try IT.
Perhaps you may succeed. but II you
do not. take away one penny from
each side and remove the top penny
TO the bottom. Simple enough, isn't

Bread Pill Trick.

Make two bread pills, and say to
the spectators that you are going to
throw one of them away and put the
other in your left hand while the lat
ter is closed. Then the thrown-away
pill will come into the left hand while
the latter Is closed.
Here is the way to do the trick:
Hold one OF the pills between the
thumb and first finger of your right
hand for everyone to see. Then mako
a motion as II throwing It away. but
by a deft. unseen motion OF your
thumb YOU must slip 1t between the
first and second fingers. where you
can keep It concealed.
