LLOYD'S MARINE AGENCY

THE common impression among people not
i informed on shipping matters is that
Lloyd's is a corporation engaged in the
business of insuring ships 1t would be just as
accurate to say that Bradstreet'S or Dun's is
engaged in the business of insuring credits
Neither is correct. but Lloyd's is to the
shipping world what BradStreet's and Dun'S
are to the mercantile world.
If a wholesale merchant in New York city
receives an order from a retail dealer in kala-
mazoo Michigan. with whom he has had no
previous dealings. his first move before he
fills that order and risks the loss of its value
is to consult his book of rating
So 1t Is with insurance companies engaged
in nSuring vessels The owner of a vessel
before despatching her on a voyage naturally
desires to insure her against loss, and he there
fore applies to 4 broker to effect 1t. The
broker goes 70 Llovd's rooms where he meets
the underwriters who IN reality compose the
association known lS Llovd'S, and there makes
known that he Is commissioned TO insure the
Columbia for say five hundred thousand dol
lars. The underwriters consult Llovds regis
ter, and II they find the Columbia rated y g..

bade her write a row beneath 1t. So under

and under the other lines Fred wrote 6.S7I.5oS-
Fold it up quickly said Uncle Bob and

Look IN your pocket. SAID her uncle.
Don't pretend YOU haven't II hidden IN Your

Bewildered Lucy thrust her hand into her
pocket. and felt there a folded paper Drawing
it out and unfolding 1t, she found II contained
the figures, I6,234 S62. and this proved 20 be
the correct sum OF the rows OF figures on the
paper beneath the book.
Then Uncle Bob made his explanation which
was IN part a confession had a con-

Il don't care" said Lucy. ' Ike tricks

Well. said her uncle. in the first case,
when you put down two rows Of figures, and
Fred put two rows beneath them he was care
fu 70 write such figures IN each of his rows as
would make all nInes when added 70 those IN
Your row. That Is. to match Your S34 he
wrote los. and TO match Your 200 he wrote
7O3, in each case writing the figure that would
make when added 10 the one above It.
Therefore, one of your rows and one OF his
void make 900. and the other two would
make 900, or 1908 in all Now, as | knew
this sum would be 1,QQS. | had it already IN
scribed on the looking glass"
How did You do it," demanded Lucy.
"Oh. that's a simple matter II YOU write
anything on a mirror with a piece OF French
chalk and then lightly wipe 1t of with a silk
handkerchief 1t will not show until somebody
breathes upon it, which YOU ObligInglv did,
The next test was the same, except that
YOU wrote three rows OF figures. and Fred
added three rows, making the pairs come to

The last was merely another variation OF

wrote a row under 1t. and Fred wrote a row
beneath that, being careful that each of his
figures should make when added to the one

under a book, while her uncle sat seemingly

three figures,
SO under the s. 3, A. Lucy wrote 2. o, 8.

SO Lucy folded the paper and laid it under

It's real magic this time" said Uncle Bob.
and You must sit very still until those num-
bers fix themselves clearly in my brain, and |
can add them up.
Lucy gazed, fascinated at her uncle, and he
stared straight at her. until after few moments,
he said, Lucy, get up and walk over TO that
small mirror that hangs by the window"
Lucy did as she was told, and found herself
looking into an oval mirror not much larger
than her own chubby face.
Now, sad her uncle, still IN mysterious
whisper, breathe slowly but firmly on the
looking glass"
Greatly mystiied, Lucy breathed on the
glass, when to her surprise some figures in
stantly appeared upon the smooth surface.
The figures ,o0S.
Where did they come from2" cried Lucy,
her eyes wide with wonder.
It's the answer to your sum-" said her
uncle, If you'll pull out your paper from
under the book and add the figures yourself,
| think you will find 1t correct
Trembling with excitement, Lucy pulled
the paper from beneath the book, and. adding
up the figures found that, sure enough the
total was 1908.
With comcal looks of amazement. she
glanced back and forth from the figures on the
mirror to those on the paper. This beats
ali Your other tricks uncle, She said. Please
show me how to do 1t.
Lucy sat still and tried the amazing expert
ment again.
This time her uncle told her TO write three
rows of three figures each under one another.
bidding Fred write three more rows under
hers. So Lucy wrote three rows, and Fred
added three rows, with this result:
