Those Fool Questions.

the other day. "A man will listen to
you while you tell him what you want,
and then he'll ask you what it is that
you want. Here's a sample: went
into drug store over here the other
day and told the man at the soda
fountain that l wanted an egg milk
shake. He looked at me a moment
and then asked me, DO you want an
egg in it?'
Il gave him the CONCEALED optic and
repeated my order to him, Egg milk
shake 1 says. Once more and again
the duck asks me, i say do you want
an egg in itY

misunderstood me, but after the Sec
ond time l spoke to him as follows:
Had it ever struck you l says to him
that ingredients Of an egg milk shake
or any other egg drink include an eggi
Egg milk shakes are not made merely
with milk and bologna sausage. If you
thought they were you've got about
fourteen good drinks coming to you.
Egg drinks call for eggs just the same
as lemonade calls for lemons or straw

HE went ahead and mixed up my
drink, and l was thinking that 1 had

THE GREEK MYRMEx.
II Was the Deadliest Weapon Of the
Ancient Puqilis$

IL Was the DeadIiest Weapon Of the
Ancient Pugilist.
The four ounce glove was unknown
to the ancient pugilist- When the
boxers and fighters came together In
the old days of Greece they wore up
on their hands the cestus, which was
in itself terrible adjunct to any
fighter. But DR.. Daniel G. Briton dis
covered that there was sometimes at
tached to the cestus a deadlier weap-
on, consisting of three pronged fork
of bronze.
This was known as the myrmex, and
DR. Brinton, who found this specimen,
gave 1t 10 the museum Of archaeology
In the University of Pennsylvania
Classical literature has frequent ref
erences to the myrmex, which is de-
scribed as the deadliest weapon of the
ancient pugilist The right hand was
swathed IN tough hide, bound in place
with thongs and supplemented by
small knobs Of lead or iron, to which
was affixed the myrmex. DIR. Brinton
made his discovery In Paris by ex-
aiming the Greek and Roman mar
bles in the Louvre. One of these
groups represented fighter bearing
on his right fist the cestus and myr-
mex
Combats In those days were much
more brutal and dangerous than those
of the modern prize ring. 1t is easily
seen that single blow of the myr-
mex might cause death or permanent
injury.
