GeOmetrical Problems.

It may interest readers to know
that the problem of the square and
triangle can be solved very easily II
the required number of pieces Is Ave,
instead of four. Those who do not
know that solution may like to try
for it.
Here is something that is going to
make trouble, sure as fate. The
thing Is not so much to find the an
swer as to prove it.
Electricians are usually pretty lib
eral with their wire, but just to edu-
cate his assistant a bit one of them
took the boy into room which was
forty feet long, fourteen feet wide
and twelve feet high. There were no
openings or offsets on the two ends
or on one side. Here is the way it
looked:

see that after few days the army OF
the defence was in sore need of a
good nights rest. The men had been
kept on the qui vive almost constant
ly, while the attacking force was
slumbering soundly well out of our
reach.
That is the sort Of tactics, 1t seems
to me that aeroplanes would be able
to carry out effectively. They could
worry whole army If they did moth
ing else. 1t would be a sort of hit
and run game. They would be like
SO many wasps about a mans head.
If they wanted to, they could dis
regard the rules of warfare and de-
stroy a city without warning. And
there is not much doubt in my mind
that the rules would be disregarded by
the average army if the destruction of
certain city seemed advisable. The
officer in command would no doubt
ind a good military reason for it,

A wire had been tapped at =, one
foot from the floor, and exactly in
the middle of that side Of the room
seven feet from each wall. It was
necessary to carry a wire from there
to the point B, which was exactly in
the middle Of the opposite wall,
seven feet from each side, but two
feet from the ceiling.
This wire might be run along the
floor, the walls or the ceiling. What
was the shortest cut the wire could
take from A to B, and how do you
prove it? In your answer, If you
cannot draw, call the possible loca-
lions for the wire; the floor, the side
wall, the A wall, the B wall and the
ceiling. The wire must pass over
some of those five.-New York Sun.

it is incorrect to say it, although it

Retreat? Never!

In an Irish garrison town a theat-
r1cal company was giving perform
ances, and some soldiers from the
local barracks were engaged to act as
supers. Their duties included the
wasing Of fierce fight in which, af-
ter a stirring struggle, one army was
defeated on given signal from the
prompter. For a few nights all went
well, but on the Friday evening
special performance of the piece was
to be given under the patronage of
the Colonel and other officers of the
garrison. The two armies met as
usual at the end of the second act,
when they foughtand fought and kept
on fighting, regardless of the agon-
lied glare in the eye of their (actor)
general. who hoarsely ordered the
proper army to Retreat, confound
you!" But the fight still went on,
and soon the Mortified manager saw
the wrong army being driven slowly
off the stage, still fighting desperate
ly. Down came the curtain amid
roars of laughter, and the Tuning
manager fastened to ask the delin-
quents why they had failed to retreat
on hearing the signal.
"Retraite," roared a burly fusilier,
whose visage had been badly bat
tered, land is it retraite ye'd have us,

the boxes ?"-Tit-Bits.

Clever BOY.

AS it happened, the boss was talk
Ing to a customer when a boy came
In. Thinking he wanted to buy
something, he excused himself, and
going over to the boy asked him
what he could do for him. The boy
told him that he came in answer to
his advertisement and asked for the
Job.
Well, of course, the boss got mad
by being disturbed while he was talk
Ing to customer. He said to the
boy. "You go outside and walk a
block. If I call you back, why, 1
will hire you; If l don't, why, you
Just keep right on walking"
The boy did as he was told, but
going out. he picked up a shovel that
was standing near the door, put it
on his back and started down the
street.
Before he had gone ten feet away
the old man was after him, yelling:
Come back! Come back!"
The boy came back, took of his
coat, asked where he wanted him to
work-downstafrs or upstairs, or
where.
The man took one good look at
him and said: II guess I'll hire you.
Never mind putting your coat on.
Start right fn."-Judge.

HIS MOTHER LIKED AUCTIONS.

when was a small boy" he said
Il remember that my mother had two
peculiar fancies. She was very fond
OF auctions and of moving.
Time and again, recall, we'd sell
out the goods, or rather a part OF
them, that we had in our place, al
though there was no real need of get
ting rid of them and we didn't need
the money to that extent; but there
was something about the hustle and
hurry OF an auction and the excitement
OF seeing what folks would bid for
things that my mother thought pretty
well OF that impelled her to have fire.
quent sales of goods.
My father, an amiable, easy going
sort of man, never objected in the
least. He would simply hire the auc-
tioneer and after the sale prepare to
go down town to buy some stuff to
take the place of that which had been
sold
1T was in small country town and
OF course an auction there in the house
OF fairly good family was an event,
AS result folks used to throng our
home for several days before to look
things over, and then they'd come in
on the day of the sale all framed up
to make bids for the stuff.
Whatever my mothers eccentric1ty
about auctions, it was nothing COM
pared to her feeling toward moving.
l believe we lived in more houses in
the small town we were in than any
one else, even the most confirmed nom

ing evicted
THE house l was born in was not
the house l was living in when was
3 years old, although it was on the
same street. Three years later we
had moved about mile further up
town and on different street. Then
after two years we moved into a
fourth house and stayed there for
about a year and a half. Then we
went back to one of the earlier places.
Every place we moved into we bought.
SO we had string of real estate.
when l was 10 years old we went
to live in hotel for while, but soon
got back to housekeeping. In all, be-
tore l was Is years old, when We left

we moved into one of them we al

The filing of antitrust penalty suits
aggregating several million dollars
against two score or more "non-board"
fire insurance corporations doing bus
mess in Mississippi has given to the
commonwealth trust busting CAM
paign somewhat of sensational turn.
The author of the new proceedings
against the "non-board" concerns is
District Attorney j. D. Thames, of the
Ninth Judicial District, and the liti-
cation he has instituted in the chan
Gerry court of Warren county not only
asks for penalties aggregating millions
of dollars. but he also asks that the
companies be ousted from transaction
of business in this state.
Some time ago proceedings were
filed in the chancery court of Lowndes
county, with the sanction of the at
torney general, against all of the fire
insurance companies having member
ship in inspection bureaus and boards
of fire underwriters, and asking for
penalties aggregating $217,O00,090.
Would Gust Them.
And now the non-board companies
have incurred the states disfavor,
and, should the proceedings in the
several counties be successful, it will
put out of business every fire insur-
ance company authorized to transact
business in the commonwealth.
The litigation has assumed some ex.
traordinary aspects. It was believed
