A Chinaman. dying. left eleven
sheep and three sons and, making a
will, left one-half Of his estate to his
eldest boy, one-fourth to the next and
one-sixth to the third son. They wish
ed to divide without killing a sheep,
but could not see how to do 1t, so they
sent for a wise man. Sending TO his
own fold for a sheep, he put 1t In with
the eleven. Now take your half-six,
said he to the eldest, and he did so;
the second. take your fourth-three;
the younger, take your sixth and be-
gone-two, and they all did so, when
the wise man drove his own sheep

To laze is an old verb. In Samuel

are told that '1oyterers laze In the

I believe, in some Of Mortimer Collins
