Seven Problems That Have So Far
Baffled Mans Mighty Brain.
The history OF science has seven
problems that men In all ages more or
less have tried to solve. but which
have finally been given up by ell. To
day they are called follies.
The usual list comprises the follow
ing: First, sQuaring the circle; second,
duplication OF the cube; third, trisec-
ton of an angle; fourth. perpetual mo-
ton: fifth. transmutation Of metals;
sixth. hxation Of mercury; seventh.
elixir Of life. Some lists put the phi
losopher's stone for the last three and
then add astrOlogy and magic to make
the seven.
To the unlearned It would seem pos
sible to draw a square which shall be
exactly equal In area to given circle,
which is the first problem in the list,
but we are told by the highest author
tiles that 1t is impossible.

claimed that the change Of one metal

on the eve of the new year. From 3
o'clock that night until utter midnight
he would not take water In any cir
cumstances from glass. 1t was an
ancient tradition in the chancellor's
family that any one who set the legend
at defiance would pass through seri-
Gus illness. If another tradition is true
the observance OF the family legend
must have been sore trouble to the
iron chancellor. fer the Paris contem.
porary from which we take the fore

An eagle lives from 80 to 100
years. The young birds are driven
forth BY their savage parents to pro-
vide for themselves rs soon as they are
able to fly. No training is given them
by the old bird. That Is left to their
wild instincts. which hunger and ne.
cessity develop. There is no "going
back to the old home" for the young
eagles. The mother bird tears up ev-
cry vestige of the nest, and II they
emit plaintive shrieks the old birds
dart at them and push them of the
crags or rocks and thereby make them
take to their wings 1t takes three
