Can You Solve lt2-With his rent
six weeks in arrears Scribbler sat
trembling lest the landlady hear the
beating of his heart and call for q
reckoning. Presently there reached his
ears the sound Of fierce words, as oi
two striving together in deadly argu-
ment. Scribbler became aware that
Mr.. and Mrs. Slumpkins were engaged
in unraveling one Of their domestic
tangles.
At length there came a light tap on
the door
Scribbler looked toward the window
as a possible avenue Of escape. How
ever, before he could make up his mind
to try the rain spout route the door
opened cautiously, and Slumpkins
bald head appeared first, then the rest
Of him crept slowly in.
In a whisper he advised Scribbler
not to pay Mrs. Slumpkins, insomuch
as she was not the head of the house.
Scribbler acquiesced and Slumpkins
disappeared.
A little later another rap on the door,
this time more insistent, caused Scrib-
bier to look up. 1t was Mrs. Slump
kins.
Say. don't you pay my old man any
money, Mr.. Scribbler. He won't do
nothing but drink it up. This morning
/ had to let him know who runs this
house. We amt speaking to each other
now"
Again Scribbler acquiesced.
That was six months ago. They
haven't spoken to each other yet; and
Scribbler goes on his way rejoicing.
Puzzle question: What will be the
first question they ask when they start
speaking again Satire.

A PuzzIina Trick.

Take a piece of writing paper about
three inches square and with lead
pencil the point of which has been
dipped in water, draw Il circle, Il
square. triangle or any other geo
metrical figure. Put the PAPER care
fully on pah of water. letting it float
and leaving the surface dry. Carefully
drop water on the surface of the paper
until the space within the figure is
filed The moistened pencil lines will
keep it from flowing outside the figure.
Now place the point of pin over some
point in the figure near the edge The
pin point must penetrate the surface or
the water but must not touch the pa
per Al once the paper will float around
until the pin points directly to tl'e cen
ter of the figure See if you can ind

Honest Men Enouuh.

Well may New York be shocked by
such revelations of open and fragrant
vice frostered and protected by a
venal and corrupt police, as have
been made during recent weeks. but
one remedy that is seriously propos-
ed for the scandalous conditions that
exist there is really amazing.
This proposal is that the regulation
of all public nuisances such as vice.
gambling and the sale of liquor be
placed in the hands either Of the
board of health or of a special com.
mission. Herein is a confession that
some New Workers deem the rehabili
tation of the police department i'm.
possible so long as il is charged with
the enforcement of laws against vice.
gambling and illegal liquor vending
If to purify the department it is nee
essary to relieve IL OF a large part of
it's duty il must, indeed, be in a sad
condition Of Generalization and cor
ruDtion.
The case. however, is probably not
as desperate as il appears. There
the honest men in New York able
and willing to serve the city in its
police department. Such men should
replace the grafters and crooks who
have dishonored themselves and dis
graced the biggest municipality in
the country. With that change made
New York will not need to establish
separate departments to secure an
honest, fearless and eficinet enforce
ment Of the laws.-Montpelier Jour

Rats and Water.

Government experiments show that
rats can live IN indefinite time with
out water. Three Of the animals were
put on Il diet consisting. of bread. meat
and cheese, but no water and all were
alive and well sixty days after the
experiment was begun. On the fif-
teenth day one was given an oppor-
tunity to drink, but made no attempt
to do SO. When kept without food
but with water. one rat lived three
days. and of six rats deprived Of both
food and water all died within periods
ranging from two to five days -Chi,a-

Borrowers and Lenders.

| The Randolph Herald comments
thus on the five per cent exemption
bill:
Criticism of the five per cent ex-
emption is also made on the ground
that IL favors only one class of Dor
rowers-real estate moragagors-
whereas tax reform should relieve
all classes. 1t is unjust. some claim,
to those who have to borrow on per
sonal security. endorsed notes, col
lateral, etc, and who would have to
pay six per cent (since on these
loans exemption could not be claim
ed This criticism appears well
grounded The exemption, If it is
granted at ALL ought to extend to all
classes of loans, that are real and
not fictitious ones. However, il is
agreed that real estate. and especial
ly farm loans are needing relief most
just now, and If ii is thought to be
too radical change to exempt all
loans made at fixed rate. here is
the place to begin.
The one saving grace of the FIVE
per cent exemption plan is that it
does actually and beyond question
carry straight through to the borrow
er the benefit of the exemption grant
ed either in whole or large part. In
order TO get the exemption, the in
terest rate cannot exceed five per
cent. This positive assurance is
worth some sacrifice all around
If one class of citizens is favored
with a reduction of interest to five
per cent. under certain conditions,
all other persons who get their liv-
ing in Vermont should have the
same treatment If a man borrows
money to finance his factory or his
store there is no reason why the
manufactures should not get the
same reduction of interest as the
man who borrows upon real estate.
To refuse it to any other class of
citizens than farmers would be class
legislation, which is offensive to
fundamental law
In the present condition of the
finances of the State there is grave
doubt about the policy of passing the
