GOOD PUZZLE TO WORK OUT
Occupation In Enforced ldicness 10
Good Teet Of Ones Knowledge
OF the Bible.

Evidently the matter OF occupation
when one is confined indoors is a
problem to the Swiss as we'll as to
other people. The Bonnie Revue comes
forward with an answer to the ques-
ton: What are we to do indoors?"
Instead of bemoaning the Indictment
weather it. says people should solve
the following problem:
Divide the number Of Jobs camels
before they were captured by the
Chaldeans by the number OF men sent
to take Jeremiah out of the dungeon;
add to the quotient the number OF
lords entertained at Balthazar's feast.
Subtract from the sum the number OF
Just persons who could have saved
Sodom. Multiply by David's age when
he commenced to reign. Divide by the
number Of Philistines that Samson
slew with the ass's jawbone Sub
tract the number of Solomon's songs;
multiply by the number of days dur.
ing which Job did not speak to his
friends Subtract the number Of fish
taken in the miracle OF Jesus fishing.
Add to the result the number of
prophets hidden by Abdias Subtract
the number of ungrateful lepers healed
by Jesus, and you will have a mys-
FERROUS figure contained in the Apo
calypso.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20-Possibly the
main influence bearing on the stock
exchange movement today was Sa.
urday's strong bank statement, Since
those weekly figures are published on
Saturday the Wall street gossips OF
Monday treat them as a bygone In
auence but since they are never pub
lished until after the stock market
is closed on Saturday they have no
chance to affect the market until the
opening of the next week. The state
ment indicated rather unusual
strengthening of the bank position;
as against the S9,o00,000 increase in
the surplus during the past two weeks,
the same fortnight in 1912 brought
only $2,400,0oo increase; In 1911. S.
100000; while in 1910 and 1909 there
was no increase at all The point OF
this comparison is the light 1t throws
On certain favorable elements of New
Yorls's bank position. Because of the
abnormally large gold shipments to
Europe earlier in the year. New York
hanks are not as strong cash reserve
as they have been many previous aut-
umns But interior banks-largely
because of government deposits are
lis good position.
The days stock market scarcely
called for comment except In so far
as it represented the evening UP OF
speculative ventures In various in.
