MURDER MYSTERY

GEE how good your friends
~ are at solving this mystery:
A lawyer and a physician
lunched together, usually spend
ing a couple of hours together,
nearly every day. The physician
always paid the bill. The other
day, the doorman Of the res
taurant they frequented, ran in,
calling for a doctor. The physi-
clan responded to the call, fol-
lowed by the lawyer. The physi-
clan found a woman, seriously
injured, lying face down on the
sidewalk. He turned her over,
then said in shocked surprise,
"Sally!" He added the explana-
tion, "It's my wife!"
Whereupon the lawyer took
out a gun and shot the doctor.
Why?

WORKS LIKE MAGIC

AERE'S magic trick for our junior readers.
II A thimble is placed on table and is given
little push with the finger. It mysteriousy gldes
gracefully from one end of the table to the other
All that is needed to perform this trick is a
thimble and steel ball-bearing of such size as
to fit easily inside the thimble.
Pass the thimble around for examination. Re-
ceive it back and secretly introduce the ball. Next
put it on the table and give it gentle push AS the
thimble topples over the other end of the table,
catch it and retain the ball and pass the thimble
around again for inspection.
