Now start on any coin, count off four, and turn this coin over -to show tails. Continue this process until all coins show tails. Each time you count four, you must also oount any coins In be ' tween that show tails. You can, however, start on any coin each time; that is, after the first turn over, you can skip any number of coins In the circle before start lng to count off four again. How ever, whatever number of coins you skip at first, you must con tinue to skip this same number each time before counting ' off four. It Is possible to conform to these conditions and turn over all coins to tails.

His wife, Angle, had made anxious in quiries of neighbors when he had ' failed to return home the previ ous night. She got word that his Jalopy had been found, sided off the road a mile away. Its engine apparently had quit on! the driver. Discovery of his body in the brook, face down, by a farm hand, confirmed Angle's Worst fears. The county detective, thought at first that Tod, taking a short cut home through the woods, might have stumbled and, in falling, hit his head on a Jagged stone in the brook,: then collapsed into the water, j " The coroner's finding, however, was "murder." Death, he jheld, had been caused, not by drown ing or the head wound, but by manual strangulation. Skin lac erations on the dead man's sock less ankles suggested contact with brambles or perhaps some thin frnce wire. f Closer scrutiny by the detec tive of the area around: the brook's planked bridge over showed: 1 Signs that the body had been dragged down the bank into the brook; 2 Freshly indented cuts into the green bark of two saplings standing at opposites beside the path near the brook; 3 That Tod Martin's flash- light contained a burned out bulb and batteries. Quiet, but intensive, follow-up work by the law officer resulted In a charge of murder against the dead man's half-brother, ' Jed Stroud, a wheel-chair invalid and not too welcome lodger In the Martin home. From the medical findings and the detective's leading clues, can you surmise how this crime was committed?
