Arithmetic Is not Clara'a forto. Hut
thla doca not trouhle bar greatly. If
aha cannot aolve the problems In her
dally lesson her mother can, nnd Clara
believes that pnrenta who make chil
dren study arltlimatlc against their
will ahould ho rcsponslhle for their
examples. Mrs. Hamilton usually
elves up her evenings to Clnra's arith
metic; but not long ago, the Chicago
News saya, ahe came ahort one prob
lem because Mr. Ilond, the president
of th baking-powder company with
wblcu Mr. Hamilton was connected,
waa visiting them and had to he enter
tained. After dinner that evening Clara's
cyea were ao red that her father naked
her If she had got something In them.
"No," snld Clara, beginning to cry
again. "Mama couldn't get one of
those old cxsmples, and now I'll have
to atay In at recen to-morrow."
"Don't cry!" exclaimed her father.
"I'll get It for you. Excuse me a min
ute, Ilond."
Then he followed Clara from the
room, and went into a close session
with the problem.
Mra. Hamilton and Mr. Ilond dis
cussed every subject under tbe sun
while they waited for Mr. Hamilton
to return. At last they heard him In
the adjoining room throw down tbe
hook and declare that the anawer In
the back was wrong. Tbe man who
wrote the book did not know what be
was about that was all.
"No, papa," piped Clara. "Teacher
aald the answer was right."
Now Mr. ftond had more than once
In bis district school-days been pro
nounced a "born mathematician. He
promptly offered to work the problem
for Clara, and tbe dog-eared arithme
tic waa turned over to him. After a
quarter of an hour, during which only
his hard breathing disturbed tbe quiet
of tbe room, be announced that tbe
problem was solved. So Clara went
to bed happy.
Tbe next evening, as soon as dinner
wns over, Mr. Bond complacently of
fered to help Clara with ber arithme
tic, giving Mr. Hamilton at the same
time a aly dig about bis Inefficiency,
lint Clara bung back, and said she
wanted ber mamma to help her.
"Oh, do let Mr. Ilond help you! He
can do them so quickly!" exclaimed
Clara's mother.
Still Clara shook her head, and when
tbey continued to urge her, she blurted
out that Mr. Bond had not worked tbe
problem right tbe nlgbt before.
"Why, be bad the right answer,"
said Clara'a mother, in confusion.
"Yes, but he didn't do it right," ex
plained Clara. "Teacher aaya we
abouldn't Just work for tbe answer,
but should know the logical steps by
which it is worked. He worked it
backward."
All eyes sought Mr. Bond, who
meekly confessed the Justice of tho
blunt accuaatlon.
GLUT OF ENGLISH QHOST&
Manjr tyooks An Appearing In Ens
land Jast Now.
A strange epidemic of ghosts la
creeping ever tbe country, saya the
London Express.
During the last day or two reputed
spooks have been discerned at Tweed-
mouth and Coed-ICernew, near New
port, wales, and are still unlaid.
Tbe Tweedmonth apparition takes
tbe shape of a woman In white, with
piquantly contrasting red hair. It fre
quents the churchyard and chases wo
men and children.
The Coed-Kernew ghost turns pic
tures face to the wall. Jams lumps of
heef Into pint Jugs and causes beds to
walk downstairs.
Tbe real explanation of tbe present
glut of phantoms was given to an Ex
press representative yesterday by one
who has made a long and patient study
of the bablts of spooks.
"The year Just over," said he, "waa
singularly Jejune of properly authenti
cated ghosts. Hardly a single new
apparition of any Importance mani
fested Itself.
"Of course the old gbosta are Just as
good as ever, but they are destitute of
novelty.
"Tho Elizabethan phantom Is still to
bo seen at Greenwich and, generally
speaking, a good ghost may still be
looked for wherever a Tudor palace
hns been known to exist

cured of monthly pains by tak

pood advice and felt that my case waa
hopeless, but ahe kept at mo until I
