docer John la it seventh (trade ntudent
In the public schools, lie nsUi-d hla
father to help hliu solro tho followlng
problem! "A., nuked how much money lip bait
In tho bank, replied, 'If I had SKI
more I would bare $1,000 more than
half what I now have.' How much
money tmd A.V '
"Much a fool problem." inld the tn
then "Trll (lint teacher to ask the
cashier. You have bteii (teetering me
with problems llk lliut for a week
8upKw your lencber naked you how
old you are. Would you tell her 'If I
were ten times as old na I am, dlinln
lebrd by forty! wo, I would be thirty
yean older than dad, ami If dad were
one-fourth a old aa "he now la he
would be my ngeT What would your
teacher do If you answered In such a
tnannor In my day wo had practical
problem In our arithmetic."
In order to InTcstlnoto bta father's
statement John went to the public li
brary and naked for an old arithmetic.
Tbe librarian Rare him Itlcbard'a
Natural Arithmetic, fie turned to the
paea marked "I'racllcal EjercUes"
and reads
"A. puta ula whole flock of abrcp Into
three paaturea. Half go Into one pan
lure, one-third Into another and thirty
two Into a third. How many lu tbe
flock r
That's queer," anld John. "Prnc
tlcal cxcrcliea too. Here la n man who
wanta to find bow many a beep be baa.
He counts tbero ao be will know when
he baa half of them. Tbla half he
puta Into a posture. Then bo couota
out a third and puta It In another pen.
Next be counta what's left and flnde
be haa thirty-two. After a little fl mir
ing bo finds bow many In tbe whole
flock. Very practical 1 rucm drd
didn't study that book."
The next book be examined wsa
Mllno'a Inductive Arithmetic, edition
or 1870. In mtacellansoua example be
found tbe following:
"Two laddere will together Juat reach
tbe top of a building aorenty-flre feet
high. If tbe aborter ladder to two
Utlrde tbe length of the other, what Is
tbe leagtu of each?"
"Why didn't he measure each ladder
aeparatelyr Joha aafced himself. That
problem t not practical. I guraa dad
U older than I thought. 1 want an
older book."
Tbo text written In 1SG8 waa handed
to him. Tbe book waa evidently Influ
enced by tbe civil war. for It waa Oiled
with problem dealing with battering
down fortlflcallnua and the auttcnance
of aoldlera. Oue problem waa;
"If twrlre piece of cannon (eight
een pounder! can baiter down a for
(rota In three bourn, how long will It
take for nineteen twenty-four-pound-era
to batter down tbe ame fortresaT"
"Tbat'a flue for a general. John re
flected, "but dad any that I am going
to be n captain of Induitry."
Another arithmetic of the nme date
had the famoua flib problem with
which John' teacher had troubled him
for ilx weeka before be himself Anally
explained It to tbo class. The flah
problem la:
"Tbe brad of a flab la ten Incbea
long. Ita tnll la aa long as It bead and
one-half the body. The body la ai long
aa tbe bead and tall both. Uow Ions '
tha flihr
Very handy problem for a butcber.
John turned to the Common School
Arithmetic, edition of ISM. "Here
I'm aure to And something good." he
reflected and rend:
"A hare Marin up twelve rod lofore a
hound, but ahe I not perceived by him
till she haa been up one aud one-fourth
minute. Bbe runs nl the rate of tblr-ly-alx
rod u minute, and tbe bound
ruu at the rate of forty rods a min
ute. How lonK will the mew last, aud
what will be tbe dUtunce tho hound
ruuax"
"What difference does It make how
far tbe hound ninar John naked aa be
turned to the Scholar" Arithmetic,
edltlou of 1807. Tbe present high coat
of living made the flrat problem Im
practical for present day purpoaea,
John coucludcd. Tho problem waa aa
follows;
"If I give eighty liuauels of potatoes
at SI cent n bushel and 210 pound of
tlnx at 15 rout a pound for alxty-four
busbolnof salt, what U tho salt worth
a bushel?"
Another problem waa: .
"A good taun drlrlng hi gueat to
market vn met by another, who said,
flood morrow, master, with your 100
gcem".' Snys he In reply, 'I have tint
100 geese, but If I bad bo(f aa many
as I now have and two and one-half
geese besides the uuntber I uow have
ajreudy I should have 100.' "How
many geeae hod the many
How loug would you pormlt a man

"Phew!" John nlghcd as he wiped bis
forehead and Imuded tbe hook back to
the librarian. "Dad must have skipped
these practical problem. - Ktiwa

Mnybo you oarer had occaalon to go

though, you may have learned that tbe

oh, n man told me about It In a place
on Ontario street.
A young man with a worldly wise
expression had Jut walked In. un
hooked a large gold watch from a
chain and banded It to Iha man acres
tho counter for Inspection.
"How many do I cop on tbo chtmcrT"
be Inquired nonchalantly,
"Cough your flgure," anld the duck
behind lite counter.
"Would four aawbuck find you in
the front parlor?"
"Not ao. my rheelld. I c'n get a dray
load of 'era for forty."
"Aw. well, pas mo oTcr alxty Mexi

"Nope. Cosno again. Thirty's too

"Bay, bo. where do yoo think I get

young man with a duguated leer.
"Anyhow, twenty-Are' tbe rock fig

"Twenty-flve on a gilt dial," mar
mured the money lender aa he wrote
out tbe ticket and tbe transaction was
ended.
The next customer waa a red haired
youth with a forehead about one and
one-elgbth Inch high and carrying a
suit of clothe under hi arm.
"How often for tae happy togs?" be
nsked. spreading them out on tbo
counter.
"Up to you."
"'Bout foar. then. They're gay
one."
"Split." wild the other laconically.
"Better rake It down too. Can't play
tbe high one."
"Wbut-on'y a double on theia giddy
rag?" In a tone of Injury.
-Two' tbe limit."
"You win." And. taking the two dol

FAULTS OF GOLFERS.
To Cur Them the Play of Exparte
Should Be Studlsa.
Tbe common fautta of the golfer
may be named In tbe following order
of Importance: Swinging too q sickly,
taking the eye off the ball, holding the
left band under the club, keeping tbe
bands too near the body and standing
too near tbe ball.
The easiest, says Outing Indeed, tbe
only satisfactory way of curing all
these faults la to go out and watch
aome drat class experts play. If you
cannot And any expert of tbe Aral
clas go for the best available.
Thl. of course, t rudimentary ad
vice and certainly not original. Tbe
yeaagest caddie at St Andrew baa
learned to request hi master to keep
hi eye on tbe ball and not to pre.
The troublo 1 that no amount of book
teaching will make you follow tbla ad
vice. There hi only one way to hit a golf
ball. Yon must watch a good player
and Imitate what ho doe. Moat be
ginner make tbe aerloua mistake of
taking leaaon from profewdonale who
watch their pupil play and try to cor
rect them. Tbe pupil would get twice
aa much good out of tha lemon if he
would watch the profeaatonal play aud
think as little aa possible about him
self. The human being U naturally Imita
tive. If you alt and watch a good ten
nis match between first class players
you will unconsciously ("Blab- your
atroke better tbe next time you take
up a racket. With golf tbla b- par
ticularly true, because nothing Is so Im
portant aa tbe rhythmical timing of
tbe atroke which dUUnguUhee a good
player from bad.

Hla Own Hands.
A fashionable painter, noted for bis
proline output, was discussing at a
studio tea In New York a recent scan
dal In tbe picture trade.
"Look here, old man, said a noted
etcher, "do you paint alt your owu
pictures?"
"I do," tho other answered hotly,
"and with my own hands toe,"
"And what do you pay your bandar
the etcher Inquired, "I'm thinking of
starting an art factory myself."
