A Puzzle a Day

A man owned a sauare piece of ground. He wished to keep onefourth of it for himself; and to divide the remainder among his four sons, each of whom must receive a plot of land exactly the same in size and shape as those of his three brothers. The father, moreover, decided that his share must adjoin each plot belonging to the four sons, with tin equal amount of frontage on each one. How did he divide the land? Yesterday’s answer. The original number is “3. Multiplied by itself (3x3) gives 9, which inverted (6) is the sum of the original number added to itself (3 plus 3). " When the result (9) is multiplied by itself (9x9) it forms anew result (81), which, reversed (IS), is the sum of the result added to itself (9 plus 9).

HEALED HIS RUPTURE I was badly ruptured while lifting a trunk several years ago. Trusses did me no good. Finally I got hold of something that quickly and completely cured me. Years have passed ami thi rupture has never returned, although I am doing bard work as a carpenter. There was no operation, no lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to sell, but will give full information about h'Ar you may find complete relief without operation, if you write to me. Eugene M Pullen, Carpenter. V2O-K Marcellus Avenue. Manasquan. N. J. Better cut out this notice iand show it to any others who are ruptured—you may save a life or at least stop the misery* of rupture and the worry and danger.—Advertisement.

"I hardly had any appetite at all, and I had a languid feeling and severe pains in head. I felt so bad that I had to quit work. No one knows how nervous and tired I got along about 4 o’clock in the afternoon. I was just a physical wreck—l had tried everything. Then the demonstrator tcld me about Todd’s Tonic and I tried it, and it certainly has given me great relief. My sleep is now refreshing and I digest my food readily. After taking only two bottles of Todd’s Tonic I am now able to work and, believe me, that is surely encouraging. I always keep Todd’s Tonic on hand and when I feel tired or depressed I take a wineglassful and it helps me wonderfully. No more headaches —no more pain after eating. 1 recommend Todd’s Tonic to all who are discouraged. No matter how much you have doctored without results, just try 'Todd’s Tonic and see the wnoderful results, you will obtain.”—HAßßY KENNEDY, 2707 Shelby Street, Indianapolis, Ind. Todd’s Tonic, with its wine-like flavor, is most pleasant to take. Sold at the Haag Drug Company’s 8 Stores and other good drug stores In Indianapolis.
