An Indian native used a clever ruse to leak university exam questions in Calcutta. A White printer printed papers early, while a coolie concealed copies under his loincloth and used a sheet of white paper and a mirror to transfer questions to students. The remark ends with a disparaging note about the oriental mind.
A National Kindergarten Association article urges using nature study to build sympathy in children. It covers birds, buds, pests, pussy willows, willow pollen, jack in the pulpit, sycamore balls, hens nests, winter buds, hornet nests, and the value of admitting ignorance to guide curiosity.
The article outlines a government tactic in China where when brigands terrorize a region, authorities negotiate with their leaders. A bandit agrees to reform in exchange for a provincial governorship or similar post, then troops threaten, while public proclamations declare order restored. The scheme yields profits with less risk than robbery.
A fervent orator rants about water and clean water benefits in a hall. He questions Niagara Falls and bathtubs, urging the audience to ponder nature’s gift. Frustrated, the crowd departs while one bemused spectator jokes the speaker has water on the brain.
An expert entertained the Zoological Society of London with a mathematical discussion on egg shapes. Some eggs are spherical, others elliptical or ovoid, with the hen’s eggs typically blunt end foremost. Large eggs tend to come from larger birds, and yolks remain spherical due to constant pressure from the surrounding white fluid.
A comical exchange shows a knight denying a quest to rescue a wife held by a villain, while a page appeals for urgent action. The knight sighs at a day off and dismisses the perilous mission, highlighting playful chivalric humor.
