SOLUTIONS.

Word Arithmetic. Following are the solutions to the puzzles in last Thursday’s Comic: Woman plus roll plus ark minus man minus lark plus eel minus wool equals REEL. Shoe plus pail plus deer minus spade plus net minus horn plus ark minus leek minus ear equals IT. WITH THREE CONSONANTS AND TWO VOWELS. Two o’s, an s, an 1 and a p. Put them together and spell them to me! ooslp. It spells Sloop; turned hack, Pools; also Loops, which reversed is Spool; it also spells Polos. I have heard of one polo pony, so two or more must be polos—don’t you think?
