"Hotel Green Turf Jewel Robbery: Jacques, 36, plumber was brought up upon the charge of having, abstracted from the jewel-case of the Countess of Morcar the valuable gem known as the Blue Carbuncle. Julia, upper attendant at the hotel, gave her evidence to the effect that she had shown Jacques up to the dressing-room of the Countess of Morcar on the day of the robbery in order that she might solder the second bar of the grate, which was loose. She had remained with Jacques some little time, but had finally been called away. On returning, she found that Jacques had disappeared. The bureau had been forced open, and that the small morocco casket, was lying empty upon the dressing-table. Julia instantly gave the alarm, and Jacques was arrested the same evening, but the stone could not be found either upon his person or in his rooms. Catherine Cusack, maid to the Countess, deposed to having heard Julia cry of dismay on discovering the robbery, and to having rushed into the room, where she found matters as described by the last witness. Inspector Marshall gave evidence as to the arrest of Jacques, who struggled frantically, and protested his innocence in the strongest terms. Evidence of a previous conviction for robbery having been given against the prisoner, the magistrate refused to deal summarily with the offence, but referred it to the Assizes. Jacques, who had shown signs of intense emotion during the proceedings, fainted away at the conclusion and was carried out of the court.” The person who lost her jewel-case was:

question_answer6) The American soldiers were digging shallow trenches right in the middle of the track. Chinhohong wondered what they were up to. Surely, they were not digging slit trenches in the middle of the open track. But their purpose was soon apparent. They were obviously putting down AP mines and laying body trap wires along the track. Fascinated, Chinhohong watched the little khaki figures working with the jerky movements of mechanical toys. In no time at all, they had put in half a dozen brass AP mines and laid several strands of trip wire across the track. Then they had put back the earth and the leaves on the road to make the surface look undisturbed. They finished off soon after nine and then posting a sentry on either side of the bend they began to dig their foxholes on the opposite slope of the hill. Methodically, putting their heads close to the ground, they cleared the intervening undergrowth to give their guns an unrestricted field of fire. Their purpose was clear. They would sit in their foxholes, guarding the track, and ambush any enemy troops that happened to be walking along the track. The trenches were:

question_answer11) Osho retells a Sumatran legend. “God created man and woman together, with joined bodies, so that each was a couple. But it became burdensome. If the husband wanted to go north, the wife was unwilling, so the bodies would have to be dragged together. Or vice versa! It was such a problem that God decided to divide them. But then they got lost in the wide world.' Sumatrans still believe that each one has a partner somewhere, and that people are forever seeking him or her. Osho narrates a Christian story Adam was very alone and depressed. He asked God for a companion, so God created a woman. God asked Adam, “What will you call her?” Adam was ecstatic to have someone to talk, to love, to relate with! He said he'd call her ‘Eve’, ‘Eva’, ‘Havva’. “Why?”, asked God. Adam said, 'Because that means life. She is my life, without her, I was nearly dead”. When deeply in love, a woman becomes God for the man, and vice versa, though ultimately they are just two manifestations of one soul. They are soul mates. The flipside: Often men and women meet and get so fascinated with each other that they think they have found their soul mates. Then they start living together and find that they are living with the wrong person! Such is the power of imagination that takes love to such peaks, only to throw it into abysmal valleys later! What is the belief of Sumatrans?

question_answer15) Being stupid and having no imagination, animals often behave far more sensibly than men. Efficiently and by instinct they do the right, appropriate thing at the right moment- eat when they are hungry, look for water when they feel thirsty, make love in the mating season, rest or play when they have leisure. Men are intelligent and imaginative, they look backwards and ahead, they invent ingenious explanation for observed phenomena, and hey devise elaborate and roundabout means for the achievement of remote ends. Their intelligence, which has made them the masters of the world, often causes them to act like imbeciles. No animal, for example, is clever and imaginative enough to suppose that an eclipse is the work of a serpent devouring the sun. That is the sort of explanation that could occur only to the human mind. And only a human being would dream of making ritual gestures in the hope of influencing, for his own benefit, the outside world. While the animal, obedient to its instinct, goes quietly about its business, man, being endowed with reason and imagination, wastes half his time and energy in doing things that are completely idiotic. In time, it is true, experience teaches him that magic formulas and ceremonial gestures do not give him what he wants. But until experience has taught him- and he takes a surprisingly long time to learn- man's behaviour is in many respects far stellar than that of the animals. Animals:
