No. XCVI.—NOT EASY WHEN YOU KNOW
The solution of the puzzling match rearrangement is as follows:—We repeat the original five square diagram, from which four squares were to be formed by rearranging three matches, and its solution below.
No. XCVII.—SIMPLICITY
When we have constructed this figure with five matches, we can remove three of the matches, and then replace two of them so as to form a similar figure, by moving any three of them a short distance, and then replacing the two that are left behind, in their original positions! This “catch” finds many victims.
