Who broke the mirror?

“Workers in the house always cause

trouble!” Aunt Matilda is visibly irritated

as she tells her complaint to the three

detectives, “I was just having my hallway

repainted. Now I discover that one of the

painters damaged the wardrobe mirror.

He removed it and leaned it against the

wall, but he did it so carelessly that one

of the sides got cracked. I wish I knew

which one of those four fellows it was!”

“Let me take a look at the mirror,”

says James reassuringly to his aunt, as

Carolyn quickly fetches the crime scene

case from SLI’s secret lab. The damage

to the mirror is considerable. “But

wait a minute, what’s that?” mumbles

Carolyn as she fishes out her magnifying

glass, “The culprit left behind a clear

fingerprint.” In two minutes, she has

cleanly removed it and stuck it onto a

file card. A moment later, the aunt’s

fingerprints are also attached to the

card — for a comparison. “So it’s not

your fingerprint,” determine Carolyn and

James after a moment’s inspection.

“Yes, but what now?” complains the

aunt, who has been following their work

with curiosity. “I can’t exactly ask the

painters for their fingerprints.”

“You don’t have to, Auntie.” James

has a great idea. “I know a trickier

way to do it. Offer each one of them a

glass of soda. Pay attention to who gets

which glass, and then give the glasses

to me. Then we’ll have our comparison

fingerprints for sure.”

No sooner said than done. Fifteen

minutes later, the three detectives have

19 good prints lying in front of them

from the four glasses, plus the one from

the mirror. “Now I know who broke the

mirror,” says James triumphantly. Can

you figure it out too?
