This cartoon shows a detective, wearing a Sherlock Holmes style hat with a listening device pressed against a wall with other end in his ear to listen to what is happening in the adjacent room. Pictured in the other room are two numbers talking to each other. The number 7 says, "No really, 100 + 34 = 199." Number 2 replies, "I never knew that." The tag line under the cartoon reads, "After weeks of undercover work, Fred verifies that sometimes numbers do lie!"
