One of the authors had the surname James. There are eight clues:
(1) Rita read the five stories in this order from first to last: the story by the author surnamed Gardon, the one set on the moon, the one by Doris, Land's Lost, and the story about an impending ice age.
(2) Ellery's story and Nightmares both take place on Earth. Of the two Rita read the one that takes place under the sea some time before she read the one set in the mountains.
(3) Ms Frederick isn't the woman who wrote about nuclear explosions.
(4) As Rita set down Mr Irving's manuscript and picked up October Oppression she realised that she knew both authors personally, and that they were soon to be married to each other.
(5) Henderson's story and the story about killer plants take place, not necessarily respectively, on Mars and Venus; Rita didn't read these two stories consecutively.
(6) Blake didn't write Mushroom Madness.
(7) Before reading their stories, Rita had never heard of the authors of either the story set on Mars or the one about hostile aliens.
(8) After finishing Celeste's story, Rita read at least one other story before getting to Killer Time.

The mixtures P, Q, R, S and T are mixed in a particular ratio. As a result of which the percentage of milk in the resultant mixture becomes $58.35 \%$. What is the particular ratio in which the mixtures P, Q, $\mathrm{R}, \mathrm{S}$ and T respectively are mixed if in the resultant mixture the amount of the mixture $\mathrm{Q}$ was one- third of the amount of the mixture $P$ whereas the amount of the mixture $S$ was double the amount of the mixture Q. Also, in the resultant mixture the amount of the mixture T was $25 \%$ more than the amount of the mixture S?
