Thanks Mr. Mahajan

I've read the article, but one can only "span" some texts over two or more
columns rather than split a column into two. I've tried double the column
numbers and span the other text over two columns. But of course it failed
for I want the small inner column to be balanced.

I'm now reading the "page-mul.tex." It is a long and confusing file---I'm
wondering how Hans and other guys wrote such long files that hardly had a
bug---but I really hope I can get some tricks from it.
