A 8nake'a Long Fast.

Xlie Hnnke's Ions fast has been a

from South America last May. Tbe
news that she had consented to put
three whole chickens under her skin
caused excitement and jubilation.
Itcsulurly every ten days Head Keep

but Annie nlwuys scorned them. It
looked a it she was bent on starving

The main quest! c Is, where to buy
the machine. You don't believe In
buying a cheap pair of shears, i"o
you? You know tbey would be poor

and would not cut well and would
break easily.

Great Ambition.
Many of our small boy. bar an am
bition to grow up and become street
car conductors and policemen. Tbe
ambition of tbe small boy of Morocco
is to become the bearer of tbe umbrel
la, which Is an office of the hlRheat
dignity In the country. Wben tbe sul
tan goes abroad som one walks close
behind him and curries a great umbrel
la of scarlet and gold to shield bis
majesty from the rays of the sun.
Another great oflklnl Is the fly flick
er, appointed to shoo away all flies
from tbe sultan's person The tea
maker is a person of quite jts much Im
portance as tbe other two. tie carries
tbe teapot with great dignity and has
everything ready to make a cup of
weet tea flavored with mint whenever
tbe sultan may ask for it. and be Is as
likely to ask for It one minute as an
other. American boys and men would
think these positions silly, but tbe
small boys of Morocco have no ambi
tion greater than to occupy one of
these when they grow up.
Gam of Clothespins.
A good game Is "clothespins." The
company choose sides aud have an um
pire. Each side stands in a row. Get
about forty clothespins twenty for
each side or any number thut you cun
just bold In your two bands.
Dace each pack of plus on the floor
in front of tbe leader of each side. As
the umpire gives the signal the leaders
clap their bands three times, pick up
the plus Itake the clothespins by the
side near to you. so us to pass tbem
easily) and pass them to the uext per
son, be to tbe next, and so on down
until the foot of the line Is reached.
The person at the foot must put the
pins on the floor, clap his hand three
times, pick up the pins and pass them
back to the leader at the head of the
line, who puts tbein on the floor. If
any wrsoa drops a pin be must put
tbe pack on the floor, clap his hands
three tiroes, pick up the pins and pass
on. The aim Is to see which side will
flnlsh first. Philadelphia I-editer.
Remembering th. Date.
The difference between a boy who Is
said to have a good memory and an
other who la satd to have a bad one Is
usually only a difference of methods of
thinking. Those who remember read
ily are generally those who think or
derly. What they already know and
what they want to remember are plac
ed side by side In their mentnl store
rooms, so that they can find the one
when they have the other. If yon wish
to remember the year lu which Wash
ington was born, 1732, you will easily
recall It if you think of It whenever you
think of his name. You never forget
Keb. 22 as the dny of the year because
that day Is always spoken of as Wash
ington's birthday.
A Dutch Baby.
In Holland there Is a queer custom
IMnnected wltb the birth of a child.
Tbe proud parents make known to
their neighbors that a boy bas come to
live with them by hanging a pink silk
ball covered with lace on tbe door
knob or knockor. If tbe baby hi a girl
tbere Is a small bit of paper attached
to the ball.
