Keeping a Straight Face Counts In This Amusing Game Here Is a good game for the boys and girls to play. The players sit in a row or circle, a leader having been chosen, who sits at the end of tbn row or in the middle of the circle. He begins the game by saying, "I have a hen," and tho second player repeats It after him to his left hand neighbor, who In turn repeats it to the player on his left until It has gone the round, when the last player turns to the play er on his right and asks, "Ha3 sho feathers?" This question goes all the way back to the leader, who answers, "She has feathers." This answer Is taken up by the second player until It has gone around, when the last player asks, "Can she walk?" When this question reaches the lead er he answers, "She can walk," and then follow In due course tho ques tion) "How docs she walk?" and (ho answer, "Wlggledy-woggledy, wlggle-dy-woggledy." As the leader gives this answer he Imitates with his hands the walk of a chicken, and each pluyer does the same as he answers. Tho next question Is. "Can she crow?" fol lowed by the answer, "She can crow," which must be accompanied Ii everv case by an Imitation of the crow of n rooster. The great object of the game Is to have It played throughout with out laughter. If any player laughs while he Is asking or answering o question or If he makes any mis take In the words, he must pay a for feit. TO MAKE BIG BUBBLES. Mixture That Will Produce Globes ot Great Durability. This is the way to make big soup bubbles, so tough that they roll about over the carpet for ever so many min utes before they think of breaking: Into a pint of warm water shave o piece of strong brown laundry soap about an inch square. When this Is 'thoroughly dissolved, add a tablespoon ful of gum arable and stir until melted. Then a teaspoonful of glycerin is nec essary and, lastly, a quart of cold water. If the bubble makers are not very strong and know how to keep the wa ter out of their mouths, wonderful col ored ones can be made by separating this mixture Into cups and adding a pinch of different colored dye to each. For little people strawberry or currant Juice for pink bubbles and orange Julca for yellow are perhaps safer. The lye In the soap plus the glycerin increases the brilliancy of the bubbles, and the gum gives them elasticity. Hot water Is necessary to dissolve the various In gredients, but unless cold water la added they expand and break too rap Idly In the blowing. Good Housekeep ing. A Deadly Stream. According to Scraps, near the river Diamante, in Peru, is a most remarka ble death trap In the form of a yellow ish white fluid, like petroleum, as sticky as birdlime. It if sues from the bare wall of a rock on a mountain side, and Its source Is like a tiny vol canic crater, black, bituminous nd very hot. An exploring party wt;h investigated It some years ago found floundering in it a large skunk, which had evidently befn attracted to Its fate by trying to reach one of the nu merous miserable little birds that had been already caught in tho warm ad hesive bath. A great number of skele tons of birds were found on the edge of the stream and several of four leg ged animals. Including marmots and foxes. The Bat' Sense of Touch. -It Is said that the bat has a moro delicate sense of touch than almost any other animal. It flies about at night with great swiftness, and. al though Its eyes are nearly sightless, It seldom comes In contact with any ob ject. This is due altogether to Its highly developed sense of touch. Strange to say, this Is coniincd to the membrane with which It files. Its so called wings. So delicate is Its nerv ous structure that It Is acted on by any object even at a considerable dis tance, and tho bat Is thus warned of its presence. The Witch. Muwer, you called me a witch, you know. So I borrowed gran'muvver'a hood, 'Cause witches they don't never wear any hats, An witches they always have black cats. Bo I'm teachin Tommy to rido on a broom. But up in the nurs'ry I didn't have room To do '1st like witches should. An' so when he's teached to ride on a broom, , Like all the witch cats do. We'll ride through the night 'thout any light An' give all the folks a terrible fright But you won't be 'fraid of your own little maid; I'll whisper to you it's a play 'at I've played An I amn't a wltcb for true! New York Tribune, AS WITHIN, SO WITMUUr. Whatever Is most within us will be bodied forth In our outward lives, If our thoughts are noble and beautiful, our nets, our faces, our bodies, our homes and our creations will all have touches of nobility and beauty. How each thing we do expresses us! This Is especially true of the things wo do unconsciously. Then wo are not posing. The deed Is natural, and nature Is true. Think not of concealing your real chnractcr. A thousand things will be tray you. The physiognomist will read you In your face, the phrenologist in your bend; the expert will see you In your handwriting; the criminologist will know you by your walk, your man ner. In your very finger prints. You ndvertise yourself In your voice, in your gestures, In your eyes, In your lips. Tho only safo way Is to bo right within, then thcro is no skeleton in the closet of tho heart for any one to see. Our best we tell in our work, in our written or spoken words and in our art, for we all have an art, even if it is nothing more than the art of writing letters, of telllug stories or of making love. Some one thing wo do better than others, and here we ox press ourselves at our highest How essential, then, that we have some thing worthy to express! Counterfeits do not pass in character any more than they do In coin. Our homes express us, and as all tho world sees our outer homes, or may do so, It is here that we should place our noblest and greatest expression. This Is not for tho purpose of deceiv ing tho world, but for self help, since with a noble environment the uncon scious effort Is to live up to that en vironment. Then, by placing a beauti ful uud noble concept In our lawns and our estates, we Influence all others for good. Thus we help ourselves and help them. Human beings are crea tures of suggestion. The more uncon sciously the suggestion Is received, the more unimpeded Is Its working. All men receive the noble suggestions con veyed by flowers, fields and trees. All are made more peaceful, more charita ble and more unlversnl by the peace, the charity and tho universality of the grass. AGPARAGUS. One-year-old plants should be used, sowed In rows live or blx feet apart, using about 0,000 plants to the acre. One or two hundred plants will fur-' nlsh enough ubiMii.gu.-. lor tin aver age family. Sandy noli, live triun stones, shrubs and trees. Is best. An old marsh that lias been drained will give excellent results. Plenty of for tlllzer should be used, stable manure being the best. The plants should bi got about live inches deep and thitt.v inches apart In the furrows. Two Inches of soil should be placed about the plants at (irst. leaving the re mnlnder of tho trench unfilled. Soli should be thoroughly pulverized nna should bo worked about once every ten days after planting. The trenches should be gradually filled by hoeing Manure may be applied again after the plants &tart. To keep off tho beetles scatter lime dust while the dew Is on. Keep freo from weeds. For bleached asparagus throw a ridge of soil over tho row as soon as growth is started and cut when plants are six Indies above this ridge. For green asparagus cover with only three Inches of soil and cut when four or five Inches abovo the ground. Twenty or thirty cuttings may bo made a season, and tho plants will last n dozen years If properly manured nnd cultivated each season. With tho right sort of attention this is a most profitable crop. KEEPING GARDEN TOOLS. What would bo said of a carpenter who leaves his saws, planes, hatchets and other tools out In tho weather to rust? Yet tho gardener who is simi larly negligent is Just as culpable. Tho rakes, spades, hoes, pruning knives, trowels nnd other tools used in tho garden may not suffer so much from tho weather as tho finer Implements oC tho worker in wood, but tho crime dif fers in degree, not in kind. Have a dry place for your garden utensils and keep them thcro. This may bo In tho cellar, if that is convenient to the garden, or in an outhouse, or, better still, In a specially constructed box In tho garden Itself. Tho great thing is to have them convenient. The average man can devote only a short time daily to tho garden, so that the minutes 'are precious. If tho tools are kept' in one place, and that place in &isy reach, much time in the course of the season is thus saved. This may seem' like a small Item, but economy counts hero as in all things. Elimination of waste is the keynoto of this ago. and there is nothing that is so much wustcd and at the same time Is so precious as time. BACK YARD FLOWER GARDENS. For city and suburban residents tbo plot in the rear of tho house is often the only nvailublo space for planting flowers. In case this Is not wanted for vegetables or In case only part of It is used as a vegetable garden a charming effect may bo had by planting hardy annuals, such ns asters, nasturtiums', petunias, mignonette, sweet peas and others. These may be placed in tho borders. If there Is more space, tho National Council of Horticulture nlso recommends the following perennials, among others; Larkspur, peonies, ver benas, phlox, columbine, geraniums, heliotrope, dahlias, gladioli, cannas nnd hollyhocks. If tho would be gardener has only n small space bo should chooso only a few of these and should choose them himself. If he doed not get tbo best combination, be win knfcw better next time. . RAILWAY BEAUTY SPOTS. Phlox and Hydrangeas For Stations. Blue Grass For Right of Way. One of the good things for which people havo to thank the railroads Is ' the progress they are making in beau tifying their right of way. It is the practice of the Pennsylva nia, as Moody's Magazine points out, to surround Its passenger stations, which are practically the doorways to towns and cities, with little parks with terraces and gracefully curving paths and roadways. To care for these sta tion parks is-part of the duty of the ' maintenance of way department. Just as it is to keep the rails and ties in ' good order. Flowers and shrubbery' are planted in artistic plots, and gar deners keep them fresh and flourish ing. At a station on the Long Island rail road, which Is a subsidiary of the Pennsylvania, COO trees and shrubs be- sides beds of phlox and hydrangeas' were set out this year. For another station on the Long Island 425 shrubs and twelve trees have been ordered of the so called perennials and ever greens. '' In the open country, too, far from'SJ! towns, tho Pennsylvania has adopted the policy of making Its right of way pleasant to look at Slopes of un sightly rock or dirt are transformed , into green terraces. nenccforth the standard roadbed, when the tracks are In a cut will In clude the sodded slopes. Blue grass , '' used for sodding will prevent tho ero sion which has given engineers so much trouble In times past In helping to solve tho drainage problem the grass Is even more useful than it is orna-' mental. A PASSION FOR ARTICHOKES. That it docs not pay to trust to ap pearances, especially in tho matter of roots, is proved by the following' truo' story; A city family or? buying a little farm In the country for summer took along a man of nil worn who said be was familiar with tho farm in its native lair. This man was faithful, but near sighted and prone to hasty conclusions. One day ho came to the houso in great glco with a bunch of long and fat looking roots found while spading In the garden. These he declared. with .much posltivcncss wero arti chokes. The cook was suspicious, but , j (ho man of all work was so certain that the lady of the house, who had never eaten artichokes, tasted a silver of one of the roots rather gingerly. A lady friend did the same, and the cook followed suit. This was about 4 in ' the afternoon. In the mcantlmo the man of all work J put the "artichokes" in soak for his- llf-ltlAl TTn itrno oa nlntnil t-rrffti Vtla il- And that ho wanted to eat them alt .Jf The cook was the first victim. After II the manner of cooks, sho did not waiti till the family was through dinner, .but J ' Investigated a piece of steak and af, slice of gingerbread while attending to'' her other duties. This was all tho'f silver of "artichoke" needed, and in aVf few minutes there wns a very slckjr1 cook on the premises. Shortly iifterf dinner, while commiserating with the; qook, the mistress also became ill, and the friend was not long behind. t In the meantime tho man of all work i, prepared for his nrtichoke dinner with, all the gusto of a gourmand about (toPr discuss frog legs or tho first straw- berries of the season. Tho cook's ill?j ness did not In the least disturb him, as off the two others followed in quickie-'M? cession ho wns temporarily turned from his infatuation for artichoke by being hastily dispatched for a doctor. There followed Intense excitement In that particular household, and three people remembered all tho horribloi cases of poisoning which they had ever road that is, until too busy with cramps and retchings to remember any thing distinctly. When tho doctor arrived ho pro nounced the supposed "artichoke-" noth ing but common poko root a rank pol-. son. Fortunately the three victims had taken too small a quantity to produce) fatal results. Their "tasting" unques tionably saved tho llfo of tbo man of all work, who has now recovered from his passion for "artichokes" and who In future will form the acquaintance of no root that does not carry a doctor'a pertlflcate ns to its Identity. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy Would nave Saved Him $100.00. "In 1902 I had a very severe at tack of diarrhoea," says R. N. Far rar of Cat If'and, La. "For sovoral weeks I wa unable to do anything. On March 18, 1907, I had a similar attack, and took Chamberlain's Co lic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy which gave me prompt relief. I con sider it ono of the best medicines of Its kind in the world, and had I used it In 1902 believe it would have saved be a hundred dollar .dorisr'rfi , bill." For sale by JOHN PREUSS.
