NEW YEAR GAMES.
Sid Fashioned Amusement to lVlwd
I'p the Holiday.
The old fashion of game playing
Kerns to bo left to children nowadays,
In spite of the merry frolics that mem
ory oan recall. But in holiday time the
most staid and stately are willing to bo
foolish for tho sake of the little ones,
and then all games, new and old, aro
Welcomed.
Did you ever try "brothers of pity?"
Sheets of newspapers aro twisted into
hollow cones so as to completely cover
tho hoads of the players. Two small
oval holes are out in each cap so that
only the eyes of tho wearer are seen. Six
or eight people put on these caps and
sit in a row, with a big sheet or table
cloth held in front to conceal tho whale
of thoir bodies. These brothers are set
in a good light, and (he rest of the com
pany is then brought into tho task of
guessing thoir names. The fun lies in
tho fact that one's nearest and dearest
is often a little doubtful as to the color
of ono's eyes, and much laughter is
provoked when "mother" does not rec
ognize "father" nor sisters their broth
ers.
Tho "game of moods" is a good ouo.
A person is sent from tho room, and
tho rest agree to answer his questions
in a particular tone—rudely, patroniz
ingly, absently, lovingly or as they de
oido. On his return ho questions each
player in turn, and when all have an
swered in tho chosen mood he must
guess what tho word is. If ho guesses
wrong, ho must go round again, hut
each must spare no pains to mako the
mood clear.
"Hunt the whistle" is an old favor
ite, but it can only be played onco at
tho same party, since all but ouo know
tho secret. A player is led blindfolded
into a ring of chairs on which all tho
others aro seated. A deft hand fastens a
small whistle to tho back of tho blind
victim by means of a long string with
a hook at one end of it.
For this whistle ho must hunt, tho
others catching it and blowing it at ev
ery turn, and the effort to discover its
whereabouts is often long delayed.—

NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS.
Tills Tells of One, lint It Unopened
on Cllrlstnins.
Speaking of Christmas cheer, new
year resolutions and mended ways, hero
is a littlo story that embraces them all.
"It conies from tho lower walks of
life," as tho story teller would put it—
those walks that tho dainty woman of
good fortune seldom sees tho dismal and
intricate windings of. But it is down
among these winding ways that I think
the echoos of the Christmas chimes and
the hope that comes from the beautiful
Christmas story mean most when tlioy
aro heard, and so I will tell it.
Thore was small promise of a happier
day than usual in the little two rooms
"back" wbere an industrious littlo wo
man—what her name is does not mat
ter—and her three tiny children, all as
neat as now pins, sat and waited.
Waited—for what?
It was Christmas eve, and thero is
always plenty to wait for on that eve—
even Santa Claus himself might come!
But the waiting in the little two rooms
"back" was of the anxious sort. It was
for an unsteady footstep. Holidays al
ways moant that tho footstep would be
just a trifie more unsteady than at other
times.
It was presently beard—just as the
faintest sound of the chiming bells stole
up to tho two rooms "back"—but it
was a lighter and more sober tread than
the industrious little woman and her
three neat toddlers had hoard for a long
time. It was the step that was the out
como of a good resolution made just a
littlo in advance of tho now year and
in time to make Christmas day very
bright for all in tho two rooms "back."
Thore was a tiny Christmas tree next
morning for the children, who had been
hurried into bed as soon as tho footsteps
were heard in tho court below, and
thero was n turkey for all, and "all
that with tho turkey goes."
This was a year ago aud now a few
days over. Tho little industrious wom
an does uot do so many "family wash
ings" nowadays as formerly, and when
she took home hor last small bundle of
beautifully ironed linen to its owner on
tho Christmas eve that has just gone her
face looked very rosy aud smiliug, for
sho said: "The childreu will have a
good Christmas tomorrow. John he
hasn't drank a drop for this uight one
year."—St. Louis Republic.
New Year In China.
New Year is the national pay day in
China. All accounts must be Squared
up at that time, aud the mau who can't
raise money enough to pay his debts
has to go into bankruptcy, says an ex
ohange. The laws are such that the
creditor can enter tbo debtor's house
and take what be pleases if there is no
settlement. To prevent such action fam
ilies club together and make all sorts of
compromises to keep up the business
reputation of the clan. New Year is a
great day for the pawnbrokers. Their
shops aro crowded with people who
want to redeem their best clothes beforu
the new year. There are crowds also
Who want to pawn other things in order
to get money to pay their debts. Pawn
brokers receive high rates of interest,
in which they are protected by tho gov
ernment—Omaha World-Hqfald.
The New Year.
Here's a Happy Now Year!
Sunshine's in the sky.
Join the throng
And swell the song
That comes u-floatin by.
Wear a smilo fur strangers;
Welcome all ycr kin;
Cnrve the roast
And give a toast
To folks that happens In.
Wish we all may prosper
In whate'er wo do.
An we must
Ef each'U just
Help the others through.

!N COUNTY KERRY.
The Jolly Irishman Mnkex Merry on
Nm t Vear's liny.
The celebration of Now Year's is a
uk st important festival it .ywhero in
Ireland, but perhaps now hero more so
Hum in Kerry. Tinao it is the day of
fairs and stoepleclns • lazy, knowing
looking donkeys being tho principal
participants in the latter—and it is the
ilay on which the itinerant fakir bases
ul 1 his hopes of selling lead for silver
iiud washed copper for "puro 18 carat
gold."
At 0 o'clock on New Year's ovo tho
saucepans and "pippins" in tho littlo
thatched cottages aro reflecting their
gala day polish and tho holly and laurel
and ivy on the window sills aro doing
their best to outshine tho sprigs of mis
tletoe that brighten tho old kitchen ceil
ing. Wax candles of all sines and colors
(having soft sods of turf for candle
sticks) adorn tho upper windows of tho
house and light tho way of tho travelor
along tho "boreeu" or through the
mountain intricacies. Flitclms of bacon
are set aside; luckless chickens ("poor
cratliurs") liavo their heads taken off;
broad griddlo cukos and round oven
cakes are baked over tho warm turf firo
with surprising rapidity, and children
aro set at stoning raisins for tho New
Year's cake.
, They have a pretty enstorn in Kerry
in connection with tiiis. If a member
of the family has died or has omigrated
to America or tho colonies, a cake is
made and stamped with tho name of
the illist nt olio.
Midnight mass is celebrated in tho
country chapels, and a more picturesrjno
sight can hardly bo conceived than
when hundreds of country men and
women, clad in their brightest and gay
est, mako their way along tlio roads,
sonio on foot, some in donkey carts and
some in tho jaunting ears which aro tho
pride of every Kerry heart.
After mass the worshipers become
revelers, and along tb i\ ad to tbeir
homes they sing New 1 ear's carols and
beat improvised drums. As they go
members of tho party knock at tho doors
on the way, screaming: "Get tip, lazy
bones! Y'on'vo slept siuco last year!"
Tho man of the house gets up and gives
the visitors a "dlirap o' tho cratliur" or
a bowl of goat's milk and "holiday
cake," gild they sing his praises until
they get to tho next iiouso, but woe to
tho inhospitable one who refuses them
entrance, for tho peculiarities of him
self and his wife aro enlarged np n, and
every mean tale that tradition has gath
ered about tho family is rehashed and
given utterance to. Pittsburg Dis
patch.
NEW YEAR'S IN ROME.
llow Hit- Klnir unit Qncvn of Itulr
Receive Their <aiicMtn.
At Romo tho Ist of January assumes
additional importance from the fact
that it is the day on which King Hum
bert and Queen Margherita present an
nual gifts to their relatives and to the
members of thoir household, and inas
much as they aro both of them very
generous and seem to know by intuition
just what will give most pleasure to the
recipients tho festival at tho court of
tho Quiriual is characterized by an ap
poarance of infinitely greater en joyniont
and happiness than obtain either at
Vienna ot nt Berlin. The king and
queen stand on the dais under the
canopy in front of their chair of state in
the tbroneroom to receive with duo for
mality tho various parliamentary, mili
tary, judicial and administrative dele
gations commissioned to lay at tho feet
of their majesties the good wishes of the
various bodies which they represent.
But as soon as this is over tho king
begins to stroll about the various apart
ments, and a good deal of freedom and
abandon prevail until tho supper hour
is announced. The royal party then
march in procession to a small supper
room and with the embassadors and
their wives take their places at tablos
adorned with that magnificent golden
plate for which the houso of Savoy is so
famous, while tho remainder of the
guests rush pellmell and ill a very un
dignified fashion to tho buffets, which
aro literally taken by storm and quickly
devastated, as far as everything i the
nature of iood or drink is concerned.

blankbook of 805 pages, which bu '

S )mo pages will bo stained with tears.
Some will ho crumpled as if clutched in
despair. Some will contain words of
hato and auger, which will burn tho
page whoreou they are written. Other
; pages will be filled with the record of
| "something accomplished, something
■ done," which has "earned a night's re
j pose." Thero will bo tho record of bat
tles fought, and ut tho end of the year
1 we can turn back and seewhonwe have

! will be written upon these pages in let-
I ters of gold an account of tho self sacri
fices, loves and faithful devotions.—'Se

Vnrylnic New Year Dates.
In all Christian countries it is now
nominally celebrated on the Ist day of
January, but this day in tho Grogorian
calendar occurs 12 days earlier than in
tho Julian. For this roasou Russia and
Greece, which still go by the Julian
calendar, celebrato Jan. 1 on our Jan.
18.
Many of tho ancient nations began
their new year on Sopt. 22, at tho au
tumnal equinox. Tho Romans reckoned,
until tho time of Julius Ciesar, their
new year from tho winter solstico. Tho
Jews, to this day, begin their now year
I at a date which, roughly speaking, cor
responds to our September.—Selcctod.

The appraisers of the estate of the
late Balser Weber, the Howard mer
chant who died recently, have filed
their statement at Bellefonte, which
shows the deceased to have left
personal property to the value of
$199,077. In addition there is real
estate which will bring the estate of
the deceased up to almost $250,000.
Balser Weber was an illustration of
what a young man with determination
can do in this country. He landed
from Germany in 1849 with but $2.50
to his name, but at once went to work
at anything he could get to do. First
tanning, then peddling and finally
drifting to Howard, where he engaged
in the mercantile business in 1858,
continuing there until his death. In
that time he amassed a fortuhe of
$250,000. The appraisment shows in
holdings an aggregate of 2,750 shares
ol railroad and bank stock, worth at
par $150,000. The entire estate is
bequeathed to the five surviving child
ren.
Schley Was Upset.
F.ven heroes get upset. Admiral !
Schley, a few nights ago was the guest
of a large part of Philadelphia—of as
much of it as could fill one ol the
theatres. He sat in a box with the
handsome and benign Colonel Mc-
Clure, and every movement he made
was watched by the thousands in the
place. If he took a glass of water
they applauded. If he bowed to an
acquaintance they applauded. If he
smiled they applauded. In fact, the
whole evening was an incessant
ovation.
But Schley's defeat came at the end
of the second act. He arose with his
usual grace and started to the next
box to call on frie ids, but he had not
taken two steps before a deep bass
voice from the upper gallery rolled
forth. "Let's all go out and take a
beer," placing the accent on the "all.'
The hero collapsed, sank in a chair
and shook with laughter, while the
audience shrieked.— Ex.
Like the historic ghost that will not
down, the question of a new county,
to be formed of the southern part of
I.uzerne and the northern part of
Schuylkill, is being discussed with
much earnestness and intensity of feel
ing. The Pottsville people and the
Southern Schuylkill people are, of
course, displeased. They want to re
tain all ot their territory and claim
that there is no immediate reason for
the change. The Schuylkill voters who
want the new county declare that it is
too far and too expensive for them to
continut going to Pottsville to attend
court.
CATARRH CANNOT BE CURED by
local applications, as they cannot
reach the seat ot the disease. Ca
tarrh is a blood or constitutional dis
ease, and in order to cure it you
must take internal remedies. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and
ac,s directly on the blood and muc
ous surfaces. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
not a quack medicine. It was pre
scribed by one of the best physicians
in this country for years, and is a reg
ular perscription. It is composed of
the best tonics known, combined with
the best blood purifiers, acting directly
on the mucous surfaces. The perfect
combination of the two ingredents is
what produces such wonderful results
in curing catarrh. Send lor testimonials,

A blessed thing to have is one

worst in us. and who loves lis in
spite of all our faults; who will

| the world flatters us and laughs at
us behind our backs; who will
give us counsel and reproof in the
days of prosperity and self-conceit ;
but who, again, will comfort and
encourage us in the day of diffi

leaves us alone to fight our own
battles as we can.—Charles Kings
