Swinging Ring an Indoor Game.
Here Is a pastime that Is real fun,
for it depends on skill. It Is fun even
when played alone, for you can try to
beat your own best previous score,
and every time you try It you become
Just so much more expert. It Is for
girls as well as boys.
You need two nails, a string and a
ring of some hind, about six Inches In
diamctor. If you have no old curtain
ring or something else of that sort,
you can easily make a ring that will
serve your purpose by getting a thin
piece of board, marking a circle seven
1 The Swinging Ring.
Inches In diameter on Its surface, and
inside of that another circle six Inches
In diameter. Now drive a nail In the
celling, if there Is no hook for a lamp
or chandelier already there, and an
other nail In the wall, with Its bead
pointing upward at any angle of
about 45 deg. Suspend your ring from
the nail In the celling by a string Just
long enough to allow the ring to swing
its center over the nail in the side
wall and catch there. Now you are
ready to begin.
Stand by the nail In the side of the
wall with your right hand holding the
ring close to the nail. Now push the
ring away from you, trying to make it
swing back and hook over the ring.
There! Of course you didn't do it! The
ring came back and struck the nail
but did not catch on it. In order to
catch on the projecting nail the ring
must swing In a circle. If you do It
once out of your first 10 trials you are
lucky. It requires a very nice sense of
distance, a careful eye and a light
touch to do it Just right. Not so easy
as It seems. Is it?
It takes a lot of practice to score
three out of five tries. Get your
brother to try It with you, and he will
be astonished to find he Is no better
at this than you are. In fact, girls are
best at this game, and, strange as it
may seem, their Judgment of distance
Is more accurate.
Try a game of 50 points, with "in
nings" of 10 points each.
Of course, the winner is the one
who rings the nail the most times
out of the CO trials.
Conundrums.
Why are ladles the biggest thieves
In existence?
Because they steel their petticoats,
bone their stays, crib their babies and
hook their dresses.
An old woman in a red cloak was
crossing a field in which a goat was
feeding; what strange transformation
suddenly took place T
The goat turned to butter, and the
old woman became a scarlet runner.
Why is a miss not as good as a
mlleT
Because a miss has only two feet,
and a mile has 6,280.
Why Is an avaricious man like one
with a short memory?
Because he is always forgetting.
Why is the letter A the best rem
edy for a deaf woman?'
Because It makes her hear.
What time is it when the clock
strikes thirteen?
, Time the clock was fixed.
On what did Noah live when he was
in the ark?
On water.
"Rushing Old Maid."
This Is an amusing round game, but
we want a pack of cards for this.
The number of cards dealt is accord
ing to the number of people who are
pluylng. If there are four players
only, tho court cards and aces will be
needed. If there are five players the
tour nines will be required, and so on.
Four cards are dealt to each player,
and when the captain says "Pass"
everybody passes on one of his cards
to his next door neighbor. The aim of
the players is to get four knaves or
four queens or kings. When a new
card is passed to a player be keeps
it if it helps his "hand," and gives
away one of his old cards the next
time the captain says "Pass." Direct
ly a player has collected four court
cards of one kind he throws them
flown on the table, exclaiming "I am
courted!" The, cards then have to be
gathered up and dealt over again.
When the player gets tour more court
cards to match, he says, "I am en
gaged," four more are required be
fore ha can briskly tar, "Banna up,"
and four more before ho says, "I am
married,", which means that he has
won the game. When the game Is fin
ished all the players are In different
stages some are courted, some en
gaged, and some have got as far as
getting their ' banns put up, whilst
others have no adventures at all. If
a player calls "Banns up," before he
has been "Engaged," he has to re
main where ha was.
An Interesting Game.
Among stirring games, one that is
always a success when played with
energy. Is that called the Schoolmas
ter. The one of the party who volun
teers to be master of the ceremony
places himself In front of bis class,
who are all seated In a row. If agree
able, he can examine his subjects In
all the different branches of education
In succession, or he may go from one
to the other discriminate. Suppos
ing, however, ho decides to begin
with natural history, he will proceed
as follows: rotating to the pupil at
the top of the class, he asks the name
of a bird beginning with C. Should
the pupil not name a bird beginning
with this letter by the time the mas
ter has counted ten, It is passed on im
mediately to the next, who. If suc
cessful, and cnlU out "Cuckoo" r
"Crow," etc., In time, goes above the
one who has failed.
Authors, singers, actors or any
thing else may be chosen, If the school
maRter should think proper, as sub
ject! for examination; but. whatever
may be selected, the questions must
follow each other with very great ra
pidity, or the charm of the game will
be wanting.
The Game of Mosaics.
Here is a game that gives one an
opportunity to exercise ingenuity and
taste.
Oet some stiff cardboard, the kind
that has one color on one side and
another on the back. If you want to
use cardboard taken from old paste
board boxes, color the sides with
water colors. Then cut out two
squares, one an Inch square, the other
an Inch and three-quarters. Cut one
And finally two triangles, an Inch and
a quarter and two inches and a quar
ter at the base. The more colors you
have on these pieces the more com
binations in mosaic you can make; and
oblong an Inch and a halt long and
one-quarter of an inch wide, and an
other three Inches long and half an
Inch wide. Cut out two circles, one
an inch in diameter and the other an
Inch and three-quarters In diameter.
If you wish you may add to them by
making other circles, etc., of various
sizes. If you have made the parts
well, cutting the edges porfectly, the

you may have on your wall during the

Funnel Fountain Easy to Make.
Boys always love to fuss with
water or to watch a fountain play.
Making the Fountain Play.
Now here is a sort of fountain and
pump combined which is so slmpli
that it would be a pity if any boy
should be deprived, through ignorance,
of the pleasure of seeing It work.
The apparatus needed is only a com
mon tin funnel, the bigger the better.
It Is worked by plunging It with th
mouth down, in a bathtub or washtub
half full of water. If you press th
funnel down rapidly and forcibly the
water under It, not being able to get
out of the way quickly enough, will
be pressed up Into the funnel, and,
because of the tapering form of tht
latter a Jet of water will be forced
out of the small end of the funnel and
and will rise to a height that will sur
prise you. With a funnel which has
wide mouth and a small tube, you
can make a fountain ten feet high.
Of course, you understand that the
fountain does not play all the time,
but that a Jet shoots up each time
you force the funnel down.
You see, aUo. that this Is not a pan
lor entertainment. The trick should
be done out of doors, If possible. It
not, you might try It In the bathroom
or the laundry. If you remembei
that It is neither necessary nor de
sirable to force the Jet quite to the
colling, nor yet to make it shoot
across the room.
Needle Book.
Take a piece of brown leather and
cut out a maple leaf from it. . Then
take a piece of pink leather and do the
same. Then stitch these loaves so a
to show the veins.
After that cut three leaves from
flannel cloth, Buttonhole stitch them
with either pink, white or brown. Tl
all together with a piece of ribbon, and I
you will have
needle book.
around each month should be pf the
same color as the letters of the
month. Now paint the flowers and
leaves in their natural colors and
you will have as pretty a calendar as
one oould wish to see. It would be
well to paste the complete calendar on
to pasteboard or stouter paper before
beginning to paint it. The first throe
months have been given, and the re
maining months will be given la suc

almost every day. William Caxton, the
father of English literature, was i
practical printer. What were J. P

Senator Plumb, of Kansns, and James
J. Hogg, ex-Governor of Texas, were
nil printers, nnd the loader of science

In largo cities and towns. It is not

Mrs. Juniper entered the doctor's
efllce, dragging by the baud an over
arrown boy of fourteen. She was ex
sited nnd impatient; he was dogged and
glum. M0, doctor, ho has lost his voice!
He bosn't spoken a word for two days,
she said.
The boy looked at her sullenly, and
suffered the doctor to hold bis face up
to tho light.
"Open your mouth. H'm! Tongue
all right?"
"Ya-ah.H
"Hold your head up and let mo look
at your throat. Seems to be nothing
the trouble there. Push your tongue
out. Now pull it back. Feel all right?'
"Ya-ah."
"Why, Mrs. Juniper, thero is nothing
the matter with him," snld the doctor,
impatiently. "Boy, why don't you
talk?"
"How can I when I ain't got any
thiug to say?"
Cool.
"Glad to meet you, old chop," he
said, as he linked arms with a friend
whom he had met In the street. "Just
lend me a sovereign for to-day."
"Would be delighted." the friend re
joined, "but I buve not got it; see!"
He opened his purse Its wbolo con
tents was a half -sovereign.
"Must do, I suppose, for the pres
ent," snld the prince of borrower, as
he picked the coin out daintily with
thumb and forefinger. "Ta, to; take
care of yourself," and walked away.
But he returned hastily. "Miud, dou't
forget you owe me a half sovereign."
"I owo you!" gasped tho automatic
lender. -
"Of course. I meant to borrow a
sovereign from you I only got a half.
You owe mi the other hitlf. See?

Czar dreamed the following singular
dream. Ho saw thn i cows, one fat.
one lean, and one blind. The next day
ho sent for tho metropolitan rulladlu
and begged him to explain the dream
but the metropolitan declined. The
Czar then sont for Father John of
Kronstndt, and made the same request
to blm. Father John stroked his long
curly hair with bis band and made re
ply In the following words: 'Your
majesty, I understand your dream in
this way: The fat cow is the finnnce
minister, tho lean one Is the Russian
people, and the blind one ' 'Don
bo afraid: co on." said the Czar. 'Tb
blind cow is your majesty!'"
