A Game for n winters Evening.

Perhaps it is not exactly game, but it might
be easily made into one. don't know what to
call il either, unless it be .'Journey by the
Fireside, )" or it may be the "Home Encyclope-
dia." The idea is this: Some one selects an OBJ
ject, any common one whatever, and questions
the other. Take, for illustration, the first thing
before me-my lamp. See what a lot OF Ques-
tions may come out of this. What Is the lamp
made of? What Is brass? What Is zinc? Where
does it come from? In what shape is il found?
What color? Does it melt easily or not? What
Is ii used for besides to make brass? So the same
series or longer of questions about the copper.
The base of the lamp has lead run into It TO
make it heavy, and whole lot more can be
learned about that. Then the chimney and
shade are glass, and probably but very few can
tell much about so common a thing as that.
The wick-that Is, of course, cotton What Is
cotton? what part of the plantY where Is IL
grown and all about II? why Is the wick male
hollow, In the fern Of cylinder? Then the
oil-there is quite a story about that Here s
single article In the room that would keep lot
of bright boys and girls probably at work q
whole evening. Such a looking up or dictona-
ries and other books beforeisome or the questions
could be properly answered! and no doubt some
OF the Older people would find themselves at
their wits ends" to answer all the questions
that could be put. hope some OF the boys aud
girls will try this, for they will ind out In the

the les they handle and use every day, and in

The Fox-HouND.-The old savage ideal of
beauty was the lion, type Of mere massive force.
That was succeeded BY an over civilized ideal,
say the fawn, type Of delicate grace. By cum
ming breeding and crossing, through long CEN
turtles, man has combined both, and has created
the fox hound, lion and fswn in one, just as he
might create noble human beings, did he take
half as much trouble about politics lin the
true old sense of the word) rs he does about
fowls. Look at that old hound, who stands
doubtful, looking up at his master for advice;
Look at the severity, delicacy, hghtness, of
every curve. His head Is timer than
deer's; his hind legs tense as steel springs;
his fore legs straight a. arrows; and yet
see the depth of chest, the sweep OF loin; the
breadth of paw, the mass OF arm ana tn'gn,
