HUNT 1U: FOR
Take partners and stand opposite each
other in line, as in q "contra-dance.
The one ct the head is the fox her part
ner is the hunter. At signal she starts
and runs or dances down the line, her
partner following. She eau pass through
the line rs she pleases, the players
standing far enough apart TO allow her
to pass easily. The hunter must follow
the exact course Of the fox il he !aries,
lie must pay forfeit. When the fox is
caught the first couple gees to the foot,
aud the next couple cues thro Oh the
same. 1t adds to the jollity Of the game
to keep time to some merry tune like
Fishers Hornpipe."
MUSICAL FRIoHT."
This il IN admirable game, for it af-
forls laughter for MI ages. A young
lady Is requested to take her place at the
piano: some chairs are placed down the
center Of the room, back TO back, Just
one less in number than the players.
Suppose there are fuelrc to play, you
place elcrcn chairs, ten back to buck,
and one extra All dance around the
chairs, hanl in hand, while the lady ut
the piano plays lively tune. Sudden
", sometimes IN the middle Of bar
always inst when least expectcd-the
player lets her hand. of the piano.
Everybody must try and get seat, and.
rs there are only eleven, one will, Of
course, be left out Then chair is re-
moved. only ten being left The music
begins again, the dancers resume their
dance until another sudden stop, when
another rush is made for seats, and, Of
course, another unfortunate is left out
IN the cold. So the game proceeds, un-
ill but two dancers and Que chair are
left. Then the tug Ut war begins in
earnest, and the excitement 10 ut its
height AT this stage both parties must
ia watched, lest in their eagerness they
should touch the chair before the stop
ping Of the music, which would be un-
fair. To make the game moro exciting,
u box Of candy alar be given 10 the tri-
umphaat occupant Ut the Last remaining
char, sufficient for her to distribute ~
the company.

"She had such pretty ways with her. !"
That was the reason All honest, hard
working man gave for marrying girl Of
whom he knew little else, but who was
really professional bigamist, travelling
about the country aud marrying hus-
band after husband as matter Of specu.

It is the "pretty ways" # woman
which has ruined many y man Of every

II the "pretty WAYS" come from the
heart it is all right. II they are the
result Of cold, selfish, calculating art,

French Drinks.

I'm the cafes the Parisians drink beer,
which chemical analysis shows to be bad
and made with anything Their taan
malt aud hops. 1t is true that you can
have English, Flemish aud Vienncse
beer, but, us a rule, the drink If a coun-
try is only good III that country, unless
it be wine. and many exquisite wines
will not hear transportation. Ahsinthe
il very much drunk, iasomuch that the
hsnrs d. Z absiathe has won for itself Il
place among the twenty-fonr hours Of a
Parisian day. But the absiuthc that
you find in most cafes is adultera'cdand
oxi,ll2ed; the vermoatll. too. is falsified
and the liquors are often "doctorsd. =
Wine, rs W. have seen. is not drunk in
public by respectable people. The
French d,ink. par excellence. and the
Partisan drink, par essence, is coffee !;
that slow poison which supported the

cpet Turkey, is coffee so well roasted,

the commonest cafes You will get cup
of coffee which is nectar rs compared
with the muddy ind acrid mixtures

EUI EvCuAu8 UWtucEluBUs
A LIST Of amusing forfeits, which will
make the company laugh and not offend
the person called Upon TO pay them, are
herewith given:
|. Tut newspaper upon the floor in
such way that two persons can ea,ily
stand upon it aud not he able to touch
each other with their hands. BY putting
the paper in the doorway, one half in
side nnd the other half outside Of the
room, and closing the door over it, the
two persons can easily stand upon it
and still be beyond each Others reach.
2. 10 60 ont Of the room with two
legs and come III with SIX. Not very
difficult to do il one thinks to bring
along chair on the return.
3. To net the dumb servant. The per.
son who has the forfeit to pay must act
out the answers to the questions put by
the master Of the ceremonies, as " How
do you make bread?" "Ho~ do you
make soup ~ etc. This forfeit will cause
much merriment il proper questions are
put.
/. Put one hand where the other can
not touch it. One can get out Of this
difficulty by putting one hand on the ell
bow Of the other arm.
8. Place o pencil ON the floor SO that
one cannot jump over it. May bc done
by putting it close to the wall Of the
room.
4 Put question that no one can an.
swe- with "no." This is not hard il
one thinks to ask, What does yes
spell?'
Z. Push chair through finger ring.
This forfeit is made by putting the ring
on the finger and pushing the chair
my other object will do Us well-witb
the tingcr.
s. Put yourself through . kcyhole.
This was great puzzle to us for while,
but when piece Of paper was taken,
with the word "yourself" written upon
it, and pushed through the bole, it was
all clear.
