Cat Shaking.

The latest social amusement in town is
what is known as the ''Cat-Shaking." The
modus operandi is as follows: All hands,
boys and girls, gather around a quilt that
has been fastened in the frames, place a cat
on it and shake vigorously. The cat, after
many ludicrous attempts, will be apt to
jump off over some ones shoulder. Should
it be young lady, she is crowned "Queen
of the Quilting Party" but should it be a
young man, piece of wax is stuck ON his
nose and he has to pass from one to the 9TH
er as they may need their thread waxe..
None of them mind this, however, as the cat
jumping over their shoulder is regarded as
an indication that they will be the first one
of the party to get married We are inform
ed that very pleasant "cat-shaking" was
had by the young folks one evening this
week at Mrs, Strickland's.
