For Winter Evenings.


ar Entertainment or Two for the Cheerful Firosid
The games that follow are not all Of
,hom particularly new; but they are very
pleasant, and are quite worth trying;
TIE CAT
One player says: "Have you seen my
catPn The next replies; Eyes, rvo
seen your catn "Do you know what
my cat is doing?' YES, I know what
your cat is doing" "Do it" And if
the player ncglects to purr or scratch
she pays forfeit OF course, this game
may be varied considerably by choosing
any other animal
THE INTERRUPTED REPLY.
The company are seated in a circle,
when one whispers TO her right-hand
neighbour. Say that she asks: ''Of what
use is u booker The answer would
naturally be: 40 read" But instead
she asks another question of her right
hand friend and when the questions
have gone around the circle, the original
question and the last answer are given
aloud-of course producing much laugh
ter among the party.
PUZZLE MUSIC.
One player leaves the room, and the
rest determine on something he must do
on his return. Say he has to dance
around the room TO discover a hidden
person or to touch n particular object.
When he enters he is informed by song
or piano when he is near or far from his
object, the singing or playing becoming
louder or softer as he approaches or
reccdes from the solution. With little
trouble this may be made q most anus
ing game. 1t is, in fact, but modera-
ton of the old nursery frolic, "Hot
Boiled Beans and Bacon"
TIE KEY TO TIE KINGS GARDEN.
The plan is for one to give sentence:
81 give you the key Of the Kings gar
den" The next person repeats the
words with an additions II give You the
string that holds the key of the Kings
garden A fourth: II give you
patent file to sharpen the scissors to cut
the string that holds the key of the
Kings garden" "a fifth: 81 give youa
box TO hold the patent file to sharpen the
HNl'''lS w WV tllc nllllIS llldb Hol'lS INV
key of the Kings garden" and so on till
one player fails and pays forfeit,
THE SECRET THAT TRAVELS.
A game of the simplest character, but
which among young people will often be
found to afford genuine amusement. 1t
has its adyantage-that any child can
join in it without having previously
possessed a knowledge of the pastime.
The players sit around a table, or at
least dispose themselves in a circle. One
player starts the game by whispering a
sentence in the ear of the player on the
right hand. This sentence is the secret.
The player TO whom the secret has been
coniided tells it to his right-hand neigh
Dor, and so on all around the table circle.
The last player repeats aloud the SEN
tonce as he under stood it, and then the
first player gives out the sentence in its
original form. AS a general rule, it
will be found that in passing from one
to another the words have been so alter
ed as to be almost unrecognizable.

Growing interest in the movement
against the church establishments of
Great Britain appears in various parts
of the empire. and it is expected that
the subject will come up in parliament
during the present session. Note has al
ready been made of the agitation in
Scotland, which of late has increased
rather than diminished, and it is expect
ed now that an attack will be made on
the small state church in India, with
probably disastrous results to the church.

Sam Patch's Fatal Lean,

A lengthy review in the Detroit Free
Press of the career of Ellison e. Dun
can, contains the following concerning
the fatal performance of Sam Patch:
1t was Mr.. Duncan's fortune to witness
the first and last leap of the famous diver
Sam Patch, at Genesee Falls, Roches-
ter, N. Y, in the autumn of 1929. He
had previously made successful leaps
into the seething waters of Passaic and
Niagara. An immense concourse had
assembled on the first Jump at Roches-
ter in October, estimated at $4,000. 1t
was from an island overlooking the up
per cataract. He was denuded of his
outer garments and had red bandana
handkerchief around his waist. Smil-
ingly he waved a parting salute to the
immense multitude and took the awful
plunge of 100 feet, striking the water
perpendicularly, with head erect and
arms at his side. He came up in a
few moments and with a few vigorous
strokes reached the shore. On the 18th
of November following at 3 P. NJ, he es-
sayed his last and fatal leap at the same
spot, but from a scaffolding % feet high
er, making the descent 125 feet. It was
old spectator found on wading in it to shake
hands with him, the last of all that crowd.
Attired as before, he partook of brandy
and spliced the main brace once too Of
ten, as was then thought. Turning to the
vast assembly, it seemed as if Monroe
and all the adjacent counties had sent
their native population there, Patch
made short address, the last words of
which as he leaped were. Ladies and
gentlemen, bid you all kind adieu.
The excitement was tremendous and for
many minutes one could have heard a
pin drop in the fearful, painful hush.
He struck the rapids almost horizontally
and never reappeared alive. His body
was found at the mouth of the Genesee
the spring following, easily identified, if
in no other way, by the bandana around
it. On his first jump he threw in pet
bear called Cuff, saying as he do SO,
"Cuf, you must go where l CO."
Bruin, none the worse for his bath, in
defatigably swan ashore. Sam was
buried where found. When it became
evident to all that he was drowned a col
lection was taken up. Three old-fash-
Toned beaver hats were filed with coin
trimming over, which was sent to his
mother at Pawtucket, r. [. Sam Patch
was about 80 years of age, of medium
hight, sharp features, blue eyes, light
hair and fair complexion, of prodigious
physical agility. His first salutatory ex-
periments in the Passaic were only for
amusement, but they gave him conf
dence in his prowess and excited in him
an "ambition which o'erleaped itself"
He had been a silk weaver at Paterson,
N. j., was good speaker, indeed, much
of an orator, and became conspicuous as
an agitator during the silk strike there.

Mn. Howarth's Brilliant Bird.

"Two months ago 1 bought remark
ably large white pigeon, said Mr.. How
arth, of Newark, N. J., "and [ dyed it so
nicely in the brightest color that the
bird fanciers we're deceived. dyed the
head bright purple, the neck an orange
yellow, and variegated the wings with
brilliant green, red, purple and black,
and with sprinkling of silver steel on
the natural white of the feathers. I
then dotted the white under part of the
body with silver steel and crimson, and
the base of the tail cream yellow, the
middle a vivid purple, and the extreme
end glowing scarlet, spotted with sill
yer. The effect was so beautiful, and
my wife and children were so delighted,
that dyed the pigeons legs sky blue,
put blue and silver on the white breast,
and dyed the inner part of the wings
vermilion. A more brilliantly colored
pigeon was never before seen, and when
| hung it out of doors in cage it at
tracted crowds of people every day.
The pigeon was so large, and the colors
so bright and so natural in appearance,
that people were completely puzzled.
Most folks said that it was some kind of
parrot, and then, for sport, said it was
a 'parretta, cross between a parrot
and a pigeon, bird found only in
Egypt, and even there very rarely seen.
A lady offered me SIS, and another $40,
but / said I would not part with the
bird. did not like to deceive the peo-
pie, except for innocent sport. The
police had to clear the spectators from
the sidewalk. It caused so much talk
that / decided to let it loose before some
shrewd fancier exposed the deception.
And SO let it free on the day it perched
on the First Presbyterian Church."

After the circus had opened to the

brother, who held the hand of boy Of
fourteen as both stood gazing at the tent
shook his head in solemn manner and
observed:
''It's no use to cry bout it sonny,

In course you does. All chiIen OF

The boy still continued to cry, and the
old man pulled him behind a wagon and
continued:
"Henry Clay Scott, which had you

Where the valley sink into the night,
Like q soul-guiding star

IT'S not the mere house-hght 1t seems,
IT'S the light of her passion that CLEANS;

Like hame-feathered dart,
Leaps forth and unites with its beams.
The gloomy pine forest is past,
The sea-meadows open at last.
Now away to her door
By the billowy shore,
Like home-winging bird on the blast!
Olisten, love; listen and hear
The hurrying hoofs coming near.
Let the eloquent air,
As it losses your hair,
Sing the sounds of approach to your ear.
At last draw the remit is DER!
Yes, good Yorick, one mighty leap more

The Turin Twins.
lFrom the Presse Medicale Beige. ]

From the Presse Medicale Belge.1
The brothers Tocci, born in Turin In
1877, are considered to be even more Gu
rious than the famous Siamese twins.
They have two wel-formed heads, two
pairs of arms and two thoraces, with all
internal organs; but at the level of the
sixth rib they coalesce into one body.
They have one right and one left leg.
1t is a curious fact that the right leg
moves only under the control of the
right twin (named Baptiste), while the
other is movable only by the left twin
(named jacob. AS result they are
unable to walk. This left foot Is de-
formed and is an example of toiipes
eqmi9us. Each infant has distinct
moral personality; one cries while the
other is laughing; one is awake while the
other sleeps. When one is sitting up,
the other is in position almost hori-
