The children's game of slapping
hands to the rhymes of Bean porridge
hot, bean porridge cold, as now adapt,
ed for the use of adults, has fun in it in
large solid chunks. 1t may be played
by roomful of people, who are divided
into tours In each group the couples
are SO seated that the hands of the Sec
ond couple meet across the hands of the
first couple. As everybody knows, the
first motion is TO slap the hands palm
downward upon the knees; the second
is to slap the palms of the appraised
hands together and so on. In the re-
vised and enlarged form of the game
the second couT lie makes its first mo-
ton when the first couple makes it's
second motion, and the second couple
continues thus always one motion be-
hind the first. to avoid collision. When
all the llyers are ready let somebody
sit down at the piano and begin The
High School Cadets March, or Push
Dem Clouds Away" or any other tune
of suitable measure, and with the whole
room in motion to the music Il won't
take more than n month TO discover
that there is more fun in this version
of Rem porridge hot than you car
shake q stick ai.-N. y. Sun

CLOTHES MAKE THE WOMAN
Untidiness in Attire One of the Last Things
Man VIII Forgive.

Untidiness in Attire One of the Last Things
Man VIII Forgive.
There is nothing that men of society
dislike so much or criticise so freely as
untidiness in woman. Slovenly de-
tails in the way of shoes, gloves, ties,
etc, are always noticed and commented
upon, and to say u woman is smart"
and well turned out" is to give the
highest need of praise in their vocab u.
larry. Very expensive clothes arc not
at all necessary to insure masculine
appreciation; on the contrary the sim
plest toilets are the most admired if
the fit and style are good, and if the
accessories are carefully considered
and, alovelall, if the gown is fresh and
unsoiled. There is something quite
fascinating about daintily shod foot
peeping in and ont among the 'frills
of her petticoat," and nowadays ex-
pense need be no obstacle, as the
white, and tan, and gray, are
very reasonable in price. Even a girl
who is far from wealthy can easily af-
ford several pairs to wear on especial
occasions, while her feathers, tan and
black, can so easily be kept brilliantly
clean by the right sort of polish. A
man, also, is more apt to admire style
than beauty. girl who is ''chic" and
dresses effectively is generally much
more of belle than her more beauti-
full sister, who perhaps relies too much
on her prettiness for her attractions.
After all is said and done clothes are,
and will remain. one of the chief fac
tors of our existence, the tailor making
the man, andsthe dressmaker the wom-
an, as far as eXternals go, IIumiliat-
ing as it may seem, becoming or an
unbecoming gown often influences
destiny more than women, much as
they love clothes, dream ON. Y.

The Benefcently Minded Man Who Had

Syrup

am farmer at Edom, Texas. I
have used German Syrup for six
years successfully for Sore Throat,
Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Pains in
Chest and Lungs and Spitting,up of
Blood. l have tried many kinds of
Cough Syrups in my time, but let
me say to anyone wanting such a
medicine-German Syrupis the best.
We are subject to SO many sudden
changes from cold to hot, damp
weather here, but in families where
German Syrup is used there is little
trouble from colds. John I. Jones.S
