Shadow Faces,

If you take Il piece of paper and roll it
into II ball, it will cast n shadow precisely
like IL human face. Try this il you have
any doubt Of 1t.
TIL paper should be rolled as hard as
you can easily roll it between the palms
Of the hands and must BIO Of soft paper,
as soft, say, as newspaper, or it will not
form II ball. Throw it carelessly on a piece
of plain white paper, and then lay it un-
der the gaslight, where a strong light will
fall on it. The shadow cast by the paper
will now, If carefully outlined, be II hui
mar face. Mr.. Edison, the great ~electri-
clan, made this discovery and has tried
it many times and always with success.
When your shadow face has been drawn,
you can make a body for il by putting on
the neck. legs aud arms as II 1t were a pa
per doll. The skillful part comes when
you make the figure correspond with the
face. If you have a baby face cast for
you, it is cunning to draw u baby dress
and a bib. II the face Is that of IN old
man, all grizzled and bearded, you must
make his shoulders STOPPING nnd his
clothes big and comfortable. But X you
find you have drawn II "dude" you must
study the fashion plates and make him Us
exquisite as possible.
Shadow faces arc great fun for u rainy
Saturday when the gas can be lighted.

for 'lie." AS some one neatly puts it, you
can ''lie' down. but you must 'lay" your
coat down. You can ''sit" down. but you
must ''set" your hat down. you can
"set'' a hen, but the hen must ''sit'' on the

Did you ever know that some trout are

to find them where trout are raised. But
they seldom grow up, and you would new

arc both SO greedy and 80 selfish that one
bend fights the other head for all the food

slips away, and no head gets it, and 40
