One New York man with a small city
yard and small income to match has
had some pleasure in raising wild flow
ers during the summer. He gathered
them in fields and about the edge Of
town, and tried to give soil to them
like that of their habitat. A moth
mullin was kept in bloom for six weeks
by clipping the blossoms as they faded.
A small daisy quadrupled in size and
was full of flowers. The trilium bore
a royal blossom. Several varieties of
fern dropped on transplanting, but
after week of watering braced up
and pushed out a host of fronds. White
and blue violets increased and multi
piled, and star grass, blue-eyed grass,
hawkweed, and so on, produced BIOS
SONS of marked beauty. He believes
that fine house plants could be made
from many despised weeds.-Philadel

cHlLDREN's GAMES OF ACTION.
In which Little Folks win Delight in q
VEfutop EAaann

In which Little Folks VIII Delight in The
Winter Season.
Little folks delight much in games
of action. Jack Frost understands
children pretty well, SO he gives them
plenty of lively exercise when he comes
along. The leader need not describe
the game beforehand to the players,
but all may form in a large ring, and
the children be divided into groups OF
ten. To each ten an adult should be
assigned who can assist the little peo-
pie should they need help in under
standing the game as it progresses.
Let each group face the center of the
room, where the leader stands, and
place each number one at the left end
of each section.
The leader claps her hands together
and calls out: "Where is Jack Frost?"
A lad dressed Tor mott to represent his
icy kingship, runs around the ring
and swings wand touching
number one of each section on the
right hand. Each number one turns
TO the left and says to number two,
.Jack Frost came this way" Number
two asks, "What did he do?" Number
one replies, ''He nipped my right hand,
OH" Immediately number one shakes
the right hand violently. Number two
turns to number three and says, Jack
Frost came this way" Number three
inquiries, What did he do?" Number
two replies, "He nipped my right
hand. OH" Number two begins to
shake violently it's frost-bitten hand
and number one continues the shak-
ing. This goes on in the same way
until number ten is reached. By that
time everybody in the room is shaking
frosty right hand, which must be
kept still shaking while Jack Frost
again goes flying around the room and
touches the left hand of each number
one. Then. as before, number two Is
told by number ono that Jack Frost
came this way and that he nipped his
or her left hand. Then. by the came
process, word is carried by repeated
questions and answers and hank-shak.
ing to number ten, until everybody in
the room is shaking two frost-bitteu
hands.
Jack Frost again flies around and
nips the right foot of each number one,
and right foot is added to the shaking
members. Then later a left foot; then
two feet together, and the children are
all shaking their hands and hopping
up and down upon both feet. Then the
right ear is nipped, and the hand-shak'
ing and jumping go on with the head
turned down upon the right shoulder.
The left ear falls a victim and the head
turns upon the left shoulder. The last
round inquiries: Has Jack Frost bitten
you enough?" The reply is affirmative
and the head jerks assent. 1t must be
understood that at no moment during
the entire game do the players cease
from shaking each member that has
bee., nipped with frost-Ladies' Home

Curiosity of Eyesight.

An aged sea captain, whose home is
in Philadelphia, is troubled with a pc
culiarity of vision which is common to
all shippers and ships officers of high
rank who have had long experience on
the sea- In this particular instance
the captain complains that, through
the long use of the telescope, the quad
rant, and other instruments used in
making calculations at sea, the sight
has been drawn from the left eye into
the one which peers so eagerly through
the instruments. He says he can dis
Germ objects at an enormous distance
with his right eye, but is scarcely able
to read with his left. The tendency of
nature to adjust itself to conditions is
heightened in these cases by the bright
glare from the waters, which makes
the strain on the eye especially trying.

THE HAPPY HUNTING GROUND

The Indian Believes In It Now rs Strongly
as Ever.
A belief in spirits has always been q
point Of the Indians faith. He has his
mediums just the same as the white
man, who has RENTED to Kim supposed
messages from the Happy Hunting
ground, the Indians heaven. 1t is re-
lated by one of the earliest pioneers
that he once took an ''untutored saw
age" and stood him in front of look
ing-glass, the first the Indian had ever
seen. The Indian looked for some mo-
ments intently at the glass, when he
said in slow, measured tones: 81 am
looking now into spirit land" or words
In his own language to the same effect.
There is tradition of the Columbia
river Indians which illustrates the be-
lief of the aborigines in the activity of
the spirits Of their departed friends.
The greatest demi-god of all was
Speelyai, the coyote. AT one time the
people were dying at rapid rate, aud
there was great mourning. Whai-a-
ma, the eagle, who had lost many
friends, was told by Speelyai that the
dead would not always remain in spirit
land, but, like the brown and dead
leaves of autumn. would come to earth
again with the opening buds and flow
ers of spring. Whai-a-ma was not will
ing to wait until spring, and persuaded
the coyote to go with him to spirit
land and bring them back at once.
After many days they came to great
water, on the other side of which was
a large village.
Spirits conducted them across the
water, and they catered the principal
house Of the village. which was lighted
by the moon; this luminary was guard
ed by monster frog that had jumped
to it from the earth. Speelyai killed
the frog and swallowed the moon,
leaving the house in darkness. In
the confusion that ensued, whai-a-ma
caught the spirits and confined them
in large box. Speelyai put the box
on his shoulders, and the two invaders
started back for the land of the living.
Soon the spirits in the box began to
come to life, and Speelyai's burden
grew too heavy for him to carry.
Thinking they were so far from the
spirit-land that the ghosts could not
find their way back again, Speelyai
lifted the lid and let them out. They
vanished Immediately and returned to
the land of the dead. Whai-a-ma was
much disappointed, but said when the
buds opened in the spring he would
try again; but the coyote said it was
better to let the dead remain where
they were. Had not Speelyai opened
the box, the dead would now come to
life every spring, according to the be-
lief of those who put their faith in the
legend.-N. Y. Advertiser.

The are Highly Indignant Whom Thcis
Rights are Trespassed On.
Being a passenger daily on the cars
that cross Brooklyn bridge, have come
to notice that certain men, who are
also regular passengers, have certain
seats which they apparently own, or
have engaged by the year. At all
events. they always make rush for
them, and usually come in ahead of all
competitors.
This is particularly noticeable on the
train that crosses the bridge from the
New York SIDE at forty minutes past
two o'clock in the morning
There is short, stockily-built man,
of little past middle age, whom 1 see
every morning. He comes down on the
Sixth avenve H." gets of at Park
place and makes dash for the bridge
as if he were burglar-or Lexow
witness-with the police in hot pur.
suit.
The seat he owns is the corner seat
on the left hand side of the forward
car. He knows to an inch where the
car will stop, and, having arrived at
the platform, takes his stand there
with the regularity and precision of
Roman sentinel.
Nine times out of ten he is the first
passenger aboard the car and secures
his seat. If he misses it he takes the
one opposite it. If he misses that also
he doesn't enjoy his trip across the
bridge at all; looks as though he had
been cheated out of his rights and fidp.
cts about uneasily.
If he only lives long enough he will
acquire right to the seat by prescrip-
ton, and it viii descend legitimatelv
to his posterity.
When he gets the seat he settles
back in it and looks contented and
happy.
/ 1t was some time before I noticed
that certain fat man owns the fourth
seat from the rear end of the foreward
car on the right hand side. If he hap.

Of Prof. Richarz, the smallest possible

that four hundred and thirty multiplied
