The Small Boys Latest Game.

Who has noticed a curious scroll
drawn in chalk upon the sidewalk
lotted with apparently hieroglpyhs, and
serving to interest and amuse youthful
New Workers? This is a new game,
an echo of the great fair, and it rejoces
in the name of "the Ferris wheel"
1t is kind of "hopscotch," but much
more complex and ingenious, and rose
in the armament of youthful sports a
star of the first magnitude, during the
Columbian Exposition. When 1t will
set no astronomer can predict. Its dis
coverer was Chicago lad.
A great, double spiral is drawn, lots
are cast to decide who is to lead off,
and then Master A. b., who has won
the cast, hops into the diagram, as far
as the center, and then retraces his
lops-steps would be inaccurate. After
this he places his initials in any part of
the spiral which appeals to his taste
The others fellow in order. No one
must touch the lines of the spiral, fail
to keep one foot clear of the ground, or

of Miss Willet Robinson. Miss Robin
son caught Griffin coming out of her
mothers room in the Avery Hotel.
She seized the man and locked him in
the elevator. Then she summoned as

over the prisoner until the policeman
came. The thief looks we'll and talks
well, and when he left Miss Robinson
he lifted his silk hat and bowed. =

Professor John W. Langley says in
the Popular Science Monthly: "'The
warliko temperament of man has been
one of his most prominent characteris-
tics from the earliest times. To live
to fight has been the chief aim of most
primitive peoples, and has been n
leading occupation of all civilized
ones. Armies have grown in size.
weapons have multiplied in number
and destructiveness, battles have
grown more and moro deadly in ac-
ton, while also becoming more mer-
ciful in their accomplishments; but
still it is everywhere apparent that, in
spite Of these aids to carnage. the mil
itary spirit is on the decline. May
we not look for the cause of this in
the enormously increased cost of war
fare and its interference with the pur-
suit of prosperity and wealth? When
the internal losses to people become
greater than those they can gain
through conquest and annexation,
they will be very loath to enter into
great conflict. / am very far from
saying that many other causes, such
as ethics and growing spirit OF
mercy, may not have contributed to
this pacifcation of the Nations, but is
it not true that the cost of war is tho
chief preventive of war? If SO, does
it not illustrate the rule that the re-
actions set up by the vast technical
improvement of methods of destruc.
tion have reacted on the primitive
cause of the destruction-viz., the
human willard have lessened the
cause by modifying the heart and
brain of man?

Keep your harness soft and clean,
particularly the inside of the collar
and saddle, as the perspiration, if al
lowed to dry in, will cause irritation
and produce gals.
The collar should fit closely, with
sufficient space at the bottom to admit
your hand collar too small obstructs
the breathing, while one too large
will cramp and draw the shoulders into
an unnatural position, thus obstruct-
ing the circulation.
Never allow your horse to stand on
hot, fermenting manure, as this will
soften the hoofs and bring ON diseases
of the feet, nor permit the old litter
to lie under the mnnger, as the gases
will taint his food and irritate his
lungs as well as his eyes.
Do not keep the hay over the stable,
as the gases from the manure aud the
breath of the animal will make it un-
wholesome.
Kindness will do more than bru-
tality; therefore do not use harsh
language to your horse, or lash or kick
him. Bear in mind that he is very
intelligent and sensitive, willing SER
want, and deserving of your kindest
treatment and thought.
Remember that horses are made
vicious by cruel treatment; that it is
speed which kills; that more horses
are lame from bad shoeing than from
all other causes; that careless appli-
cation of the whip has blinded many
horses; that more fall from weariness
than from any other cause and that no
animal should ever be struck upon
the head. --New York World.

One of the striking tendencies of
New York life at present is the elimin-
alton of the home as it is to be found
in other cities. Apartment houses
and hotels, explains the New York
World, are increasing in number, but
only people of large means can afford
to occupy dwelling houses in the CEN
tral portions of the city. Said a
dweller in fiat recently: 81 have a
very attractive apartment, but l am
too old. fashioned to feel at homo in a
place where I cannot walk upstairs or

This is no easy matter, particularly
after the diagram has become an In

The player scores one for each sue
cessful effort, the highest score natur-
ally winning.
The rapid spread of the game, its
naming in honor of the exhibit which
probably impressed youthful visitors
most deeply, and to which they could
trace an intended resemblance in the
curved lines of the diagram, its curl
Gus complexity, all make the new sport
extremely interesting.
