sailboat. They enjoyed this spor
greatly, and as it was not practicable
for them to go sailing on the dangerous
waters of Lake Michigan, they resolved
to have "sailboat' that would go on
land. They procured the wheels from
disused bicycles =. using these in
preference to any other wheels because
it is necessary that the craft shall be
very light-running-and procured a
thin, strong board for deck.
AS the craft would be useless unless
it could be steered, it was necessary to
invent steering apparatus. This the
hoys succeeded in doing very cleverly.
They pierced their deck so as to put a
lever through it, and to this lever, made
of broomstick, they attached strong
pieces of light rope in such way as to
move the front wheels either way.
Then the boys inserted their mast.
which is seven feet high; they made
booms and bent on their sails, which are
neatly made of coarse sheeting. The
sails are correctly proportional to the
size and weight of the "hull," and so
to proportion them, and also to place
the mast in exactly the right spot so
that the sails should draw well, was a
task which required much ingenuity
and instructive understanding of the
principles of navigation.
II seat was placed at the rear for the
captain. The "crew"-which is one
brother or the other, as the case hap.
pens to be--must take his chances fiat
on the deck, with the boom sweeping
over him at moments convenient for it
self, but inconvenient for him. But nc
Inconvenience matters so long as the
yacht goes.
And go it does, if there is a good
smart breeze. 1t will not condescend

At a distance up the street it has exact

it for the first time.

exercise, difficult at first, soon becomes
easy by repetition.
At Fig. No. is shown an exercise
consisting of turning in the end joint of
the forefinger while holding the other
two joints unbent. 1t isn't easy, can
assure you, but it will help you make
plant your fingers for the shadow pic
lures 1 have frequently told you about.
At Fig. No. 4 the ''pinky" is turned
in toward the palm, the three other
fingers being held out straight and close
together.
At Fig. No. the first and third fin
gers are brought together at their tips.
Now try to PASS the second finger in and
out between the joined fingers without
disturbing them. tbs singular that the
fingers are rather stubborn about doing
what they are told-is it not? But
they will after several trials. Great
physical feats, either of strength or
skill, are only accomplished by prac-
tice. Do you think that the clever
tricks performed at the circus come

How Two Bright Youngsters Sail
Through Chicnpo's Streets.
On one of the wide avenues of Chicago
there has lately been seen the queer
spectacle of n cart with neat pair of
sails, mainsail and jib, spinning along
before the wind, turning around cor
nere, or taclSing to an adverse breeze.
The strange craft was not exactly O
cart, apparently, for it's hind wheels
were regular bicycle wheels, with
pneumatic tires. and the front oncs
were taken from a boys cushion-tire
bicycle, while the body is far from be-
ing common cart-body. 1t resembles
rather the deck of n boat.
This land-yacht's story is told by the
Chicago Record. The craft was invent
ed and built by two boys of that city,
Lawrence and Harold Osborne by name.
Last summer, during their vacation,
they spent good deal of time in n

FINGER EXERCISES.
They Arc Far More Difficult Than
Whey Seem to He.

they Arc thr more D1mcuIt Thnu
They Seem to He.
In these days of physical culture the
fingers come in for large share of at
tention. 1t is well to have them as fleX-
ible as possible and exercises like those
here described are calculated to give
them strength and limberness. In
childhood the fingers are plastic, and it
will not take long to make them do your
bidding.
Try the experiment pictured at Fig.
No. 1. 1t seems so very simple that
you will laugh heartily when you learn
how difficult it is. Turn in and press
together the middle joints of the second
or Saturn" finger of each hand, and
at the same time press together the
tips of the thumbs and the first or in
deX fingers, of the third or ring fingers,
and of the "pinllies" or little fingers.
Now try to separate first the thumbs,
then the first fingers and finally the
"pinkies," without taking apart the
bent joints of the second fingers. You
will find no difficulty in doing this, but
when you try to separate the tips of the
ring fingers you will find them stuck
fast together and not to be pulled apart
without first separating the joints of
the second fingers, which you must not
do. You will lind this third finger al
ways the most difficult to manage,
especially in piano playing.
At Fig. No. is shown an exercise re
quiring only one hand. The index and
second fingers are held close and the ring
finger and "pinlSy" likewise, the two
groups being separated and brought to-
gether again like the blades of pair of
shears-that is, if you can. The other
hand must not be used to help. This
