Hay flowers consist of the remains Of
stalks. leaves, blossoms and seeds, even
the hay itself. An oat-straw bath is
made by boiling the stalks and heads
of oats for one-half hour in a kettle and
then pouring the decoction into the
tub. Shave grass is prepared in the

botanical name of shave grass, which
is a medicinal herb of great value.

NEW GAME OF WITS.
1t Is Called Character Quotations and

The game of character quotations
IS a new-faShioned way of holding the
mirror up to nature and of seeing our
selves as others see us. 1t also fur
nishes an excellent method of passing
. pleasant evening, for when are peo-
pie so interested as in talking about
themselves?
Long slips of paper are handed to
rach participant in the game, who
obligingly atfiXes his signature to the
notion and passes it ON to his neighbor

preston of the character and personal

Of poetry selected at random from some
remembered author. If the stanza is
comic, so much the more fun; if it is full
some or sentimental, so much the more
ponfusion for the recipient when it is
read to the jeering assembly.
When the first neighbor has written
his impression he in turn sends it
around the circle, after having folded
down his own poetical estimate. If his

suitable rhyme comes to mind apph-
cable to special individual, he is

the conclusion of the game, when the

The Art of Mendiuu

The complaint is made that the art

THAI there should be instilled in
her a sense of the disgrace of wear
