calm, collected and wearing beautiful
crimson blouses and boomers. Tne
boys, it must be admitted, were a
trifie nervous. To prevent the fact
from becoming apparent, they INDUCED
in some rather bold guying OF each
other.
The match opened with astonishingly
good play on the girls part. In fact,
from the onset, they played a better
and faster game than the boys, and
made continual throws for their oppo-
nents' basket. The boys, on their side,
made comparatively few tries for the
girls basket. They were graphing in
stead. with their gallantry. Murmur-
ings among them soon began to be
heard to the effect that in the scrlm-
images they were unable to use their
hands and knees with their usual
amount of freedom. Il caught one of
them" one boy said. but she felt such
a soft and mushy thing, l didn't know
what 10 do with her, and let her GO
His disgust may be imagined when he
realized that she only fed from his
grasp to negotiate goal for her side.
In the second half of the game the
boys appeared to be more at their ease;
they had pulled themselves together.
and a strong tendency was noticed to
grab the girls by the hair. No COM
plants of roughness were made, how
ever, ana the girls reclprocated Dy d
vigorous Shaping of the boys wrists.
AT the last there was a sharp and
exciting play but the game was fairly
won by the girls. Both teams retired
in good order and high spirits, and with
an assurance from the girls that their
opponents should be given an oppor-
tunity to avenge themselves.
Afterwards one of the boys was heard
to sum up the match by saying: Our
plays all right It's our nerves that
need bracing"

cHILDREN's HAPPY EVENINGS.
How Good Dolls Are Kept In Circu-
lation By an Association.

An organization with a constitution
and bylaws and a president-her royal
highness, the Duchess of York-and
many, many other officers, is the Chill
dren's Happy Evenings association
1t is English, you. know, and one of
the most popular institutions of that
happy land far, far away.
Year by year it is being more and
more recognized that healthy recrea-
ton is a necessity for both old and
young. Rich children, from all time,
have been taught to play, as we'll as to
work, but with a large mass of the
poor it has always been difficulty to
provide recreation. Want of space in
their homes, for one thing, forbids it,
and schools do not always provide suf-
ficient recreation.
The Childrens Happy Evenings as
ISOLATION provides evenings of play.
amusing over 5000 children during
seven or eight months of the year.
1t is the rule of the association that
the programme of the evenings"
should be amusement, pure and simple
always bearing in mind that the chill
dren be taught to amuse themselves
rather than to depend solely on others,
and that courtesy and consideration
for their companions should be en-
forced.
Generally speaking, the evenings
begin with march around the hall.
The meetings usually take place at the
public schools, after which those who
like to look at picture books, or to
paint, go into claSsrooms set aside for
such amusement; others may go into
another room, where they find puzzle
books and various games. Others pre-
fer to listen to fairy tales, or they join
the small army of children playing
with dolls. When dolls tea parties are
given there is no end of fun. The
younger boys often like to make toys
for dolls house, which is perhaps
made of an old packing case. That
dolls play an important part at all
happy evenings" one may judge from
the fact that it requires about 500 to
give each girls branch a dozen; this
is the Christmas allowance.
There are now about eighty branches
of the association, and last Christmas
and Easter the Duchess of York sent
toys to each one of the branches. A
charming portrait, by the way. of the
duchess hangs in every room where the
children meet to play. The children
have pretty ways of showing their
gratitude, and upon a recent occasion
the Bethnal Green branch, presided
over by the Countess of jerseys daugh-
ter, Lady Margaret Villiers, collected
all their markings and presented Lady
Margaret with a beautiful shower bou-
quet of pink roses, which she carried
the next day when attending a draw
ing-room at Buckingham palace.
Prizes are given for different things,
among the number one for clean faces
and hands. Competition runs high for
the prize to encourage washing"
Some of the cleanest of the little ones
are those who did themselves" while
their mothers were out selling flowers
or charring. The children are the very
poorest. and these happy evenings"
mean more to them than can be told.
The charity is said TO be the favorite
one of the Duchess of York

lunch. Don't forget to put in some iron
greetings for me-" said Lewis, and
then went into the barn to get his har-
ness on.
Five minutes later they started. BE
sure to keep strong and be back in
time to do the chores" said his father.
Lewis trotted off like a young gazelle,
and thanks to the five apples under his
vest he soon reached the top. although
it was twenty mile climb over
rough mountain road.
The picnickers felt well repaid for his
efforts. 1t was a clear day, and sure
enough they could see the sun as plain
ly as if it had not been 1895, $50 miles
away.
After they had looked at the sun
until their eyes ached they were ready
for lunch. The rest of the party ate
such foolish things as pies and cake
and sandwiches and milk. but Lewis
shifted at such things and ate nothing
but five greetings. He knew that they
would be sufficient to carry him home
with full strength. Poor boy. he did
not know that a mistake had been
made and that ordinary greetings had
been brought up. If you ask how there
came to be ordinary greetings on the
Fourth 1 must ask you not to interrupt
me.
Late in the afternoon they climbed
iiAlO lil6 wagon ana Lewis began Dack-
ing il down. It was easier than pulling.
for there was no danger of his being
run over. He had gone about a mile
at rafting pace when he felt hungry.
and his strength left him as quickly as
q scent piece drops through a hole
in your trousers pocket He shouted
to everybody to jump. but he didn't
speak quickly enough. and just then
the wagon came to a turn in the road
and plunged off a sheer precipice seven
miles high.
Brave little Lewis sprang upon the
dashboard and determined to go down
with his party. but he felt that they
were all in a ticklish position and he
wished he had chosen his apples him
self. He looked above him in despera-
ton and saw balloonist who had been
making a Fourth of July ascension.
He made a megaphone of his hat and
called to the aeronaut to come down
and help them. Quick as flash tbs
good natured ballOonist let out gas and
dropped alongside of the descending
picnickers who were beginning to faint
from fright. He made the wagon fast
to the basket of the balloon and then
they Went down easily enough, and in
less than ten minutes they had alighted
in a meadow about mile from the
house. Then Lewis thanked the aero
naut and ran home to get some apples
After he had eaten them he returned
and pulled the wagon load of picnick-
ers back to the farm, where he arrived
just at chore time.
But after that eventful day Lewis
always carried a supply of apples in a
bag along over his shoulders. And if
ii hadn't been for the kind balloonist
the picnickers would have had a nasty
fall. It's no joke to dep seven miles.

MARRYING A PAIR OF PIGEONS.
Curious Ceremony Arranged By the
Ruler of Banda, In Bombay.


A curious ceremony was that ar
ranged by one of the rulers or guico-
wars of Banda, in Bombay. 1t was the
marriage of two pigeons.
The guicowar's costly eccentricities
were innumerable; every novelty
struck his fancy. One day diamonds
were in request, and his agents visited
all the jewelers. shops. Another time
he had a mania for pigeons. and col
lected about $4,000 in his palace, of ell
kinds and plumage, and one day he
arranged a mock marriage and cele-
brated the event with eXtravagant lux
ury

eled collars and carried by pages. We're

decorated for the occasion.
The king and courtiers, in gala at
tire, We're ranged around the Brah
Minis, who recited a vast number of
hymns. A considerable sum was given
as a marriage portion to the two birds,
which sum was appropriated By the
priests. Dancing and grand banquet
concluded the festival. The result upon
this particular occasion, was unfore-
seen-a large cat which was an unin-
vited guest, taking advantage of the
confusion, ran off with the unhappy
bridegroom, leaving the bride dis
consulate widow.
n taste for bulbuls was another
fancy. More than 500 were brought at
one time to the palace, and their care
and education occupied the guicowar
and his courtiers for month or more.
The bulbuls are the nightingales of In
dia Their plumage is beautifully
speckled and on their heads are tufts
of waving feathers which give the birds
a coquettish and saucy air.

fluid from the roots rises it will force
the water in the lower end of the tube
upward. This will compress the air
in the middle of the tube. When suf-
ficient pressure is obtained it will be
only necessary to remove the cork cap
from the quill. when the compressed
air will force the upper water through
