one; if the other two blaze brightly to-
sether. that means certain happiness
but ais! if one chars without blazing,
there will be disappointment in love, and
perhaps widOwhood.
For the apple bobbing, a good sized
dish pan, two-thirds full of water, is
sufficient. Apples, with stems, are
marked with a knife, named, and set
afioat in the pan.
The boys-and the girls, too, who are
not afraid of spelling their crimps-try
to catch certain apples in their teeth,
with their arms folded behind them.
Fun for the onlookers.
The onlookers are sure to become
hilarious, especially when a determined
youth sets his face over particular
apple, pushes it to the bottom of the
pan, and comes up dripping but trium-
plant.
A daintier amusement for the girls is
to set tiny tapers in the pan of water
on strips of cardboard.
Two will float persistently together
or one burn longer than the other.
1t isn't fair to the game to name can
dies or apples secretly: the fun lies
largely in the endeavor of interested
parties to protect their namesakes.
While the girls are peeling apples and
throwing their long, curly peel over their
right shoulder, to see what letter it will
make when lying on the floor. the boys
can be catching apples for prize.
Suspend an apple by string from the
chandelier and let the boys try to catch
it with their teeth while it is on the
swing.
In Bobbie Burns time they hung a
stick, with an apple on one end and
lighted candle on the other and set it
tWirling, but candle grease is bad for
later day rugs.
And family come the three dishes of
fate; one empty, one with earth and one
with water.

ton of the plates deftly changed. and
the index finger compelled to describe
three circles before descending in search

The empty plate speaks for itself; the

BEFORE THE BAR OF JUSTICE.
Several Persons Appear in the Police
Court and Are Fined.

Susie HUM was sentenced to three
months in Jail by Judge Boyle yester-
day afternoon. The woman sustained
her reputation for incorrig bilty by
swearing loudly at the court and cast
ing profane defiance at the police de-
"artment.
Judge Boyle called the woman back
and added three months to the SEN
tence, making six months in ALL which
the black queen of swindlers will have
to serve.
A neighbOrhood row between Mary
Bearish and Mrs. Steve Christian took
up most of the afternoon session. Each
woman accused the other of assault.
Judge Boyle untangled the knot by
filming the Bearish woman $40. and dis
missing the case against Mrs. Chris
tian.
The cases against John Courtney and
w. Fl. I,-atthews, charged with having
adulterated milk offered for SALE were
dismissed, the expert analyst failing to
appear.
/, Jack Ayers sent word up from the
Jail that he was guilty Of vagrancy and
would not contest the charge.
Jessie Thomas and Jennie Smith were
up for sentence on the charges inciden-
tai to the robbing of one Mr. Nicks. The
court assessed fines of $50 each.

EDUCATIONAL MATTERS

THE oHiLp's PERCEPTION.

LIN y NhNlist ihOA'
Some people seem TO think that
if the County Superintendent and
District Directors fail to see the
teachers imperfections, the boys
and girls can't see them; but they
are making a mistake that may re-
suit in the total wreck ofthe child.
You can't fool a boy, although
men can be led astray. The teach
er may pretend to be what he re.
ally is not, thinking it will pass al
together unnoticed but the chill
dren with the peculiar faculty OF
discerning between sham and a
sincere motive, will know it from
the beginning and will talk it a.
mong themselves, if they think
the teacher is not near enough to
hear.
Truth they readily embrace; al
sham they dispise. Then to I'M
dertake such Is to lower yourself
in Their estimation, for those who
can, aud most children can, will
see that you are insincere and will
| tell the rest and when this is once
found out there is absolutely no
hope for you,at least in that place,
and you had better quit. OF
course you will have some friends
somewhere if you are any teacher
at all, but the great majority will
be against you. A child never
forgets. They know what you
have done and will expect the
same to continue, and will no Ion.
ger treat you as a teacher, besides
doing everything possible to cause
trouble, and when boys and girls
set themselves to cause trouble,
trouble is inevitable. You must
know before you begin that stu.
dents will do anything you allow
them to do, no matter what that
is, and if you keep them under
the proper restraint, they will
love you and truer love can new.
er be found, but if not, the inter.
est will die away and with il will

the poor teacher will ring his bell
alone.

will hold your pupils.-B. j. Dun
