A Pretty Party Trick.

The old fashioned clay pipe has n
little knob on the underside of the
stem. near the bowl. What this is for
no one seems to know, and perhaps
if you have such pipe to blow
bubbles with you will want to get rid
of the useless knob as soon as pos
sible.
Now, if you try to knock 1t off with
a hammer you will probably smash the
pipe and leave the knob fast to the
biggest fragment The proper way is
to ask a friend to insert his finger into
the bowl and to hold the pipe with the
stem slightly inclined and the mouth
end resting on a smooth table. Then
lay an iron rod or piece of pipe stem
two or three inches long on the table
so that it points to and along the stem
of the pipe and projects little be-
yond the edge of the table. Then
strike the short rod or pipe stem
smartly with your hand and send it
over the table and up the stem of the
pipe until it strikes the knob and
knocks it off. You may not succeed
the first time. but keep on until you
do. 1t is easier than it looks. and
makes very pretty parlor trick.

empty wine bottles and two old
broomsticks.. Lay one stick on the
backs OF two chairs and the other on
the seats, which will leave is or 20
inches space between them. The
chairs must be placed with their backs
toward each other. and nearly as far
apart as the broomsticks are long.
Now suspend the bottles from the
sticks, nine bottles from each. by
means Of strings tied to the neck.
More or less water is then poured into
the bottles to make each give note in
the music scale, and that is where
the good ear for music comes in.
When the bottles have been tuned
properly, the instrument will be ready
to be played on. and this is done by
means of drumsticks.
Glass tlmblers are sometimes used
in similar way, but the bottle device
is decidedly more novel and striking.
The notes are eXquisitely soft and
melodious. and the music they make
is delightful. OF course the ''instru-
ment" must be made and played by
some one who has a knowledge of
music.

WISDOM'S WHISPERS.

Marriage is the crowning glory of
the average woman.
To think you are right does not al
ways make it a fact.
The codicil to a will sometimes is
its strongest feature.
Honors have been known to bring
disastrous consequences.
There are times when four aces
constitute a helping hand.
How much is ever accomplished by
an argument with a woman?
The intellect of youth often is
blurred by the glitter of gold.
The photograph which is the most
truthful often is the most despised.
The woman with an active past may
have a passive present and futile
future.

Disc Puzzle.
A Little Jan in School.

Do you know how many letters the
Japanese alphabet contains? Forty
seven. Think of it! And, besides,
there are ever SO many word signs,
some standing for word and others
for a whole sentence, which the little
Japanese boy or girl must learn to
know perfectly. When the young Jap"
goes to school in the morning he
leaves his sandals outside the door.
Then he goes in, bows very low to the
teacher and takes his place beside the
other children.
That is, he squats down upon a
floor mat and begins to study with a
book on his knee.
A very queer book you would think
1t if you could see it. for it begins at
the back, instead of the front, and
the lines run up and down the page,
instead of across, as yours do.
The letters are curious too. Very
much like the Chinese characters we
see on packages of tea. When he
learns to write he does not use a pen,
but a small brush with fine point.
Neither is his ink like ours. Rath-
er it is wnat we call India ink. 1t is
quite hard and comes in a long stick.
To use it he first pours water upon
a fiat stone and rubs his ink in it.
Then he dips in his brush and copies
the letters which the teacher has made
upon the blackboard. His paper is not
smooth. but quite rough and porous.
He has very easy time when he
comes to arithmetic. He does not have
long tables of pounds, shillings and
pence, and he knows nothing about
avoirdupois and Troy weight. He does
everything by tens and he counts upon
his fingers.
Then, too, he has the soroban, and
he does all his sums on it. 1t is a
great frame, with wires running from
top to bottom. On the wires are large
wooden buttons. and it is only neces-
sary to move these about to do any
sum he wishes.-Chicago Chronicle.

The Letter,

.'hey lit the fire and fairies came
To dance in flying cloaks of flame.
They drew the curtains and the day
Entered the room divine and gay.
Still in her rainbow dawn disguise:
With robe of rose and amethyst.
And silver hood OF morning mist
Drawn down to hide her golden eyes.
And there was one came in with her.
White winged. n dainty messenger.

And lovely news of you he brought.
My fairy Prince so far away,
So far away from fairyland.
] find 1t hard TO understand
That l shall see your face to-day.
The morning only waits for you
To make 1t perfect how that blue
Unclouded color of the skies
Reminds me of your great, blue eyes,
And that red rose-cup full of rain
Wakes dreams of your dear mouth. and
there
The light is golden like your hair.

Shadow Buff.

This game, If well played. is great
fun. large white sheet is first
hung securely on one sloe of the room
and on table, some distance behind.
a very bright lamp must be placed.
Then the players take 1t in turn to
sit on stool facing the sheet. while
the rest pass behind. between him
and the lamp. AS the shadows are
thrown on the sheet the sitter has to
guess who the shadow represents.
This is more difficult than many
people imagine. because you may dis
guise yourself in any way, or make
absurd grimaces or gestures, which
makes the guessing far harder.
