NEW DANCE AND GAME.

Smart society on the Continent has
started a new dance, which is sure to
become popular everywhere, for it
combines the ever-favorite waltz with
game. It is called the Boston Ball.
and is very much danced in Paris just
now. The floor is marked out in rect
angular form as for a game of tennis.
Inside this, six half circles are mark
ed, two at each end cornerwise, and
one at each side. This leaves long
space in the middle. At the junction
of each side semi-circle with the mid
die space a croQuet hoop is placed,
tied with a color. Six couples take part
in the Boston Ball dance at a time,
one pair being in each of the four
semi-circles, and two in the centre
space. These have a ball given them
leach pair wearing a hoop COLOR. and
it is their object to drive the ball
through the croquet hoop into the diff
ferent side semi circles which may be
considered the home territories as in

polo. The ball is only driven by the
feet while Waiting. and whenever the
ball in it's rushes from one direction
to the other enters the semi-circles be-
longing to one of the corner pair, those
dancers become principal players ana
take the middle floor, exchanging with
the pair whose bad play allowed them
to do so. 1t must be remembered that
Waiting is going on without cessation
the whole time, each pair being confin-
ed to its own domains until a chance
offers to gain the center. The number
of goals are duly reckoned for each
side and prizes are given. At any
moment a weary couple in the outer
spaces can be recruited from fresh
dancers without stopping the game. 1t
is a. delightful idea to adopt the waltz
in this way, as it gives fresh interest
to those dancing, allows of graceful
movement on the part Of the perform
ers, and amuses chaperons who are
keen in keeping the score.

Under the nom de plume Philip
Sauerampfer,' a humorous writer has
for a number of years been contribut-
ing articles to German papers of Amer
lea. His letters are a comical mixture
of American slang and bad German,
and a recent one is dated Honolulu. -
In a previous one he says that he
offered to go to the Far East as a
war correspondent, providing the pa
per which he wished to represent would
pay part of the expenses, and the fol-
lowing is a translation of the reply
which he claims to have received:
t'Honored Mr.. Sauerampferi" Your Of
fer to go to Japan as our war CORE
spondent pIeases us the more that we
know that in your case we take no risk
regarding your safety, for the past has
shown that you keep out of the way
of every danger with praiseworthy fear
leSsnesS. AS regards the bill of ex-
penses, we will here also give to you
proof of our recognition, in that we
leave it entirely to you to make the cost
as high or low as you wish, for we
never trouble ourselves about other peo-
pies finances. OF course we will bear
the cost of postage stamps, for in such
things we are always liberal. Start as
quickly as possible.
Respectfully, The Editors"
In reply to this Sauerampfer says:
well, Mr.. Editor, when I also not ev-
erything like that In your letter stands,
so am 1 yet glad that you me the job
give, and you bet your life it will me
not long take, then am l away"
The following is almost a literal
translation of the greater part of the
Honolulu letter:
my Dear Mr.. Editor:
Il bet you, you are surprised, when
you by the postage stamp notice where
I now am. I have a trip had that has
everything beaten, and another time I
will to you a description of it give; to-
day I have not the time, and in fact
have I also to you things to report
which darn sight more important are.
Here am 1 in a country where I in my
whole life not yet been have, and there
by can we well see that the world a
considerable size has. This here coun-
try is the country from which the sand
witches come, and for that reason call
we it also up to the present time Sand
witch Island. An old man whom l ask
ed about it, said yes, that was so.

trees here, as now the oranges and
apples. Every tree bore different kind

BY THE GRAVES OF THE SLEEPING DEAD
DECORATION DAY.)

l gazed on the graves of men,
Where many wreath was spread,
On this balnly, tropic day,
To honor the sleeping dead
And among the myriad flowers,
That like stars in the heavens shone
My broodlng, earnest gaze,
Was centered upon one
One that more than sweet
Beautiful and complete
1 came to the fower-strewn graves
Full of sombre thoughts of DEATH
But the blossom / there beheld
Brought quickening of my breath;
In a moment the gloom had fed
My heart with JOY was rife,
A spirit seemed to sing
To my soul of a grander life:
Oh sweet was that happy hour
When | gazed on that beauteous flower!
And sweet were the pensive graves
For angel by them stood.
a blossom, from some bright star,
OF gracious maidenhood;
Delicate, pure and bright,
Her soul like jewel shone,
In the depths of her soft blue eyes,
A moment, and then was gonel
But still in my life will be,
Though million years had sped,
The vision that came to me

New Years SuperstitiOns.

The following superstitions in con-
nection with New Years are still be-
lieved in various parts Of England,
Ireland, Scotland and Wales: On New
Years morning go to a we'll or foun-
tain and leave an apple and nosegay,
and the water will keep fresh and be
more wholesome all the year. If dark
complexioned man crosses your thresh-
old first on New Years day you will be
prosperous; if blond, unlpcky, and If
redheaded man dire disaster will sure
ly follow. Before locking the door for
the night on. New Years eve place a
gold coin near it and let it remain
there until the church bells ring the
next morning, and you will have plen-
ty Of money all that year. So strong is
the belief in this last adage in some
places that dark complexioned men are
paid a small gratuity to call early and
walk through the first floor of the
house, entering by the back door and
leaving by the front

SOme Odd Plants.

There are few plants that have not
been utilized in one way or another by
mankind for food, paper, drugs, or in
other ways. Among many not SO we'll
known may be mentioned the japanese
wax tree, bearing punches of fruit
growing like grapes which contain a
species Of wax used in making candles.
Another tree, found in the Pacific is
lands and known as the candle nut,
yields large quantity of oil, while the
kernels are strung together on a stick
and lighted as a candle. The fruit of
the candle tree is between three and
four feet in length and about an inch
in diameter, and of a yellowish color.
AS they are seen hanging from the
tree they present the appearance Of a
number of wax candles. The telegraph
plant, which grows in India, is a slen-
der, erect shrub, SO called because of
some resemblance to signals in the mo-
ton of it's trifoliate leaves-the two
side ones rising and falling alternately
for time. and then resting. Some
: times many Of the leaves are in motion,
aud sometimes only a few, the greatest
activity being in the early morning,

Among the people of the. world the
Swiss are alone in having no language
they can call their own. According to
q recent visitor to the little country
about three-fourths Of the people Of
Switzerland speak German, while the
remainder divide four other languages
among them-Eainly French and 1tal-
ian-thc languages varying, as rule,
according to the proximity of the peo-
pie to each country whose tongue
they speak. Public documents and
notices are. printed in both French and
German. In the Swiss national parlia-
ment the members make their speeches
either in French or German, for nearly
all the members understand both Ian
guages. The orders of the president
are translated by an official Interpreter
and furnished to the newspapers in
both languages.

SAMUEL A. Cook is all right upon his
merits. He was good enough eight , ears
ago for a united party to elect to con-
gress. He was good enough four years
ago for the Half Breeds to favor for
United States senator. He was good
enough for a large element of "peace-
lovers" in Wisconsin for the gubernator-
ial nomination and available enough for
all the conservative republicans of the
state to give their unanimous support.
He is therefor amply good enoug b to
elect next November. He never did a
mean act He has done thousands OF
most worthy ones, both public and pri-
yate.-Hudson Star-Times.

Oshkosh Northwestern, Stalwart Rep:
The final expiring struggle of Governor
La Toilette to wreak blind vengeance on
those whom he regards as responsible for
his own undoing may create little fur
ry in the present campaign, but it will
have little effect on the final results.
The antics of disgruntled and repudi-
ated politician may afford amusement
and entertainment for those who do not
stop to consider the more serious side of
the question, but for the majority of the
people course of this kind will create
simply disgust and scorn. And after the
verdict has been rendered next Novem
bet there will be no more of so called
Stalwartism or Half Breedism, for the
minority faction, which has been misled
by the false leadership of selfish and
greedy schemer will see the error of it's
course and reunited party will be the
result. 1t is time for genuine rejoicing

IT is a noted fact that almost every
land, the world over, has one or more
famous dishes which have been perfect
ed through long centuries of culinary
practice. Virginia, for instance, has more
than fifty ways of cooking corn. Some
of these, like the soft cornbread, are not
known outside Of a small radius, yet
they are among the most delicious of the
worlds dishes. No attempt has ever
been made to get together the BEST
dishes of all lands. "The Twentieth
Century Home" is proceeding to accom-
plish this most desirable result, by Sc
lecting some one in each country who
has good knowledge of the best dishes
of the land to prepare papers for the
pages of that magazine.

The Republican National committee
is republican from top to bottom. 1t is
the fairest tribunal in the land to deal
with party questions. 1t knows moth
ing about "Stalwarts or half breeds"
and whatever may be its decision in the
Wisconsin case, good Judgment founded
on justice, and not influenced oy preiu-
dice, will govern. If the LaFollette men
are defeated, and then in a spirit of re-
eenge organize to defeat the party in the
state, there Will be no longer any ques
tionwho the boilers are. Open rebellion
against the decision of the National COM
mittee has no state boundary limits. 1t
affects the national organization and will
be dealt with accordingly. There is no
occasion for threats or insinuations at
this stage of the game, but there will be
plenty of time to exercise calm judgment
and deliberate action when the campaign
is launched.-Lancaster Herald.

IT SHOULD not be forgotten that a
large part OF the half breed faction con-
sists of genuine republicans, men who
believe in the party's principles, who
have helped make it's grand history and
who intend to carry its flag in the future
as in the past. These men have been
loyal to Governor LaFollette because he
was the party's chosen standard bc arer;
they have stayed with him throug two
campaigns, have helped him to the usu-
al endorsement of second term, and
would now support him again were he
the nominee of the party. But when the
recognized authorities declare that an
other man is the rightful standard bear
er of the party, these men will acqulesce
in the decision and give their allegiance
accordingly. Their love goes to the par
ty not to any man or candidate. White
