Two Winter Games.

Have you ever played "stir the
mush?' Haveone chair too few. Some
one stands in the middle Of the room,
holding q stout stick, and the others
walk around her saying, "Stir the mush,
stir the mush," and she pretends to
stir very hard with the stick, continu-
ing to do so for some time. After
awhile, when no one is expecting 1t, she
knocks three times on the floor with
the stick and then drops 1t and joins
her companions, who at this signal run
for a seat Whoever Is left without a
chair is the next to stir the mush.
"King and queen" is the name of an.
other game. Have two rows Of chairs,
the boys sitting In one row with king
at their head and the girls facing them
with queen at the end. The boys are
given even numbers and the girls odd
ones. When all are ready the king
calls number. the boy who bears that
number starts up, the queen immedi-
ately calls one of her numbers, and the
girl then chases the boy around the COM
pany. If she succeeds in catching him
before he gets to the king he pays a
forfeit; If not they take their seats and
the queen calls for number.

And kiss the smiles and dimples,

But Edith. with eyes so solemn.
Climbs up on my knees to say.
'May I hold DOR fwotch?" and listens
AS 1t measures our lives away.
I stroke the brown locks sunny,
The sweet young brow caressed,
And think, "Your auntie loves You
Dear little niece-the best"
But little arms clasp softly
My neck in a close embrace,
And a boyish cheek, all rosy.
Is pressed against my face.
"Is auntie's little sweetheart,
An love 90 lots do;
Whole hun'erd bushels, auntie;
Is at enough for oo?"
Then kiss my ardent lover
And fold him to my breast,
And think, "Of all the babies
surely love you-best."
But at night, as the tiny toddlers,
Reluctant, go to rest,
know, as tuck them under,
That I love them all-the best

How Wells Clock Strikes.


The great clock of Wells cathedral In
England was built in 1922 for Glaston-
bury abbey and ran $50 years before
1t was removed to Wells.
The striking mechanism Of the clock
is very curious and elaborate. Above
the dial is little battlemented turret,
with four knights on horseback, armed
with lances. standing guard round it.
AT some distance from the clock itself,
near the end Of the transept, is life
size painted figure, quantity ugly, with
q battleaX in it's hand. while outside
the cathedral is second large dial,
guarded by two tall figures Of knights
in armor.
When the gilt stars point to the hour,
the painted figure Jack Blandivir, as
he is called by the country people about
Wells, no one knows Why strikes the
quarters by striking his heels against
two bells behind him and then tolls the
great bell Of the clock by striking 1t
with his battleaX. The two standing
knights in armor strike the outside bell
with their halberds, and at the first
stroke Of the great bell the four knights
on horseback over the inside dial start
at a gallop and rush round and round
the turret in a mimic tournament, in
which one knight is thrown from his
horse and regains his seat In every
revolution.

An Early Riser

A strong, healthy, active constl-
tuition depends largely on the con-
dition of the liver. The famous
little pills known as DeWitt's Little
Early Risers not only cleanse the
system but they strengthen the
action of the liver and rebuild the
tissues supporting that organ.
Little Early Risers are easy to act,
they never grippe and yet they are
absolutely certain to produce re-
suits that are satisfactory In all
cases. Sold by

Kind Hearted Street Boy.


Sometimes people imagine that Dogs
who live all their lives on the city's
streets struggling for livelihood are
not tender hearted and kind.
But the story Of New York news.
bow shows that this Is not always 80.
A little girl about six years old was
playing with some children dangerous
" near the edge of the sea wall down
at the Battery. Every once in awhile
she would stop playing to cuddle lit
tie kitten that was with her.
While she was holding the kitten In
her arms somebody proposed game OF
tag and chased the little girl. She ran
straight toward the sea wall, where
she suddenly slipped and would have
fallen into the water If she had not
thrown her hands out and thus saved
herself.
But the poor kitten fell into the wa
ter, and there it floundered about, pit
eously mewing, while crowd Of chill
dren and grown folks gathered on the
wall above, gazing down at it, some OF
them even laughing.
At this point along came Maurice, the
newsboy. One glance was enough to
snow him what was doing. Jaw!
exclaimed he. What are you'se guys
rubbernecking at de kids pet fur? Why
don't you'se do sumthin'? Don't you'se
see the little kids a-cryin'?
The next minute, Selling the chain
, that guards the edge Of the Battery
walk, Maurice swung himself down
and reached out as far as he could In
the effort to reach the kitten.
Then, to the dismay Of the onlookers,
Just as he caught the kitten he some
how lost his grip on the chain, and
down he fell into the water. The tide
was going out, and try as he could ne
could not get a footing on the rocks.
But q workman, who was passing by,
hurried to the rescue. Hanging over
the wall, while couple Of men held
his legs. he caught the boys hand and
pulled him out of the water.

. Ponular Airs hx Birds.

Teaching birds to sing, the new
wrinkle adopted by the London fan
'ciers, is soon to be tried in this city.
They find they can demand larger
price for members of the feathery
tribe. which can MARBLE tunes that
sound like "Bedelia," Hiawatha," or
the other popular airs. A young girl
is placed near the cage ard plays the
flute by the hour. A bird at first takes
no notice Of the strange, tremulous
whistling notes, and it requires much
patience on the part of the teacher.
After some time the bird begins to
repeat the first bar That is the cue
for the teacher, and the air is taken
up on the flute where the bird
stops, and gradually, bar by bar, the
bird is taught the full tune. A bull
finch is said to be the easiest to teach
to sing, and when they are declared
proficient they have market value
