which'has a name without any vOwels.
That place is the little hamlet of VS.,

this change has not been sanctioned le-

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
How to Apply Enamel.

Nearly all articles OF furniture may
be renewed and beautifed by the ap-
plication Of enamel. 1t dries quickly.
If applied in the morning the article
will be dry by night. 1t gives a fine
gloss and is sanitary and easily cleaned.
When enameling room new wood
should first be painted with inside
white or white lead reduced with tur-
pentine, which somewhat lessons the
cost. When this is hard and dry apply
one coat of enamel. A second coat ap-
piled after the first has become hard
and dry will produce fine finish.
Woodwork previously painted should
first be washed with soap and water,
using little soda, borax or ammonia
to soften the water. Then apply one or
two coats Of enamel.
A calcimined wall should be washed
or scraped off. An old wall that is SIM
ply soiled in spots should be well
cleansed and the spots washed with
soda and water to remove grease. Then
apply with thin coat Of size made by
dissolving a little good glue in boiling
water. 1t is best to apply the size while
it is warm. Do not leave spots unsized,
as if you do the paint will not dry
evenly. Then apply one or two coats OF
white inside paint. When this is dry ap-
ply the enamel. On small articles previ-
Gus painting will not be necessary.

Two Winter Games.

Have you ever played "stir the
mushT Have one chair too few. Some
one stands in the middle of the room,
holding a 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 it, 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
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 a 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.

roR the CHILDREN
A Ks.a Hearted street Boy.

A KeRd Hearted Street 80ys
Sometimes people imagine that baBb
who live all their lives on the citye
streets struggling for livelihood are
not tendeg hearted and kind.
But the -stnry of a New York news
boy 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 foundered about, pit
eously mewing, while a crowd Of chill
dren and grown folks gathered on the
wall above, gazing down at 1t, some of
them even laughing.
At this point along came Maurice, the
newsboy. One glance was enough to
show 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 he
could not get footing on the rocks.
But a workman. who was passing by,
hurried to the rescue. Hanging over
the wall, while a couple of men held
his legs, he caught the boys hand and
pulled him out Of the water.
