A new form OF hide and seek
which is hidden in sight"--a very
pretty game. AL must go out Of the
room except one, who then places the
thing to be found, such as thimble
or cotton reel, SO that any one can
see it, but will not notice it without
looking rather hard. A thimble is not
easily seen on a bright iron fender,
and reel of cotton takes a good deal
of finding when properly placed on
some mantelpiece ornament, or even
on the top of picture frame.
Here is another secret; Tell the
seekers that they must find handker-
chief. Tie it round the handle OF the
door Of it is white one); show the
seekers politely in, and shut the door
after them. so that they do not touch
the handle. They will take long
time to find the handkerchief. It
is a strict rule of the game that the
first finder Of an object does not
make known his discovery. He just
sits down. One by one the seekers
sit down, until only one remains
standing, and then it is time for some
one to tell him and for the party to
get to another game

displayed in two points. Not only does
he deliberately adopt a plan to outwit

swim against the stream to reach him
and thus increasing his chance Of

Glass Blowing for Amusement.

Glass Blowing for Amusement.
Boys cannot blow glass SO as to
make bottles and goblets and other
articles of that kind, but they can
amuse themselves for hours by melt
ing bits of glass and joining them to-
gether, or by melting small glass tubes
and either drawing them out to mere
threads or blowing them into little
balloons until their surface is as thin
as a soap bubble and almost as fra
glle.
The glass tubes referred to are
smaller than the end of plpestem,
are about four inches In length, and
are made of very thin glass. A dozen
of them may be bought for few cents
at any place where chemical supplies
are sold.
For this glass blowing amusement a
homemade blow pipe will be needed,
and that any boy can make without
trouble Get two common clay pipes,
and break off the stem of one about
three inches from the little end. Then
get cork that exactly fits the bowl
of the other pipe, cut hole through
it large enough to insert the mouth
piece already broken off, and draw
this piece through the cork until the
larger end is flush with the surface of
the cork.
Now put the cork in the bowl of the
pipe, and fill the small end of the
inserted stem with clay. Make hole
through the clay with a needle, and
your blowpipe is complete.
To use 1t on glass, the flame of a
common tallow candle is all that you
need. Take piece of broken window
glass and hold it with your left hand
close to the flame then, holding the
blowpipe so INA the shorter stem

which may be worked into various
shapes with a pair of pinchers. Or
several bits Of glass of different colors
may be joined by turning the full
force of the flame on them.
But 1t is even more amusing to ex-

the flame on the end of one of them
until it becomes red-hot, and then with
the pinchers press the ends together,
thus closing 1t. To make balloon all
