A good turn out at the school
meeting Monday. Twenty votes
were cast for director, of which
number E. M. Whitaker received
eighteen. A two mill levy was
voted for the special fund, which
is thought will raise about $50.
The district is in good financial
condition, having S275 on hand
in it's several funds after all obi
tions are met. During the past
year $2S3 was apportioned the
district for the general fund
and the receipts this year will
about equal that amount. So
chat the directors will have about
$500 on which to conduct the
school next year. For the seven
months term last winter SIS was
expended for coal and freight on
same and $3.50 for teachers
wages. There were other Incl
dental expenses.

Tho Bells of Japan.

One of the sweetest of them rings
out many times every day into the
waiting air, in a far-away little city.
Its tone is intensely thrilling and
pathetic. The bells are not sounded
by clapper, but are struck from the
outside by sort of wooden arm. Be-
ing withdrawn to the proper distance
and released, it strikes the bell once;
the strokes are allowed to succeed one
another on,y with dignified and stately
regularity. Tradition says that the
finest bells have much silver in their
composition. which may account for
their deep and wonderful sweetness.
Whether this be so or not, the bells
make a profound impression upon all
sensitive and musical persons, here
tofcre accustomed to the more discord-
ant bells of our western civilization

Up-Heiiy-A.

Up-Helly-A! one of the few ancient
British customs which survives, is
still kept as carnival by the Guizers
or the Shetland isles at the end of
January, at Lerwick.
Thirty squads of from six to twenty
persons each are formed, and every
squad has a distinctive fancy dress.
A fine model of Morse galley is
built, gilded and decked with glitter
ing shields and Morse raven banners
Sometimes there are two or three
small galleys.
Early on Up-Helly day an immense
poster, attested by the sign manual
of the Worthy Chief Guizer, is placed
at the market cross, declaring the
route of the procession.
In the afternoon the children par
ade the streets, drawing pretty little
models of galleys and dancing round
little bonfires, in which the galleys are
burnt.
In the evening there is a torchlight
procession of Guizers. The great gal
ley, with a crew of quaintly-attired
musicians. Is drawn through the town
and afterwards burnt in the market
close.
Then bands of Guizers, still in
fancy dress, make house-to-house Wis
its in the town, and eat, drink and
dance far into the night with their
Observation-Disclosures Mirror.

WriqqIes-A Game.

The worse artist you are, the more
fun this game is!
Give each player a pad and pencil
and have each draw short crooked
line on the paper. Then let each ex-
change pads with his neighbor. The
person who receives his neighbor's
pad must then make a picture-bird,
beast or whatever else he pleases-in
which he incorporates his neighbor's
"wriggle" and makes it heavier in out
line, so as to distinguish it from the
rest of the drawing.
Shouts of laughter will greet the
drawings when they are hung up for
exhibition.
A prize should be awarded to the
cleverest, and also to the most ridicu-
lCus one, and the artist of each one
should be compelled to rise and ac-
cept his prize and bow his acknowl-
edgments to the audience.

Man-Eatinq Tiger Scared.

One day while two brothers were
cutting bamboos near a village in
India a man-eating tiger sprang out
of the jungle on one of them, knocked
him down and was about to carry him
off when the other flung himself on
the brute's back and shouted at the
top of his voice. The tiger was so
surprised at the novelty of the attack
that it dropped it's prey, shook of its
rider and bolted. Unhappily. the
victim had been so badly bitten and
otherwise mauled that he did not
recover. These man-eating tigers are
the curse of the villages. They are
tigers past active work that skulk
about in the long grass on the chance
of swapping up an easy meal. The
incident is interesting as proving
once more the effect of the human
voice, loudly ard vigorously used
upon wild animals.

WAYS THAT BRING BAD LUCK.
Waste Is Not Generosity, Nor Is
Thrift Stinginess.

There Is an old superstition that IL
is bad luck to burn piece of bread.
The origin of this is obvious, says
the Saturday Evening Post, though
probably few indeed of those who re-
ligiously adhere to the superstition
have paused to think that it dates
from those times when families were
part of the regular order of life.
Famine no longer troubles the
imagination of men; but the broad
truth under the foolish superstition
remains. Burning bread isn't any
more likely to bring bad luck than
wasting it in another way. But vast
ing anything in any way is extreme
provocation to what we call bad
luck" II the grown people who
habitually waste do not suffer for it
their children surely will-for they
will follow the example set them, and
rare indeed is it that family can sur
yive the faults of two successive
wasteful generations.
Waste is not generosity; thrift is
not stinginess. There are millions OF
Americans, especially among the poor
and the not-too-well-off, who seem to
think so. A thorough investigation
would place at the head of the list OF
causes of poverty: "Wastefulness in
herited from wasteful parents.

Little Lesson in livinq.

We all take life too seriously, of
course, but to some it is a mountain
Of duties that must never be lost sight
Of Some day | am going to remain
in bed and rest to my hearts content"
said a tired woman one day, as she
went over the list of things that she
thought must be done. That was five
years ago, and recently she was asked
if she had found "some day." and she
confessed that she had not. She never
will, for she will never be able to dig
through the mountain she was foolish
enough to build uINyears ago. She has
forgotten how to live. That is the
trouble with many of us.

Witch Fortune Party

Boys and girls may find much
amusement at a witch fortune telling
party, such as is described here.
The boy or girl through whom the
'all wise" witch speaks takes his or
her place behind a curtain, as is
shown in the accompanying picture,
No. /. The presence of this person
must be kept a secret from the guests,
who are seated in the parlor. facing
the curtain, or cabinet" as it may be
called.
Let us take it for granted that the
principal performing in the cabinet
is boy named John, thus simplifying
the description.
The curtain to form the cabinet is
hung diagonally across one corner of
the room, leaving space behind it for
a person to sit comfortably on a
chair. In the center of this curtain
at the height of a boys shoulders, is
a perpendicular slit about twenty
inches long. (Shown in picture No.
L. John takes his seat in the cabi-
net just before the guests arrive, his
wrists and doubled up fists prepared
represent the witch. First, after
binding the wrists together with a
piece of muslin, the fists are rounded
out by wrappings of cotton batting.
Over this is drawn smoothly a white
cloth to form a head. On the front
side-the side that will look toward
the audience-features are painted
with ink and water colors. Over the

dren. The Chicago school board has
been having a medical examination OF
certain pupils before allowing them to
take part in certain athletic sports.
Boys and girls were subjected to the
same examination. Not one girl was
found unable to pass, while large
number of the boys, in almost every
case smokers, were found to be in
physical condition which made violent
exercise of any kind very dangerous.
Twenty-one out of hundred were
found unfit, and all but three suffered
from some form of heart trouble. Al
most without exception the unfit ones
were cigarette smokers.

How to Earn Sound Sleep.

All doctors are not SO careful OF
the welfare of their patients as they
might be. Here is a story of one who
tor of a famous health resort not far
from -. When he receives a pa
tient for treatment he says:
Now, l want it understood that un-
less you do exactly as | say, there is
no use of your staying"
This rule sometimes requires him to
be very harsh, but he never hesitates.
He acts on the theory that he can bet
ter afford to offend a single patient
and lose him that to have that pa
tient go back home and tell his friends
DR.. So-and-So had done him no good,
relates the Washington Star.
Not long ago a well-known clergy
The doctor looked him over upon his
arrival and said:
while you are here you must take
long walks every day"
But l can't take walks" replied
the parson. Il haven't done any walk
ing for years. My heart won't stand
it,
They argued the question quite
warmly AS the clergyman and doc
tor were good friends, the latter was
more lenient than usual. However,
he bided his time. The next after
noon the physician said to the clergy
man:
IT'S a nice day. | would like you
tc go horseback riding with me-"
Riding they went. When they were
about eight miles from the sanitarium
the physician said: "Oh, doctor, won't
you get me that flower by the road
side? | don't like to leave this
hcrse.'
AS soon as the clergyman was on
the ground the doctor galloped off
with both horses, and the clergyman
was compelled TO walk back to the
sanitarium. Upon his arrivel he was
very angry. and was for packing up
and leaving at once. There was no
train that night, so he was forced to
stay a few hours longer. The next
morning he came down radiant and
good natured.
Doctor" said he, Il was pretty
sore at you last night, but | forgive
everything. l have had the first good
sleep | have enjoyed in months. Here
after I'll obey your order implicitly"

Quaint Horn Dance.

Among the quaint old customs and
ceremonies still kept alive in coun-
try districts there is only one horn
dance" and that is to be found at Abb
bots Bromley, in Staffordshire. Every
year at the village wake the dance
is still carried out. The origin of the
horn dance is lost in the mists of
history. but it has been traced back
as far as the eleventh century. Until
the seventeenth century it was prac-
ticed at Christmas, on New Years
day and on Twelfth day. In the time
of Henry VIII. the dance was per-
formed in front of the church every
Sunday, and a collection for the poor
taken up from the spectators.

that fortune telling witch is in the
cabinet and that she will soon make
her appearance. telling the future,
past and present to those desiring to
possess such knowledge.
Then John thrusts his fists (the
witch IS head out through the open
ing in the curtain, and in a high fall
setto voice says Good eve to you,
ladies fair, and gentlemen brave. l
am here to read to you the things that
Fate DEGREES shall come to pass. Let
those who would have the mystery of
the future solved rise, one at a time,
to their feet
AS he has been speaking, John
has pressed the body of the witch
through the curtain, making her wag
right, forward and back, in a most
humorous fashion.
AS the guests rise, one at time,
in accordance with the witch's order,
John tells the fortunes in the same
disguised voice. which seems to speak
her head emphatically from left to
from the nodding, dancing witch. Be-
ing enabled to see the person whose
fortune is being told, he can touch
upon little personal affairs that will
cause much fun for the guests.
The two accompanying pictures will
give a good idea of how the witch is
made and the manner in which she
will appear.
