SOME NEW POPULAR SONGS.
One Of the popular songs in ''Higgledy
Pfggledy'' is a ballad, THE Game of
Love- sung by Trixie Friganza, and
Charles A. Bigelow, as follows:
There are many kinds of girls.
And they have just as many arts,
And there isn't any second way
OF reading women's hearts;
But in playing in the game of love
The sex is rather keen
For example, there's the bashful bud
OF sweet sixteen.
Refrain
If you ask her if she loves you
She. will look up 50 and sigh
And let you read the answer
In her downcast eye.
But if she were strictly honest
And would tell the truth to yous
She loves a lot Of fellows. but
She'll try and love you, too.
I suppose as maids grow older
They to fewer lovers lean,
And incline more to the retail way
OF running loves machine.
Now, when sweet sixteen is twenty,
Then will lovers prove a. bore,
And win any sutton suit her
When she's tWenty-fOur2
Refrain
If you ask, then, If she loves you,
With a smile serenely sad,
She'll say wedlock for women
Is a worn out fad.
There is some one thing OF other
That the world needs her to do,
But she'll love you as q brother
If you think that that will do.

For a girl to make light

THERE were six of them in the smok-
ing compartment Of the Limited
Express between New Y ork and Chicago.
Fate, which delights in such whimsical
contrasts, had elected that they should
be classified as Inventor, Statesman,
Detective, Journalist Telegraph Oper-
ator and Coroner. At first they pulled
away in silence, filling the stuTy
little room with clouds of tobacco
smoke.
Presently the Inventor asked for a
match, and when in fit of his usual
absent -mindedness he had opened his
cardcase and gravely slowed the little
waxen stick therein and then gazed
vacantly at his unlighted cigar they
recognized his vocation in flash and
pounced upon him as a miner would
clutch at bit of pure gold in a mass
of common ore. They all laughed at
the Inventor-and in their hearts looked
on him with reverence. After that 1t
required only few minutes to get ac-
quainted and to identify each man
with the calling in which he had
made his worldly success. By one of
the peculiar perversities of our human

INY-DAY DIVERSION

you are ought to puzzle out tnat Simple
little trick for yourselves. Instead, Ill
show YOU another. Each of you choose
a number of three or four or more figures
and multiply it by nine. Do it on paper;
don't trust to your mental process. Well,
Lucy, how many figures are in your an
swer?"
-Four figures, Uncle Bob
Tell me any three of them, in their
proper order and III tell you the number
you first selected"
THE last three figures of my answer
are $50"
Then you chose o5t in the first place"
''Yes, l did Oh, how can you tell?"
"How many figures have you in your
answer, Fred?"
''Seven figures, uncle"
Tell me all but one, and say x for
that one
'All right, l have II3xS35."
Uncle Fred jotted a few figures down
on paper. In moment he said: Then
you took Io6SI5 for your multiplicand. l."
Yes, | did" answered his nephew,
looking thoughtfully; but l can't see
how YOU know"
We uOllc dlCllcl, bllclc DOD, CllSd
Lucy, and my answer has oS for its
first three figures. There are four figures
in it altogether.
"Ah, Lucy, you have struck the weak
point of this trick. 1t is only small
one, but it prevents my telling you the
exact number you chose. 1t was, how
ever, either 2ac or 22I."
Why, | think that's more wonderful
than if you had guessed it outright, y
said Lucy. How could you tell that?"
Il will explain it all to you now.
1.-The first trick l showed you is based
on the fact that a number is divisible
by nine if the sum of its dgits is Invisible
by nine. Hence, to the number given,
figures may be added, prefxed or in
serted, if care is taken to make the
whole sum of the digits a multiple of
nine.
For the other trick, when all but one
of the figures in the number are told,
add them up, and subtract the sum
from the next higher multiple of nine.
The remainder will be the missing figure
for which X stood. Supply this, and
divide by nine, using pencil and paper,
if need be, and the quotient will be the
original chosen number. The weak point
is when the chosen number ends with
cipher. and the last figure of the result
is the one represented by an x. For
instance, if $50 be chosen, and you tell
me that III are the first three figures of
your product, l cannot tell whether
you chose $50 or 1871. But verify that
for yourself by experiment"

n turn of mind, and when Uncle Bob
came to visit them, and said that he
knew lot of tricks with numbers, they
were all glad that it was rainy after
noon, and they settled down in the cosy
library for frst-rate time.
Fred said he didn't believe Uncle Bobs
tricks really were new, for they had
secured every book of arithmetical diver
sions; and it would be pretty hard to
find a catch or a bubble that was I'M
known to the Boylston children.
Lucy privately agreed with her
brothers opinion; but she sat with pad
and pencil in hand, ready to give Uncle
Bob the benefit of the doubt.
Well" said that man, care you
sure YOU are familiar with all the pecu-
liar powers of the number nine? If not,
I'll show you something of its erratic
ways Write down row of numbers,
please"
How many, unc1e?" asked Lucy.
1T doesn't matter. Write as many
as YOU like. You too, Fred, write a
row of figures"
The children did so, and Lucy showed
s764oa3r5, while Fred showed only s35.
Now said Uncle Bob, Il will add
or prefix or insert as many figures as
you desire me to, in each of your lists,
and the completed number in each case
shall be exactly divisible by nine
"Whewl" said Fred That's a new
one to me! Here, uncle, do mine first,
will your Add three figures at the end
of the line. prefix two at the beginning
and insert two between my eight and
three"
"All right, my boy" and Uncle Bob
rapidly made the desired changes. Then
Fred's line read 7aS293535r.
Quickly Fred divided the long line
by nine, and when he found no remainder
he stared at his uncle in undisguised
establishment.
Now do mine," cried Lucy. III
take four at the beginning one alternated
between each of mine, and one at the
end"
= Here you are, then" and Uncle
Bob made Lucy's line read: 23I3S5746-
247QS2432I554.
1t took Lucy sometime to divide this
by nine, but the result was satisfactory,
and, too, the long line proved Uncle
Bob's cleverness better than the short
one.
Several times they tried the game, but
it always came out right, and moreover
Uncle Bob set down his figures as fast
as his pencil could fly over the paper.

 The premium list in the Woman's department has just been prepared by Mrs. w. F. Nichols, who will act as superintendent. This list covers needlework of all kinds, drawnwork, typography, oil painting, water colors, pastels and photography. In the culinary division premiums are offered for all kinds of breads, cakes and fancy dishes, and there should be a large and attractive display. Judges in these several divisions will be carefully selected and no doubt competition will make this depart ment highly interesting.

Made Her Dance.

A wild and woolly incident occur red last week in a saloon, where, as an attraction, comedy young woman sings, and plays the piano as an ac- compartment to her well trained voice.
 A daredevil girl, who was masked and accompanied by male relative, entered this resort and proceeded straight to the piano girl, who was doing her evening stunt.
 "Get off that stool and dance, said the d. d. girl.
 The command was ignored. 'DO you hear? Get off that stool and dance," she repeated, at the same time drawing a gun and firing very close to the low-necked shoes of the p. g.
 The astonished saloon girl obeyed with alacrity and both feet, and danced vigorously and strenuously until the other was satisfied.
 The cartridge was blank, and the band played on.-Yuma Sentinel.
