Serving Fruit,

The ideal housewife is the one who can serve plain food in perfect man. her. Even water can look so unattrac- tive that one does not care to drink it unless forced by extreme thirst. Tea and coffee are simple beverages, very easy to make in the right way, but quite as often spoiled. Fruit can be served so attractively that one really wants to eat 1t, or it can be placed up on the table in a manner to repel. An orange with a clean skin placed on a spotless plate with a silver knife and spoon as bright as hand can make them and fanked by bowl containing tepid water, also placed fin a plate, but with a dainty dolly between them, is appetizing, whether you care for or anges or not. And that is the way dainty women serve fruit in the nat ural.-Minneapoils Tribune.

Children will naturally despise ly entrapping their unwary feet or be- ing turned topsy turvy by their small hands even when they don't mean to. Encourage children and young people to make collections of objects from na- ture-ferns, wild flowers, stones, lichens and curious growths.

LIZARDS TAIL.
A Game That Is Played by Japanese
 Bows and Girls.

A Name Ih0t 1s flaye0 ny Japanese
 Boys and Girls.
 Catching the lizards tail" is an out door game often played by Japanese boys and girls. One of the children having been made catcher, another is then chosen for the lizards head, or leader. and the other players form one long line behind, each putting his or her hands on the shoulders of the one in front. This represents the lizards body, and the last one in the line is the tail.
 Then the fun begins. The catcher, standing little way off, facing the lizard. suddenly dashes forward and, without touching the others, tries to catch the tail The lizard does her best to protect her tail by moving first this way and then that, with her long body holding on behind. But should any of the players lose hold and thus break the line the tail Is considered caught When the tail is caught he be- comes catcher, and the former catcher becomes leader and takes his place at the head of the line.
 The lizard may move in any direction she likes and is allowed to stretch out her arms to keep off the catcher, but she may not push him away. This is a splendid outdoor game, and any num- Der can play it-in fact "the more the merrier"

THE WAY THE CUT IS MADE.

be careful to draw the needle from out of the hole it made when inserted to make the first stitch. Now the thread completely encircles the apple only just under the skin, and the two ends of the thread are seen hanging loose Zig. 3. Crossing these threads, pull them steadily and firmly in opposite directions, and in few moments the apple will be cut completely in two and the whole of the thread will have been drawn away through one small hole. If nicely done, no sign of a breakage will appear on the surface, although the apple is cut into two parts.

Keep still When trouble is brew ing keep still. When slander is getting on it's legs keep still. When your feel ings are wounded keep still until you recover from your excitement.

 After the death, some two years ago, of Miss Howenstein's aunt she was ap- filled with increasing success. Not only is she busily at work making these delicate drawings of the insects, but is also experimenting in mounting them. for her own satisfaction, and is incidentally gaining much scientific in- formation about both the injurious and beneficial Washington Post.
