A New authors" Game

The good old game of authors
never seems to lose its popularity
with boys and girls who are fond of
reading, and probably never will as
another generation takes 1t up with
new zest as one lays it down. But
homemade version of the same
sport will be found an enjoyable SUBJ
stitute for it evenings at home.
This is called Kings and Queens
and not little general information
is interviewer with the fun of prepar-
ing and playing it. Here is the
method.
Cut from white cardboard sixty
four blank cards buying the cardboard
with as high glaze as possible in
order to make the cards shuttle we'll
Instead of writer's Of prose and
poetry use the name of some king
or queen with three of his or her
most celebrated subjects.
Each of these celebrated persons
have specially dedicated card, with
the remaining three names written in
smaller lettering below, thus complet-
ing group corresponding to that of
the author and three of his works.
The Popes with the great men of
their times can be used in the same
way, and Of course, our Presidents,
too, with contemporary statesmen,
generals and philanthropists or phil
osophers.
Here are specimen groups to illus
trate the idea:
Queen Elizabeth.
Sir Walter Raleigh.
William Shakespeare.
Sir Francis Drake.
Louis XVI.

Use up Your Coal, Dust

Housekeepers frequently find diff
ficulty in using coal dust so as to
avoid waste. An excellent way is to
place piece of paper about ten
inches long and about six inches wide,
pile coal dust on it, lift carefully,
and place gently on the fire. The
corner of the paper will, of course,
catch fire, but the part under the
coal dust will remain. If left undis-
turbed this will gradually burn
through and improve the fire, instead
of causing the usual deafness that
results from burning coal dust.

Chinaman?" asked one of Commits

never did, and / have seen a whole

according to every other Indication,

still sport pigtails as black and glossy
as any youth in Chinatown. Whether
gray hairs have been denied the
Chinese by nature of whether they
have been fought Off by means Of
some secret oriental formula / cannot
find out. If they owe their immunity
from gray hair to artifice they would
do themselves and the public a good

Street Gowns in Shades Of Blue

All shades Of blue have been ex-
quisitely combined with gun metal,
smoke and pearl gray this season.
Street costumes of turquoise blue are
not uncommon-in fact, they are more
to the fore by daylight than for eve
ming, when artificial Illumination en-
hances the shade. Pastel tones and
SAKE blues are found among accepted
evening shades. Very often delicate
flowers are scattered in careless pro-
fusion over the soft surface of silk
gauzes chiffons and liberty tissues;
then again, great punches of pompa-
dour roses seem to show in shadow

material. Pattern robes having deep

Teach the Boy

To be true to his word and work.
To respect religion for its own

To face all difficulties with cour-

To respect other peoples convic-

To reverence womanhood
To live clean life in thought and
word as we'll as in deed
That true manliness always COM
mands success.
That the best things in life are not
those that can be bought with money
That to command he must first
learn to obey.
That there can be no compromise
between honesty and ishonesty.
That the virtues of punctuality and
politeness are excellent things to
cultivate.
That a gentleman is just what the
word implies-a man who is gentle

To Clean Kitchen Walls

First, pour some clear kerosene in
to basin, then take soft cloth and
dip it into the kerosene and wash a

another cloth out Of nice hot soapy
water and go over the spot just
cleaned with kerosene, and lastly
wipe with clean dry cloth. You will
be surprised at the result.

borders of garlands in pronounced

An EnIdemIc of PurnIe.

To change the subject to the ever fertile one of dress, we are certainly having an epidemic of purple.
 Every fourth woman one meets on the street seems to be trying to emu late the purple cow of renown. On the other hand, the fancy for brown seems to have run itself out, and there are comparatively few suits Of this color.
 It Is odd how the fashionable color changes Last winter it was brown, last spring 1t was green; this winter It is purple. It is a good thing If you
 want to keep in style to have good "all around" complexion.
 A great many black stoles and nuns are sold of a curious fur known as Persian paw I am sorry, but all can think of is that old dog Tray has been slaughtered and his skin sewed up to make a Roman holiday. Still, there is no accounting for tastes, and the fur I speak of is growing in popularity. Fur coats are decidely more friv- olous in apearance. For one thing. the storm collar does not appear on many of the new models, and instead rich embroidered strappings decorate the collarless effect.
 I saw charming little mink bolero the other day. 1t was worn with a high girdle and skirt of brown velvet. The bolero was so cut that the stripes crossed diagonally over the bust. The sleeves were three-quarter length-an- other innovation in a fur garment-and they had wide cuffs or passementerie. with fluffy frill of lace.

Nine Kittens Had Their Eyes Opened
 Last Night.
 Nine kittens had their eyes opened wide by the Concatenated Order of Hoo-Hoos at a. concatenation held last night on the roof of a building adja- cent to Court Square and when they opened their eyes they saw such things as they had never witnessed before.
 As is we'll known the order of Hoo- Hoo is an, organization of lumbermen, railroad officials and newspaper men and meetings are held only at the call of the Vicegerent Shark of a division of the order. The meeting in Montgom cry last night was upon the call of F. P. Mccormick of Montgomery. Vice gerent Shark for the Central Division of Alabama.
 Promptly at the stroke of o'clock the Hoo-Hoos began to get ready and the meeting was opened at 9:09 o'clock with w. J. Wallace of Nashville, Tenn, former Vicegerent Shark of Tennessee, presiding The other chairs were fill ed as follows: W. s. Fleming, Senior Hoo-Hoo: W. w Rathburn. Junior Hoo-Hoo: c. A. Adams, Guerdon; F. P Flowers. Bojum; T. w. Webb, JeB- berwock; B. H. Cox, Arcanoper; J. A. Janney, Scrivenoter; and R. J. Meyers, Custocatiop.
 Among Hhe visiting lumbermen pres- ent were w A. Nnl and J. w. Hunni- cutt of Wick.

 We are in receipt of some copies of

 There are plenty of women fools who speculate or who lend money without sufficient security or else out of friend ship. In nearly every case they never see 1t again. We'll, is any one to blame but themselves?
 Then you take the really poor people. Very often they do nothing to get out of that condition. They cannot even do their onn simple cooking half the time, and they waste their money when they have 1t buying cooked things at deIicatessen stores to save themselves the trouble. I have had settlement workers tell me of this over and over again.
 Not one working mans wife out of ten can make good bread. When she is able to get a joint of meat she throws away the bone instead of keep ing it to make soup.
 The children grow up with even less knowledge of household lore than their mothers. They cannot cook the simp- lest things. much less wash and iron. and keep a house tidy. They either starve or work in mills or shops and finally marry some man in order to keep him poor through wastefulness
