one tripod, and these must be matched
before the couples begin to hunt.
Instead of bobbing for apples first
core them, letting the guests assist
with the work, put in penny for luck,
or some small favors, tie a stout bit
of Irvine through the center of each
piece of fruit and attach the strings to
the chandelier or ceiling where they
will hang free. Put them at such a
distance from the floor that each guest
will have to stand on tiptoe or jump
to get bite, and when their hands are
securely fastened behind them let all
the boys and girls begin. The one
who first gets away an apple and gets
out the favor with his or her teeth
should receive a prize.
Decorations for Halloween parties
may be elaborate or as simple as a
hostess desires, for anything, so long
as it is characteristic, is appropriate.
A room ornamented with pumpkin
vines made Of green and yellow crepe
paper, with small pumpkins contain
ing lighted candles, is an effective fin
ish for a dining room. Autumn leaves
stuck in the corners of an apartment
and vases filled with bright yellow
golden rod, make an attractive decor
alton for a st. Agnes eve function.
Witches, skeletons, jack-o'-lanterns,
strung on black ribbons and festooned
about room and above a table, make
stunning ornamentation.

FASHIONS decree that the ensuing

skirts and not to the colors Of her
gowns No longer is it considered
good form for a grande dame to herald
her approach by rafting of many
silken skirts, although she wears robes
in which handsome silks play an inn

such important events of early au-

WITHIN the past few weeks a most
w extraordinary case of alleged re-
ncarnation-claimed to be the soul OF
a British officer-has made its appear
ance in Burma. 1t is the second Of its
kind in recent years, and has accord
ingly attracted widespread attention.
Reincarnation is a fundamental doc
trine of Buddhism, and reincarnation
of human identity, in human form,
though changed in outward aspect, is
called a "minza." AS a rule, the

child, in no way different from his
childish companions. l cannot do bet
ter than quote the account of the Ran
COON Times:
There is a little blue-eyed, light |
haired boy here, between and years
old, the son of Woodworking and mat !
ter-of-fact Burmese parents belonging
to the laboring class, who until quite
recently prattled like any other child
of that age. The other day, however,
he astonished his mother by gravely
claiming that he was the late Major

to life again, and went on to describe
the house where he had previously
lived, the number of ponies he had.
and other personal matters.
His mother was frightened, and

queer albino repeated his story, de-
scribing how he and two others-a
lady and gentleman-were drowned

at night in March, 1904, when the
three and only occupants Of The boat
persisted.
THAT is the year in which Mrs.

Major Welsh. both of the Border Regl-

Large crowds assemble daily to
hear the little child-man speak. OF
