A Few Halloween Tricks.
sPEARING THE RING.

To ascertain infallibly which men,
bers of the company will marry soon,
which later, and which not at all, ar
range the test of the ring. This "a plain
gold wedding ring) is suspended by a
cord from a nail in the ceiling or from
the chandelier. Have on hand couple
of steel knitting needles. Each girl in
turn is given needle, the ring Is set in
motion and the Hallowe'ener asked to
spear it. If it is caught in the first
lunge the person in question will marry
early; If on the second, he or she will
enter matrimony late. If tits not caught
in the third attempt single blessedness Is
almost certainly fOreshadowed.
FATEFUL NAMES.
Here the names of all the girls of the
company are written on one set of slips;
those of the men on another. Both sets
are then enclosed in hollow walnut
shells which are glued together after the
names are inserted. Care is necessary
in keeping both sets strictly apart, as
any confusion of the two would spoil the
game. Place the nuts with girls names
afioat in one tub of. water, the mems in
another and provide long dipper. The
men dip from one tub, the girls from
another. When all have had their turn
the nuts sre broken open. If any two
players have drawn each others names,
the inference of match in the future is
very pronounced. When different names
are drawn unrequited affection Is limited
at.
CHRIsTENED APPLES.
An apple frolic which never fails to
amuse and interest, is called Christened
Apples. Necessaries: q bowl of rosy
apples and large wooden spoon. Each
person in turn selects from the dish
rosy apple which he or she secretly
names, giving it the title of some person
of the opposite sex concerning whom the
spirits Of the hour are specially invoked.
The fruit Is then poised on the wooden
spoon, and carrying it the player runs
around the room. II the fruit is safely
the course, his or her case
is extremely hopeful; II the fruit falls
success Is extremely doubtful.
HALLOWEEN CUPS.
There should be six in number. Ar
range them along the edge of table, or
in other similar place. The person to
whom the future Is to be revealed stands
facing the cups, aud with eyes closed
selects one. The cups are shifted after
the eyes of the questioner are closed. In
each cup lies some trifle the mysterious
Of which Ii Of great Significance.
A thimble and a button In one cup
means bachelor or spinsterhood; the
dime In another stands for wealth; the
ring, for approaching marriage; two
rings, for q widow or widower In ones
destiny, according to circumstances; .
pink paper heart, . love match; nit
;en, unrequited lovs.-Ex.

tions positive injury" and he shows
conclusively that they do not truly rep
resent the agricultural situation. He
says of Maine:
Now, what is the condition in Maine
agriculturally? Never in its history did
the State produce so much in volume or
value as in 1906. For years there has
been steady increase in all farm crops.
One county-Aroostoo produced from
II, 900, 900 to 100000 bushels of pota-
toes, making the total of the State very
close to 100000 bushels. The hay
crop was over 100000 tons, worth in
the barns from $40, 1000, 900 to 81, 900, 900.
One diary corporation is paying our
farmers from 100000 to 5000, 900 year
ly for cream, while other factories are
continually increasing their product.
Our fruit industry is steadily increas-
ing, new orchards being planted, larger
areas set to small fruits and $4,000, 900
is low estimate for the fruit products
of single year. These are few of the
many illustrations which might easily
be presented, and they are facts, not
misleading statistics; they tell of the
agricultural progress of the State. Be-
yond this is the fact that year by year
there is steady increase of deposits IN
all our rural savings banks, indicating
the prosperity of our farmers. Another
straw is the growing demand for farm
property, which sells this year for Is to
20 per cent higher than ten years ago.
