This is popular game for young
people on the Pacific coast and will
doubtless prove entertaining at your
party. Provide as many deep dishes
of water as you have couples. Place
these on small card tables, protecting
the tops of the tables with towels
or folded newspapers. On top of each
dish of water set dozen peanuts
floating. Each contestant is then fur
nished with hat pin and the game
is called. The object is to lab" the
nuts with the pin and land them in
pretty dish provided for that object
without touching them with the fin
gers. When time is called the couple
that has been most successful, retains
the nuts in lieu of score cards. The
game is progressive, the successful
contestants advancing toward the
head table. Prizes may be in keeping
with the season.

WORK WHILE OTHERS SLEEP.
From 2 to 8 A. NJ. tho Mind 1. At
Its Best,

Its Best.
The old theory that one hour Of sleep
before midnight is worth two hours
after may be ut the bottom of the new,
est theory of effective work. At any
rate. Professor Victor Hallopcau, of
the Paris Academy of Medicine. saws
that the best Intellectual work can be
accomplished between midnight and
dawn. His explanation follows:
The true secret of lone-continued.
valuable braln-work is to cut the night
In two. The scholar, the inventor. the
financier, the literary creator, should
be asleep every night by 10 o'clock, to
wake again at, say, in the morning.
Three hours work, from 2 to S, in the
absolute tranquility of the silent
bours, should mean the revealing of
new powers, new possibilities, n wealth
OF Ideas undreamed of under the pre-
valling system.
From s to 8 or $50 sleep again.
Take up again the days work; the
brain will still be saturated with the
mental fruits of the night-ylgil: there
VIII be no effort in putting into prac-
tice or carrying further what was plan
ed or begun those few hours before.
The habit may be hard to acquire.
but mechanical means of waking. at
'nrst, VIII induce the predlspositlon.
Lott has long hid the habit of M
working, and declares his best
thoughts, his clearest intellectual Wis.
ion, his choicest phrases, come to him
when he works fresh from sleep, with
all the world still in dreamland about
him.
With such authority to rest upon,
there Is no reason to doubt that ambi-
tious students will quickly increase the
demand for midnight oil.

A CLIMBING DOC


Can dog climb tree?" asks the
Chicago News. In answer it prints
the following from correspondent:
While on a walk on snowshoes in
New Hampshire We tracked porcu.
pine to balsam fir in which 1t had
taken refuge. My Scottish terrier
climbed the tree, pulling herself up
from branch to branch to height Of
about seven feet, where space Of
bare trunk separated her from
the -porcupine, which had watched
her progress with evident alarm.
The terrier made several inef-
fectual attempts to scale the
smooth bark, and finally jumped
down into the snow" And of another
curious trait the same writer contin-
ues: This little dog and her mate,
now dead, though enthusiastic fire
worshippers at home, never sat near
the bonfires built at luncheon or tea
time on winter walks, but dug holes
in the snow at little distance, in
which they curled themselves zap. at.

ELEPHANT WHICH SMOKED UP"
One of the attractions going the
rounds of the vaudeville houses now
is a herd of performing elephants.
Performing animals, as rule, become
a bore after a time, especially when
you see different troupes do the same
old stunts all over again. But these
elephants seemed unusually intelli.

which he lit and struck in the mouth
of the largest elephant, the audience
gasped. Sure enough the animal held
the pipe firmly in his mouth from
which great volumes of smoke poured
forth. the elephant apparently enjoy
ing his puffs.
Wonderful! Who'd have believed
it?" exclaimed the audience.
However, they did not see the stage

Willet F. Cook, advertising manager
of Judge, tells the following story of
an incident that happened at Schenec-
tady Park last Saturday: In spirited
baseball game the first baseman was
knocked senseless by the swift run

time it was thought the man was ac-
tually dead. Relays of ball players

What are the component parts OF
the beverage? Iced tea, sugar and a
little claret. Not enough claret to

stuff within the compass of single

parts tea to one part claret, with just
enough sugar added to make it sweet
to the taste. This amount will, of
course, vary with different people.

MAY DAY LABOR TROUBLES.
Paris Will Not Bring Extra Troops.
Danger Elsewhere.

Paris, April 29-The fear of extensive
trouble in connection with May day labor
demonstrations has practically disap-
peared, so far as Paris is concerned. The
authorities have decided that it will not
be necessary to bring additional troops.
Last years disposition of troops and po-
lice will be repeated Wednesday. Meet
ings of workmen will be permitted. but
no street professions. Several of the
more violent socialist agitators already
have been arrested. Dispatches from the
provinces indicate that the governments
energetic measures TO preserve order at
all hazards have dampened the ardor of
the labor organizations and many of them
have abandoned the idea of making dem
onstratons, believing they would only
lead to collisions with the police. in which
the workmen would be the greatest suf-
ferers. Trouble is likely, however in the
larger seaports-Toulon, Brest, Torrent,
Cherbourg and in the interior cities OF
Rouen, Lyons and Limoges which are
revolutionary hotbeds.
