Tangled Bank Accounts.

ut is remarkable" said an old ba1k
employee, "how few people keep their
bank accounts absolutely correct At
ordinary times this failing is not con-
spicuous, because books are usually
balanced when there Is still a credit
to the depositors account. When the
balanced book is received with the
vouchers the usual discrepancy Il
found after much labor in an omitted
entry, either deposit or check or In the
form of an error in addition or sub
traction. The thing is usually settled
at home without our help. But when
a lot of women go to a bank, each
one with a check already made out
representing her balance, then look
out. Fortunately ! have had no ex-
perience in that way, but know that
not one woman in ten-and l am char
liable with the fgure-keeps her book
correctly, and many women keep no
record at all. We have one depositor
who used to receive an overdraft no
tice regularly every month. Now, by
an arrangement with her, we give her
notice when the balance nears the 500
mark. Men laugh at the women for
their failure to keep their bank ac-
counts right. but except when a book
keeper does the work for them the men
are nearly as bad."-New York Trib-

FoK THE CHILDREN
The Garden Gate,

This Is a pretty game for children.
A ring is formed of all the players ex-
cept one, who stands in the middle.
The others dance around her three
times, and when they stop she begins
to sing:
"open wide the garden gate, the garden
gate, the garden gate,
Open wide the garden gate and let me
through"
The circle then dances round her
again, singing:
"Get the key Of the garden gate. garden
gate, garden gate,
Get the key of the garden gate, open and
let yourself through"
The girl inside the circle, pretending
to sob, replies:
1--WE lost the key of the garden gate. the
garden gate, the garden gate,
I've lost the key of the garden gste and
cannot let myself through"
But the dancers dance round and
round her, singing:
"You may stop all night within the gate,
within the gate,
You may stop all night within the gate,
unless you've strength to break
through"
The captive then rushes to the weak
est part of the ring and tries to break
through by throwing her whole weight
upon the clasped hands of the children
and generally contrives to break
through, the one whose hand gives
way becoming captive In her stead.

Insect and Net.

1t has been known for a long time
that an insect will not fly through a
net with meshes three or four times
as large as Its body, whereas a bird
will go through a mesh of correspond
ing size without hesitation. The in
sect cannot tell us why it stops and
lights on the net without trying to go
through, and its peculiar action puz-
lied observers until the scientists took
the matter up, as they do all things Of
that kind. They say that the eye Of
the insect is made up Of many facets
so that the net looks to it like a con-
tinuous opaque surface, the meshes not
being apparent. Therefore it stops OF
turns back before it discovers that 1t
might have gone through the net with
out stopping. To the eye of the bird,
however, the meshes are plainly Wis
ible, and it goes through without hest.

Snow Sport.

A delightful game to play in the win
ter holidays, when the long hours drag
within doors, is snow fox and geese,
says the Washington Star.
A very slight snowfall will suffice
for the game, but 1t may be played
with snow foot deep in city back
yard or in the field Of the country.
The game is prepared by the boys, who
first, with high boots. trample in the
snow a huge circle. with six or eight
diametric paths as the size of the lot
may allow. After these paths are
clearly marked the fun begins. Any
number may join in the sport. 1t is
like the old story of THE Spider and
the Fly" One person stands in the
center of the circle and dashes up and
down the diametric paths to seize upon
the others as they fly around the circle.
The players can venture into the cen
ter If they are so daring, but If caught
they become the spider and dash for
another victim. The one who is catch
ing cannot walk around the circum-
ference, but is confined to the central
paths.
