The line you make must be either
straight or curved. but must not have
angles in it.
All of the enemy's Os that the line
passes through are killed. Dead sol
diers.
Keep on taking turns until one or
the other of you has killed every one
of your enemy's soldiers.
Count the number of shots it took
to win the battle.
Then clear the slate and have an
other battle, with the same number
of soldiers.
You can fight as many battles as you
please. When you are ready to quit
for the day, then compare the sum to-
tai of shots fired by the victors. and
the final victory will belong to the
one who shot the fewest shots in all.

HOW TO TEST LINSEED OIL

There is nothing that will make
paint go wrong on the house more
quickly than poor oil. 1t is as bad in
Its way as adulterations in the white
lead. Petroleum oil cheapeners may
be detected by placing drop of the oil
on black painted surface. If one sees
the characteristic iridescence or play
of colors which kerosene exhibits, it
is evidence of adulteration. Corn and
fish oil can be detected by the smell.
Adulteration in white lead can best
be discovered by the use of blow
pipe, which National Lead Company
will send with instructions free to
anyone interested in paint. Address,
National Lead Company, Woodbridge
Building, New York.

BULLDOG HALTS THE DANCE.
Holds Up Soldiers Because Master
Fails to Appear.

Beverly, n. bob, a bulldog be-
longing to Lieut.. Frank J. Toner, held
members of Company G, Third regi-
ment, National guard, at bay and de-
layed drill and dance which the sol
dier boys were to have had the other
night. Somehow Bob a ferocious
brute and generally muzzled, got lost
from his master. Seeing the door of
the armory hall open, he mounted the
stairs, knowing that the master fre.
quented the building. The canine
searched high and low and ventured
into the parlor and proceeded to give
Capt James V. Cain, who was seated
at his desk, a military salute. The
captain did not like the tone and
quickly made his exit to find a more
secure place, not relishing the idea of
quarreling over the right of posses
sion.
After inspecting the military accou-
terments and being apparently salts
fled that his master was not there
Bob conceived the idea of waiting at
the head of the stairs until his master
appeared. Suddenly the door was flung
open and with hilarious shout the
soldiers started on a run up the stairs
Bob's unmusical growl could be heard
above the noise, and the foremost fell
back as if hit by a Hotchkiss gun. No
amount of cOaXing or pet names could
remove Bob from his position. 1t was
a matter of 20 minutes before the
master showed up, after he was sent
for to rescue the soldiers.
