He Told Her a Lie.
My Dear Miss Doom:
l am engaged to a man whom [ like
very much. Last week he too me out
for a days pleasure. He sent home
postals and let me see all but one. Now,
when he put them in the box l saw
who this one was for. 1t was for a
young lady who nursed him when he
was sick. l asked him who the postal
was for, and he told me for some man
he knew. 1 told him 1t was a false
hood, as I saw the name. Then he only
smiled. Now, Miss Doom. why did he
not want me to know he sent her a
postal? He travels and boards at her
home when In the city where she lives.
Do you think he Is false to me?
M. A.
1 think he wanted to send h postal
to he1, but did not want. you to know
it for fear you would become angry. Ii
he was Indifferent to you he would not
have tried to hide the card. OF course,
il was wrong for him to lie about 1t,
but YOU car forgive him when you
realize Why he did it, can't you? Tell
him plainly that you are disappointed
in him and that you do not like under
hand actions. 1t was only natural for
him to send her a postal. They must
be pretty good friends If he boards at
her home. I would not be jealous, If
l were you. Ask him to be more frank
in the future.

Cnra of the Pfnno.

A piano is a very delicate instrument.
and requires careful treatment IL It's life
Is to be a long and useful one. A musi-
clan gives the following hints, which are
worth bearing in mind:
Never leave a piano in a damp room.
Damp rusts both strings and tuning
pegs It also swells the felt on ham,
mers and hampers, causing the mechan-
ism to sluggishly.
Do not place heavy loads of books or
ornaments on top of a piano. otherwise
1t may retaliate by emitting d~iscordant
sounds
For busting the case use an old soft
silk rag. Rub the wood lightly, and IN
n direction only. Polishing the keys
with alcohol will keep them clean.
A piece of camphor placed inside the
instrument will ward off the attacks of
moths on the felt.

OUR CHILDREN'S CORNER
GAME OF LAWN BOWLS

r AVN BOWLS Is a game that can
be called with truth a fascinat-
Ing pastime, because it is a gen.
tie and skilful outdoor exercise which
a be INDUCED in by either sex. or
any age. from grandson to grandsire.
The game can be played anywhere that
there is grass, as the green needs no
preparation for it other than that given
to any ordinary garden lawn. No lawn
is too small for its operations, and the
more flower beds, trees. shrubs or
winding paths enter into the gardens
design, the more delightful the game
becomes.
No garden and no garden party in
England, in the country, Is complete
which does not include the basket of
biased bowls and the white Jack, from
which the game obtained it's old-time
title, Jack o. the green"
Lawn bowls may be played by two,
four or six, but in any case the number
of players is divided into opposing
sides. 1t is started by one of the players
throwing the jack, or white ball, to any
SPOT he pleases, within the limits of the
lawn. and then bowling his ball as neal
to the Jack as is possible to him. The
balls used are of heavy wood, but they
are not large, no larger than will be
comfortable in the hand. They are
biased on the inside edge, their
diameter through the back exceeding
that on the front; consequently, when
cast. they approach the jack on a
curve. The segment of this, and The
direction and force put into the ball,
are ne puzzle which only practise
car settle. The next opposing player
then bowls. md in turn to
gel nearer sill to the jack. and so on
until all ha9s bowed. L Is awful to
So bowl Us 10 knock out any especially
favorable bail uhich your opponent
ma nave landed near the Jack and
tic side wins which when al have
BOWED has the largest number of bowls
nearest 10 the jack Al this may sound
very simple, but SO It sounds to read
about putting a. golf" yet the worlds
testimony bellies the simplicity of 1t and
attests its fascination. A game that, like
lawn bowls. has held It. own through
ages, and been transplanted with graft
flying results to Canada should become
ever a more popular pastime over the
border line.
