TRICK WITH A BUTToNH0LE
Performed With Small Stick Having
Loop Attached-Directions and

This trick is performed with small
stick having loop attached that is
too small for the stick to pass
through, writes Charles Graham in
Popular Mechanics.
Spread out the string and place 1t
each side of the buttonhole, then
draw the cloth around the hole
through the string until 1t Is far
enough to pass the stick through the
hole. Pull back the cloth and you
have the string looped in the hole

Soap Bubbles.

II your father happens to be
smoking when you are blowing soap
bubbles, get him to blow some bub-
bles for you. He just fills his mouth
with smoke and then blows an ordi-
nary bubble with the clay pipe. The
bubble will generally grow very large,
and will, of course, be filled with
smoke. Floating in the sunshine,
some of these present very beauti-
full appearance.
If you want to make very large
bubble, first cover your hands we'll
with soapsuds. and then place them
together in the shape Of cup, leav-
ing a small opening at the bottom.
Then hold your hands about a foot
from your mouth and blow into them.
The bubbles obtained in this way are
so large than they Immediately burst
on touching the floor.

AMUSING FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
Game OF "Joneses' Vacation" VIII Fur
nisn Pleasure for Boys and
Girls of Any Age.

DID you ever give a party and find
1t hard to amuse the boys and girls
after they arrived? 1t is not pleas
ant experience, and it is always we'll
to know of game that will make the
young folks Timber up"
One that children of any age will
enjoy and which takes little prepara-
ton is the Joneses' Vacation. One of
the girls is selected as Mrs. Jones and
one of the boys as Mr.. Jones. You
have ready suit case and at given
signal Mr.. and Mrs. Jones must un-
lock 1t and put on the things they
md inside. 1t is good idea to have
nat. long coat, veil, scarf, gloves
and pocketbook for Mrs. Jones and
coat. hat. collar Qarge one), neck
tie and gloves for Mr.. Jones. They
must dress in these as quickly as pos
sible. for some one is timing them,
and then they must lock the suit case
and rush off with it to the train. That
must be the farthest point you can Sc.
lect-lsually the front door. After
they have hit the front door good
hard thump they must rush back
again. take off the things and pack
them again. And If they don't pack
carefully they will find themselves in
trouble, for they must lock and strap
the suit case again. Now it is the turn
of another couple to be Mr.. and Mrs.
Jones. and when they all have tried
the couple who made the trip in the
shortest time are judged the winners.
1t Is we'll to use coats and hats that
you do not need to treat carefully, for
naturally they are apt to get rumpled
in the excitement of the game. Don't
forget the collar. in which you should
put large stud, for 1t always Is in
teresting to see anyone in a hurry
struggle with collar button.

MAKING INDIAN PLAY SUITS
Little Boys and Girls Can Rig Them.
selves Up In Novel Way by
Using Old Newspapers.

The boy who wants to change him.
self into a little Indian may easily
make an Indian play suit. For head
dress cut deep fringe from newspa-
pers. Pin it around the head and pin
long piece Of the fringe to fall down
the back to look like feathers. Cut
more fringe and pin down the sides
fringe, not very long, to pin around
the ankles over the tops of low shoes
to look like moccasins.
The little girl who wants to be
squaw may make her suit in this way:
First, make the skirt. Paste two large
newspaper sheets together so that
the short side of one newspaper laps
over to the short side of the other
sheet of paper Fold this long piece
Of paper just formed SO that the long
top edge reaches nearly down to the
long lower edge. Cut the lower edge
go that 1t is formed into fringe. The
skirt is then finished Slip a piece of
tape inside the skirt where the paper
Is folded, and tie 1t at the back to
keep the skirt In place. The Indian
sack Is made in this way. Place
double sheet of newspaper in front of
you so that the long double edge of
the paper is at the top. Fold the
short edge Of the paper on one side
over onto the other short edge. From
the upper left hand corner of this
folded paper cut out double square
of paper which is about four inches
each way. All Of the edges except
the top edge and the folded edge of
the paper should be slashed to form
fringe. Open cut your paper and put
1t on as sack by putting your head
through the square hole in the top of
the paper. The fringe will be down
the sides of the sack and on the
bottom of the little coat.

the middle of the road. Crossing post
office square and starting up the State
street hill, the horse turned to the left
taking the sidewalk in front of the Ii

turned and Capt. Saunders thrown out,
escaping without serious injury. The
horse with the overturned pung continued
up the sidewalk past the courthouse, and
near the A. M. Hopkins house plunged
down the steep bank toward the road,
turning a somersault and landing on his

and harness, no damage was done.

Organization Perfected at Meeting
Here Saturday.
At meeting of the grange fair COM
mittee in Ellsworth Saturday, the Han
cock County grange fair association was
regularly incorporated, on the plan pre-
viously outlined in THE AMERICAN. The
articles of incorporation were drawn up
by Harry l.. Crabtree, attorney for the
association.
The capital stock is $4,000, divided
into 5000 shares of q each. 1t is hoped to
distribute the stock widely among
grangers, no others being allowed to hold
stock, and the individual holdings being
limited to fifty shares. 1t was with this
object that the price of shares was made
so small. Quite bit of the stock has al
ready been subscribed for.
Nearly all the members of the commit
tee were present at the meeting Saturday.
Capt. o. w. Foss, of Hancock, was chair
man, and Roy c. Haines, of Ellsworth,
secretary. The articles of association
and bylaws having been adopted, the
following officers were elected:
o. w. Foss, Hancock, president; j. E.
Gross, Orland, vice. president; Roy &.
Haines, Ellsworth, secretary clerk; Hol-
lis c. Austin, Lamoine, treasurer; o. W.
Foss, Hancock; ID. j. Hall, Eden; F. A..
Orcutt, Ellsworth; George E. Davis, Els
worth Falls; j. E. Gross, Orland; Daniel
Young, Mariaville; Hollis G. Austin, La
moine; Roy G. Haines, Ellsworth, direc-
tors. Three more directors are yet to be
chosen.
1t is the desire of the association to
purchase Wyman park for fair ground,
but satisfactory arrangements have not
yet been made with the Hancock County
fair association, that owns the park. 1t
is understood the North Ellsworth
farmers club contemplates extending an
invitation to the association to hold its
first fair on its grounds at North Els
worth.
