AFTER THE FLOOD.

From the Milwaukee Journal.
Paris is again gay, we are told in the
cable dispatches. Paris doesn't p"o-
pose to lose its reputation or diminish
its dividends even if its capital was
forced to carry more than it could
float.
From the Providence Evening Bulletin.
The affection which the world feels
for the beautiful and charming city OF
Paris is finding expression. and it will
help to bring the French capital even
nearer to the hearts of those who are
given to the delights of foreign travel.
From the st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Paris is delighted to see the flood s
departure and will be careful not to
say au revoir.
From the Birmingham Age-Herald.
Only the labels will be damaged in
the wine cellars Of Paris.
From the ST. Paul Dispatch.
1t will require lot of time and mon
ey to cleanse Paris after the flood, but
a thorough cleansing will not hurt
Paris much.
From the Omaha Bee.
The real extent of the Paris flood dis
aster will only be appreciated when
the shower Of American tourists gold
ed fullness next summer.

MAKING HISTORIES.
An Interesting Game For . Party or .
Stormy Afternoon.

Stormy Afternoon.
Histories or biographies. which lat
ter is really a better name, are most
interesting to make and have been
tried most successfully at grownup
affairs"
two Of old magazines illustrated ones),
half a dozen pairs Of shears, couple
of paste pots and the histories"
These latter should be prepared ahead
of time, but are easy to make. Get
plain sheets Of white paper. about
note paper size, allow about ten or 4
dozen to each book and fasten the
sheets together with clips. On the
front sheets of each write, "An Illus
trated Life Of Margie Blank. by Tom
ME Jones'" The names, of course. are
left blank, the hostess simply writing
the name of one guest or child on each
book. The hostess distributes the little
books. Those Of the girls are given to
the boys. and vice versa. The person
who prepares the history writes his
name on. the blank left for it.
On each page of the blank history
there is caption or heading-"At the
Age Of Three How He Looked
When He Was Six" His First Love-"
Future Occupation" Greatest Ambi-
tion." Final Career" and any others
along the same line that may suggest
themselves.
The idea is to cut out illustrations
from the magazines and paste them on
the pages signified to carry out the
idea suggested. The pictures may be
wise, funny or semiserious, just as the
historian desires.
! Simply dump the pile of magazines
in the center Of the table, give each
child blank history and let them go
to work.
The advertisements Of the magazines
are rich in suggestion. Some Of the ia
nous Observation-Disclosures Soap, Some
body's Paint-will furnish abundant IL
lnsrratjons for the child with a sense
of humor and an eye for the ludicrous.
When the histories have been COM
pleted and each page is properly filed
for more than one illustration may
be put upon a page-the little books
should be exchanged and returned to
their owners.
And what fun they will have seeing
themselves as others see them

He Likes All Of Them.
Up To this time none of these men
has announced himself as candidate
for the office. but it is understood that
the governor regards all of them as
good men and available for the places.
The story that Governor Marshall is
mixing in the selection of the state
ticket this year. has caused a good
deal of comment, and some of the par
ty workers are saying that he has no
business mixing in the nominations.
They declare that it is up To the party
to make the nominations. and that the
Governor ought not to try to control
the selections. 1t may be that the
governor has started something" in
allowing the information to go out that
he looks favorably on these men as
candidates.
