Some rainy day when you are shut
up in the house try what is called the
thread game.
The thread used is a piece Of red
worsted OF cotton, twelve or fourteen
inches long. the ends fastened together
with az small knot as possible. Then
saturate It with water, place It on a
damp slate. and with pencil you can
push the moist thread into all sorts OF
forms, and make pictures Of learss,
fruits, flowers. stars, furniture, and so
forth.
For instance, place the wet thread
on the slate SO that It forms a circle:
then II you push the top Of the circle
In toward the middle. you have a
heartshaDed cooky. II you push the
top down a little farther toward the
middle, you viii have bean, and BY
pushing the lower half OF the circle Nd
ward to the middle, paDa's eyeglasses
win appear. Then by pushing IN the
right and left sides similarly, you get
q pretty four-petaIed flower.
There Is no end to the figures thus
made. for the slightest push Of the
pencil changes the shape, and we have
a soldier cap, q Christmas stocking. a
knife, fork OF spoon. As you grow
more skllful and observe more closely
the outline OF objects about you, yon
may be able to make a thread picture
Of your dog, or the kitty IS she sits on
the rug.-Yorth's Companion.

Cairo this year on account Of street
improvements amount to S111,645,46,
besides sums paid out for improve

which will swell the sum to about
$150,000. While considerable money
il paid out in Cairo on account OF
