Game of Bean BAD.

Two captains are chosen, who select
an equal number of players for theii
sides. The sides stand so that they
are in two lines facing each other.
Each captain stands on the right hand
end of his line. BY this arrangement
the captains are then diagonally OPP
posite. Each captain throws bean
bag to the player opposite. These
players throw the bags across to thu
players second In line. These second
PLAYERS throw the bags back to the OPP
posite side. but to the players next t.
those who had the bags last. This
plan is continued down both lines, Sc
that every one has turn tn throw
and to catch each bag. The bags re
turn in the same way. Playing with
the two bags makes the game very in
teres,ing. especially since the bags
cross in al,oat the middle of the line
When Il player misses Il catch OF
throws to the wrong person he must
Join the line ut the other side. After
each bag has been up and down the
line twice the game Is ended. The
side having the most players wins tn,
game. When the players Of one side
are fewer than those Of the other th,
end player Of the short side throws
the bag to each Of the extra players
on the long side before 1t starts back
down the line.

STORY OF THE
SQUIRREL.

Who does not know these merry IN
habitants of our woods? Every one OF
us has taken pleasure in watching
their reckless racing. Suddenly the
little creature appears before us, sits
in the middle of the narrow path and
eyes US suspiciously. 1t does not just
know what to take us for. Are we
friends or foes: Then suddenly the
thought strikes him that ii Is best to
be on the safe side and take every
strange being for an enemy until he
has proved himself friend.
Suspicion and shyness win the bat
tie IN his mind. With u couple OF
leaps he has reached the nearest tree.
Quick as q fash he runs up the trunk.
and before we realize what Is hap
pening he is sitting high up on the top
| Of the tree.
If we approach the tree and strike
the trunk two or three blows with the
hand he runs out along Il bough. and
from the tip of 1t with quick jump
he reaches bough Of the next tree,
etc, through the woods. He never
grows tired, and if we take the bother
TO follow him for awhile we will soon
see the uselessness of our undertaking.
We can never catch the little jumper.
III we wish to catch the squirrel ana
tame him we must find young one.
These are not so clever as the oid
ones. They like to stay on the ground
more, instead of in the air, ana play
merry games with one another. Any
one who has ever seen young SOUR
re!s playing together or with their eloI
crs can understand why some people
call SQUIRRELS the little monkeys OF our
woods. 4 young squirrel is easily
tanned, but the fortunate owner Win
soon notice that even possession OF Il
squirrel has it's unpleasant side. Ii Il

worst of all. he cannot give up gnaw'

he belongs TO the rodents, the gnawing
Features. His front teeth are long
and ciiscl-like, and with them he
gnaWS all the furniture.
The squirrels teeth are so sharl'
that with their help he can open nuts.
and ii is pretty sight when the iittl"
squirrel. sitting on his hind feet. holds
the nuts to his mouth with his fore
feet. Besides nuts. lie likes eggs. too
and takes them from their. nest.
Besides men, squirrels have many
other enemies. eats and wild animals

But the worst enemy of all is win

snow comes while he is eating the pro
visions in one storehouse the Other
StorehouscS are sometimes so buried

thaw comes to his relief, he must
starve. and sooner or later this is the
end of most squirrels.
