Entertains the Little Ones.

4 Mrs. Clarence Ell. Mackay, original in
many things, is never more so than
when getting up entertainments for
children. Just give her chance to
bend her keen wits on amusement for
the little ones and her inventive facul-
Tlty Is on edge Immediately. One of her
newest forms Of juvenile diversion is
the royal taper tea" Her youthful
guests sit at tables. A beautiful big
cake is carried In and placed In the
tables center. The cake is lighted with
tiny tapers. one for each child in the
company. The cake may be baked III
the form of star and should contain
coin and a ring. All the tapers are
stuck securely in the icing that edges
the cake. Mrs. Mackay cuts the cake
and gives each child a slice. The
guest whose slice contains the coin, II
boy, should be acclaimed king. and
she who gets the ring is queen. Fol-
lowing an old custom, the king Is lift
ed on the shoulders of four boys up to
the ceiling, where he makes sign to
keep away the mischieyous spirits.
Now the fun of the affair begins. The
king and queen mount dais, and all
the other children have to pay homage
to them-bow, courtesy and pay pretty
compliments. Each subject in turn
has to entertain his monarchs In some
way-must dance, sing, jump. hop on
one foot or do some other stunt.

The Ace of the Earth.

Prof Jolly of Dublin, calculated
the age of our planet from the amour:
of salt In the sea. Sea water was
originally fresh, of we are to believe
the teachings of geology. 1t became
salt by the rivers carrying down
sodium into it. The professor esti
mates the amount carried dowr
by all the rivers in one year to be
about 160,000,oo0 tons, and that the
amount of sodium contained in al
the oceans is 90,000,O00 times as
much. Therefore, by this estimate
which is, Of course, largely a guess
IL has taken 10,00oo0o years for the
oceans to reach their present degree

Lessons In "NobIesss obIise."

Lessons In "NobIesss Cbiige.'
Among the hardest lessons younger
| people have to learn Is the one that
teaches ''noblesse oblige," or. to put 1t
n phrase, nobility of mind and
strength of character bring obligations
| toward others.
| A child wants to do what 1t likes to
do. 1t does not think 1t is in the least
necessary to consider what anybody
| else likes or dislikes. Politeness de-
mands and politeness means the treat
ing Of everybody just as one would
wish to be treated under similar cir
cumstances.
So here Is the Golden Rule, truly and
without disguise. Unfortunately it Is
not followed largely In this selfish
world, but Ii young people We're taught
oftener that they owe certain dusy
to themselves whereby they are most
certainly fulfilling their duty to others
It would be pleasanter to pass along
the paths of social life.
Duty to oneself means always
proper duty to those one comes In con-
tact with. 1t Is due to the growing
boy and girl to teach them that by their
actions toward host and hostess by
just SO much is credit reflected upon
themselves and also upon their parents.
Social duties are not always pleasant.
Sometimes they mean meeting those
whom we heartily dislike under the
roof Of mutual friend. Then comes
the test of breeding, of recognizing
the obligations imposed by those laws
of society we call etiquette, and by
these the boy and girl are judged II
self is allowed to step too prominently
to the front 1T means lack Of politeness
that tends to place hostess In an EN-.
barrassing position.
Was 1t not the 'iron man." the great
Bismarck, who said, IF you must de-
clare war, do 1t politelyT Noblesse
oblige.
