Changes Of the Moon.

We can tell by looking at the moon
whether she is waxing or waning. If
she is waxing the Illuminated edge is
to our right hand; if she is waning it
is to our left hand. The reason Of
this is easily seen if we pass ball
round the head in room lit by a
lamp or single window. If the ball
is made to circle with clock hands the
dark side will travel foremost and
will lie to the right hand. while the
ball recedes from the light During
this part Of it's course the ball will ap-
pear more and more Illuminated as it
moves. When the ball approaches the
light the bright side will travel fore
most and will lie to the right hand.
If we reverse the direction Of the ball
the phases will succeed ore another rs
they do in the moon. This proves
that the moon rotates opposite to the
direction of clock hands.

Fairy Furs.

On the hills of the Harz, in Ger
many, amid which nestles many a
pretty little village, there are num-
Der of beautiful frs, sometimes called
holy or fairy frs. In most years the
trees yield an abundance of pretty
cones, which are wrought into orna-
ments by the villagers. There is a
story that one day the wife of poor
sick man went out seeking these cones
to get little money for her need by
selling a few. She met a little man
with a long white beard. who asked
her questions and told her where to
go for the best cones. When she
reached the place pointed out such a
shower of cones came down from the
frs that she was quite frightened and
began to run away But some had
fallen into her basket, and more came
down afterward. till the basket be-
came so heavy she could hardly carry
1t. She found the reason was that the
cones were all silver. Next day she
met the little man, who told her that
he was a fairy king, and he also gave
her some herbs which made her hus-
band well.

The Missouri River in 1854.

Inasmuch as 1t has an important
bearing upon the cheapness of emf
grafton, the fact may be mentioned
here that we were agreeable disap-
pointed at the amount of business,
and business facilities, upon the Mis-
souri,, say C. B. Boynton and T. B.
Mason, in their reports Of journey
through Kansas in 1854 The number
of steamboats, on the river is greater,
and they are larger and better provid-
ed, in every respect, than we had sup
posed would be found at this season
of the year, while the amount OF
freight and number of passengers also
exceeded our expectations. 1t shows a
large population and business upon
the upper Missouri, which fact is we'll
illustrated by another. Weston, a.
place of some four thousand inhabi-
tants, is, by the river, SOC miles from
ST. Louis; and Platte county, of which
this is the principal commercial town,
has been settled only Is years, and
now contains 10000.

Game of Pillow Climbing.

In the middle of the floor scatter

ask who among your guests will vol
unteer to walk OVER the floor between
the various articles. Then blindfold
her and let her make her way over the
same ground, depending on her mem
DRY to guide her steps, trying not to
touch the articles. While she is blind
folded some one quietly removes the
articles, leaving the floor clear. 1t is

the volunteer carefully lifting her feet
to avoid touching the objects she fan
cies are lying on the floor.
