A Trick Cana,

Jennie loved to spring new games on
her friends when they came to see
her. SO she eagerly awaited q little
crowd the other day, all members of
her class, who invited themselves up
after school. This time the new game
was called "it," and at" was a mys-
terry to all the guests but three. These
three were allowed to remain In the
room with Jennie, while the others
were sent into the next room.
In the game of sit" each one is call
ed In in turn and Is allowed to ask
questions, and as soon as one catches
on to at" she becomes one of the inner
circle, and the next u is called In.
"It' ts really the person who sits on
your left, but before "tt' is discovered
much fun is experienced.
All In the %playroom must sit in a cir
Gle and must not change their posi-
tons during the progress Of the game.
When the player Is called in he is told
to ask a question of whomsoever he
may please, and the person must an
swer correctly.
For example, SIS 1T whiteT'
AS everybody present is white, the
answer is necessarily Yes"
The questioner then asks any ques-
ton, such as as 1T thinP II the one
on the left of the q%uestioner is thin the
answer Is in the affirmative. The ques-
toner then asks another, do you also
think it is thin?" And if the one seat
ed on her left is stout she answers
"No." And thus the questioner is mys-
titled and must continue until he
guesses at"
at" should be announced as q trick
game.

yes, they are all away. That IS my grievance. I said I might pos

Of course 1 haven't been gone but three days, and of course they don't
get auto rides often, but still I think they might have been at home to

There, I've worked myself up spIendfdly and here they come. I'll
have to open the front door. but I won't say a word until they speak to
proach, but. by the way, I asked them how they enjoyed themselves. and
the short way I answered them when they asked me what kind Of a time
I'd had, showed them how I felt.
They all know I'm hurt and they're trying to be Is nice as pie to
me. They Just wanted to know what I'd like best for supper and l said

What an absurd idea. Someone tried to make me believe that I
didn't say I'd get home before tomorrow. Do they think II give up my
grievance that easily? l guess not.

GOOD news travels fast" and the
thousands Of bad back sufferers in

Many a lame, weak and aching back

Kidney Pills. Our citizens are tell

Here Is an example worth reading:
Patrick Ktlmurray. 1874 Broad
street, Perth Amboy, N. j., says:
"You may continue using my former
endorsement Of Doan's Kidney Pills
and I can say that I have had no
heed Of a kidney medicine for quite
awhile. In 1897 I began to suffer
from pains in my shoulders and
limbs and my back ached terribly. !
was in bad shape when I got Doan's
Kidney Pills, but they helped me
quickly and 1t was not long before
my aches and pains all disappeared.

Pills since that time and I do not

Tennis is increasing IN popularity.
Probably one reason for this is that
the girl who plays golf can seldom
dress the part attractfvely or retain
her trimness long upon the links If she
plays a tolerably good game. Tennis
toys are distinctly fetching. The smart
tennis gown may be made of one Of
the coarse linens that come in d doz-
en- natural shades. 1t may be of pique
or percale, of chambray, Of lawn or
even of pongee. 1t Is cut low In the
neck and finished with d round or q
sailor collar Of white or some contrast
ing material. The sleeves come to the
elbow. The gown may be a one piece
affair, but ordinarily it has q sep
arate blouse and skirt. The blouse is
generally cut on peasant lines. There
Is q patent arrangement by which a
gore is set under the arm that gives
plenty Of play to that member, The
skirt IS cut moderately short for con-
venience.
The gown Illustrated here was Of
pale blue linen trimmed with white.
The bodice was fastened at the left
with large buttons, which were con-
tinued on the panel on the front Of
the skirt. A sailor collar, closing in a
point In front, and turned back cuffs
finished the blouse. A white chip hat
trimmed with pIumes, a rather more
elaborate ehapeau than most tennis
girls choose, was worn with this frock.
The costume would be equally suitable
l for walking, boating, croquet and golf.
In fact, 1t is a good all round outdoor
dress.

The new stands to hold a meat plat
ter, which come in openwOrk silver,
in oval form, have silver feet to raise
the dish slightly from the table.
The stand divides In the middle and
can be adjusted to hold any platter.
One of the models has a small alcohol
lamp beneath the opening to keep the
meat hot.
While in solid silver such a stand Is
extremely costly, yet very good designs
can be found in plated ware. These
stands are highly useful, as they do
away with unsightly asbestos mats
and make SCARED tables impossible.

The Duckbift.

When English travellers brought
home from Australia descriptions Of
the duckbill no one believed them, but
the story WAS true all the same. 1t
has the body of an animal covered
with glossy hair, and 1t has the bill of
a duck. Its feet are made for swim
ming and ~burrowing. Although its
ears do not show, it can hear perfect
ly. Its voice resembles the growI of
a small puppy. When asleep it rolls
itself into a ball.

There was a large number In the group,
but only a portion car be seen In the

They assembled to do honor to the ma

THE WORLDS
SUGAR SUPPLY

Although the worlds visible supply
of sugar is more than half a million
tons greater than this time last year,
it is calculated by Willett & Gray
quoting LIGHT that the low prices due
to the excess production of beet will
greatly increase the consumption, just
as the high prices Of last year caused
a heavy decline in the consumption.
AS an indication of what low prices in
1911 may accomplish in consumption,
it is shown that in 19O4-O5 and 1905-O6
the total consumption of all Europe
and America jumped up Lis, 144 tons.
There is therefore every reason to ex-
pect a favorable reaction in the mar
ket within the current two years.
In the meantime LIGHTS estimate of
this years beets for all Europe is
raised to S,127,0OO tons, against $685.
900 tons last year, or an increase OF
1,9S9,O0O tons. From this enormous
increase of beet crops" Willett & Gray
