Just For the Boys and Girls
BOWLING WITH BUBBLES.
A Capital Game In Which Two Teams
Contest For Points.

Bubble blowing is certainly lots of
fun. but bubble bowling Is much more
exciting, says the Washington Star.
The game may be played on any
long, narrow table. which must be cov-
cred with an old wooden cloth or
shawl, and the cover must surely be
something that nobody minds having
get wet, because wet 1t will surely be-
come. 3
Goals must be marked In chalk at
both ends of the table. Each goal con-
sists Of two marks eight inches apart.
Any number can play this game-in
fact. the more the merrier-but there
must be an equal number of players
on each side. A captain must be
chosen for each team, and the names
must all be written on a slate or piece
of paper. Each player is provided
with a clay pipe, and there is one
bowl Of soapsuds to be used by all.
The teams gather at opposite ends
of the table, and the person standing
next to his captain blows n bubble,
moi too large, which he losses upon
the table. The captain as first bowler
stands ready to blow the bubble On its
course down through the opponents
goal. When the captain has had three
trials the captain on the other side
becomes bowler. and the one standing
next to him blows bubbles for him.
" men this captain retires the MEM
Der of the opposite party next to the
captain takes the bowler's place and Is
assisted by the one whose name Is
ne-t on the list. after him the player
text to the captain on the other side.
and so on until the last on the list
has his turn. when the captains then
become assistants and blow the bub-
bles. Each player has three trials.
The bubbles which break before the
bowler has started them are not count
ed. Every time G player sends a bub-
BILE through his opponents goal a point
is won and a mark is written opposite
his name. Every time he fails a cross
Is recorded. The game is twenty-five
points.
A prize may be given to the player
getting the most points and a BOBBY
prize to the one with the greatest
number Of crosses.

Weeks illustrated Story
AN AMATEUR BULLFIGHTER
By HERBERT MONTAGUE FISK

Bert Burnside regarded the little pile
of silver laid out upon the table before
him. There were two Mexican dollars,
an American coin Of the same demon
nation and double the value, two Mex
lean halves and some copper coins. His
board was paid until the end of the
week at the obscure hotel to which he
had removed when his funds gave out.
After the week was ended there was a
tramp of more than 1000 miles home.
and this must be his capital.
Bert had come down to old Mexico to
look up some mines in which his ia
ther was interested. 1t was his first
important commission, and he had been
proud indeed when he had perceived
the clever manner in which the mines
had been sailed. He had reported the
fact back home; then, still having plen-
ty of funds, he had remained on in the
quaint old country until he had met
the little knot of good fellows at the
Hotel Rio Grande.
That they feeced him of every cent
he possessed in revenge for his discov-
cry of the sailing of the mines was
something that Bert did not know. He
only knew that he had been so foolish
as to play cards with acquaintances of
a week and that it had served him right
to be stripped of all his possessions.
He knew better than to write asking
his father for assistance.
H. IiH xErifa IacCin pi0nPd tho
daughter of his fathers partner. and
confessed freely his foolishness. To
his father he wrote only that he would
not be home as soon as he anticipated.
In the long run the incident might
be to his advantage. Both his father
and Henry Picard were'of the opinion
that the young people should wait at
least FIVE years before being married.
II Bert should prove his ability to
take care of himself 1t might shorten
the period of probation
With a shrug of his shoulders he
dropped the coins back into his peck
ct and descended to the hotel lobby.
A new bill on the dingy wall attract
ed his attention. Several men were
gathered about 1t. discussing the an
nouncement In animated tones. There
had been a bullfght the previous sun
day at which a new matadore had
gained especial favor, and the bill an
nounced his retention for a second
Sunday.
Beneath the announcement that four
black bulls from Tayagua would be
fought to the death and that Corcita
Chico would receive the charge of the
bull kneeling came the lines:
"a fifth bull for the volunteers, with
$40 on his horns. will be turned into
the ring. The manager refuses to be
responsible for any injuries to anna
Tours"
Rather dangerous" he suggested to
one OF the b~ystanders. The Mexican
shrugged his shoulders.
Not so much as Is supposed, senior"
he denied. "The fifth bull he is what
you call-more polite"

SIMPLE EXPERIMENT.
Weighing a Letter With the Aid OF a
Broomstick.

Broomstick.
Did you ver know you could weigh
a letter with a broomstick? Letters
are of such q light weight that a deli
cate balance is needed. So this Will
be just the thing. The handle Of an
old broom about a foot long should be
put into a long jar or deep vase filled
with water. A weight of some Kind
should be attached to the lower end.
so that about three-fourths of the
broom handle is under the water. A
piece of cardboard. glued to the top.
will serve as a platform for the balance.
The last thing to do is to graduate
the weight-that Is. to mark OF a scale
on the end above the water. That can
be done by borrowing a half unc and
a one ounce weight and placing them
IN the balance. one at a time. IL the
broomstlck goes just below the ounce
mark then double postage Is neces-
sary. and IL the gauge is fairly accu-
rate the letter weigher viii serve for
ordinary purposes.

BEST CARE OF WET FURS.
They Should BE Kept Away From the
Heat-Drying Them.

A wet fur piece should be well shak-
en-, then hung in a cool room, prefer
ably where a free draft of air can en-
ter between the fibers. 1t should be
shaken from time to time to prevent
the hairs from sticking. but no heat
should be allowed near 1t.
When dry to the touch the fur
should be whipped lightly with a fine
wand and shaken again.
Hanging wet furs in front of a fire
to dry is a ruinous practice. Heat de-
prives fur Of its natural oil, and If
once lost it is impossible to restore the
article to its original condition.
