endorsed by the children as being
good thing. A large circle is formed
by the players. with the blind man"
in tn center. Each person is given a
number, the numbers being in rota-
ton. The blind, man stands perfect
ly still in his position in the center
and does not move around. From this
place he calls out two numbers and
the persons thus designated must
change places, In doing SO the blind
man endeavors to catch one of them
Every little while the words "One
Hundred" are called by the leader and
every one must change places and in
this grand mixup some one must be

man must continue unril he has vic
tim. who then takes the place in the
center. This is fine outdoor game.

cuttinn Silhouette.

There is nothing new about cutting
profiles but 1t is always interesting
and sometimes we are apt to forget
the old things and are glad to be
reminded of them.
Darken the room. On little table
place lamp or lighted candle. Call
in one at time, seat them in chair
close to table so that the shadow of

paper pinned against the wall. With

First Newspaper.

The Acta Diurna (Acts of the Day),
instituted by Julius Caesar, comes
about as near being the first newspa-
per as anything we can find. There
was an official editor, and the gazette
was exhibited daily in public. 1t was
copj ID by scribes, who sold it to their
Gus liners. The Acta contained an
noun dement's or DEGREES by the gov
ernment, notices relating to the
courts, and other matters of public i'm
terest, such as birth. marriages and
deaths. II had wide circulation and
in many ways fulfilled the office of a
regular newspaper.

He who hath high forehead sure
ly will he have his eyes beneath it,
and Of a verify live an the days of

Thus relieved OF the burden, the
learned Punjahb salaamed again, and
slumber again fell upon his eyelids.--

Sofa pillow Shower.

The bride-elect was one of a club
of six. When she announced her en-
gagement the others planned a sofa
pillow shower. Each one selected a
pillow design, with colors that har-
monized. When all we're finished, the
bride was asked for a luncheon and
found cushion on her chair. With
each course the cushion was changed.
until all five had been presented,
there being Just five courses with this
end in view.
The pillow designs were all worked
on burlap in the new stitches which
are so effective and quickly done.
This is certainly a new idea in show
ers and a most acceptable one.
