sidered. Their quarters should not
only be attractive. but as comfortable
as possible
Much has been said on comforts and
eonveniences, such AZ a plentiful sup

pointed sewing basket an equally wen
equipped writing desk or table. q stock
OF various kinds Of pins and hatpins
and other useful toilet accessories for
the guest room. But one thing you
must remember which, Just at this sea-
son, a most important and too often
oFerIooked-a generous supply Of wa
tar IN the rooms where the guest must
use an old fashioned washstand

Who Am 10

This game q always q faycrfte, ana,
while not new, It may be made to
seem 30 by choosing new characters
each time Of playing.
The hostess prepares in advance as
many slips Of paper as there are guests
expected. writing upon each the name
Of some well known character In &c
tion or history on in contemporary life.
Upon the arrival Of her friends as she
greets them she pins one OF the bits
Of paper on the back OF each. The
wearers do not see them or know what
characters they are supposed to repre-
sent. but are expected to guess it from
the remarks Of the rest, who are care
fuI not to tell the name. For instance.
the ~Queen OF Hearts" may be comph-
mented upon her domestic talents and
her delicious pastry and be asked
whether her dishonest servant had re-
formed or been dismissed
Little Red Riding Hood" may be
condoled with on the death Of her
grandmother and warned Of the dan
ger Of making chance acquaintance on
the road
Henry VIII" might be rallied on
his fondess for the ladies and question
ed about divorces; Goliath" advised
70 stake a man Of his size" and not
bully a little fellow, and Columbus"
might be asked about his voyages and
discoveries.

No~si EvsnIna Party.


A family oe fun loving girls recently
gave an amusing entertainment Il
was called q nose and google party.
Each guest wore 4 false nose and gog-
gles. The noses were purchased or
made OF heavy cardboard covered with
channels and were not removed until
after refreshments were served
As the guests arrived each was given
4 card perforated with ribbon run
through IN order to wear the card
around the neck 20 that every one
could see Il
The cards had on one side a number
BY which each guest was known, on
the other side q list OF hgures-1. 2, 8
etc. las many figures as there were
guests with q space opposite each
figure for q name.
In the course Of the evening each
person guessed who the others were.
OF course, with intimate friends the
familiar voices revealed the personal
fly. In many cases II the voice was
disguised this was not easily done, and
much amusement and many absurd
g1esses were made.
As each guess was made the name
was placed opposite the number on the
card Of the guesser corresponding to
the number of the person whom he or
she was trying to identity. For In
stance, II some one thought be knew
No. be turned his card and wrote the
name opposite No. A, etc. II was voted
BY all who were present as q most
original and amusing way Of spending

BOXING
BEAUTIFUL TRICK BUT
IT FAILED TO WORK
Indian Introduces Potato Into Game
But Third Sacker Was
Not Wise.

The old yarn concerning Harry
I.egg. known in wigwam circles as
Pain-in-the- Stomach. has been re-
vived.
Legg was a full-blooded Indian
person who busted into professional
baseball back in the late SOS. He
performed infield chores for the De-
catur. ILL.,. team, but always cher
ished the hope of poisoning forth
as a catcher.
His chance to do backstopping
duty came during a game staged in
Lafayette. Ind. When Pain-in-the-
Stomach was told Of his assignment.
he gathered unto himself the first
baseman on the team-Lotz by
name-and held a long, whispered
conversation with him.
In due course of time the game
started with the Indian behind the
bat. The Lafayette team got a man
on first and then it was noticed that
Pain-in-the-T ummy extracted some
thing from the rear pocket of his
Jeans. But no one paid much atten-
ton to II at the moment as it was
figured he was pulling out plug OF
tobacco.
Well. the pitcher heaved the ball.
Pain-in-the-Stom caught ii and
then threw TO first, seemingly In an
attempt TO catch the runner nap
ping The throw was high and the
ball-or what seemed like the ball
scared toward right field.
The runner raced for second and
then hustled on toward third when
he saw that the right fielder hadn't
recovered the ball" But il wasn't
n baseball. Oscar. it was a potato
that n-in-the-Stomach had heav-
the hope that the runner would be
deceived and do just as he was do
ing. The aborigine held the ball In
his gloved hand until the runner
was half way TO third-and then he
hurled it at the third baseman.
A brilliant trick. you say! Sure,
il was-but Pain-in-the-Stoma
had failed to take the third baseman
into his confidence and the third
baseman was intently watching the
pursuit Of the potato. Therefore. in
stead of catching the ball in his
hands, and tagging out the runner
the third sacker much to his sur
prise and anguish, caught the ball
in the pit of his stomach.
The game paused quite suddenly
lille the man with the pain in the
s,omach pursued the man named
.'Pain-in -the-Stomach," and when
the man with the pain in the stom-
ach finished '1ecturing'' the man
named Pain-in-the-Stomach, the lat
ter decided that baseball was a bit
too strenuous for a tanned Indian
and he quit baseballing.

Wagner" continued Barney. lis
the most conscientious player l ever
knew. Last winter l went down to
Carnegie 10 visit him. We talked
in generalities for a while. and then
Honus said:
Say, Barney. / thirk it is only
fair TO you that my salary should be
reduced. / am not as good as | was.
I'm only a has-been now and I'm
cheating you when | draw down my
big salary every month
Barney didn't say so. but il is
known that three or four years ago
he signed a contract with Wagner
that called for a salary of $4,000 a
year and that the contract was un-
limited as 10 time. 1t really put il
up to Wagner that he could play for
the Pirates as long as he felt he was
able TO deliver the goods" and for
this he was TO get $4,000 a year.
What did you say to HOnus when
he asked you to cut his salary p"
quizzed the cub.
Il told him he must be suffering
| from indigestion. But Honus was
serious. He insisted that / cut his
salary. But 1 didn't-and l won't
AS long as Wagner plays with the
Pirates he'll get the salary he has
been getting for the past few years
the highest he has ever received.
J And Wagner can stay with my club
as long as he wants.
The grand old Dutchman has
made money for me in years gone
! by. He has helped TO win pennants
and helped To get me a share Of the
world series money. He has been
my real drawing card in years gone
J by, and there is no way that | can
show my gratefulness better than to
I pay him his big salary as long as
he wants TO play ball.
How much longer do you think
that will be?"
! II hope it will be 10 years longer"
answered Barney.
What do you expect Honus to do
in 1915? He's getting pretty old
now. He's A." said the cub.
Yes. that's right: he's A." an
swered Barney, and because he's
that old | don't expect he'll steal
more than 90 bases or hit above $50.
But you never can tell about that
fellow"
