with the booty. The number of points
in ones score is represented by the
number of nuts on the back of the
hand when the runner completes the
tour of the room.
Drawing a hand is another good
contest, and it would also be amusing
to have the guests name as many ia
nous anecdotes connected with the hu-
man hand as can be recalled at the
time and written down.
Or the hostess may prepare in ad-
vance a series of puzzle questions to
be answered by her guests. Such ques-
lions as the following will convey an
idea of what questions are meant:
What famous lady had great diff
Guilty in washing her hands? Lady
Macbeth.
What nursery hero is suggested by
part of the hand? Tom Thumb.
What name is frequently bestowed
upon the forefnger? Index.
What delicacy is suggested by the
human hand? Lady fingers.
1t would be amusing to have index
fingers with signs tackled up in all the
rooms and corridors to which guests
have access during the party-thus

''This Way to the Lemonade Bowl
etc.
cles relating to the hands. Such ar
ticles as gloves, handkerchiefs, thin
bles, ETC., are suggested.

CHRISTMAS
CANES
AND SPORTS
Guessing Hands"

A VERY original sociable that is
"A especially good when jolly crowds
are assembled for Christmas fes-
tiyities is an all hands function. The
invitations are written on cards shap-
ed like an outstretched hand. and ''all
hands, are invited to join in the fun
to follow.
OF course there Is a guessing game
where hands are the puzzle subjects.
First the young men guess the girls
hands, which are thrust through holes
in a curtain or held above a screen,
and afterward the maidens must say
which hand belongs to which man.
There should be left handed game,
where each man or girl must write a
copy" using the left instead of the
right hand, and the prize might be an
autograph guest book.
Then see which of each sex can take
the biggest handful of nuts from a
basket of these goodies passed to all.
Most nuts grabbed win the prize, but
there must be separate awards for the
girls and the men.
Or have each guest plunge his OF
her hand into a basket of nuts and,
taking up as many as possible on the
back of the hand, run around the room

YuIe Loo and Ioxous ReveI.

The still observed custom of Merrie
England Of bringing in the Yule log
with much ceremony and Joyous revel
for both yonge and olde' may be very
charmingly adapted to the uses Of a
Christmas eve party. 1t is not even
necessary that the house possess one
of the mighty flreplaces of old English
days. for the log in this case is figura-
tive rather than actual.
1t is constructed of cardboard or
tight wood and is hollow. with a con-
venient door through which the gifts
have been put inside before the cere-
mony of bringing it in is commenced.
There are many quaint though simple
festivities that may be enacted. and
they are always intensely amusing to
the children.

cause for complaint or dissatisfaction
could possibly arise from anyone. These
druggists say-"Buy bottle of this rem

your money, just the same as we do with
Schiffmann's famous Asthmador, if it

unlucky one who has Tom die in his

Washington. Jan. 5.-Business CON

be generally reassuring" By the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States in report made public here.
The European war is acknowledged,
however, to have had widespread
and depressing effect on industrial
and. commercial conditions.
The report, prepared by the cham
bers statisticians and standard COM
mittee, says:
'iFuture delivery goods purchased
are smaller and collections uniformly
poor, but lately marked change has
been noted in a lessening difficulty
in obtaining bank loans and in erasilg
of interest rates. Conditions in the
South. while slowly improving. still
present a serious problem"
Crops in general the report adds,
have been good, but the cattle indus
try is confronted by serious handi-
cap in difficulty in obtaining loans
on cattle, and by the foot and mouth
disease quarantine. The sheep and
wool industry is excellent, While MIN
ing conditions are stated as generally
poor.
Many idle factories are reported as
preparing to resume operations and
employees are being taken on where
decreased forces have been working.
Lack Of building, however. has caus
ed many lumber mills to close and
