Any man anticipating the dress
functions for this season would do
himself 3 good turn, should he call on
Beane 8, Cross, 23s Water street, and
inspect the Har, Schafner & Marx

tionally known suit and acknowledged
as correct in every detail, and as for
value all that it is possible to say, is,
that it is backed by the maker and a
new suit is TO be had if anything goes

"OId Soldier In Town

This is a very old English Christmas
seems to be. The players sit all
around the room.
One person comes around to each and
puts a number of questions, which
must be answered without saying Mr.
or Mrs, white or black, yes or no.
The game begins something like this:
An old soldier has come to town to
see what you have to give him. The
answer may be nothing" or IAN old
coat" "Is it worn at all?'' he asks.
1T is not" is the reply. what color
is ft?" Gray" ga light gray?" "a
very dark gray" "Are there any pock-
cts in the coat?'' ''Three." "Only

you anything else?" Nothing" mot

house over there?" 1.-THE Browns"
"Do they visit you?" Sometimes"
''Both Mr.. and Mrs. BROWNE" Usual

HERE'S NEW YIGOR FOR
OVERWORKED STOMACHS

b. L. Middleton, the popular druggis s
has been in the drug business long
enough to have his own opinion of the
best way of selling medicines. He says
the plan adopted by Mi-o-na, the great
dyspepsia remedy, is the fairest he has
ever heard of. He doesn't believe that
a medicine ought TO be paid for unless
it does the user some good. And MILO
ma is sold under a positive guarantee to
relieve dyspepsia or 10 refund the mon
ey. You simply leave so cents on de-
posit with b. l.. Middleton and il, after
you have used the box of Miro ma you
decide that it. has done you no good. all
you have 10 do is TO tell him so and he
will return your money.
Hundreds of people have been re-
lieved of stomach agonies by using this
remarkable remedy II is not simply a
food digester; 1t is medicine that puts
all of the digestive organs into normal
condition and gives ruddy, glowing,
vigorous health. a change for the bet
ter will be seen after the first doess OF
Mi-o-na, and its continued use will soon
give the power to eat anything at any
time and not suffer distress afterwards.

! Some Jolly Games For
! The Merry YuIe Party

EOR new and jolly game which
4 costs nothing to get up fill good
sized basket with words cut from
newspaper headlines. Each word
should be cut out in small square.
Players sit around large table and
each receives square of pasteboard
or a sheet of heavy paper. In the
middle of the board is placed the bas-
ket filed with words. There should
be couple of bottles of paste or much
lage besides.
Each player in turn is given a hat
pin which he plunges into the basket.
All words brought up on the hatpin
belong to the person jabbing. When
each player has jabbed six times in
turn the pins are laid aside and the
point now becomes to see who can
form the cleverest Christmas tele-
grams from the words jabbed up. AL
low fifteen minutes for working out
these phrases. The entertainer or some
one who does not enter into the game
decides which is cleverest Give a
this round.
A lively blindfold contest results
when guests are required to tie bun
dies on a Christmas tree bIindfolded.
The Christmas tree may be a very
small one arranged in bucket on the
table If no trimmed tree is at hand.
OF course the blind men start from a
point as far from the tree as possible.
Each bundle has a small box of bon
bons or even a popcorn ball half tucked
away at its heart. The bonbons be-
long to the player who is successful in
tying the package to the tree.
A toy race is always jolly too. This
is where wheel toys are pushed over a
certain course with umbrellas or where
mechanical toys are wound up and sent
trundling across the room at a given
signal. The person first to push his
wheel or toy over the course is winner,
and the mechanical toy which outdis-
tances its fellows also wins for its
owner a prize. Any toy which over
turns in the race is barred from hon.
ors.
Now, let all gather around the table
and distribute squares of paper or
pasteboard black on one side and white
on another, with pencils and scissors.
Ten minutes are allowed in which all
draw portraits (heads) of Santa Claus
on the white side of the paper or board.
Allow as much more time as is neces-
sary for each to cut out the portrait
he or she has been drawing.
Each player then signs the silhouette
with his initials, and the various out
line portraits thus formed are tackled
up black side out ON something white,
such as a square of muslin or a sheet
of white paper, where they will show
to best advantage. Some one, who
does not enter the game, is then called
on to say which is the cleverest, and
the guest whose work this judge pre-
fers wins prize. A candy box rep
resenting the Christmas saint makes a
good choice in prizes.

Where Circulation Counts

1t is circulation that starts the end
less chain. Nobody knows the circula-
ton value OF paper better than the
foreign advertiser. Sometimes il seems
that with many local merchants news
paper is newspaper. and they are sat
isfied if they have used printers ink
regardless of the amount of publicity
secured. Not SO with the foreign ad-
vertiser. He pays just what the adver-
Using is worth according to the circu-
lation and no more Publishers Month
ly.
For example no customer is willing
to pay for two suits and get only one.
Publicity is merchandise, Yet some ad
vertisers make no discrimination. They
expect to get space in paper with Loo
circulation at the same price as they gel
it in paper with only 500. II

Observation-Disclosures
Indoor Fun For the Riddles
~ ~ - >


During the holiday school vacation
it is difficult to keep the youngsters
out of mischief and yet keep them
amused. This is especially true in the
evening, when they cannot play out
of doors. A suggested solution of the
problem may be found in the follow
ing games:
Give each child bowl of popcorn
and a needle and thread. At signal
all begin stringing the corn. The one
stringing the most in given length
of time is awarded prize.
Give children pencils. and paper and
then read a paragraph from a book
backward. Read each word slowly
and have the children write them
down as you read them. When you
have finished have the children begin
at the last word they have taken down
and write the paragraph forward. The
youngster whose paragraph shows the
punctuations placed nearest to the way
they are printed in the book gets the
book as prize.
Place a row of plates on the floor
along one side of the room. Have a
plate for each child and let each plate
bold an orange, an apple and twenty
pieces of candy. An equal number of
empty plates should be placed on the
opposite side of the room. Arm each
Of the youngsters with teaspoon and
at a given signal let them transfer the
contents of the filed plates to the
empty plates. Only one object can be
carried at time, and if it is dropped
the carrier must return it to the plate
and start over again. A prize may be
given to the contestant who fills his
plate first.

Games For Christmas Aft.
ernOOn


Games fill in nicely the time "be-
tween the dark and the daylight on
Christmas afternoon. A "holly hunt
demands holly leaves cut out of green
paper and placed about the house in
plain sight. but in unusual places.
Each child goes a-hunting the leaves
with q basket, and the one who finds
the largest number receives prize.
For cranberry race each couple has
two bowls. one partly filed with
cranberries. Each person. using the
left hand, tries to see how many ber-
ries he can move from one bowl to
the other with tiny spoon.
Envelopes filed with cut-up pictures
of Christmas scenes pasted on card
board and passed one to each person
give quiet>fun. The contest is putting
the puzzles together and seeing who
can do it quickest.
A variation of the familiar donkey
game is played as follows:
A large tree is drawn on paper and
fastened on the wall. Pictures of
Christmas gifts cut from advertise
ments and catalogues are distributed
among the guests. Each is blindfold-
ed in turn and tries to fasten the gift
on the branches of the tree.
Some inexpensive prizes for Christ
mas contests are blotters. decorated
with holly in water colors or oil. and
butterfly needlebooks. Dainty bonbon
boxes may be made of water color pa
per or of cardboard covered with
Grape paper. These filed with. home
made candy are always acceptable.

each player is given a certain stock
ing, which he or she labors to fill, re-
ceiving no assistance from any one
else. A certain number of apples. ac-
cording to size. is agreed on for each
stocking before the fun begins.
The player who is first of the six
to fill his or hers is winner of that par
dcular round and is entitled to draw
for the prize, the unsuccessful five be-
ing barred.
When six have raced another half
dozen take their places, and so on.
