Seeking tho Future In the Crystal Ball.
 Before presenting them she illus. trates by gestures the use to be made of each. Holding the mirror or globe in front of her face she bites the ap- pie. then looks quickly around, as if expecting to see some one, and again holding up the mirror or globe !n one hand and the candle in the other. she takes a few steps backward When boy or young man enters by jumping over the light, which gives the ap- pearance of his having fallen from the sky, Halloween looks around, and the boy or man quickly disappears.
 All this time the girl stands trans fixed with her hands raised and all the fingers spread cit fin astonishment She receives the presents. which are given with many mods and gestures.
 The Old Witch Enters.
 As the maiden then takes up the apple and mirror or globe her hand is stayed by a witch with flowing hair. who has approached unperceived, car Tying under one arm broom and wearing on her head an ordinary hat with a piece of newspaper rolled up and pinned on to form peaked crown.
 The poor girl looks GnXiOusly around and discovers she has heen enchanted. for there are three girls instead of one. This effect is produced by two more lighted candles being placed on the floor on either side of the first candle. The candles are removed and the Old Year, an old man, instantly appears.
 Discovering him quickly, the girl runs forward to tell her sorrows and finds that 1t is only when alone that she is | enchanted, for when she attempts to point out her other selves they have | disappeared. Making many guesses, she looks here and there for them, but in vain. Then as the Old Year leaves she bids him sorrowful adieu.
 The Little New Year.
 Immediately little New Year enters, crowned with q paper star and wear. ing wings of paper. The young girl rushes to meet the New Year with hearty greeting She then tells him of her enChantment and kneels down, and the little New Year raises both hands above her head. then, kissing his hand to the maiden, departs.

 A damp sheet must be fastened up across the room or between the folding doors of the parlOr. First fasten the corners of the sheet, next the center of each of the four sides in order that the cloth may be perfectly smooth; then place q lighted candle on the floor about four or Ave feet from the cen ter of the curtain.

When almost across the cur. tain she meets Halloween, who ap- breaches from the opposite side, ar rayed fin a short dress, with wings made of newspaper folded fan fash lon and fastened on the shoulders In her hand she carries a cane with q silhouette of n cat or two or three stars and a crescent cut of stiff brown paper and pasted on the end.
