MERRI For Music Pupils. I want to give a little party to about ten little girls music pupils. Kindly give me some idea as to how to entertain : them; . some musical game and contest. Also what shall I serve?-. I enjoy your corner so much. L. G. I think the description of a musical party given below will assist you, and as the guests will be little people I am sure that nothing could please them more than to have ice cream and cake. , A MUSICAL, PARTY. This party was given for a class of young students about the age of 12. First they played musical "stage coach," after the same fashion as we all used to play it years ago, only each child was given a musical term and rose when his or her word was mentioned and turned around. The forfeits were redeemed by playing a piece upon the piano. Then they had a novel spelling match upon the piano. The hostess said the tone3 would spell words, any one who could tell the tones in let ters was to do so, writing down the words upon slips of paper. . This was, of course, invaluable as an ear test. The tone combinations were played very slowly and repeated several times. The following were the words spelled: Bag, ahe, abed, bad, abbe, ace,; add, dad, bed, bead, age, be, aged, beef, beg, ebb, added, fag, fed, fad, deaf, fade, egg, cage, faded dab. The prizes were candy boxes in the shape of musical instruments. There were ice cream and cookies for re freshments and to make fun the cook ies were cut in letters, only the first seven being used, and' the children, had to tell the signature in sharps or flats of the key represented by the" let tec, each. took. "What Would You Do?" I have been having a great trouble with my girl friends. They are near ly all "angry" at me just because they say every young man they get to go with as soon as they meet me they loose them. Now, I don't intend to do this at all. I attend high school and have my own boy friend. But still this girl friend of mine refuses now to even speak to me. I miss her friendship and have told her I would give up this young man to her, be cause I care more fbr a girl's friend ship than a boy's, but to. this she made no reply. : The young man says he never will go with her again and won't even speak to her because shetreats me in this manner. What would you do? II. E. II. ; Being too popular seems to bring its own troubles, which I am afraid you will have to settle for yourself. The best plan you can work is to get the hoys to defend you by saying you do not use any especial art to attract them but make them have such a good time that they can't help liking you, and perhaps you can win the pirls back. - Question From "Uninformed."

Was at tended by a doctor' who pronounced it as stone in the bladder and prescribed Llthia Water. I took Lithia Water and tablets for some time and received no relief from them. I stopped taking medicines for some time and having some of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root in tho house, I decided to try it and felt much relieved; while taking the sec ond bottle commenced to pass gravel, in all at least a half dozen or more and have not suffered . the slightest since and in all have taken one bottle and a half and feel very grateful to Swamp-Root.

Willie, the chicken don't know how to create a hard-shelled egg unless I it has some food with lime I . So chicken-raisers often other rorm ot lime. Let the chicken wander free and it finds its own food and behaves sensibly. Shut it up and feed stuff lacking lime and the eggs are soft-shelled. Let's step from chickens to human beings. Why is a child "backward" and why does a man or woman have nervous pros tration or brain-fag? There may be a variety of reasons'' but one thing is certain. If the food is deficient in Phosphate of Potash the gray matter in the nerve cen tres and brain cannot be rebuilt each day to make good the cells broken down by the activities of yesterday. Phosphate of Potash is the most important element Nature demands to uniti ' albumin and water to make gray matter. Grape-Nuts food is heavy in Phosphate of Potash in a digestible form.

"Cremation, although beautiful," he said, "lends itself to ribald jest in a way that sepulture doesn't. "Who can forbear a smile at the thought of that devoted young ma-1 tronj who, her front steps being co7 ered? with sleet, sprinkjed her first husband's ashes over them in order that her second husband might de scend in safety?" . Smiling himself, Mr. Pound re sumed: ','And who could forbear another smile at the thought , of the young widow on the blustery March morning who entered her drawing room to find that the wind had overturned the" vase which contained her husband's re mains? " 'Pshaw,' she said, 'now isn't it just like George to throw his ashes all over my new KIrmanshah rug!" Medical Genius. An old doctor, seeing a young one who was going along the street with half a dozen shabby-looking men and women, called him aside and asked: "Who are all those people, and where are you going with them?" "I will tell you in confidence," was the reply, "that I've hired, them to come and sit in my reception room. 1 expect a rich patient this morning, and I want to make an impression on him."

His mother got him ready for , bed one cold night, and to be sure he would be warm enough during the night she took extra precautions, re lates the Indianapolis News. After she had put on his little fuzzy paja mas she tucked him carefully in be tween the wool blankets. Then, to make doubly sure, she got a hot water bottle for him and the youngster was apparently as snug as could be, with only his little nose sticking out from beneath the covers. When his igother had finished the tucking-in job she turned down the light. Soon the entire family was in bed. But Harold is like most young sters. He loves his mother, and wishes lots of attention. So in his child mind he figured out a way to get her to his bed. "Mamma," he wailed, "I'm cold!" "Nonsense, son!" replied his moth-, er, and she never made a move to go to his rescue. The little boy tried the opposite. ' "Well, I'm too hot, then!" he yelled. Some Are So by Nature. A certain young man, who prided himself on a brusqueness that he mis took for wit, met an eminent, but touchy, sculptor at a studio supper. "So you're the chap," he said, on being introduced, "that makes mud heads?" "Not all of them," the sculptor re plied, quietly. Youth's Companion. ' Superficial Impression. "A detective is a mysterious per sonage." "Yes," replied Mrs. McGudley. "And one of the most mysterious things about detectives is that their arduous literary labors should leave them any time to detect." 1 t 1 WhW 11 the I Simature MM- W I US U1UI Thirty Years Wli UCr Li W y LiL2U Li W.
