FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
Th Ehophord and the Wolf li Oood
Outdoor Gamo.
Tho children stand in n long line,
one behind tho other, holding each
other's dress or cont. Tho one
at tho head of the line represents
tho Bhcphcrd. His little followers
ere, the lambs. One player stands
apart from them, and he is the wol".
He prowls stealthily around the
flock, and tho shepherd calls out,
"Who goes around my house this
dark night?"
The other answers, "I am the
wolf."
The shepherd says, "I beg of you
not to hurt my lambs."
' The wolf then says, "I only wish
for one, and I mean to have this lit
tle lamb." And he jumps at the
last player in the lino. The shep
herd swings around to save his pet
lamb, followed, of course, by the
others. The wolf is sly and pre
tends to turn aside, only watching
his opportunity to grab. When he
catches the lamb she must try to
slip away, and if she succeeds she in
turn Incomes shepherd. The wolf
must then pay a forfeit and relin
quish his place to the last lamb in
line, taking his place.
Spanish Tag.
Spanish children play a kind of
tag which they might have taken
from some fairy game book if such
a thing existed. One child, chosen
by lot, s the moon and must keep
within the shadow. Th'1 others are
the morning stars and are safe only
in lighted spaces. The game is for
the morning stars to run into the
shadow, daring the moon, who, if
successful in catching one. becomes
in turn a morning star and passes
out into the light. This, of course,
leaves the one caught to act the
part of the moon. As the morning
stars run in and out of the moon's
domain they sing over and over:
O the moon and the morning stars,
O the moon and the morning stars,
Who dares to tread O,
Within the shadow?

Directions For Upholstering an Old
Can Seated Chair.
When the cano seat of a chair is
broken it may be made as good as
new by upholstering it at homo.
After removing tho superfluous bits
of cano cover the space with a mat
ting formed of three inch wide can
vas belting, woven together. Tack
it temporarily in place. After plac
ing over this some coarse muslin
draw both smooth and secure at the
edge with twine, making use of tho
perforations.' Heraove the tacks,
turn the raw edge over toward the
center and baste it down. Arrange
the curled hair and wool or what
ever you propose to use for stuffing
and keep it in position by basting
over it a piece of muslin. Then
carefully fit the rip, pin it in dif
ferent places until you are certain
it is in perfect shape and tack it
permanently, following, of course,
the tracing made for the cane. Cov
er the edge with galloon to match
the rip, using tiny ornamental tacks.
Freckle Lotion.
A good freckle lotion may be
made as follows: Take the juice of
one lemon (strained), one-half an
ounce of pure vinegar, one ounce of
alcohol, ten drops of oil of cedar,
i en drops of lavender, five ounces of
rosewater. Iix the lemon juice and
vinegar together, add the alcohol,
in which the oils have been dis
solved. Pour into an eight ounce
bottle and fill up with rosewater.
l!ul) this lotion on the face at night
before going to bed and wash oil" in
the morning with warm water, fol
lowed by cold.
Tomato Catchup.
l'eel and cut up a bushel of ripe,
sound tomatoes. Put them in a
porcelain lined kettle over the tire
and boil until soft, then press
through a sieve to take out the
seed. Add a gallon of good cider
vinegar, three cups of salt, two
ounces of whole cloves, cayenne to
season well, two tablespoonsful of
black pepper, five cloves of garlic,
skinned and crushed, or an onion
grated if garlic is disliked. Boil
gently for three hours or until boil
ed down one-half, and then seal up
in bottles.
Hop Yeast.
Boil two medium potatoes and
ma-h. Use water to scald three
tahlesoonsful of ilour. Boil two
tablespoonsful of dry hops in two
cups of water and strain. Mix with
otato and flour two tablespoonsful
of salt, two tablespoonsful of sugar.
Let it stand until cool. Soak one
cake of yeast in half a cup of water
and mix all together. Seal in fruit
jar and keep in a cool place. Three
fourths of a cup of yeast will make
four medium sized loaves of bread.
Olive Oil on Bruises.
In the treatment of bruises,
where there is extensive discolora
tion of the skin, if olive oil is ap
plied freely Without rubbing the
discoloration will quickly disappear.
Absorbent cotton may be soaked in
the oil and applied. If the skin is
broken a little boracic acid should
be applied over the abrasion. A
black eye thus treated can be ren
dered normal in a few hours, es
pecially if the oil be applied warm.
Dressing For the Hair.
A very pleasant dressing for the
hair, which renders it soft and
gloasy, is made thus: Dissolve half
an ouDoe of the best white wax in
seven ounces of almond oil. When
nearly cold add any perfume that is
preferred, such as twelve drops of
oil of cloves, ten drops of essence
of almonds and twenty drops of es
sence of lemon.
Hemming Napkins,
Every one knows how hard it is to
turn a narrow and perfectly even
hem on a table napkin. Put the
hemmer attachment on the sewing
machine, but do not use thread.
Just run the napkins through the
hemmer without sewing them and
they are creased as narrow as de
sired, and they are all ready for
hand sewing.
Kitchen Hints.
A tcaspoonful of strong coffee
added to chocolate at the last mo
ment will give it a delicious flavor.
In making a plain fruit cake if the
raisins and currants are warmed in
the oven before mixing them in
they will not sink to the bottom in
"that distressing way."
Toilet 8oap Jelly.
A soap jelly which is excellent for
softening and whitening the hands
h made by pouring boiling water on
the bits of toilet soap which accu
mulate and adding the juice of a
lemon and a teaspoonful of glycerin
to a pint of the jelly.
Fried Cereal.
Cook any cereal as for breakfast
and turn it out into a bread pan to
cool. When cold cut in thin slices,
fry until crisp in a very little but
ter. Serve this with maple sirup cv
melted light brown sugar.
