Definitions, Telegrams and the Feather Supply. A very amusing game is the woodseller, and it is capable of several variations, in cluding the ever popular forfeits. Any number of persons may join in the game. The person who starts the games writes the name of come kind of wood on a pa per, and folds the paper so that no one can see the word written upon it. He then goes around, all the rest of the players being seated, and says: “I have a ioad of wood to sell." Each person in turn asks: "Waat kind?" The answer is: "Find out.” Then the person mentions one kind, and if it hapeus to be the wrong one. the woodseller goes to the next, and so on, until it is finally guessed right. When the right one is named, the one naming it 'becomes wood seller. All who make mistakes must pay a for feit to be redeemed at the end of the game. Those who name a wood twice pay. ; The list of wool* is a long one. but the •best known ones are the very ones that the players are most apt to overlook in naming them. A clever person can make I much fun by the manner of calling out ' his wares, and another by w-itty rejoinders. Definitions is another interesting round game, suitable for young folks, and their elders need not disdain to jain in. The leader gives to each a slip of paper on 1 which she or he writes the word given to I define, and the definition of it according ' to the idea of the writer. Each player In turn has the right to ' give the word, and all these words are written down before the definitions are written. The object is to allow each one liberty in defining a Word to be epigram matic, poetical, ideal “wind" was defined as “rude boreas—blustering roarer," "the fan of nature.” “a bellows that stirs up great flee” and the "the sailor’s friend and enemy,” “the champion kisser,” etc. A pen was defined as "a loss to one goose 1 and no gain to another,” “the servant of thought,” “the cause of many a lawsuit.” 1 There is no limit to the wise and witty and foolish things one may find in these definitions. When they are all written, and each »lir signed, they are foldel and put in a vase, and the best reader is chosen to read them. The best ones entitle the writer to a prize. After a game of this kind, which re quires concentrated thought, a more lively one may be played. A good one for this purpose is where the comapny present tries to keep a feather in the air. For this game it requires a small, light feather, preferably white. All present sit in a cir cle. One blows the feather up into the air, and it is the duty of each to try to keep it from falling and resting anywhere. It is not easy to do this, as the most of the blowers begin to laugh. The one who lets it fall must pay a forfeit, and anyone on which it falls must pay a forfeit. Have you ever played “telegrams?” It is a game for a crowd of young or old, or both. Not a very deep or intricate game, not yet a particularly elevating one, but, nevertheless full of jolly, mirth-pro voking qaulities. To carry out the idea properly, slips of yellow paper should be handed to each, participant, and pencils provided for them Each one is to write thirteen different let ters at the top of their slip. That is, any thirteen from the alphabetical twenty-six, but without repetition. For instance, one might write: B. G, K, L, M, T, E, W, C, S, H. O, R. Another: A. B. C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, and so on. The slips are then to be passed along to hight-hand neighbors, <who must make an understanda.ble telegram of thirteen words, using the characters at the top of the slip handed them, for the first letter of each word. To thoroughly illustrate, take the example given above. Here is a specimen of “telegram” from it: "Better go to Kingston late Monday. Try express Willie candy soldier. Hope orders rushing.” ' Note the fragmentary sentences such as are generally employed in correspondence of this sort. The possibilities for good humored fun in the compiling of “tele grams” among a crowd of friends are end less. But. of course, they cannot be satis factorily illustrated in public print. As in any similar games care should be exercis ed in not becoming dangerously personal. At the first glance the second example of letters as given above (the first thirteen in our alphabet) might seem to be difficult of extension. But such is not the case in the wide latitude of sense (and nonsense) allowable in the game. For instance, here is only one way out of the thousands in which it can be quickly written: "Any bright colored dress excellent for Granville’s hop. Ikey joins kisses. Lov ing mother. Upon completion the telegrams are gath ered up in a banket and read aloud, either by a disinterested party or somebody selec ted from among the players themselves. The only way to complete the game of ‘‘telegrams" is to try it. Spreads Like Wildfire. You can't keep a good thing down. News of it travels fast. When things are "the best” they become the “best selling.” Abraham Hare, a leading drugigst, of Bellevue, 0., writes: “Electric Bitters are the best selling bitters I have ever handled in my 20 years experience." You know why? Most diseases begin in disorders of stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, blood and nerves. Electric Bitters tones up the stom ach, regulates the liver, kidnej-s and bowels, purifies the blood, strengthens the nerves, hence cures multitudes of mala dies. It builds up the entire system. Puts new life and vigor into any weak, sickly run-down man or woman. Only 50 cents. Sold by H. J. Lamar & Sons, druggists. Guaranteed. Two Pointed Questions Answered. What is the use of making a better ar ticaJe than your competitor if you can knot get a beter price for it? Ans. —As there is no difference in the price the public will buy only the better, so that while our profits may be smaller on a single sale they will be much larger in the aggregate. How can you get the public to know that your make is the best? If both articles are brought prominently before the public both are certain to be tried and the public will very quickly pass judgment on them and use only the better one. This explains the large sale on Cham berlain's Cough Remedy. The people have been using it for years and have found that it can always be depended upon. They may occasionally take up with some fash ionable novelty put forth with exagger ated claims, but are certain to return to the one reemdy that they know to be re liable, and for coughs, colds and croup there is nothing equal to Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy.

When the oldest Inhabitant talks of by gone day« with other old inhabitants, in a certain little New England town,T>ne of the anecdotes told and chuckled over is that of Sammy Dilver and the great Sep tember gale—the same famous gale whose theft of his Sunday breeches from the clothesline has been so merrily immortal ized by Dr. Holmes. But Sammy Dilver was more fortunate than the poet. He lost nothing and gained his winter's fire wood. There was only one thing known against Sammy by his fellow townsmen, but that lowered him very much in their estimation. “There isn’t any harm in Sammy,” they were wont to say,.“but there isn’t any good, either. He is just ah if'less—terrible shif less—and it is hard on Maria, who is a driver, to put up with him.” , Long before he was formally warned to do so by the selectmen of the town Maria told him he ought to cut down the big hollow elm by the gate or it would fall some day and kill somebody. Sammy had amiably acquiesced, but he bad never taken any more active steps toward its re moval than to walk occasionally around its huge girth with an expression of awe on his countenance and whistle softly under his breath as he thought of the task be fore him. Then he was notified that the tree was dangerous and must be removed, and he got so far as to borrow an ax and begin to sharpen it before his courage failed him. The warning was repeated, but without avail. It was again repeated, and then came the gale. That terrible day, when “oaks lay scat tered on the ground as if they were p’ta ters,” as Dr. Holmes puts it, Sammy’s great elm was one of the first trees to feel the wrath of the tempest. There was a crash. Sammy and Maria rushed to the window. There across their garden patch lay a mighty branch, torn away. A few minutes later came a second crash, and half the trunk, with another large branch attached, had split away longitudinally down the central hollow and lay prostrate on the ground. The mutilated remainder followed shortly, and the whole gigantic elm lay in a ruinous mass, not merely blown over, but blown to pieces. The force of the wind had flung it away from the road, where it would naturally have fallen, and it missed the Dilver house only by a few feet, but while Maria, for all her strength of mind, was weeping with terror Sammy found voice to ex press a very different feeling. “Daown!” he exclaimed in a tone of deep relief. “Daown and split, sure as you live, and I never touched her!” There indeed lay the great mass conven iently ready to be chopped for firewood, as Maria soon reminded him, but the worst of Sammy’s dreaded job was appar ently over, quite without effort on his part. As the storm began to abate the two were discussing how much fuel the tree would yield when with a terrific howl the gale gathered itself for a parting effort. The house shook, the wind roared, there was another crash, and a section of roof, blow’n from no one ever knew where, was dashed down upon the shattered elm and knocked it into a shower of splinters and separated shingles. Mrs. Dilver shrieked aloud. Sammy clutched her arm with a cry of triumph. “Kindlin’s, too, Maria!” he shouted. “Kindlin’s too!”—Youth’s Companion.
