Louisville Courier-Journal. FOR THEUrTLE ONES. In Indian Boy’s Odd Description of the Horse. Here is the description of a horse written by an Indian boy, a student at Carlisle, Pa. Do you think it is correct, and, if not, how would you improve it ? “The horse is a very noble quad ruped, but when ho is angry lie will not do so. He is ridden on the spi nal cord by the bridle, and sadly the driver places his foots on the stir rups and divides his lower limbs The leader of the game then col lects the figures nnd with paste or mucilage attaches them to the card board on the wall, the black side of the figure out, and each figure with •its number beside it. Now give to each player a sheet of paper with numbers written down the left hand side, as many numbers as there are drawings, and ask them to write opposite to each number the name of the animal that the numbered figure is intended to “A cheap skate mu wad or a geezer that’s uppers, but/in either well, he’h a “I am iu>i Buit i ijuuc cumprc* bend you. but he is an objectionable person, i» lie not?” “Sure.” “That was my inference.'

French Game. A game adapted from the French that is very popular among the lit tle people of America is a good test for the memory. It is played as follows: The children must sit in a cirfcle, and one, as leader, announces in this fashion: “1 pack mv trunk} and in it I put”— mentioning some article used iu traveling, as gloves, brush or cologne. The next child begins then, say- . ing what the leader has said and! adding another article, and so on * around the circle, each child re-^ InQ Gcinnon Compiiny peating all the articles mentioned* ny the leader in their correct order and then adding ono more to the list, which after awhile assumes lengthy proportions. If one boy or girl forgets ono ar ticle or puts it in the wrong order, he or she must drop out of the game, and the last child remaining has the privilege of starting a new game.

About that time I was making a ra| doll for a littlo niece of mine, am I-not only made it, hut 1 painted its face.
