Puzzling Figures and a Joke. Put down the year you were born; add 1. Then add your age at your next birthday, prorided it eonioi before Jgn. 1; otherwise your la-t hirthdav. Hultipjr the result by 1,000. From tliis subtract .Ü4.-J'.'.'?. Buhstitoii for the resulting figure the corresponding letters of the alphabet A for 1. B for v. C for .'1, gic. The resolt will give the name by which you are popularly known. This trick i- given to suit the year 190.V For 1!'0, and for everv vear after
that add an additional 1,M to the amount to be. subtracted viz. for L900 make it G9Ö. I2:?. and so on. Try this trick and see how it works. Stubborn Paper Wad. Ihd you ever sec a puer wad that ia hi stubborn that it will fly m the face of one who tries to compel it to go into th" neck of a bottle? The more you try to blow it in the more it leaves t e bottls. You cun try thia wiih III lare bottle and a paper wad or cork small enough to fit very loosely in its neck. Holding the bottle so that it point- directly at your mouth and placing the cork in the neck, the harder roe blow on the cork for the purjose of driving it into the bottle the more forcibly will the cork rush from it piece in the neck. Try tin- stunt and see if you can discover what canges the pecuüar action of the paper wd. The Dutch Wadding. First the ones who are selected to he bride and groom it down on the floor together, and then the gToowi choose some girl to sit in front of him. and the bride choooss some loy to sit in front f her. ami so on, the girl choosing a hoy to sit in front of her and the boy choosing u girl until all the couples in the room are seated OB the floor. Then everv couple has to do whatever the bride and groom do for instance, if the gffMM makes faces at the bride or says nn thing to her, so must every couple do. It i bushels of fun if the hndc and groom play their part well. Cat and Mouse. The children sit in two rows opposite each other, with a space between. One child takes the place of "cat," being blindfolded, and one takes the place of "mouse" and is al-o blindfolded, the cat standing at one end of the row and the mouse at the opposite and. They start in opposite d rection.-. guiding themselves by the chairs, the cut trying to catch the mouse. When the BOnst caught it i made the cat, and one of the company takes the place of (he mouse . Tno Tax Dod0r. Judging from income tax statistics, millionaires are scarce in Iterlin. c-pivially when the assessors are muting their annual visits.

Argonaut. Queen Amelia's Daring. An incident which adds to Queen Amelia of Portugal's reputation as a daring horsewoman is told by the Woman's Journal. "Recently she took jmrt in the Portuguese army maneuvers near the Spani-h frontier. One day her regiment was ordered to crosa a deep stream over a bridge which prosed to bjg rotieti. It broke, and the regiment rushed about, ptusled as to what to do. At this moment Queen Amelia, spurring her horse, galloped into the stream and led them all across, with the water up l the saddles."
