Come , all ye little- would be cooks. And join our m.-rry band : Learn to prepare the toothsome foods Enjoyed throughout the land. Put on your caps and aprons quaint. Set out two bowls and spoons. And butter well your biscuit tins For oatmeal macaroons. " The sugarcane ! the butter mix Till creamy as can be. Then add the beaten yolk of egg And stir most thoroughly. In another bowl the dry things put , The oatir.eal ami the salt. Stirred with the baking powder till They blend without a fault. Next mix the contents of the bowls And add vanilla , too. And last the well whipped white of egg Most thoroughly mixed through. Then drop the mixture from a spoon , Two inches space between. In little bits no larger than " A tiny lima bean. St. Nicholas. Turning Water Into Milk. For the trick you will need some limewater - ' water , a. glass tumbler ami a rod of , glass or a piece of broken window pane I small enough to be used for stirring the 1 contents of the tumbler and so long thnt the water will not get on your fin gers. You can buy enough limewater , from the druggist .for f cents , or you can make it yourself by dropping bits of 'unslaked lime intothe amount of water you are goinj ? to use. Drop tiny bits at a time and wait until each is dissolved before you drop the next , b cause the chemical combination of the lime and the water generates great heat. Li mo is calcium oxide. Com bined with Water i't makes calcium hy droxide. Set before your guests the tumbler of lime wafer , which does not look differ ent from pure water. Tell the company that your breath is magic aud will turn the water into milk and then breathe into the tumbler , stirring the water with the glass rod after each breath. The water will turn white , and the white will become more dense as you continue breathing. What have you done ? You have -made a second chemical combination , without heat this time. The carbon dioxide in your. breath has combined with the calcium hydroxide and pro duced water aud calcium carbonate , which is what chalk and limestone are made of. You would better warn your friends that there is chalk in the milk you serve , because pretty soon the white powder that made the water opaque will sink to the bottom of the tumbler , leaving clear water above it. Tom Tiddler's Ground. A game that used to be played by our graildparcuts and by their grand parents ( only under another name ) is Tom Tiddler's ground. There must be at least three players. One is chosen to be Torn Tiddler , and his ground is the lawn or the yard any part of the ground marked off as his domain. Tom Tiddler gets on to his ground and. shut ting his eyes as he stands , nreteiids to be asleep. Then the other players ven ture upon the ground , singing : Hero Tarn on Tom Tiddler's ground. Picking up gold and silver that's round. As Tom continues to play at being asleep , the poachers go closer and closer to him. when suddenly Tom Tid dler makes a dash aud tries to seize upon one of them. If he succeeds in grasping hold of oven the garment of mo of the players the one thus caught bcvome.s Tom Tiddler , and the Orst Tom Tiddler becomes one of the poach ers. If he fails to grasp hold of a player , however , the game goes on as before , continuing till one of them is caught. Geographical Game. Seat the players in a ring. Let tbe first one say aloud the name of a city , mountain , river , lake. etc. . located in any part of the world or in any divi sion of the earth agreed upon. The next ' : : . er must give a name beginning wi'h the last letter of the name pre viously given , and the third must sup ply one beginning with the final letter of the second , and so on around the circle for example. America. Athens , Santiago. Omaha , Antwerp. Peru. / Each player is allowed thirty seconds in which to think. If by the end of that time he fails to give a name he must drop out of the game. The one who keeps up longest is the champion. Any player may at any time be chal lenged to give the geographical loca tion of the place he has named. If he cannot do this he must pay a forfeit. When the King Travels. When the ruler of England travels an engine is carefully selected. In charge of an experienced engineer and fireman. A pilot engine always pre cedes tbe royal train , and no train la allowed to cross ( he main line for halt nn hour before the time fixed for the king to pass. The gates nt nil grade crossings are locked , all shifting op erations are suspended , and an army of trackwalkers is on duty to remove my obstruction from the line. Iu ad dition to this , a telegram is sent from every station heralding his approach. Altogether it must bo quite an event when he takes a trip , but the general traveling public cannot enjoy it. Punctuality at School. * Punctuality at school is more impor-i Lant than is usually appreciated , for it cultivates an important trat | of char- icter which is an excellent one to ac quire. As a rule , there is little excuse Cor boy or girl being late in tbe class room , for both can calculate juct ho\r eng it takes to reach the scho'ol build- np from Iholr homs. Then it IsjoWy a matter of leaving home in time to be n their seats before the 0 o'clock bell n * THE WORLD OF OUT Kirby , New Head of Amateur Athletic Union. t&v Gustavus T. Kirby , the new presi dent of the Amateur Athletic union , is one of the most popular men that ever held the position. For many years he has been inuentified with the sport and. according to friends , is better posted en field athletics than any other man 'in ( he country. Mr Kirby succeeded Everett C. Brown of Chicago as head of the union. Pitcher Bailey Likes Minor League. j Bill Bailey , the young southpaw , does not want'to pitch for the St. Louis Browns next Reason. He was turned over to the Montgomery Southern asso ciation team last season and is eager to return to that city , where he had more luck than in many campaigns. Owner Hedges has refused to turn him back to the Southern leaguers and says 1 he expects Bailey to reward him for 1 some of the four years' salary he paid. Bailey won few games for the Browns. The former Texas sidewheeler claims ' he can make ! ? GOO more each season by remaining with Montgomery than by rejoining the Browns. Pittsburgh Spent Fortune on Players. The Pittsburgh club iu 1911 spent more money for ball players than any 1 other t\vo clubs. The outlay of each I ciub in the major leagues was as fol lows : National Pittsburgh , $40.000 ; Bos ton , $ GOr > 0 ; Brooklyn , $10,930 ; Phila delphia , $8,450 ; St. Louis , $9,750 ; Cin cinnati. $21,800 ; New York. $10,750 ; Chicago , $14,000. American Chicago , $2o.7SO ; St. Lou is , $14,450 ; Philadelphia , $13,750 ; De troit , , $7.850 ; Cleveland , $20,850 ; Wash ington , $13,900 ; New York , ? 25,000 ; Boston , $25,800. Yale May Taks Up Boxing. Properly restricted and safeguarded , boxing might prove an acceptable form of intercollegiate sport , in the opinion of Dr. William G. Anderson , director of the Yale gymnasium , but it would have to be freed from the "knockout" and "any other element that has proved hurtful to boxing. " Discussing the question. Dr. Anderson suggests a meeting of representatives of different colleges and universities for the pur pose of giving the subject careful con sideration. IntcrcoHegiate Ice Hockey. Most all the big college sevens have beguu hockey practice for the approaching preaching season. Few of'the teams have been able to practice on ice. and the majority of them have had to de vote Iheir attention to armory work. Columbia is working out at the St. Nicholas skating rink , in New York , and Harvard's puck chasers are pre paring in the rink in Boston. One Armed Bowler Sets Record. Ned Nelson , the one armed bowler of the O'Leary team , rolled a record breaking total of 711 recently in Clii- cage for the individual titJe in the city pin tournament. This is the highest mark ever made iu the Chicago tour nament , inaugurated in 1904. Probst to Lead Syracuse. Right Tackle Archibald Rudie Probst was % elected captain of the Syracuse eleven for the 1012 season. The se lection was .made on a street car while the members of the team were returning from the game with the St. Louis university recently. Thomson to Captcin Michigan Eleven. George "Bottles" ' Thomson of Cadil lac. Mich. , has been elected"captain of the University of Michigan football team.

Professor Unna of Hamburg Germany , anil Dr. Sabourand , the leading Freach dermatologist , dis covered that a microbe causes bald ness. Tneir theory has time anc again been amply verified througl research experiments carrie.'Lon un der the observa ion of eminent scientist ? .
