dinner from soup to
nuts and raising. The
somnolent spirits have
taken their after-dinner
nap and the more stren-
uous ones have come
back from a brisk after-
dinner trainp. It's grow-
ing colder outside. Twi-
light is approaching.
Within. around the
open fire, housemates and guests have
gathered for an evening of Thanks-
giving jollity.
And now what shall wo do? No
dry. brain-racking game of whist, no
Myltsh hand of bridge nothing like
that is meant for this glorious occa-
sion. Any kind of cards is too exclu-
sive. loo cold blooded for this hour.
No, next on the Thanksgiving pro-
gram is an evening of good, whole-
some. silly, jolly games.
A few suggestions in the line of
games of this sort may help the
housemother make this Thanksgiving
evening is an especially jolly one.
"Telegram" is a good game to get
every one Into good humor as quickly
as possible. Supply each member of
the company with a pencil and a
sheet of paper. Bach person is then
to say offhand some letter of the al-
phabet. The letters, in the order
named, are taken down by the whole
company. The stint set is for each
one to v. rite a telegram made up of
words beginning with the letters giv-
en All the letters must be used, the
original order must be preserved and
no extra words can be added. When
the tclegr ns are completed they are
gathered in, mixed up and dealt out
again that responsibility for and per-
sonality in them may be impossible
to place
After they have been read, a new
net of letters is given and new tele-
granis composed. Very shortly each
one In the company will be chuckling
with delight over his own efforts and
roaring with laughter over the Ingen-
ious and ridiculous conglomerations
that will be read. Prom A 11 (' n E K
O II 1 .1. for Instance, one might pro-
duce "Aunt Betsy's cow dying"—
"Kdltha flunked German"— "Holo-
caust Imminent, .lane " Another might
make of it "All broken-hearted. Come
directly. Ever faithful George has
ignominiougly Jilted."
"Gossip" is great fun, though no
ono wants to play it more than a few
minutes. I.et the entire company
stand side by side on a straight line.
Then let the person who stands at
one end whisper something very
company, the exiled member will be
I able to tell over whom. The door
I must be left open. The confederates
explain that this In order not to In-
i terrupt the current of electricity be-
| tween them.
The magic-monger allows the com-
pany to chat a few minutes after his
confederate has departed. Then he
suddenly breaks in upon the conversa-
tion. waving the wand and saying in
a sepulchral tone. "The wand passes."
The exile answers from the next
room very solemnly, "Let it pass."
Again comes the announcement, "The
wand passes." and again the answer,
"l.et it pass." The third time the pos-
sessor of the wand holds it over some
head and inquires, "The wand rests
over whom?"
Then is the exile promptly to an- j
fewer, "Over so-and-so," naming the ,
right person. The trick is accom- j
plished by having it arranged that the I
confederate who remains in the room j
shall hold the wand over the person
who spoke last before the announce-
ment, "The wand passes." All the ex-
ile in the next room need be able to
do is to distinguish the voices of the
company.
Another mystifying game is called
"Chinese writing." Take grandfather's
cane in your hand; request your con-
federate to step into the hall. All de-
cide upon a rather short word, say, , were forbidden to
"meat." Both of you understand that forty stripes f Deut 2
you will tap with your cane for the
vowels according to their regular or-
der; a, one tap; e, two taps; i. three
taps; o, four taps; u, five taps, and
that the first letter of the first word
of every remark that you make after
your confederate enters will be a con-
sonant of the word she is to guess.
The taps of the cane will be the vow-
els according to their order.
As she enters you begin marking
on the floor with your cane marvel-
lous characters, which the whole com-
pany will watch eagerly. As you
write you say casually, "Must I write
fast?" Here she gets the "M." Then
you make two heavy tups as you
write, which, according to the code
means "E." After a little more writ-
ing make another single tap for the
"A." Then say naturally, "Try to fol-
low me very closely," which gives her
the "T" to complete the word. Go on
writing mysteriously for a moment
or two and then ask her if she has
read the word all right. She will
doubtless be able to tell the company.
to their great astonishment. With a
little ingenuity you can make your re-
marks sound very natural and hence
make the trick seem very puzzling.
If you have in your company any
person good natured enough to ap-
preciate a joke on himself, the follow-
ing trick will furnish much fun: An-
nounce that you will hypnotize any
friend who is willing to follow your
directions. Retire from the room
and take two cups and saucers. Put
your own carefully aside. Then take
the other saucer and hold it over a
lamp or candle until the under part 13
covered with soot. Put the cup back
in the saucer. Fill the cups with wa-

pering. the next door neighbor Im-
parts the message just as swiftly and
just as secretly to his neighbor and
so on down the line
When the last person In line Is
reached the originator of the message
tells the company what he said and
the man at the other
said to him Of course
that it is
for the spell to work unless he follow
your directions exactly. Present him
with a cup and saucer. Tell him to

Games in which two of the com-
pany, confederates, mystify the rest
are nlways fun. although hey ran, of
course, be played only once Prime
among thesi Is "The Wand Passes.'
One of the company i sent from the
room. Another, who is in league with
the first, promises that when he holds

and cheeks. The patient to be hyp-
notized will do the same, and as the
under side of his saucer is thick with

its mark. The effect on the part of
the company who are entirely unpre-
pared for this denouement soon en-
lightens the victim. The soot scrabs

TIME.—Autumn of A. D. SI to late in
r-2 or early in 53.
' PLACE.—In Macedonia where tile Sec-
ond Epistle to the Corinthians was writ-
ten.
Suggestion and Practical Thought.
1. The church in Corinth was very
young, not seven years old, from the
first coming of Paul, who remained
with them only a year and a half.
Since that time they had grown in
numbers with but little outside help
from Paul and those who represented
hi:.>.
2. The young church was surround-
ed by intense worldliness, and heathen
immoralities and principles, which
were like an Intense moral malaria,
au unhealthy atmosphere.
3. There was in t ie city a consider-
able colony of Jews who were opposed
to the whole Chris Ian movement.
4. An anti-Pauline mission of Chris-
tian Jews from P; lestlne came to
Corinth with views opposed to Paul's
teachings concernir, j the Gentiles,
and insisted that all Gentile Chris-
tians should conform to the Jewish
ritual.
5. Cases of itniuo-ality had arisen
in the church for \rliich Paul had
been compelled to reprove them.
B. There were divisions among
them, one being for Peter, another
for Paul, and another for Christ, as if
all were not for Christ.
7. There were attacks upon Paul's
character and authority.
Speaking of those wl o claimed to
be the real leaders und apostles, and
who condemned him, Paul says;
22. "Are they Hebrews," of purest
blood, one of the nation "nd lan-
guage?
"So am I."
"Are they Israelites," of tie true re-
ligion, worshiping the one God?
"So am I."
"Are they the seed of Abraham," in-
heritors of the promises, of the Mes-
sianic hopes, and the kingdom of God?
"So am i."
24. "Five times received I forty
stripes save one" from the Jews. None
are mentioned in the Acts. The Jews
inflict more than
), and lest
they should break the law by a mis-
take in counting they inflicted only
thirty-nine.
2" "Thrice was I I eaten with rods."
Once mentioned in A-ts lii:22. A sim-
ilar instance is g ven by Cicero
against Verres, V. 6.'..
"Once was I stoned." At Lystra
(Acts 14:19). Stoning was planned
once before at Iconium, but the plan
was not carried out (Acts 14:3).
Two.—The second test of apostle-
ship—12:1-6 Vision. Insight. Com-
munion with God. Realization of the
spii itual. Paul's second answer to ob-
jectors is that he has a right to speak
in the name of God; for though he
had not seen Jesus in the flesh, he
had seen eternal things, he had re-
ceived revelations fr.im God.
2. "I knew" tbettjr "I know") "a
man in Christ." Th t he is referring
to himself is proved by v. 7; and the
whole argument iuij)lies it. How it
came, he could not teil, but he knew
the fact. 'Caught up to the third
heaven," beyond the visible heaven,
"to the highest heaven where the
throne of God is." to Paradise the
abode of the just, and of the angels.
Whatever place it may have been, it
was into the inmost spiritual realities.
Note the several visions which are
recorded in the Acts from this vision
of Jesus at his conversion, to his
vision in the storm on the way to
Rome. In his letter to the Galatians 1
(1:11, 12) Paul declares:
"I certify you, brethren, that the j
Gospel which was preached of me is
not after man.
"For I neither received It of man, !
neither was I taught it, but by the j
revelation of Jesus Christ."
Something of this vision, of this
communion of God with our spirits, I
of this realization of heaven and its
life, of this Insight Into spiritual j
truths, is necessary to our best useful-
ness and our highest life
Three.—The third test of Paul's
Apostleship was his saintly life.— i
12:7-10. Paul shows that the signs of
an apostle were wrought among the j
Cornlthlans "in signs and wonders and 1
mighty deeds," every one of them for j
the good of the people and the glory !
of God. "I seek not yours but you," I
"I will very gladly spend and be spent
for you, though the more abundantly :
I love you, the less I bo loved."
The Thorn in the Flesh. One special
form in which his salntliness was cul- j
tlvat d and manifested is described in j
vs. 7-10.
What Paul's (v. 71 "thorn in the
flesh" was we cannot tell. But It ap-
pears to have been something which
he feared would lessen his power
among them and hinder his work.

Recipe That Breaks a Cold in a Day
and Cures Any Curable Cough.
"Mix half ounce of Concentrated
pine compound with two ounces of
glycerine and half a pint of good
whiskey; shake well each time and
use in doses of a teaspoonful to a ta-
blespoonful every four hours."
These ingredients can be obtained
from any good druggist or he will
get them from his wholesale house.
The Concentrated pine is a special j
pine product and comes only in half j
ounce bottles, each enclosed in an air-
tight case, but be sure it is labeled
"Concentrated."

the most eminent physicians it was essen-
tial that the component parts of Syrup
of l igs ami I'.lixir of Senna should bo

fore, the California Fig Syrup Co. pub-
lishes a lull statement with every package.
The perfect purity and uniformity of pro-
duct, which they demand in a laxative
remedy of an ethical character, are assured
by the Company's original method of man-
ufacture known to the Company only.
The figs of California arc used in the
