Three Chinese Game*.
“Let Out the Dove*.”—At the cry of
Let out the doves” one of the larger
girls takes hold of the hands of two
of the smaller girls, one of whom rep
resents a dove and the other a hawk.
The hawk stands behind the big girl,
and the dnve In front of her. She
throws the dove away as she might
toss a bird In the air. and as the child
runs she waves her arms as though
they were wings. The hawk ie then
thrown in the same way. and it fol
lows the dove. The big girl then claps
her hands as the Chinese do to bring
their pet birds to them, and the dove,
if not caught, returns to the cage.
Seek fdr Gold.—This is a variation
of our popular ‘Jacks.” Several girls
gather up some pebbles, squat down
in a group, and scatter all the peb-
bles. Then one draws her finger be-
tween two of the stones and snaps one
against the other. If she hits it, thq
two stones are taken up and put aside
to her credit. She is entitled to draw
her finger again between two more
and snaps them. When she misses an-
other girl takes up what pebbles are
left, scatters them, snaps them, takes
them up, and so on until one or anoth-
er child gets the most of the pebbles
and the game is won.
“Kick the Marbles."—Two boys and
two marbles are required. The first
boy says to the second: "Kick this
marble north (south, east, west),
pointing to one of the marbles. Only-
one kick is allowed. If he succeeds,
he wins; if he fails, the other wins.
If he puts it north as ordered, he may
kick again to hit the other marble, in
which case he wins again. If he hits
the marble and goes north, as ordered,
at one kick, he wins double.
Each boy tries to leave the marbles
in as difficult a position as possible
for his successor: and here comes in
a peculiarity which makes this game
unique among all games. If the posi-
tion in which the marbles are left is
too difficult for the other to play, he
may refuse to kick, and the first boy
is obliged to play his own difficult
game.
New Version of a Peanut Party.
Arrange tables as for a progressive
card game, only place a generous
handful of peanuts (In the shell) in
the center of each table and provide
a pair of tongs like those that come
in boxes of candy, for each player.
After the fashion of jack straws, the
game is to see how many peanuts can
be removed without moving one
When one is moved the player gives
up and the next one tries. At the end
of twenty minutes a bell is rung and
th© player at each table having the
most peanuts progresses. The win-
ners at th© different tables play an-
other round until there is only one
winner, who receives the reward,
which may be a large peanut candy
box filled with salted peanuts.
Children love this game. The main
thing is to impress upon them all is
that th»*y must play fair.
Stood-Ball (England).
This game originated first in merrie
England, and was played by the milk-
maids:
A certain number of “stools” (fiat

Two captains are chosen, and each
captain then chooces alternately the
remaining company until two long

burls himself between two boys of th«
opposing side. If he succeeds in

broke through. If be is unsuccessful

A Juggling Match.
At English country fairs this amuse
me-nt used to be in great favor.
A large circle, inclosed by a rope
was occupied by nine or ten people
and all except one were blindfolded
This one was called the “jingler,” be
cause he held In his hand a small bell
which he rang incessantly. His com
panions, following the sound of th*
bell, tried to catch him. If at the enC
of an allotted time he was not caught
he received a prize: otherwise th*
prize went to the caioher.
Pebble-Ch**e (Greek).
In this more modern amusement ol
the Greek children, the leader stand*
amongst the players, holding a pebble
between the palms of his hands. Each
player extends his hands, palm to
palm, and the leader puts his hand*
between the palms of each player, os
tensibly to drop in the pebble be if
holding The player who receives th*
pebble is chased by the others, and
may only be saved by returning To th*
leader and giving the pebble to him
The chase may begin as soon as the
players suspect who lias the pebble
so each player should carefully watch
the hands and faces of the others to
see who gets it, and us soon as he
suspects one, start to chase him
Leaders and players must exercise
ingenuity to keep the secret of the
whereabouts of the pebble, but not
aftei the last pair of hand* has been
passed.

CORSETS
I Ihtc are so many good models in tile G-D Justrite line de-
signed for different types of figures that it is impossible to
put one model above another in importance. Model 3205, for
the average figure, has endeared itself to so many wearers that
it takes a foremost place among G-D Justrite corsets.
It allows full deep breathing with no compression of the waist.
It has splendid hip lines and the soft extension skirt—taking
admirable care of the lower portion of the figure. 1 he pleas-
ing lines of this model cause the wearers to be enthusiastic
in its praise.
Even G-D Justrite is rustless, and guaranteed to give satis-
factory wear. Look lor the little G-D Justrite tag in every
corset. It’s your guarantee.

Latest Fashion in Shoes.
Shoes are now more elaborate than
ever. High shoes are worn in the
morning only, with the tailor-made
eostumeB and for traveling or for
sport. The shoes are of an infinite
variety. The vamps are shorter than
ever. The uppers are made of stuft
to match the dress or in leather of the
same shade. The newest fastening Is
arranged with small interlaced straps,
buttoning on each side with flat but-
tons.
Tan shoes are having an aftermath
of success, and they harmonize very
happily with the dull tints of the
satins and furs worn by the smart
woman.
Two Simple Blouses That
Are Among the Prettiest
Chance for the Moosers.
The Bull Moosers will have a ticket
in Oklahoma next year if a bill passed I
by the house of representatives Wed-
nesday gets by the senate safely. Also,
scratching a ticket w ill call for some
serious consideration, and with some
men, a scrimmage with their con-
science, especially If they should have
voted In the primaries.
The measure, which is by Speaker
Maxey and Representatives Pruett,
Pinkham, Tehee, Wright and Bonds,
proposes four important changes in I
the primary laws. The speaker 1
plained it as a bill curing four fatal I
defects in the present statutes. Pro-
vision is made by which new parties
may get their names on the ballots,
which will work especially for the
benefit of the progressives. A rota-
tion of candidates’ names is required,
to prevent any one else being elected
to high state office Bimply because hlsj
name begins with some first letter of i
the alphabet.
Primary voters will have to stick to
their own party or take oath of their:
intention to support, the nominee of j
the party otherwise in whose nomlna- j
tlons they desire to take part.
Drastic penalties for casting false j
ballots, for false swearing to elector’s j
qualifications, for destroying ballots,
illegal voting and defacing ballots are i
| provided.
The bill passed by a vote of 62 to
| 16, with the two progressive Republi-I
I cans, King and Ruby, voting with the!
! Democrats for the measure.

Governor Signs Rent Bill.
| The rent for the buildinr? in which

' offices of a number of the depart-
I inents will now bo paid by the state
[treasurer, in accordance with senate
[bill No. 97, which was formally ap-
proved by Governor Cruce. The bill
provides for an appropriation of $47,
410.04 for rent on the Mercantile build-
ing owned by the Levy brothers and
23,033.00 due to C. L. Lawrence for
rent on the Lawrence building. The
appropriation covered the amount due

was framed by the senate committee
on appropriations and carries the
emrgency clause.
