This is a neat and offectivo trick to perform boforo a company ofemen, women and children, from whom you can borrow tho few materials you need. Thoso nro a sliver half dollar, a largo wiro hairpin, a heavy ring, and a long hatpin or "stickpin." Bend tho hairpin into tho shape shown in tho picture. Force tho half dollar into tho narrow hook on one end of the hairpin, which hook you havo pinched well together so that it will grip tho coin tightly, nnd hang the ring on tho other, inoro open hook. Now balance tho coin at a point near its edgo and in lino -with the two The Needle, Coin and Ring, hooks, on tho point of tho hatpin, which you hold vertically in your left hand. You can noarly nlways make it bal ance on somo point, but to mako the trick offectivo tho pin should bo very near tho edgo of tho coin, so if tho ring is not very heavy you may havo to borrow another ono and slip it in tho hook beside tho first. Or you enn uso a light ring and ntbstituto a quarter for tho half dollar. Now, If you blow against tho ring tho wholo affair will turn on its pivot, and by giving a good puff every time the ring comes round you can mako it spin very fast and keep on spinning a long timo. If the hatpin is very sharp and of vory hard stool it will gradually boro a hole in tho coin. In deed, it is possible to baro clear through a soft coin in this way. Of courso you should practice this trick boforo you try it in public. Then, if tho ring is a brnss ono and tho coin your own, you can givo your merry-go-round to the youngstors, who will have lots of fun with it. Wardrobe of Mr. Dog.

Football and many other outdoor games aro played by tho blind, certain changes being mado so that In each gamo tho sen so of hearing takes tho place of sight, says tho Baltimore Her ald. In football, 'for instance, a tiny bell is fastened to tho ball, and by tho bell's tinkle tho ball's location is do term ined. Tho blind delight in races of all sorts.

Thero aro plenty of patented hooks and devices for catching flBh, but when thoy are not avallablo all sorts of ingenious devices aro rigged up by thoso who tiro of sitting in tho sun for hours wondorlng why tho fish don't hook themsolves. Hero is ono qf them. It is not recommended whon thoro is a scarcity of bait, but other wise it can bo used with success. It mii3t bo kept in mind, even with this device, thnt all fish do not bito on a hook and pull anxiously in tho hope of being caught. Tho slightest pull of How the Hooks Are Placed, a line should bo responded toby the fisherman, who muBt pull hard enough to jeyle tho barb of tho hook through tho very tough fiber of tho mouth. With this in mind a flshormnn has bottor chances with this dovico than ono with tho plnin hook. Each hook should carry n vory small piece of bait, nicely covering tho point and barb. The bottom hook can carry tho attractive bait, but the others are used id cntch tho fish. Corti io ctnts and quaU ao ctnti worth of any other kind of bluing;.
