HIGHLY COLORED FUN.
Qroteaqu* Sport That la a Part of th*
Holi Festival.
1 The curiously childish horseplay of
the Holi festival, which Is celebrated
annually by the maburaja v( Piitlala.
J Is described by Mrs Charles Bertram
In "A Magician In Many tatuls." The
author made the acquaintance of the
famous Hindu ruler during n tour of
India and was Invited to remain orer
for the festival.
Karly In the morning I went to the
club, where I found many of the
guests, who were taking part In the
ceremony for the first time. We were
provided with a complete new suit of
ITInriu garments, and our dressing
was superintended by the mahnraja'a
servants. We had camels, elephant*
and victorias provided for us. I was
on an elepbaut In a kind of box. and
we drove In procession to the palace
In the native city.
We were received with great acclaim
by the natives, and I was led to lie
lleve that it waa to lie decldcdly a dig
nlfled occasion. But I was woefully
mistaken. The fun had not begun
Certain formalities had to be gone
through beffcre the algnal was given.
We took our aeats In the courtyard
of the palac* at a long table that was
loaded with large gilt dishes filled with
dlfi'erent colored balls as large aa
oranges and filled with Iloli powder
At a signal the brother of the roahara
Ja came to the front of the table and
aalaamed to the prince, who took one
of the balla and threw It gently across
the table, atrlklng the offl>-?r on the
breast.
The ball broke and scattered the
powder over bis costume. Then there
was a general scramble, and In less
time than it takes to write hundreds
of halls were (lying about, their many
colored contents scattered broadcast on
the crowd Next baskets of loote pow j
tier were thrown upon us In bandfnla.
It was 110 use to exiwstnlate. The
moment you opentil your mouth some
body filled It with |?owder. The battle i
grew fast and fnrloua. when suddenly J
an enormous stream of water from a
fit* engine drenched everyliody. The j
colored jwwders l>eeauie wet and, mln ]
gllng together, dyed us all In brilliantly j
variegated hues.
After this sort of thing had gone on
for half an hour It ceaaed by mutual i
consent, and we returned to the pri- !
vate gardens of the maharaja. where
we 'vere most unceremoniously pitch- |
ed Into a tank of running water. I i
was dyed a deep scarlet all over my j
liody. and It w as fully a month liefore j
the color entirely disappeared from my ;
face and hands.
Sbe Knew tha Symptom*.
There is a certain bright Engllslr
actresa who comes ever here every
year or two to play an engagement,
says the Saturday Evening Post.
Among her admirers on this side Is a
middle aged theatrical man of a aerl
?>us turn of mind. He is courtly, but
has heei. called tiresome in con versa
tion. One afternoon at her suit In a
New York hotel the sprightly lady was
brewing a dish of tea for a couple of
new-spaper men. The telephone bell
rang, and the hostess answered the
call.
"Yes." she said, "this ts Miss Blank.
WJjo? Oh. Mr Blink calling, is itT*
Then, In a tone of weary resignation,
"Very well, send him right up." She
hung up the receiver and turned to the
newspat>or meu.
"Boys." she said, "you'll have to tod
die away. My alck headache is com
Ing on."

Algebra.
The science of algebra Is said tt
have been the Invention of Mohammed
of Buzlnna about S30 A. P. The scl
ence was Introduced Into Spain by th? ,
Moor*. The first treaties on the *nbjecl
In any European language 1* believed
to have been that by Luca Pa col I It
1494. The first English algebra w?f
written by Robert Itecorde, teacher ol
mathematics at Cambridge, about 1657
Tie was the first to use the sign ol
equality.
Killing Tim*.
Perhaps the busiest time of the yrai '
In old colonial days was November,
called "killing time." When the chosen
day arrived oxen, cows and swine
which had been fattened for the win
ter's stock were slaughtered early in
the morning that the meat might be
hard and cold before being put in the
pickle. Sausages, rollche* and head
cheese were made, lard tried out and
tallow saved.
Changed.
"When my two girls were born 1
used to wonder what 1 was going to
make of them."
"And now?"
"Now that they're grown up and Id
society I've begun wondering what
they're going to make of me."? De troll

Trade At Home I
IT is i hard thing to 'convince ?om<- people, who have Acquired tha
* mad order habit, that it is to their advantage to trade at home. The
green fields far away appeal to them. so they tend their money out of
town for something that is no better than can be found on the local
merchant's shelves. The money is thus gone where they, n ??? any on#
of the community, will ever see it again, and where it can nobody
good but tha person who has it and he is hundreds or thoiwands of
mile* away.
THE MAIL ORDER PEOPLE
are not the only offenders who are blind to the interests ofthe commu
nity. The merchants are just as bad. Many of them send away for
their printing while at the same.' time argue agains?mail ordae business
