TL LL: N per: HOW TO KEEP OLD FESTIVAL OF \u201cTWELFTH NIGHT\u201d In the days of old in England, the Christmas festivities closed with a grand ball and masque on January 6, the King and Queen of Twelfth Night holding merry sway over their subjects for one brief jolly evening.A masquerade party can be given on January 6 still, even in Canada, and enjoyed heartily.Leave the Christmas decoration up for that day, and arrange the furniture so that there may be plenty of room.The King and Queen must be provided for first.At one end of the room there must be a platform where two high-backed chairs are placed for their majesties.Have royal robes for them, too.Red flannel lined with white cotton marked with black to represent ermine is very effective.Then there must be gilt crowns, and two sceptres which may be pokers wrapped in silver foil.A red shawl thrown over the chairs makes royal drapery and garlands of green are hung about them.The Twelfth Night Cake.The guests find heaped in the hall a pile of small candy bags filled with nuts and candies, and a bag is taken by each guest, who is told to keep them carefully.Then the door flies open, and in steps a boy with a toy horn.He is followed by a man cook in cap and apron, who bears aloft the Twelfth Night cake.The small boy announces, after three blasts of his trumpet that a grand march will take place led by the cook, that the cake will soon be cut, and that it contains a pea and a bean to decide who will be King and Queen.Much fun is had in the march, then the cake is cut.If a man should find the pea in his cake he gives it to the lady of his choice who will be Queen, and in like manner the lady disposes of the bean.The Queen takes her place upon the throne after being assisted into her royal robes, but there is a coronation ceremony for the King, who is asked to sit in a chair in the middle of the room.Each guest is then blindfolded in turn, given the gilt paper crown, and led around the King\u2019s chair in a circle about four feet from the chair.He is then stopped directly behind the chair, given a turn in another direc- \u2014 wy \u2014\u2014 = Pa : > Le - ~~.- - ~~ \u2014\u2014\u2014 \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 = ~~ .aan.-\u2014 Mn.oN Mas.3 AN UNUSUAL SHIPWRECK.\u2014The Gloucester (Mass.) fishing schooner, \u201cPremier,\u201d was recently damaged by running ashore near Lockeport.December 14, was hauled out on the marine railway- On December 13 she was taken to Yarmouth for repairs, and or While shoring her up she suddenly, and without any on Sunday, warning, fell, demolishing the cradle of the railway.A similar accident occurred to the Pictou Marine Railway some years ago.A Le Ne NN NT 0 tion and told that he is given ten steps in which to find and crown the King.All those who are successful are rewarded by being entitled to draw for a pretty box of home-made candies.Honour Their Majesties.Tt is now explained that all honour must be shown to the King and Queen by their subjects, and anyone who is found with their back turned to their majesties must forfeit a nut to the King and a candy to the Queen out of the bag that has been given them.There will be a reward at the end of the evening for the courtier who has managed to keep the greatest number of nuts and candies.The King and Queen having returned to their platform the game of The King\u2019s Highway is then played.For this a winding course is laid out with a ball of ced twine, and along this highway are placed all manner of Nm Se obstructions; a pan of water, chairs at odd angles, stools, boxes, vases of flowers, and so on.Each guest in turn is now given a large shoe-Dbox, prettily wrapped in tissue-paper, and, balancing it on a tablespoon, tries to walk down the King's Highway with this gift for the King.There is great fun among the other guests as the unfortunate pilgrim stumbles over chairs, jumps the pan of water, and climbs over the pile of books with his present still balanced aloft on the spoon.If he drops it, he must hand it over to the next volunteer, but if he reaches the throne with it, His Majesty graciously presents him with a pretty favor from a huge basket that stands beside the throne.Another guest now takes the gift, and attempts the journey.A supper of which old fashioned dishes form the greater part closes the revels.ATHLETICS IN THE SCHOOLS OF MONTREAL\u2014The Basket-Ball team of the Montreal High School, an organization that has won considerable distinction in its matches with teams from other schools in and around the Commercial Metropolis of Canada.VOST NN NN THE RIDE OF THE NEW YEAR The little young New Year rode in on the storm, Al] muffled in ermine to keep himself warm; He reined in his charger, his bridle rein flung little star people that over him hung.To The Old Year rode slow to the edge of the night, And close to the New Year he pressed in his flight; And over the little young shoulders he flung A necklace of pearls,\u2014and the bells rung, tower- And palace and cloister, with dancing, with prayer, Gave welcome to him who so swiftly came there, But the children, who slept, never knew he was near Till voices at morning called \u2018Happy New Year!\u201d il \u201c-\u2014 WHAT THE NEW YEAR MAY BRING.The New Year generally brings what the Old Year promised, though there are occasional miracles of surprise.As a rule, however, most people find that the new year chooses its way and events from the record of the year gone by.What comes to us, to be ours by right, is what we have lived up to.It is the next thing for us.Life is really a progress, not a number of disconnected happenings, and what we have we have earned.Some persons believe in the making of New Year's resolutions, others scoff, but, for the great majority it is safe to consider the despised resolutions a help.The Old Year has scarcely parted from us, so with its happenings and experiences still warm in our thoughts we are better able to decide upon the moulding of the next twelve months.In view of all this stock-taking we can look forward confidently to at least the achievement of a part of our plans, feeling that between now and next New Year's season at anyrate, something of what we can control will he accomplished, and in what we can\u2019t control we are only responsible for the way in which the various happenings are met.By resolutions, we start out on the new year with at least a goal ahead of us, and though we may find ourselves put off the road forcibly after we have started upon it, we may find, too, when we think we are farthest from our goal that we are joyfully standing just where we would be, led there unawares over the patiently trodden, unchosen, round-about road.It's not all our choosing and our willing that fulfils our New Year's resolutions.\u2014Priscilla M.Club * Cocktails THERE'S many a man who has built a rare reputation as a mixologist who lets us do his mixing for him and keeps his sideboard stocked with Club Cocktails.Made from better materials than a bar cocktail is apt to be.Mixed to measure;\u2014not to guess work\u2014asa bar cocktail always is.Softened by aging before bottling\u2014 as no bar cocktail can be.\" e Dealers G.P.Heublein & Bro., sf Props, Hartford \\ New York London WALTER R.WONHAM & SONS Montreal Hd a a Agents for Canada \\ OLEATE The Standard 171 ST.JAMES STREET + Rates for Advertising on application to the Publishers, and any other information cheerfully given.LB EH We will sell any of our Engravings.Prices given on application.Address, Art Department.WE ARE ALWAYS GLAD TO ACCEPT PHOTOGRAPHS OF INTERESTING CANADIAN SUBJECTS FOR REPRODUCTION.° We %' ROMANCE OF LOTTERIES.The first lottery, in the modern meaning of the world, was the \u201ctfôttu\u2019* of Florence, which held its first drawing on August 19th, in the year 1530.The first lottery in France was established about nine years later, and received the name of \u201cblangue,\u201d from the white tickets which indicated the blanks.Francis I.gave royal assent to the scheme, but collected a tax from it.The first lottery mentioned in English history was held in 1569, and the drawings took place at the western door of St.Paul's Cathedral.In Germany the first money lottery was held at Nurembery in 1699.Lotteries were held in America from earliest times, and the first Virginia settlers were upported from the profits of an Eng- ish lottery.Lotteries were abolished in England in 1826, and in France ten \u2018ears later.Why Don\u2019t You Get the Finest Ale?\u2014 PTR WEN \" he! \u2014 SOLVING THE PROBLEM OF SILENT FLIGHT.\u2014At the Hendon Aerodome recently, Mr.Willows (who be- | came famous by reason of his Cardiff-London flight some years ago) brought out for the first time his new airship, No.5.This machine is fitted with belt-driven swivel propellers and a new type of silencer.The combination of belt-drive and silencer, it is expected, will solve the problem of silent flight.At a recent flight it was impossible for those on the ground to detect any sound indicating the passage of an aerial craft, once the machine had gained an altitude of 100 feet.The above picture shows the airship in full flight, and a Caudron biplane above the envelope.(Copyright, Central News.)
