PROCESS OF MAKING DOLLS
Important Industry That Is Conducted
In the German Town of
Weimar.
Consul Will L. LowTie of Wei
mar furnishes the following infor
mation concerning the different
stages by which dolls are manufac
tured in that important German
city. He says:
Only the assembling of the vari
ous parts of the dolls, painting the
bodies, arms and legs, and sticking
on the wigs is done at the factory.
Each figure passes through about 20
hands before it reaches completion,
the raw material being taken to the
homes of the work people and then
returned to the factory. The work
is all specialized, and each time a
new process takes place in the evolu
tion of a doll it is done by certain
employes who are more or less ex
perts. Bodies are made mostly of
paper, although kid is also used ex
tensively. They are molded at the
homes or stamped out in heavy iron
molds at factories devoted entirely
to this feature. All sizes of dolls
are made, from a few inches in
lnnrrt-L vnnitr. f III, „

hair is Angora wool from England,
which also supplies the rubber (elas
tics), stretched to keep the arms and
legs in place. Styles change each
year and the manufacturers must
keep in touch with the modes.
ABOUT VEGETABLES.
It is safe to say that it is rather a
new discovery that vegetables are en
dowed with qualities which are
transmitted to those who feed upon
the kindly fruits of the earth. These
qualities are physical, moral and in
tellectual. If we desire to develop
the reasoning powers and to endow
the equilibrium of the mind with
calmness and concentration we must
eat potatoes, but we must at the
same time remember that overindul
gence in that succulent root may
produce apathy and indifference.
Carrots produce good temper and
are strongly recommended to peevish
and bilious people. French beans—
; the haricot vert of our French friends
—lead to day-dreaming and artistic
j thoughts and sentiments, and no
better food for authors and journal
ists can be found.—Lady’s Pictorial.
GOT FULL WEIGHT.
“Sir,” says the aggrieved cus
tomer, approaching the bookseller,
“I have called to express my opinion
of your business methods.”
‘‘What is wrong?” deferentially
asked the bookseller.
“I bought a set of Shakespeare
from you last year. It weighed 14
pounds. Yesterday I ordered a
duplicate set for my son’s library,
and it only weighs 13 pounds and
nine ounces. I’d have you under
stand, sir, that there is a city or
dinance against short weights.”
Thoroughly humbled, the book
seller made up the shortage with
seven ounces of miscellany.—Ex
change.
IN FLATLAND.
vt_
Doctor—Most extraordinary! I hear
a sort of musical tune under the flat
of your shoulder bone.
Patient—I think, doctor, It must be
on the flat above.
DANCING GOOD EXERCISE.
Mr. Gilbert, speaking to the stu
dents in the summer school at Har
vard college, recently, said that the
waltz was the typical American
dance, but that all dancing had de
teriorated within the last few years.
Dancing he considers the best form
of exercise, as all others become tire
some, while music makes the dance
a pleasure, and besides the hygienic
effects are of the best. Of course
dancing is only good when not car
ried to excess.
CRUEL.
“Sometimes,” said the press hu
morist, “I think my jokes are rotten.
I s’pose that’s my modesty.”
“No,” explained r friend, “that’s
your common sense.”—Kansas City
Jouoial. I
How I Saved My Boya.
Mrs. Ida H. Gotisey, In Southern
Ruralist says:
I want to tell you of my home and
why I moved from town to the country
Some years ago my husband, a rail
road man, died in a neighboring
State. I was left a widow with eight
little ones, six boys and two girls.
Being far from the land of my birth
and what kindred I had, I decided to
return to my old home, a thriving city
of South Carolina. My husband own
ed some town property at this place,
and fortunately had a house untenant
ed at the time. So, after settling my
affairs, I moved my family there.
Only those who have experienced It
know what a sad thing it Is for the
widowed mother and grieving wife,
who has to gather her little brood
around her and make a new nest. A
new nest, a new home, alas! where
there is no father to love, guide aright
and protect from all harm. I resolved
with God’s help to raise my little ones
to be a credit to that dear father who
had gone on before.
With a heavy heart. I tried to be
cheerful and make home plesant for
my children. My eldest son went to
work in an office, and the others, with
the exception of my two youngest,
were sent to a good school. A year or
two passed and my second son decid
ed that he, too, would go to work. Of
all things he wanted to farm. Just
think of it, a seventeen-year-old boy,
reared In town, where we could not
have a garden. “How can you farm,
son,” I asked, “with no experience and
no one to teach you? To please him
I rented a few acres near town, which
he planted in corn and peas. Our
home plot he put in cotton, potatoes
and vegetables. I will not go into de
tails, but with the aid of a good farm
Journal he made his first crop—a fair
crop of corn, fine pea hay, a bale of
cotton, fifty bushels of potatoes and
plenty of vegetables. This success in
a small way fired his ambition, so I
boguht a small farm seven miles from
town.
That year proved a bad crop year,
still he made expenses and cleared a
little money. In the meantime I found
that my little boys at home were
growing away from me. In spite of
my efforts to prevent, they were get
ting in bad company and would go on
the streets. When I could induce my
boys to stay home the neighbor boys,
good and bad, dropped in. I soon
realized that unless some decisive
step was taken my boys were In fair
way to be ruined. But what to do I
could not decide. One day, while at
the farm, I kept thinking, “What can
I do to save my boys?”
As I sat there my idle gaze wander
ed over the quiet fields and green
woods. All at once it flashed into my
mind that here was the solution to my
problem. Then and there I decided
to sell my home in town and build
me a nice home on the farm. My
friends protested, “You will be ruin
ed," “You can’t farm,” “You won’t like
the country.” Every one tried to dis
courage me, but I kept to my deter
mination.
Today I have a nice home of nine
rooms, ten foot verandas with colonial
columns. It is funished and as com
fortable as any city home. My child
ren have a new piano, graphophone etc.
I am not making barrels of money,
but am doing fairly well with the farm.
I am running a three-horse farm this
year and am Independent of labor as
I have four boys large enough to work.
I have a fine vegetable garden and
an acre in sweet potatoes. I have
seven fine hogs and a pair of register
ed Berkshires to raise from, and as
fine a mule colt as there is in the
country. I make plenty of milk and
butter and have an occasional beef to
sell. Have lots of nice chickens, flocks
of geese and ducks, turkeys, etc. I
in,. nmmfvvr Pmintrv life T thinlr
the finest In the world. But better
than all, I find that my little boys
are mine again. There is no mischief
for them to get into. When there is no
farm work to do, they go fishing or to
that haven of delight for small boys,
the "wash hole.” Some days they hunt
berries and plums. I am never wor
ried about them, nor wonder what they
are doing. When night comes every
little sleepy head is ready for bed.
It is such a comfort to have them all
to myself, as it were. We have a fine
school near us and this fall I want to
send my eldest daughter to college.
The little boys have their friends from
town occasionally. They enjoy this.
.They work cheerfully and seem to
take as much interest in every thing
as I do myself.
So I may say that home in the coun
try has proved a success in every sense
of the word. I am thankful for the
sweet privilege of making a country
home.
The United States has 15,000 “new
farmers,” who have graduated from
agricultural colleges. The first Amer
ican experiment station was opened
in 1875 by Prof. W. O. Atwater. Since
then fifty other stations have been
established and the United States gov
ernment spends 111,000,000 annually
on its agricultural department.
Why wouldn’t a movement to utilize
some of the many acres of corn stalks
that go to waste every year for pa
per pulp, Instead of devastating the
forests, be in line with the movement
for the conservation of our natural re
sources? Without a doubt, in years
to come we will see every pound of
plant tissue not made use of for feed
on the farm go to a paper mill.
We do not sympathize with those
who sell their choice fat chickens to
the huxster and eat tat pork and
tough beefst^ the rear round.
