and ivory in many strange and beauti-
ful forms. There are papier mache
dishes inlaid with mother of pearl. GU

tries, interesting photos of Siamese
scenes and odd pictures of the dragon
mythology OF buddhism.
The prominent feature of the agri-
cultural display is a pyramid of pre-
served fruits, which reveal wonderful
patience on close inspection. Here are
squashes cut into small pieces, which
have been carved into roses and other
flower forms Sweet potatoes have been
cut into roses and erystallized. Roses
themselves have been crystallized and
retain their odor.

specimen being a mammoth piece of
teak wood, the largest ever exported.
1t is feet long, 5 feet and inches
wide, and inches thick.

Siam. Among these are the bullock
carriages, the joss chairs used by priests
in carrying idols, the blue chairs for
weddings and other ceremonies, the
green chairs for officials, and the sew
