Originality and broad conception of

Apple snowballs make pretty dish

A woman who has made consider
able success Of toy suggesting and de-
signing in the employment of Il large
manufacturing house says that here as
elsewhere the first necessity is to keep
up with the times. 1t was not II week
before EloudikO dolls Of II dozen sorts
were for sale. Every little girl was sup
posed to want an Eskimo baby dressed
in rabbit sims, and her brother was i'm
agincd to be pining for a miniature
slcdgr drawn by miniature dogs to tal;o
it's place il his endless procession Of
carts and trucks and drays.
The inventor Of one variety Of kl0n-
dixie babies has told me how she mar
Egtad her dolls. She is salcsWCman at
the toy counter IF IL department store.
One day customer asked if silo could
recommend anything positively new for
u family of children who already had
"uverythin~." " Eilo Lad nothing i'll
stocl; to Gil TIE bill. That night at
home she lound tho littlo people Of tho
family playing at going to the Klon-
dixie. - \ thought came to hen, and she
sat up lato Gr-aaiig couple Of EsIii-
mo babies. These She took next morn
ing to lie head Of her department. He
refereed them To the buyer and the buy.
CT to II maIuiucturcr. III two or three
days they were on the market. The
salpswaman received q modest sum, but
one satisfactory to her FOR her sugges-
tion.
The toy designer before quoted says
that common fault Of toymakers, but
one into which women arc less apt to
fall than men, is the marketing of too
complicated articles. 4 good many of
the steam, gas and electrical engines
and other pieces of machinery presented
to enterprising small boys anxious to
see "wheels 90 wound are considered
by tho small boys nlammas, justly or
uniustly, too dangerous to be exploited
in the nursery.
The opposite fault Of offering toys
good only to look at is even more fatal
TO success. Children want things to
work with, and the especial advantage
of the woman who makes business Of
supplying this want ought to lie in her
presumably more intimate knowledge

| Of small folks tastes and temperaments
than can be acquired by men. There are
q thousand and one infantile instincts
to be studied to this end, and women
should be the readiest to interpret them
with suitable toys.
For example, woman who has no
children Of her own but whose devices
for amusing other peoples babies have
made her the most sought after person
in her neighborhood was appealed to to
suggest something to while away the
long hours Of little girl convalesclng
slowly from a tedious Illness The re.
sourceful woman visited the child and
found her pulling flowers in pieces and
looking at the different parts with ap-
parent interest. The sight suggested
botanical blocks, which have since made
the youngsters of that vicinity look up
on sickness as something almost to be
desired.
These amateur blocks are not big
squares, but slips perhaps half an inch
thick, on which are painted petals, pis.
learns every part Of the flower, its name
and the general construction of the
blossom. The girl for whose benefit the
idea was developed delights in putting
together the big purple pansies, pitcher
plants, ladyslippers and some of the
great orchids that make a fine effect.
These blocks have required some me-
chanical skill and considerable ingenu-
ity to unite strength with fidelity to the
original models in their making.
There is probably more money in a
game or a trick that makes a hit than
in any other toy. The person who in
vents a taking thing in this line and
who is able to keep hold of it and to
make and sell for his own benefit may
count himself lucky. AS general
thing, however, the women who have
toys to market use much the same
methods as those adopted by the design
ers of Christmas cards-that is to say,
they submit their ideas, accompanied
SO far as possible by model, to the toy
manufacturers.
Sometimes toy dealer will give an
order for novelty that promises to
please the public to the person who
brings in the original model. Iu several
instances that could be cited women
have opened up for themselves in this
way profitable lines of business
| In one instance woman at her wits
end for something to contribute to a
church fair made number Of copies Of
simple toy she had contrived to please
her own children. The toys sold SO well
and attracted SO much notice that the
inventors husband afterward manufac-
tured them on larger scale and realized
a profit.
New toys are brought out as far as
possible in season for the Christmas
market, and this is fact that women
with ideas should bear in mind.

A DAUGHTER OF INDIANA.
Miss Mcb CulbertsoD, the Young and Hand
some Sculptor.


The state of Indiana has sent into the
world and into the fierce g1aro of pub
licity many proud and worthy sons and
daughters brave soldiers and brilliant
statesmen - men and women whose
names are emblazoned on the arch Of
fame and shine brightly in the world Of
art and literature. And now in these
later years from the grand old county Of
Wayne, which gave to the world and
lis state the illustrious Oliver p. Nor
ton, a daughter of Indiana has come
forth, strong in her youth and beauty
and God given genius. Meb Culbertson
is the only daughter of the late Dr. j.
W. Culbertson, the eminent oculist.
Her mother is the daughter of Major
Anthony Hilborn, celebrated British
officer. Mrs. Culbertson prominently
figures in the "Book of English Beau
ties' along with the Duchess Of Suther-
land and other lovely and highborn
women of her day. The one great sor-
row Of Miss Culbertson's life was the
sudden death of her father, whose in
separable companion she had been from
her babyhood, and III the intense desire
of her life to do honor to her fathers
name and country she has devoted all
the energy and resource Of her great and
fertile brain to her noble art-the art of
soul pture.
Miss Culbertson has travelled exten.
sively abroad in pursuit of her favorite
study, and much of her time has been
spent in the Julian schools. She has eX-
hibited in the Paris salon and the acad
emies OF America. One of her great
works is a heroic head in bas-relief of

A FIELD FOR WOMEN.
HINTS TO THOSE WHO WANT TO
MAKE MONEY.

The Domestic Manufacture Of Toys IL
Enormous and Is Constantly Growing.
Devices For Amusing the Little Folk.
The Christmas Market.
Why do not women reap a larger
share Of the profit there is in the inven-
tion of toys: Children's playthings are
imported in great quantities, especially
from Germany and Switzerland. AS the
old rhyme has it:
The children Of Nurnberg take pleasure in
making
What the children Of New York take pleasure
in breaking.
But the domestic manufacture Of toys
is enormous also and is constantly grow
ing. Every Christmas season the mar.
ket is flooded with toys, old and new,
ingenious and the reverse, and genu-
inc novelty is hailed with delight by
the dealers. Where should the novel
ties come from if not from the brains of
the mothers and aunts and big sisters
whose inventive talents are kept on the
rack day after day to provide occupation
for restless little ones? That larger
part of the demand is net met in this
way is due i'll part without doubt to the
fact that women who have children to
amuse are too busy to market the ideas
they may evolve. Usually they are not
under the necessity of doing so. But wo-
men who are looking for money max
ing occupation and who have gift for
the entertainment of children ought to
find in the invention of salable toys a
field where their sex will help them.

helpful suggestion: a few feet Of com.

OH to the water faucets in the sink and

The Mckinley strike.

A dispatch from Wilmerding, Penn, to
the New York World, under date of May
10Th, presents some interesting food for
thought. 1t is as follows:
six hundred angry and disappointed
workingmen, who parsded and labored
and voted for Mckinley six months ago,
believing that he would be, as he was
heralded, the advance agent of prosper
ity," last night tore down the the picture
OF the'presldent from the walls of their
club room. 1t had hung there in al
honored position. They stamped it IN
der foot and tore it into shreds.
Seven months ago so strong vas their
belief and 80 fervent their desire to aid
in McKinley's success that they formed
themselves in clubs and purchased uni
forms to wear in psrades. When the
famous parade took place in Canton
Ohio, in honor OF the Republican cand-
date these workmen paid their own ex-
penses to the town so as to take part in
the demonstration. Now they bitterly
regret what they did, and no words are
strong enough to express their feelings.

Norwegian voting Inv,

The Odelsthing, the Norwegian equiva-
lent of lower house, says the New York
Evening Post has passed the bill grant
ing the right of franchise to Norwegian
citizens temporarily residing abroad. II
| the lsgthing indorses this action, Norway
will enjoy the distinction of having the
most liberal voting laws of any country
in the world. Although the bill has in
view chiefly Norwegian sailors, its pro-
visions are not restricted to this class, as
was at first supposed. Its main features
are az follows: The voter must first
prove that he has not been away from
Norway longer than three years before
the election day, and the ballot must not
be cast longer than three months before
the election. The ballot need not con-
tain the names of candidates, but may
be made out in the name of the party.
By all but members of crews of Nor
wegian ships the voting must be in the
presence of the local Norwegian consul,
the O. cepted class voting on board ship
before the captain. This would seem to
exclude all Norwegian sailors on foreign
vessels who are unable to appear before
a consul within the prescribed time. 1t
is not AT all certain the bill will pass the
upper house, as considerable opposition
has arisen because Of the increased ia
ciIities for fraudulent voting offered by it.

4 straw berry Pest.

Throughout the straw berry patches OF
Wasco county, a strange pest has made
its appearance this season, and has been
very troublesome to the patches of
Winans Bros, three miles above The
Dalles says the Times Mountaineer. 1t
is small green caterpillar that devours
the leaves and consequently seriously in
lures the plant. Some time since Mr..
Schanno sent n1mber of the pests to
Prof. Cordley, of the State Agricultural
college, asking for an opinion upon the
pest and suggestions regarding treatment
therefor, and received this reply: "The
small green caterpilars you send are
larvi OF the strawberry leaf roller tphox-
Optes coneptana). Last year it was re.
ported in the Walla Walla valley, aud
now it appears in your vicinity. The
cateipillars now present will soon pupat e,
and will then issue a rather beautiful lit
tie moth, which will deposit eggs for
another brood of caterpillars that will
feed upon the strawberries in July and
August. Ii the first brood is as bad as
you say. the second brood will be pretty
serious. There are two remedies. Per
haps the best is to NOW the vines as soon
as the crop is harvested, and when they
are dry burn them. The second remedy
is to spray the vines az soon as the sec
ond brood begins to work"

THE "W.dR LORD" HOOTED.

II Emperor William of Germany does
not recede from his present stiff necked
policy of exclusiveness, as illustrated by
the snub given the public at the stylish
spring parade, he may find that even
Germans may be driven to something
very much resembling physical revolt
At the late aprade, when the emperor and
empress were coming from the field, the
people booted at the bumptious "war
lord, and gave him to understand that,
even his alleged sscroscsnt personality
cannot be removed from the shafts of
adverse criticism.
Williams father and grandfather were
never hooted by the populace and the
incident is suggestive that the public are
getting just little weary of military and
police despotism and Russian style OF
repression under the forms of constitu,
tionsl liberty. The people at the seat of
the German empire would much rather
have liberty of the press, liberty of asso-
citation, freedom from military conscrip-
tion than military pageants and ostenta-
ton of claims to the medieval conceit of
divine rightism.
