GENERATION OF DOLLS.

.Tapan-

Played with Only Once q Year in
Japan.
The most important festival of the
yea in the calendar of the Japanese
small girl is known as the dolls
feast" says the Boston Herald. 1t
may be a surprise to young Americans
to know that Japanese children may
not play with all their toys at all
times. Indeed, in the old families there
are families of dolls, hereditary pos
sessions which are kept in the fire.
proof Enclosure known as the go-down,
at the rear of the Japanese dwelling.
In the go-down are stored the family
treasures, anything too valuable to
risk the chances of fire. Family dolls
form part of the collection. Dollies that
once belonged to mother, aunt, grand
mother or even great-grandmother
are unpacked from the go-down year
after year on the dolls festival, to be
ready for the girls feast. 1t is easy to
understand why dolls last from gen.
Grafton to generation in Japan. If
they are only played with once a year
the danger of breakage is lessened to
the minimum. These dolls are an OBJ
ject lesson in costume, and are dressed
with strict regard to historical accu-
racy. The emperor and empress, prime
minister, cabinet officer, dancers, SOL
diers daimio Tor noble), servants, plain
citizens and even foreigners are care
fully dressed in appropriate costume.
The daimo doll is stif1y dressed. Its
black hair is arranged under a conical
cap tied under it's chin. RidA brocades
stiff with silver and gold thread form
part of the splendid costume. Great
pains are expended in making the
dolls festival a success.

A FORMER AMERICAN SAYS.
D0ublsd rhelr cul.lye.sa Land. pa

Doubled Their Cultivated Lands and
More Than Doubled Their stock.
The following letter, written by Mr..
John Cummings of Wetaskiwin, AL
berta, Canada, formerly of Washing
ton, to a friend in the United States,
is only one of a hundred similar cases,
and what was done by Mr.. Cummings
can more easily be done today by I'M
good, sober and Industrious farmer
who chooses to make his home in the
dominion.
Dear Sir: You want to know how /
got along since / came into Northern
Alberta. / am happy to inform you
that / am not ashamed to tell.
We located five miles northeast Of
Wetaskiwin; left Pennington, Wash,
on the 10th day Of May, driving all the
way. We had time to build our
log house the first fall, and to make
us comfortable for the family and
stock. We then built four stables, 1Sx
20 inside, SO that we could put every
thing inside them when the cold got
down to the ifties, and worked hard
getting up the stables, and got through
clubbing on the 1st of December; but,
to our surprise, we had no use for the
Stables only lOT Lie mllh COW anu Two
spans of horses. The balance of the
horses lived on the prairie all winter,
and took care of themselves. The doors
of two stables were left open for them
to go into in a cold time, but they
would not do it, but stayed out on the
prairie the coolest night we had and
looked as spry as crickets.
/ can go ten rods back Of my house
and count ten residents. l know all
of their circumstances. Every one of
them have doubled their cultivated
land. and doubled their animals, and
a great deal more. All of us are COM
p~aratively out of debt and an unusual
ly big crop to thresh and prospects OF
a fair price, and | expect we are as
we'll contented a lot of people as there
is to be found from Florida to the
Klondike.
My son bought two pounds of Irvine
to the acre, and when we started to
bind some barley we found that in
stead of taking two pounds to the acre,
it was taking nearly five pounds. Then
you ought to have seen him hitch up a
team and make for town for 100 pounds
more. l cannot say how it will thresh
All I can say is that it is well-headed
and takes an enormous amount OF
Irvine.

Feathered Songsters.
The ground is hidden beneath a
mass of jungle grass, sword grass and
fern, all bowed under a weight of mois-
ture, and this forest is dreary, damp
and cold, says the National Review. 1t
is hilly country and you hear the notes
of the different birds echoing and de-
ceiving you. They are all high, piping
sounds, save now and then when a
thud-thud like a thunderbolt seems to
strike the earth. 1t is a frightened wal
LARGO or wallaby, who is leaping, paus-
ing to listen, and leaping on again
over the green coating of the earth.
Now you have a Tyre bird before you.
Doubtless he is not more than twenty
yards ahead, for the sound seems to
rise under cover of your gun, which,
with very nervous hands, you are hold
ing before you. But that bird is a ras-
cally ventriloquist, knowing how to
pitch his voice and send it in any
direction. Never mind-he is singing,

and he will not hear you stealing on
him. He is disporting himself on a
mound of vegetable mold five or six
feet in diameter, which he has earthed
up. Around him are long grasses and
ferns, through which he has made
holes into which he can dart at viii,
to elude his enemies. Above is one
