JAPANESE DOLLS
FOR BOYS AND GIRLS.

When a daughter is born in the
home of a Japanese family a pair Of
images, called hina, are purchased for
her, and with these dolls she plays
till she is grown to an age when it is
not considered necessary for her to
play with dolls any longer. When she
is married these dolls are carried with
her to her husbands house, and are
religiously saved so that her own
daughters may have them afterward,
and add to the collection as she grows
up.
These dolls are made of carved wood
or enameled clay, and are made in
the image of the Mikado and his wife
or some OF the mobiles of the prov

The greatest day for the little boys
is the fifth day of the fifth month,
This is the Feast of Flags. Previous
to this day there are great displays
of images of heroes, warriors, COM
manders, generals, soldiers, famous
wrestlers. etc.
A set of these toys is bought for
every boy born into a Japanese fam
lily. and with the little girls collec-
ton the Japanese children have a Gu
rious collection of images that bring
to their minds the stories of the he
roes of the ancient Japan.

They had begun to grow while he
still was a caterpillar, but they are
far from complete.
To protect these organs until they
are full grown, a clear fluid oozes out
and flows over ALL hardening into a
firm, transparent case. This is the
chrysalis
II is within this case that, in about
three weeks time. the butterfy's body
is formed.
1t is worth walking ten miles to see
this sixth transformation scene when
the nerves send their first messages
through the body of the insect, and
limbs begin to move, and the perfect
butterfly. rendering it's transparent
shroud, is born again, slowly Initiating
it's new body, spreading its wings to
dry in the sun and soaring away TO
sip the flowers and to find a mate.
II is by the rarest of chances that
the beautiful sight can be actually
witnessed in wood or field, but by the
use of a breeding case this and hum
dreds of other insect transformations
may be seen.
Nothing can be easier to make than
a breeding case, and it costs little
more than the time required to build
it,
Get the glass globe part of lam
tern or the largest lamp chimney you
can find and a flower pot with earth
in it.
Cover the top of the lantern glass
or lamp chimney with mosquito net
ting, put it on the soil in the pot, and
you have about as good a breeding
case as is made.
When you find caterpillars or the
larvae (young) Of any insect feeding
on a plant, transplant the whole thing
plant and insects if possible-to
your flower pot.
Clap your lantern globe or lamp
chimney over it and your observation
apparatus is complete.
If you cannot get the plant into
your flower pot, fill up the latter with
wet sand and stick a portion of the
food plant into it. This, of course,
will have to be renewed from time 10
time.
1t is a good plan to cover the soil
in the breeding cases with moss, as
this tends to keep the soil moist. 1t
should never be allowed to become
quite dry, although it must by no
means be damp.
If many large specimens are to be
kept, a good breeding case can be
made from a box with a pane of glass

sides covered with wire gauze or with

THE FOG BOUND LIGHT
OF VLADIV0ST0K,

A few miles north OF Vladivostok Is
mountain that descends abruptly in
to the sea. On it, about 200 feet above
the water, the Russian government
has established a lighthouse for the
guidance of the ships that steer south
along the coast, bound for the port
| of Vladivostok from the Gulf of Tar
tary and the Okhotsk sea.
The lighthouse is the subject of an
international practical joke. The sail
ors of all nations play it regularly on
| the lighthouse keeper, and the latter,
although he knows it, cannot help
! himself, on account of the nature of
the joke.
Owing to certain peculiar natural
| conditions, the mountain on which the
| lighthouse stands is wreat hed in dense
| fogs often when the ocean below is
perfectly clear. Thus it happens that
the sailors can see the base of the
while the lighthouse keeper can see
nothing.
| Naturally, when he sees the fog all
around him, he sets his fog signals
going by ringing a great bell at fire.
| quent intervals. So for long while
the crews of passing ships used to
| laugh when they steamed by the hid
| Qen lighthouse ana nedfQ the lOn6ly
| keeper patiently ringing his fog bell
while they sailed over a clear, mistless
| sea.
Then they began to play a prank
on him. 1t is his duty, when he hears
vessels sounding their fog signals, to
reply with a great steam siren that is
maintained in the lighthouse as a fog
horn. So the captains of passing ships,
hearing the bell ringing high up on
the mountain sides, toot their steam
whistles as if they. too, were in the
| fog. Then the poor lighthouse keeper
gets busy Immediately, and begins to
work his siren furiously, keeping it
up till the ship has passed from hear
| ing.
There is hardly a ship that enters
| Vladivostok that has not been put up
to this joke, and as opportunities for
jest are not common in the Siberian
seas, it is likely that the lighthouse
keeper on the mountain will continue
to have the trick played on him as
long as the fogs wreathe his lonely
eyrie.

A Real Indian
Story of Hiawatha
How He Made the Great Wampum
Belt.

Hiawatha was not an invention of
the poet Longfellow. He was real
parsonage who lived many years ago,
long before the discovery of America
by Columbus. and taught the Indians
many wonderful things.
AS the long years have rolled by, a
mass of legend and fable has grown sc4
about the great Indians history, and
from it Longfellow selected the stories
which he made into poetry in his cec-
brated work that bears Eiawatha's
name.
One OF the many fairy stories told
among the Indians concerning Hia-
watha is that which recounts how he
made the great Wampum belt, the pos
session of which so firmly bound to-
gether the five tribes of the great Iro-
quois confederacy.
The five tribes, or Five Nations, as
they came to be called. consisted of
the Mohawks, Senecas, Cayugas One
idas and Onondagas. These tribes lived
in what is now the state of New York,
and their villages and hunting grounds
extended from the Hudson River to
Lake Erie.
The different tribes were at frequent
war with each other and Hiawatha
sought how he should bind them to-
gether and make of them one nation,
thus stopping the horrors of their al
most constant strife.
Hiawatha made many Journeys
through the country of the Five Ma
tions, preaching to them and urging
upon them the necessity of getting to-
gether and dwelling in peace with one
another if they ever expected to pros
per and grow powerful. but he had
hard work for a long time making them
see things as he saw them.
Finally however, as he was making
trip in the territory of the Mohawks.
he had an experience which convinced
the Indians that he was right.
AS the Indians tell the story, Hia-
