HOME OF THE DOLL.

Methods o. the Ingenious ThuringTan
Toymakers.
Dollmakiug did not become conspic
uous as an industry in the Thuringian
mountains until the middle OF the nine
teenth century, when a citizen of Son
neberg brought from London doll
which was regarded as u great curiOsi
ty. It had come originally from China.
and its head, legs and arms were NOV
able. This furnished an inspiration to
the ingenious Thuringian toymakers
who promptly improved upon 1t. Wy
to that time they had made dolls onl'
of wood and leather, but soon they
evolved the wax head-at first crude
article. the wax being applied with a
brush but later brought to high per-
lection, thanks, it is said, to an acct.
dental discovery. A man engaged III
making the heads dropped a thimbF
into his pot Of fluid wax and on taking
1t out found it covered with a smooth
and beautiful coat Of the substance.
He was not slow to seize the idea, the
result being the adoption Of the dip
ping process, the final touches OF color
being put on with a camePs hair pen
ell. Later on the movable eyes an.
closing lids, to feign sleep, were added,
and the fleece of the Angora goat was
substituted for human hair in the max
ing of wigs, holding its color and cur
much better, the doll as 1t is known
today thus assuming its final and
highly artistic form.
Dressing the dolls after they are
made has become an industry in which
numbers of women and girls are EN-.
ployed. For the small, inexpensive
dolls little chemises, finished with
ruffie of lace around the neck and
arms, are made by hundreds and re.
quire no skilled labor for their con
struction.--Rene Bache in Circle.

BAYFIELD,
From the Press:

from thG RreSS:
Despite the hard times talk and
recent stringency along all CONNER
cial lines, the Harbor City is this
year enjoying one of it's best tourist
seasons. More summer visitors and
health seekers thronged to our little
city and it's adjacent resort, Made
line island, than is commonly sup
posed. A strong illustration as to
Just how large a number are here is
the experience last Sunday of the
hote. and resort propr' etors. Last
Sunday over fifty people were seated
to dinner at the Island View hotel
the majority of this number being
SUNNI 81 visitors. The Davis House
was unable to furnish accomoda-
tions for the large number of peopl.
who sought boarding place there
and the resorts at LaPointe are filled
TO overlooking. At the Mission all
the available cottages and rooms are
in use and all the cottages at La
Pointe proper are in use. At SAND
Island S. S. Fifield has about all ht
can handle and feeds not less than
forty at each meal. Many new cot
tages, which were built this season,
are now occupied and there is prom
Use that many more will be erected.
Some time ago the fact that the
owners of the Mission property in
tend to sell the property in lots,
leaked out and buyers are clamoring
for available lots on which they de-
sire to erect cottages. Undoubted-
ly next season will witness a large
growth in the tourist business here
and at the island and as the name of
our little city becomes more famous
we should do all we can to increase
it's attractions and Accommodations.
Mrs. Chas. Price left Wednesday
for Raspberry island after visiting
with her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Ed
Boutin, for some time.
! Mrs. Georgia Hellweg returned
last Saturday from Marquette and
Ishpeming. While away Mrs, He'll
veg attended the Bell-Molloy nup-
| tials.
The Bazaar given at the Wing
Opera House Wednesday and Thurs
day by the ladies of the Presbyterian
church was very largely attended
and was a most successful affair.
The Boys Band furnished music
both evenings and did themselves
proud.
We understand that August Steele
from Superior, Wisconsin, has pur-
chased twenty acres of land from

tentions of planting small fruits,

making this his home. Mr.. Steele
was very much surprised at the
fruit he saw here.
