tries.
Nowadays there is placed on The mar

of course Germany and Austria arc
not alone IA tic maling of toys, for
almost every nation has aoine speciality
of it's own France still ezceIs in the
| beauty and finish Of its dolls, and
Switzerland gives to toyland the best
wood carvings. Hungary gives the
children the bulk of the rubber balls

| the making Of wax dolls. America also
exccls in a few specialties and makes
more of the wooden-jointed animals

ELKS NEW HOME.
The Old Curtiss Homestead on West
 Main Street Is Purchased.

After searching for years for a suitable place on which to erect a home of their own. the Elks of this city have finally closed deal, by which they come into possession of the F. l.. Curtiss homestead on West Main street. They held the option for some weeks and to-day closed the bargain. The price agreed upon was $32,500 and this afternoon the lodge was offered s35,000 for the property but turned it down. The lodge now has quarters in the Holmes building on Grand street but the membership has grown so rapidly that the meet ing hall has been unable to hold all who desired to attend. Plans will be put under way at once for the erec- tion of modern Elks home that will compare favorably with any in the country. The site secured is one of the most desirable in the city and as soon as all the deeds are signed by the heirs the work of building will be commenced.
