NUREMBERG, Germany, Nov,
9.-This great city is the capital
of Toyland. Few children in the
United States, who have so many
dolls, toy soldiers, toy engines
and toy animals to play with,
know where Toyland really is.
There are thousands on thous-
ands of little German children who
make these dolls and things for
the Christmas trees of other lands.
They work all of IL hours a day,
and to make children happier
than themselves have a merry
Christmas.
Just now the busiest season
Toyland ever knew is over. All
the dolls are asleep in their
crates, and some are on big
ocean liners bound for New York
and western cities.
Children have often wondered
why it is that the toy locomotives
they play with are painted in
such bright colors. Locomotives
in the United States are not paint
ed that way. But the German To-
comotives are.
They are red. yellow, green
and other fancy colors. So the
Germans when they make toy To-
comotives paint them up the way
their own locomotives are.
There are several other smaller
towns in Toyland. One of them is
Sonneburg, near here, where moth
ing but dolls is made. First a
workman scoops big lot of saw
dust into a vat full of boiling wa
ter. He stirs the boiling wood for
a while, then draws off the wa
ter and puts the boiled sawdust
into a machine. Here it is ground
up tine and mixed with paper and
rags.
It's funny stuff to make a doll
out of; don't you think so? After
the pulpy mass is all ground up,
he puts it in a second machine,
and out at the other end comes
bodies, arms and legs of dolls, in
different sizes, all separate.
Then little holes are punched
In the arms and legs, and young
women and girls put wire in the
holes and give dolly everything
except a head.
At another part of the factory
the heads are made. First a white

A demonstration of the efficacy
and entire harmlessness of poslam,

skin of infants who are tortured
with rashes, chafings, scaly and
crusted humors and other skin
aggravations. Its effect Is sooth-

skin heals and ia quickly restored

In the various forms of skin
troubles in both infants and adults
poslam produces beneficial results
from the first application. Eczema,
acne, herpes, rash, letter. ETC.,
yield readily to its remarkable
curative properties. Occasional ap-
plications will quickly Danish pim-

LATEST NEWS, FROM
CAPITOL OF TOYLAND|

I paste of the same kind of clay
that dishes are made of is poured
into a mold. When 1t hardens 1t
is baked in an oven. Each mold
is exactly like a little girls face
A man takes little pieces of
glass and heats them into the
right shape for the dolls eyes.
When the eyes are cool, he paints
them blue and brown and gray,
just like the eyes Of real baby
girl. Then a wig is pasted on top
of the dolls head, and the whole
head is fastened on the body.
Girls should not take their dol
lies out in the rain bareheaded,
because the paste will melt and
dolly's hair will come off.
Sonneburg has one big room
where thousands of dolls are
dressed. Women and girls have
sewing machines and make the
dresses just like they would
make clothes for a real live baby.
Skirts and petticoats, and waist
and gowns, and stockings, all are
made and dressed-by the women.
1t is great sight to see them
putting clothes on hundred dolls
at once.
These people who make dolls
are paid poorly. They work all
day and earn from so cents to
I$1.25. Even the men, who make
the heavier toys, get only about
SIP to SIG a week.
Dolls are made here for Chi
nese children, and also for the
boys and girls of Australia. 1t
takes SO long for the dolls to be
shipped there that the Toyland
people work all the year round
at their trade. Chinese children
don't like the American kind of
doll, with a goats hair wig and
pretty dresses.
Soldiers, rugged out in bright
uniforms and carrying little pop
guns, are what the Chinese chill
dren want. They make their own
dressed dolls of other kinds.
The Teddy bears, Caruso mon
keys, polar bears and lions are
made in Toyland, too. The fin
est ones have real furry skins and
cost lots of money.
Toyland last year sent over TO-
600 tons of toys to the United
States from around here, and
more than half that much to Eng
Hand.
The largest factory here has
5000 people working in it. All
these have a lot of fairy tales they
believe, and they think of the
fairy tales and toys they make,
and sing songs, and are happy for
all their long hours of work.
