THE PARIS TOY SHOW.
Last Month--Famous Men and We
men Exhlht in L.


Formerly In France orders for toys
we're taken by the big firms and were
filled almost entirely at the homes
OF the employees, but of late years the
increased use OF machinery has done
away with the necessity for so many
labcrers, and scores Of old hands
have been dismissed.
They, knowing no other trade, set
up for themselves and of course with
their crude tools were not able to
produce the same grade Of article
as was turned out by the factories,
and for ten years or more they were
In deplorable situation, until at last
they appealed to Project of Police
Lepine. AS a result of this appeal the
kindly disposed official inaugurated
an exhibition Of toys to be held an
nually In the Tuilleries Gardens, in
the heart of the fashionable shopping
district.
AT the first exhibition eight years
ago there were only 80 exhibits, but
now the huge hall is filed to over
flowing, and temporary buildings
have this year been erected on the
outside. While M. Lepine has helped
the independent worker as best he
can, all their exhibits show the fulfil
ity OF trying to rival the perfected
factory made article with hand labor.
The materials are poor, the workman
ship crude, and there is no compensa-
ton by way Of originality in ideas.
For one entire month, says Town
and Country, the independent toymak-
ers can show their wares and take
orders, and they have the chance to
prove that individual ingenuity is SUI
perior to corporation owned talents.
At the last exhibition there we're any
number of fantastic airships, and the
visitor passed by rows Of peasant
dolls in gay colored costumes of the
different provinces, lines of soldiers
drawn up on green baize fields with
papier mache backgrounds.
The most original and characters
tically Paris toys of all we're the
wooden caricatures of kings and po-
liticians. The president of the Unit
ed States also finds a place among
them. These wooden monarchs are all
dressed in the uniforms of their orig
inals and some of their caricatures
are amazingly clever.
Besides these toy mechanics a
number of noted people have placed
the result of their own handiwork in
several Of Lepin's exhibitions. Thus
the Duchesse Dues showed a game
with three tumbling clowns; Loie
Fuller exhibited dancer propelled
over a smooth steel floor by hidden
magnet; Gerome, the artist, contri.
buted series of overwhelmingly com.
ic dolls cheaply made and cast in pa.
pier mache. Falguiere, the sculptor,
sent an articulate monkey, sign OF
the times, and go kinds Of flying
birds, butterflies and tiny navigable
balloons.
The Boer war is illustrated in Is
different mechanical ways. Every de
vice, however, finally showed the
Boer victorious.

The public schools receive from
time to time more or less criticism,
which is doubtless on occasions de-
served, but, contends the Boston
Transcript, is quite as frequently be-
slowed because they are public insti.
buttons and therefore considered fair
game by those who help to support
them. But President Eliot's tribute to
them at the reunion of the English
high graduates last night is testimony
on as high authority as the country
affords, not only that they do good
work but among the secondary schools
the best work OF course there are
exceptions to all rules, but his report
ed statement that the boys who do
the best work at college come from
the public schools" seems to be I'm.
eQuiyocal Next in order he rates the
endowed schools and last the private
schools, and this, he declares. "is a
very encouraging result for democra.
cy." He has formed this opinion in
college examination tests not only at
entrance but subsequently. and more
convincing testimony it would be i'm.
possible to obtain It is the duty Of
the public schools to keep striving for
improvement, but it is gratifying to
learn that they already stand in the
forefront of our educational system.

HOW to prevent Billousness,

Few persons know that most attacks of
Biliousness are due to cold settling in
the bile ducts or tubes. The ducts be-
come inflamed. congested and filled with
mucous The bile Is damned up in the
liver ard soon enters the circulation and
the patient soon becomes sallow and
1aundiced Often the bile flows into the
stomach, and so initiates that organ that
acute Indigestion sets in and the patient
is said to have Cholera Morbus Bilious
ness can be prevented by using Rydale's
liver Tablets which have a specific slim
ulating effect on the bile tubes. One dose
will discharge the muscous and few
doses will entirely subdue the inflamma-
ton and drive the cold from the system
Rydale's Liver Tablets are sold on a
guarantee. J. w, O'Sullivan. Burlington.
