Natural faced dolls for little girls

have the best Of Il. because their
machines will really fly, while the
girls dolls. no matter how charming
and wlnsome they are, cannot lift
their pretty heads TO see the flyers
even on their very own aviation field.
The flying machines rise TO heights

facturer's imagination is not a little
hysterical: but even the most con-

where by far the largest number of
all the dolls in the world come from,
was modelling a baby dolls face and
trying to get a laughing mouth. And
because he was a real artist, and be-
cause he knew real live babies very,
very well, he made the face too life

who said, just as soon as he saw It,
mo, no. 1t will never sell" and who
threw 1t scornfully into a corner with
other discarded efforts. But an

MAKE TAXATION JUST,

Nothing in our governmental sys-
TEN is as ineXcusable as the looseness
of our scheme of taxation. The opera
ton of the property tax law makes
the assessor an arbitrator. With him
rests almost altogether the amount
of taxes for each individual. If any
person assessed wishes to evade the
law, it is possible to do it by changing
his place of residence.
Carnegie's assessment of taxes on
$5,00O,OO0 worth of property in New
York City is said to be gift to the
city. Other rich men are practically
immune from taxation. And yet, the
DOOR man does not escape. The arbi-
trary character of this law alone is
an argument against it.
Nothing is as unpopular as taxation.
If it were possible, taxpayers would
gladly abolish taxation in any form.
The love Of country does not include
the pocketbook, which has first place
always in the hearts OF many citizens.
However, the present system of tax
alton must change. 1t is inadequate
for present needs.
Just what substitute eventually will
be adopted is difficult to determine.
The single tax for land the graduated
inheritance tax for swollen fortunes,
the income tax for persons of relative
ly large salaries, or combination of
all three is possible. Taxation should
operate with fairness to ALL

Holiday Decorations.

| indispensable for holiday decora-
tions are the ornaments Of glass and
tinsel which are used not only to
adorn trees, but to lend gayety to the
aspect of dinnertables and house inter-
iors at Yuletide, and immense guam
titles of them are sold each season.
They all come from one place
the village Of Lausha, in the Thurn-
gian Mountains. in Germany. That
region is the veritable Toyland-the
real home of Santa Claus. Vast guam
titles of Christmas playthings, mostly
| OF wood or papier-mache, are made
there by the peasants, who do the
work in their homes; and a rather
curious feature of the industry is the
way in which it is split up and spec
ialized, one village turning out moth
ing but hobby-horses. another produc-
ing only Noah's Arks, and so on.
Thus it comes about that the popu-
lation of Lausha devotes it's attention
mainly to the production of ornaments
for Christmas trees-thOugh it also
manufactures enormous numbers Of
glass eyes. This little town turns out
not only great numbers of such eyes
for human beings, but also glass eyes
for taxidermists' use. for dolls, and
fer toy animals. 1t is the worlds prin-
cipal center for this industry.
The chief object sought in the max
ing OF tree ornaments, Of course, is
glitter Most of them are of glass,
blown into fantastic and often beauti-
full shapes-various pigments and
metals being employed to lend addi-
|tional brilliancy.
The people Of Lausha are all glass
blowers. They do the work in their
homes, but the rough glass is provided
by big dealers who contract for the
purchase of the wares thus produced.
Among other things, the workers turn
out incalculable numbers of the famil-
lar glass marbles so dear to every
childish heart-theSe being made in
moulds from long sticks of glass in
which several colors are combined.
Unfortunately, glass-making is
very unhealthful occupation, and the
people of Lausha literally give their
lives for Santa Claus, few of them
surviving long enough to reach old
age.
