A Novel Euchre Party.

This pretty card party was conduct
ed like cotillion and was a great
success. It was given for 40 guests
and the tables were scattered through
out the large rooms Of spacious
country house. In the first place each
guest found her place at table with
three others by means Of souvenir
name card.
When all had arrived and were
seated at the table the hostess was

made every one feel more comfort

began. four games were to be played
and the losers were the ones to move
going to table for favors, these they
gave to the winners at the other
tables. who were taken to the table
of the loser and thus they met an
entirely new set of players. There

Try this for jolly outdoor amuse-
ment. 1t was used at party given
in the country but 1t may be adapted
to everyday play. At this party the
hostess told the children to shut their
eyes tight until they heard bell
ring. then they were to open their
eyes and follow closely the paper trail.
A basket had been filled with finely
clipped paper, this was strewn In
circles. squares and most intricate
maxes: sometimes It would apparent

there would be a banana, an orange.

Where Our Dolls Are Made

small town of Sonneberg, in the
Thuringian forest, alone produces ar
ticles for the amusement of children
to the value of $4,000 yearly.
German ladies are expert doll
dressers. and there is a yearly Christ
mas exhibition Of dolls at Berlin. A
great deal is made Of the Berlin doll
exhibition. and society turns out in
large numbers to patronize 1t.
There are whole towns in Germany
that do little else but make dolls for
American children. They are mostly
simple country folk. They get small
pay for making even an excellent
doll. but 1t must be remembered that
their wants are few.

Dolls were evidently first intended
to amuse children, but the adults
soon adopted them as source Of en-

the rage in Europe in the sixteenth
century, arriving at such perfection
that the performances rivaled In at
