A Real American

Marx Twain was q steamboat pilot. He
wasa searcher for gold In the FAR west. He
was q printer. He worked bitterly hard.

He is the heart, the spirit Of America. From
his poor and struggling boyhood 70 his Glori-
Gus, splendid old age. he remained as simple.

things-brave In the face Of trouble-and
always ready to laugh. That was Marx
Twain.

not hard to make. They may be used
as favors for choosing partners at a
dance or supper. Make two Of kind

turnips, potatoes, carrots, beets, rars-
nips and radishes. Dress them with
bright bits Of ribbon and colored or
white napkins. Apples with Glove eyes
make bright-looking, rosy-cheeked las
sizes peeping out from sunbonnets or
broad-brimmed hats trimmed with
chicken feathers. Carrots and parsnips
make fine ounces and clowns, if tall

be tied to the long. hairy root. making
it look like a pigtail. Various express
sions may be obtained by linking and
using cloves for eyes. 1t is not neces-
sary 70 make bodies, and if a long
cape effect Of paper is left the dolls
will sit up well.
