of the Munitou, the "Speaking

la the beating of the waves against
the "shingle" or largo pebbles lining
the shores. Along the northern coast
of the Island la a long, low cliff of
fine grained compact llmostono,
which, under tho stroke of the ham
mer, clinks like steel. Tho waves
beating on the shore at the foot of
the cliff cause the fallen fragments
to rub n Rn I nst each other nnd to give
out a sound resembling tho chimes
of distant bolls. The phenomenon
occurs when the gales blow from the
north, and then when tho winds sub

Travelers assert that the effect Is Im

THE MAKING OF TOYS.
An Ai- That Hoarlnlicil Ilrfv Ihe
Days of lllnlorjr.
To tell the whole story of the art of
making toys It would first bo necessary
to find siime means of exploring tho
ages that antedate history. The love of
toys Is as lustluetlve as it Is universal.
No barbarous land has yet been found
which was so uncivilized that Its chil
dren did not have their playthings
shapeless and clumsy, perhaps, but still
capable of fulfilling the purpose for
which they were created and there la
no record of any time wheu little ones
have not possessed some kind of pup
pets with which they might divert them
selves. Archaeologists In delving among
the tombs of ancient lireeee and Egypt
made the surprising discovery that tho
art of toymaklug was not only known,
out had attained a high degree of de
velopment as far back as 5,0)0 years
ago. In those days both Grecian and
Egyptian children had their dolls, and
they were Jointed dolls at that. As
compared with the magnificently attlr
td French conceptions of the present
time they were crude inventions, of
course. Their bodies were made of
wood, of clay or of stone, nnd their lit
tle limbs were wee laths fastened to
the body by means of a wire. Tho
carving of the bodies, however, was not
badly done, and many a child since
that time has been glad to mother
a more unsightly doll.
Hy the side of the dolls of the chil
dren of ancient Egypt the archaeolo
gists unearthed other playthings which
children still love to possess the doll's
furniture, the utensils for cooking and,
what is even more Interesting from an
antiquarian's point of view, the articles
used In the making of sacrifices, clever
ly duplicated In miniature, that the chil
dren might be able to conduct their
dolls through the ritual of their reli
gious exercises, a circumstance that sug
gests that the word "sacrilege" had not
then the same meaning which It has to
day. It is a long step from the year 3000
It. C. to the fifteenth or sixteenth cen
tury, but It w-as within that time that
the art of toymaklug was both brought
to a high state of perfection and then
once more forgotten. Like other arts,
It could not survive the neglect and
vandalism of that period known as the
'Mark ages." Just what the children
used for playthings during these long
centuries of darkness and ignorance
one can only surmise, but it is safe to
say that they found things to play
with, not only because the making of
toys was one of the first objects to
which man devoted his attentions when
he plunged into the renewed activities
of Ihe renaissance, but also for the
reason that, as the psychologists have
recently taught us, playthings are and
always have been quite as necessary a
constituent of human health nnd de-
: velopment as food mid medicine. In
other words, children crave toys be
cause It Is natural for them to wnnt
them. They need them, and to deprive
them of these pleasures would be to
retard their progress In their work of
becoming men and women. Tubllc
Opinion.
"The Rrnnd Old Man."
The Itev. Edward Lloyd Jones of
Mauchester. England, Is credited with
having originated the phrase "the
Grand Old Man" as applied to Mr.
Gladstone. During the Irish agitation
it became necessary that detectives
should follow Mr. Gladstone for the
purpose of protection, and as the Lib
eral leader lived In Ilnwarden, in
Flintshire, that county, then governed
by quarter sessions, was asked to pay
the bill. The magistrates, nearly all
Tories In those days, objected, where
upou Lloyd Jones, who was than a min
ister at Rhyl, promptly culled an Indig
nation meeting, lie asked a lawyer
who was present to state whether, If
tho life of a common tramp was In
peril, it was not the duty of the county
to protect him. The lawyer said that
undoulitedly It was. "Then." shouted
Mr. Jones, "if It Is the duty of this
county la protect the beggar at our
d:)ors, are we going to allow the pre
cious life of that grand old man at Ila
warden to go unprotected?" That
meeting settled the quarter sessions' ob
jections, and the title stuck.

And now June 13th. 1908, the above or
dinance is not approved for the following
reasons, viz: First, There have been
mmur rnmnlaints made to the Hnrgess in
regard to the dogs owned by Chas. Lan
son, Abe Hepler, and Robert Fulton as
being cross and not sale to run an large
without a muzzle. Second, A majority
of the Board of Health is unfavorable to
the repeal of the ordinance, unless an or
dinance be passed to require the owners
of dogs to keep their dogs from running
at large. Third, Many citizens are not
in favor of the repeal of the above section.

lr. Jenkins, master of Itallol college,

Two undergraduates ran hotfoot to as

them draw back, while the master con

This was the explanation: When tho
