They Are Made Im Great Variety ul Sold la Large Number* 1B Tfela Coaatry. There are made for furriers and for other uses great numbers of animal head forms, these being reproductions, in a composition used for the purpose or in papier-mache, of the heads of va­ rious animals, including squirrels, foxes, wolves, bears, tigers and almost, if not, indeed, every known kind of ani­ mal, large and small, says the New York Sun. Animal head forms are commonly made with the mouth open, showing the inside of the jaws and the tongue and the teeth. These parts, in heads of all sizes and whatever the animals may be, are finished and colored by the head- form manufacturer. The eyes are com­ monly put In by the furriers and others using the head forms when the forms are covered, though they are sometimes put in by the head-form manufacturer. There are made in artificial eyes re­ productions from nature of the eyes of practically all known animals and birds. Such eyes are sold and used in the aggregate in enormous numbers. The smaller animal head forms are sold by the gross; big ones, like bears and tigers, by the dozen. Taking them all together, large and small, the num­ ber of animal head forms used is very large, amounting in this country to mil­ lions annually. The smaller beads are prodtoeed at very small cost. Formerly the animal head forms used in this country were imported from Germany and England. Now they are made here, and some American head forms are ex­ ported. WHERE ICE IS WELCOME. Oca. Fnaiton Loagcd to Cat the lee of Sncceaa aad Has at Last Foaad It. In connection with the possibility of Gen. Funston having a political ambi­ tion. J. W. Gleed tells a Btory which gives much insight into the character of the man, says the Kansas City Jour­ nal. Gleed was In New York on the day Funston sailed away to join the insur­ gent forces in Cuba, and accompanied l>im to the steamer to say good-by. While the pair were talking at the steamer landing, Funston spoke of his probable future, and said: "Willis, I have no ambition to get rich. I wouldn't get into politics for any- thing. I am afraid I have no settled aim or clearly seen ambition. But, nev­ ertheless, 1 want to cut some ice in the world, and 1 intend to keep hustling un­ til my time comes." This yearning to cut ice has been manifest in all the movements of the restless, tireless, always moving young Kansas soldier. He has searched for his opportunity from the Arctic to the equator. Never staying anywhere long, he has dropped one thing after another in a fashion that made his friends fear he was a changeling and unstable. But now they begin to comprehend that it was the eagerness and fretful- ness of a mighty ambition, and that what they deplored in him was the very characteristic that was to lead him on toglory. Atlast, 1Q,000 miles away from home, he found a chance to cut the ice of his ambition, and in cutting he cut aplenty. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.
