Wheels may he fastened to trains and limbs to wounded Un warriors in a moment more reliably than by using glue. A large darning-needle can be converted into a bodkin in an emergency by dipping the point in sealing-wax. It is wise not io allow the children to bring out all their toys every day • they never play with them all at once anyway, and this method, besides saving an immense amount of clearing up, will allow of some of the playthings being kept netc to cheer a day when the youngsters are kept indoors.
