INVENTION AND DISCOVERY.

A new paper doll has been invented by a Brooklyn woman.

It is so arranged that the arms and legs are fastened on movable discs, and Miss Dolly, instead of being the flat, uninteresting thing that most paper dolls are, can move her arms and legs, and attend tea parties, and take refreshments, just as any well brought-up stuffed dolly can.

She is to wear a great many beautiful dresses, which will take on and off easily, and will be a very nice companion for the little women who live in apartments, and have not much room for their dollies.


Scissors or shears.

This is a very useful invention for a boy's tool-box or for mamma's work-table.
