Show Nativet Frightened by Doll A letter from Kenya tells of the curious effect of a doll with moving eyes. When it was shown to a native chief he thought It supernatural. On being convinced, after some time, that it was mechanics and not magic that moved the eyes, he asked the loan of It to get back one of his wive who had fled to her native village, fie explained that if he took It then all the men would flee and thus he could secure his wife. He proved as successful in his prophecy as in his quest. |
