Mrs. L. J. Glass, this week, received a beautiful toilet and work box for her Christmas present which was made entirely by hand by Peter Glass of Sheboygan county, who is 78 years age, and the father of Louis J. Glass, her husband. The box is all inlaid work of very pretty designs, and consists of thousands of pieces of woods, which fit with such nicety that it is almost impossible to find the different pieces. The work must be seen to be appreciated.
