Resting on the summit of a rugged precipice, the castle, which is 9 feet high and 9 feet long, rises 14 feet and weighs approximately 6,000 pounds. ‘The house, excepting rivets, contains more than 200,000 individual pieces, being & mechanical marvel of un- precedented intricacy, yet practica- ability. Called “the world’s most delight- ful fantasy,” this doll house Is equipped throughout with mechanical wonders in miniature. It boasts of a solid gold cathedral organ 15 inches high, which plays through an elabor- ate electrical system via remote con- trol. The house also has the world's smallest electric light bulbs, each be- ing the size of a grain of wheat and embedded in sockets with the circum- ference of pinheads, in & golden chan- delier strung with glittering, pear- shaped diamonds. The doll house is wired with an electrical system requiring months of labor and experimentation and is controlled with a series of transform- ers and switches for each room. All lighting, with the exception of flood- lighting in the garden, is indirect, with more than 400 small watt bulbs being utilized in the system. Tanks Feed Fountains. Water tanks on turrets and in the dungeons of the castle feed live foun- tains in the kitchen, garden and bath rooms. Operated by an electrically run centrifugal pump, the tanks, on emptying, play beautiful chimes in the steeples every 10 minutes auto- matically. while, operated by elec- tricity, a magic feathered nightingale perches on & lavender glass tree in the Garden of Aladdin and sings full- thoated, joyful tunes.
