At first sight this photo. looks like an ancient gargoyle off some
church tower, but it is in reality nothing more or less than a knot of
maple, found near Mausaukee, Wis., U.S.A., by a man of that town. The
finder positively asserts that no knife has been used to produce the
faces. You will notice that the mouth of the upper face is even equipped
with teeth. We are indebted for the photo. to Mr. T. R. Bowring,
photographer, of De Pere, Wisconsin.
