Mary Smith

Did you ever wonder how people woke up in time for school or work in the days before alarm clock? In the early twentieth century, townspeople in England hired knocker-ups like Mary Smith for a few pence a week. Mary Smith traveled through predawn streets armed with a peashooter and a pocket watch, waking her clients at whatever hour they requested by plinking dried peas at their bedroom windows.
In rollicking words and pictures, Andrea U'Ren re-creates one busy morning in the life of her intrepid true-life subject--a morning when Mary Smith helps her town start its day in a timely fashion, only to receive a rude awakening when she comes home. Could it be that the knocker-up's own daughter has been sleeping in?

Handcrafted Four Seasons Lamp (South Korea)

Illuminate your favorite room with the oriental charm of this handcrafted Four Seasons Lamp.
This elegant pine treasure is made in the shape of a Korean house. The four sides feature glass lined with traditional rice paper, each bearing an ink illustration of a different oriental flower. The lamp boasts two different light settings; one is a traditional incandescent bulb, or you can pull the decorative chain to create soft, red mood lighting.
The intricate woodwork along the base of the piece is truly remarkable.
The workshop where these gorgeous pieces are made burned to the ground last year. Rather than give up on their lost trade, the artisans and owners teamed up to start the project anew from the ground up. By buying this quality Worldstock
product you are helping to bring back prosperity and renewed hope to these talented artisans.
The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences in design and sizing. Subtle variations... Handcrafted Four Seasons Lamp (South Korea)

The Best Thief In The World (DVD)

Izzy is a troubled 11-year-old boy whose home life drives him into acts of quiet, lonely desperation. When his father, paralyzed after suffering a stroke, comes home to live in the already-cramped apartment Izzy shares with his English-teacher mom (Mary-Louise Parker, BOYS ON THE SIDE, ROMANCE& CIGARETTES) and two siblings, he begins to spend much of his time roaming the Manhattan streets. His favorite pastime is breaking into apartments when the occupants are away, but the thief of the title is somewhat misleading, as Izzy rarely steals anything of much importance. Instead, he rearranges the furniture, eats the food in the refrigerator, and engages in small acts of vandalism. As the threat of unemployment and the lack of medical coverage begins to overwhelm his mother, Izzy's involvement with older, rebellious neighborhood kids lures him deeper into a life of crime.
