...beaks. Nieu Bethesda has other attractions. The Owl House, decorated with finely ground multicolored glass, was the home and life's work of "outsider" artist Helen Martins, and it's now a museum.

There are "plates, dresses, jewelry, liqueurs, TVs, dvds, fridges, children's toys and mobile phones," says André Boussougou, 40. His specialty is aluminum, which he sorts and sells to a pot manufacturer, and leather, which he hawks to a dealer who exports to Europe.
