wrote something on the back of the

New Horses.
OF course. rocking horses have been
popular presents since our grand
fathers time, but not such rocking
horses as are shown now, as different
from the painted, woodeny-looking
creatures of few years ago as day is
different from night.
These horses, some mounted on a
platform, with tiny wheels under
meath. others rocking in spirited fash
ion, are imported from the famous toy
factories of Germany, and in shape,
posture and expression they are al
most perfect. The hide is real horses
hide, the hoofs are like horses hoofs,
and there is a life-like spirited air in
the pose of the body, the curve of the
neck, the thin, pink-lined nostril and
bitted mouth.
Some of these beauties are hitched
to charming little wagonettes, dog
carts and fancy traps, the harness be-
ing as handsome as the horses. but a
certain dappled grey pony, not more
than a foot and a few inches high. is
so rounded and deep-chested and alto

WHEN LINCOLN WAS POSTMASTER.

John Wanamaker was the principal
speaker at dinner given by the Phila-
delphia Association of Underwriters to
the national board in the Continental
hotel He told the following story of
Lincoln: "While at Washington it
came under my notice in the postoffice
department that Abraham Lincoln, in
his early life, had been postmaster at
a small Ohio town. In the changes
that took place the office was CONSOLE
dated with Salem, and the man twice
wanted for president was for once not
wanted for postmaster. Years after 1T
was discovered that no settlement had
reached Washington of the affairs of
that little postoffice. A visit was made
to Mr.. Lincoln and the case stated,
when the always great man rose from
his desk and walked over to chest
of drawers and took out bundle OF
papers, among them an envelope con-
tanning SIT and some cents, the exact
sum in identical money of the gov
eminent safely in keeping until called
for. AS he handed it over to the agent
of the postoffice department he safd:
HThere it is I never use any other
mans money.'"-N. Y. Tribune.

make any boy with nautical knowledge
covet the ownership of one. Steam
yachts they are, trig and shapely from
stem to stern, and perfect in every de-
tail, both inside and out. Some are
fully forty inches long and the tiny
dolls, dressed as sailor lads and lass
les. would look well promenading on
the decks.
Christmas Games.
Games have blossomed out in varie-
ty with the coming of Christmas.
Napoleon" King Quoits,' "Cat and
Happiness" are all new importations
that bid fair to be popular.
Napoleon" will delight the boy or
girl who loves history and pique the
interest of those who need to have their
memories refreshed on historical Incl
dents pertaining to that period. Cat
and Mouse is a game of another sort
and shows a life-like "mittenS" teas
ing her victim.
A unique game is 1.-The American
Hurdle Race" Four or five horses are
despatched over a field with lhigh-bar
red fences, and the horse that clears
all of these hurdles is declared winner
of the game. The horses go along with
wonderful precision and rapfdity, rising
to the emergency at each OBSTRUCTION
and the field is like a piece of real turf.
Brownie blocks are shown for the
first time this year, the set of pictures
accompanying them showing those lit
tie busy bodies in all manner of quaint
attitudes occupied in all sorts of ways.
The Santa Claus blocks are new, too,
and the fortunate possessor can build
the reindeer, horns and all, the trum-
pets. and even the toys in the chariot,
for themselves.
