for their little ones. I suppose 1t Is the
effect Of the feeling that one Is doing some
thing for another I always notice a GER
tain sweetness and gentlenesS In the en-
ployes when a baby Is brought TO the
counter. The babies don't have to demand
courtesy. Their appealing sweetness brings
Ii anyway"
But babies don't always like to go shop
ping. Neither do their little brothers and
sisters. The magnet that draws them into
the mercantile district at this season or the
year is the toy store, and lucky, indeed, Is
the mother who persuades them TO come
along without the big inducement OF a trip
through the warehouses OF Santa Claus. IL
Is while wandering through the enchanted
wales Of toyland that the little ones DO
their real shopping, and the money spent
in this way means more TO them than the
purchase of all the fancy garments with
which childhood can be decked.
Perhaps there are too many wonders for
the childish mind to grasp all at once.
Certainly. the intricate mechanical. toys
from Germany are too puzzling for infant
minds. But the music boxes charm with
their tinkl.ng melodies. and there is one
this season hat Is particularly impressive.
The box Is surmounted by the figure Of a
juggler. When the music starts, the Jug
gler sways TO and fro. makes a pretense or
whirling a plate and drops a ball from a
plate into q saucer balanced or the end OF
q stick.
But there are other things more interest
soon turn from them to the white. woolly
dogs, the miniature COWS and horses. Then
there are the elephants with saddles on.
There has been vast progress in toyland
In the last generation. Stiff-legged hobby
horses formerly were the only mounts for
infant riders. Nowadays there are stealthy
tigers all saddled. and elephants with how
dahs large enough to accommodate roly-
poly legs. And as In a toy store the boys
must try on" these mimic beasts OF bur-
den. the aisles of the stores present the APP
p~earance of a Juvenile steeplechase.
On Saturdays the little ones flock in
groups OF fifty or more around the table
where the miniature steam engine draws
its tiny train OF cars. Over shining threads
OF track, past gaudy stations. over tres
ties fully four inches high, flashing by sem
aphores and rafting over switches, the
train speeds. Certainly Stephenson's first
locomotive caused no such sensation as
this, for the shrieks OF delight are ear
splitting.
Soldiers Of all nations, Indians, Chinese.
laps, peasant maids from Europe! 1t Is
life In mimicry, a study In ethnology, a
world museum in which are all the Won
derful animals and people of the earth.
Such Is the toy store to the children, and
in their flushed faces and wide eyes it is
possible to see the inducement for accom-
panying their mothers on the shopping
trip.
One ro~sy-cheeked youngster Of three
summed up the choice of childhood as he
cried for a pufy ~brown-eyed dog on
wheels.

And who wouldn't, II he were a boy out
