TO believe and expect Christmas pres
ents and the disappointment accom-
panying a lack of the usual spirit,
would be exceedingly difficult to esti-
nate.
For the children, and Christmas
was mean largely for them, toys CON
stitute nearly a hundred per Cent of
the gifts. This has been the custom
for ages and ages. 1t has been so for
so long a time that an industry that
mounts into the millions has been
created by the demand. There are two
distinct classes OF toys, the American
manufactured article, and the German
article, usually hand made.
The German article has the great
er demand. The workmanship is pre-
e%minently the best, owing to the fact
hat German labor Is cheaper. Ameri
can competition has no effect on the
German manufacturer. His goods can
be manufactured and imported direct
to h retail merchant at a price con
siderably less than that demanded by
the American manufacturer. The man
ufacture of mechanical toys Is con
nned almost wholly 20 Nuremberg, in
southeast Germany. An enormous in
dustry has come into existence in this
line and remarkable as it may seem
to the average reader. American mer-
chants n the American public are
the prlnC-~al consumers.

Coffee as a Factor in the Production of Gastric

The pathological properties Of coffee have received but scaut attention
from medical authors although, it is not doubtful think, that more than
any other single substance, conee is responsible for the great prevalence
of nervous, gastric, and cardiac diseases at the present time, and that the

be justly set down to the use o abuse Of conee as a beverage
