TALKING DOLLS.
The I'rmliM'tlnn of the Clever
fi«rman Tnymftkem.
Olio 01 the most striking of 1110 now
Cliristniiis toys takes the shape of a
real talking doll. In tin; past dolly's
vocabulary has boon limited to such
phrases as "l)a-da" or "Ma-ma," sounds
produced by a rood and a pair of
bellows. All that is to bo changed, and
dolly will be able to say quite a num
ber of nice things and carry on little
conversations of a hundred words or
more and, if necessary, sing the very
latest song.
The idea conies from Germany and
Is really an adaptation <»i' the principle
upon which the gramophone is based.
Briefly ii is this: Secreted somewhere
in the doll's interior will be a tiny disk
machine, which will carry a record
about two inches in diameter. When
tile doll has been made presentable and
feels eijual to taking part in the con
versation her Utile nurse will simply
have to place a disk 111 a crevice some
where in dolly's back, an operation as
simple as putting a penny in a slot,
and the doll will do the rest Two
dolls, with suitable records, may easily
be made to carry 011 quite intelligent
conversations.—London Daily News.
Some C'liriNtmiiM Though tfi.
Lift up your eyes to the great mean
ing of tile day and dar-> to think of
your humanity as something so divine
ly precious that it is worthy of being
made an offering to <Jod. Count it as
a privilege to make that offering as
complete as possible, keeping nothing
back, and then go out to the pleasures
and duties of your life, having been
truly bom anew into his divinity as
he was born into our humanity on
Christmas day.—l'liillips Brooks.
May the spirit of the sweet Christ
mas Child possess me; may the Star of
Bethlehem shine above my dwelling
place.—Thomas a Keiupis.
The season of regenerated feeling—
the season for kindling not merely the
fire of hospitality in the hall, but the
genial flames of charity in the heart.—
Washington Irving.
We make a great deal of peace with
heaven; Christ made mueli of peace 011
earth.—Henry 1 irunimond.
It i> gjoil to lie children sometimes,
and never better than at Christmas,
when its mighty Founder was a child
himself.—('liarles 1 lickens.
<_' li TIMI HI II M l'ireN.
If one would revive a memory of tht
old Yule fire, a backing of hard wood,
tlie largest to be had, should be chosen.
The hearth should be 'clean and cold
before Christmas even and the log set
in place with the cedar or pine or other
"light wood" kindlings at hand. As
the sun goes down fire is applied and
the big log set ablaze. In the days of
the Druids, whence Yule log is derived,
the priests lighted the annual log with
an ember from the sacred perpetual
lire they guarded. In the mountain re
gions of the south the hearth fire is
kept with an almost equal fidelity,
scarcely ever being permitted to die
out from October to March, and in the
cabins of the negroes it is 110 uncom
mon sight upon a Christmas night to
see within the fireplace itself, their
heads up the chimney, pickaninnies of
various sizes busied in warming their
toes, their bare feet resting on logs of
cedar or hickory or oak and their black
eyes rolling with anticipations of com
ing good things.—Harper's Bazar.
The First thrlntmns Olmrrmnce.
Christmas gets its name from the
mass celebrated in the early days of
the Christian church in honor of the
birtli of Christ, its first solemnization
having boon ordered by Pope Teles
phorus. This was in or before the
year 138, for in that year Pope Teles
pliorus died. At first Christmas was
what is known as a movable feast, just
as Easter is now, and, owing to mis
understandings, was celebrated as late
as April or May. In the fourth century
aii ecclesiastical investigation was or
dered, and, upon the authority of the
tables of the censors in the Roman ar
chives, Dec. 25 was agreed upon as the
date of the Saviour's Nativity. Tradi
tion fixed the hour of birtli at about
midnight, and this led to the celebra
tion of a midnight mass in all the
churches, a second at dawn and a third
In the later morning.
Where the Toy* Come From.
The value of Gorman toys exported
to foreign countries last year was close
to $13,700,000, of which the United
States, as the principal customer, took
about $4,000,000 worth. Sonnoberg is
die chief center of the industry. The
annual report of the chamber of com
merce of the Sonnoberg district gives
the following scale of dally wages
paid to persons working on dolls and
doll heads, the hours of lalior being
ton to ten .ami one-half: Male adults,
.">4 to ID cents; female adults. 3'S to 48
cents; male youths, 30 to 48 cents;
girls, 24 to 37 cents. Most of the hands
are paid by the piece, the men earn
ing from $3.00 to $•!, the women from
$1.1»2 to *3.(Mi and the youths from
91 10 to $2.40 per week. On piecework
some skilled males earn as high as
17.2*1 and expert women up tw $4.32
per week.
