There Is (ine person III the factory, how
over, who cams morn than this the dc
slgnor of nuw toys. Ho generally nets In
tho capacity of foreman or superintendent,
though not unficiucutly a novelty Is In
vented by one of thu clever workmen. Tills
year the designers h.ivj apparently not
been very busy, nnd In cotiscuucnco the
Mock of American novelties to be olTered
for Clyistnms Is not very great One of
thu most striking among thu new things Is
a Japanese Juggler, who balances a ball on
nu umbrella for a half hour in thu legula
Hon style when wound tip. Another Is a
Spanish dancer of tho initio species, who Is
attached to 11 board and Is worked by a
lover. A weeping doll and dancing liear,
a walking Chinaman, 11 locomotive that
explodes whenever you want It to ami 11
Jointed alligator that creeps along In the
most blood curdlingly natural manner
complete tho list of mechanical novelties.
Then there aro '"doll" sets, combs,
brushes, soap, a tluy bottle of perfumery,
etc., that eoiuu from France, and are cal
ciliated to drive any little miss Into spasms
of delight., (lerinauy also sends something
new in tho "Jumping toy" Hue, being 11
blonde, blue eyed boy, who Jumps on Ins
hands nnd knees true to nature; while
America has added 11 Jumping tin frog that
will win the Iniys' hearts.
In dolls 11 greater variety than lias ever
been seen lie fore will lie on tho shelves of
the toy stores. There are dolls who walk
nnd dolls who bow and dolls who salute
you, or fan themselves, or do almost any
thing else that you wish. And then, of
course, there Is tho doll that talks, thanks
to Mr. Edison, Hut this doll hasn't been
much of a success. Tho pi Ice (f 10) Is too
high, mid then iM'sldessko loses her voice
A Fiiutitleroy doll, though, that came from
Fran-o has lieen sold to retailers by tin
ton, iud a "mourning doll" has gone so
well that the stocks have been exhausted.
Fot tho children of the rich there are any
nuinls'rof expensive new mechanical toys
from France. A Juggler about two feet
high who does more wonderful tricks than
Hermann Is on the shelves for fJl(K) along
side of 11 "pleading barrister" at the same
priee. There Is an "elect rlo toy" for hoys
with luiUlsltlve minds. This fetches fTi,
and generates electricity which Is made
to ring liells,turu machinery, etc. A four
teen inch bonr who walks us naturally as
life Is rated nt (20, and a school of musical
cats nt IfJ. A lioothlnck and a spinning
woman who work for dear life when
wound up are worth tWS. From thin things
get gradually cheaper. A pig that jumps

Thu venerable Oeorgu Haueroft recently
announced that hu had laid down his pen
forever. So it may bo assumed that Ids
literary career is at an end.

Stat hi. They weru children then, ami If
any of them tried to read Mr. llaneroft's
history they doubtless found It Iieyond
their grasp, but It made an impression
upon their elders, which was reflected upon
them; hut a small proportion of those who
liegau to read this history when Its first
volume appeared ever lived to read the
latest chapter. Mr. Hancroft has lived to
tread alone
Komu linnqut't hull ilcsi-rtt-ri,
and listen only to thu encomiums of subse
quent generations.
Mr. iiancroft has all his life been a horse
back rider. One of the first Intimations
the publiu had that the man who Is now
over IK) years old was falling wns an ad
vertisement which appeared some time
ago olTcriug Ills Middle horse for sale. It
Is said that Mr. llancrofl still possesses
physical vigor, but his intellect is falling.
Hu still receives those Impressions which
aro conveyed to him, but they soon pass
away.
Mr. llaneroft's career goes back so far
that scarcely any ouu can hu found who is
familiar witli thu early scenes through
which lie passed. Fifty-six years ago the
first volume of his great history appeared.

Often in summer he has been seen, even
when past the heyday of life, ununited on
