on tho fourth floor, dwells Santa Claug.
who writes long lints of juvenile wants
in a big bookkeeper's ledger.
"Now, what la it you wish me to
bring you for Christmas, little lady?"
asked the kindly saint, as tiny goldenhair
was led timidly forward at the end of
a parental forefinger.
When Alice had told him all about the
wonderful doll and the many other
things slio wanted he wrote it all down
carefully and would have kissed Alio
if Alice's mother had not mistrusted the
g while whiskers.
SOMETHING HAPPENS TO ALICE
Just then something funny happened.
There was a blur of lights and Alice
clung tightly to her mother's hand until
it wss over. But when It all became
quite clear again what do you think T
Alice's mother was gone and she was
holding to the long . wooden fingers of
a queer little wooden man, who was lead
ing her through long aisles filled with
oassllng toys and explaining bosfljr aa

"You see that large doll there, the one
with blue eyes and golden hair," ex
plained the wooden man. "She Is queen
of the dolls, but she Is most awfully
stuck up and will not even look at the
othess, so I think wa will hurry right by
her or we may be snubbed.
POIIGETS HER HURT FEELINGS
Alice's feelings felt somewhat hurt, but
in a moment her attention was distracted
and she forgot her wounded dignity.
"Oh, listen," she exclaimed suddenly.
"Isn't that Just t6o sweetT Why It
sounds just like a lady singing In our big
Vlotrola at home, but I don't see it
anywhere."
"No," said the wooden man. "It's not
a Victrola, but It Is a little talking
machine that will reproduce any voice
or sound the .big Vlctrolas will."

Just then little Alice caught a glimpse
'of what she thought wss a great com
motion birds, animals, men, eta., running
around, in all directions, jumping: over
each other, falling down and making all
manner of noise. She tried te tell the
wooden man about it. but he would not
listen, but insisted that they go over

And In a moment they were standing
beside a miniature track and watching
the tralne roar past on their way to dis

There were tunnels through mountain

houses; a big sand derrick, pile driver
snd all sorts of odd things along the
track.
A light flashed along the track and
before Alice could ask what It meant
the wooden man exclaimed, "That's the
danger signal, the limited express is
coming." '.
' But Alice was so faseinated that she
. was not quick enough, so the wooden
man seised her arm and attempted te
drag her away by force.
