An almost constant hum, hum of voices, and footsteps going In and out, and accustomed as ho was to It, noise grated on the bookkeeper's nerves, for It was near the close of the month's business, when the trial balance would bo on, and the balance or the year expected. He was tired, brain tired, nerve tired and soul tired, and the long rows of figures seemed Instinct with life, llttlo dancing Imps trying to dodge and hldo from his memory, luring him on to orrors which would afterwards causo endless search and trouble to discover. Tho manager had gono home, and the other employes, having finished their work, wero at liberty to go also "Going homo, Mr. Smith?" asked tho clerk, a fresh cheeked young man, whoso voice fell ploasantly on the bookkeeper's ear. llo hnd been young, care free and sanguine himself once, and he hud a tender feeling for young men. "Not Just uow, Charlie. About an hour's work hero yet." Ho looked after tho Jaunty, elastic figure, with a slight sigh for his own lost youth He was old; he felt It in overy nerve. Joint and brain cell, and ho wondered how many years of rest It would take to obliterate the Impress of life's toll There must be figures Imprinted on hts brain, he thought, and figure* danced baforu his eyes at night when ne wouia sleep, in never ending procession. "It's going to be cold to-night. Mr 8mlth," said tho Janitor, when at last the safo was locked and the book koepPr struggled Into his ovorcoat fur too thin for tho weather, old and worn In tho battle of life, like himself. "Ych. Light tho fires a little early, Johnson, please, for I shall be 011 hand before the others." "All right, sir." The Janitor looked after him with a pitying smile. "Poor old duffer. I expect he knows he's got to put In his best licks if he holds his Job. It's a hard world, that's what It Is." It was a small cottage home where the weary footsteps at last halted, and there was a female figure on tho little porch In front. "Is that you, papa?" "Yes, Mattle. How is my dear tonight?" "How Is my dear? Your dear Is all right," she answered, with brisk pleasantry, as she locked her arm In his. and swung the door wide open. "I know you are tired. 1 can feel your muscles quiver." "Yea, Mattle. How warm and savory you smell In here," be said, Inhaling the pleasant odor aud warmth gratefully. It was such a cheerful little sitting room, with pictures tastefully hung, draped windows, and rvstful easy chairs Invitingly placod. Just beyond, the little tea tubio with its snowy oloth and glimmer of modest silver and glassware, beckoned temptingly, but Mattle shook her finger in warning. "You are not even to look toward the dining room until 1 call you, papa," she said, laughingly. "I should have had supper all on if you were not such an unpunctual party. Sit down now and got warm while 1 am gone." He r-ank Into the red covered rocker with the slippers standing suggestively before it, with a smile. It is so Buuu iu uo ui liuiiiu, una Mattlo was such a cliecry little homekeeper that his maDtle of care slipped off for the moment, and his weary eyes drooped dreamily In the warm firelight. "I do believe you have been napping, papa," Mattie said, as she caine In ten minutes later. She did not tell him that she had dropped a tear, and a kiss as light and soft as a downy suowfluke on his tired eyes to nwukon him, as she stood beside htm, her heart swelling with a great pity and love. "Come, dear, waffles and tea will rest you, 1 know, and Aunt Dean has sent in a platter of fried chicken and some of her fine, white clover honey." "Quite a feast, my child," said the father, smilingly, as he took his seat before the plate of steaming waffles. "Aren't you afraid 1 shall develop gout If we live so high?" It was their little Joke, and each laughed merrily as Mattlo poured the tea.

"Not much better, daughter. Mr. Rollins was coolly civil, that was all, and the manager fretted over u mistake which was more his fault than miua. It Is of no use to disguise tho truth, dear. I can feel it in the air that there will soon be a younger bookkeeper at the desk, and the old man will have to take what lie can get. I can see they put their heads together and speak lew, and are careful to closo doors when I am about. They mean to let mo down easy, 1 suppose, and not hurt my feelings; as if anything would hurt worse than to know one has outlived his usefulness." And all the pain and trouble of tho weeks past seemed concentrated in the trembling bitterness of his tone. "There, love, 1 have j made you ery?forgive me, dear. It I will be all right. Mnttlo. The Lord 1 CHRIST AND T HY OTTlLLUi will never leuve nor forsake me?we have His promise," and his lingers threaded her brown hair gently, and with a smile of trust, though the teara were starting, as she citing around j hla neck, patting his withered chock and telling him how 6ho loved him, j and how too dear and good he was to bo tho slave of heartless men who only cared for business and money, and could not appreciate the honest, i conscientious sorvlce bo had given them. It was her foolish, woman's way of looking on the one side when her I love throbbed so flrecely that her ' heart seemed bursting nnd breaking with its weight.

After all, what did it nintter? Only a few short years, and then rest?the roHt which romnlns, and who3e deep mysteries none come back to toll. What would it matter there whether ho finished his life work with one ' or the other, bo thnt it was finished honestly and faithfully. He went to bed early and stretched his tired limbs with deep thankfulness for home and the home lovo which so took the sling out of life's contest. Mettle was so like her mother, doar girl. God had been very good to give him tho devotion of two such loving, faithful souls?and thinking so of her, he fell asleep. It was the day before Christmas, and struggle against It as be would, the bookkeeper's heart was still heavy. Tho first of tho year would doubtless sco tho new incumbent, whoevor it might bo, installed In his place, and he watched every sus-' plclous arrival .with a feverish au.v-. lety. - . s There was metre than ever the air of mystery In the office to-day, and the manager whispered to the clerk, und the clerk directed off-hand Inquiry. which might mean everything or nothing to the cashier, and so it went until his heart was liko lead, and his hands trembled 60 with nervous chill that be could scarcely make his Qgures. "The manager woutd liko to see you, sir, in his private office," said Tom. tho office boy, in his ear, and urose, trembling. "Well, Mr. Smith," said the manager, in his easy, prosperous tones; he had liis thousands invested, besides his position, nud had no need to worry over tho price of coal or breadstuffs. "You have worked for us nbout ten years now, I believe." The bookkeeper lifted up a haggard fnce, in which there was not a trace cf color. It had come, then, and he must carry the news to Mattle on Christmas Eve. "Yes, sir, ten years come January," he managed to stammer out. if he hod looked behind hint he would have seen the door tilled with smiling faces, but he wns too miserable to care who saw his misery. "And all these years you have Burved us faithfully." | "l nave tried to, sir." "We are not much given to sentiment, Mr. Smtth, but It occurs to us that It Is only Just, sir, that we celebrate this holiday occasion with a little token of our appreciation. Tom. you beggar, come along .here with that package." The office boy came grinning, with | a great bundle which he laid In the manager's arms. "We have noticed, sir, that you are growing old, as well as the rest of us, and that your step Is not as elastic as when you first entered our employ," pursued the manager as he cut the string and unrolled a handsome fur lined coat, the 1 very odor of which suggested luxurious warmth, "and that you hover over the fire r, little more, consequently, than when your young blood ( kept you warm, and as we wish to ] keep you with us for another ten years.

The dazed bookkeeper stepped forward like one In a dream, and held nut his arms mechanically, and the manager patted and smoothed the luxurious garment across the thin ( shoulders, which had lost their upright, sturdy carriage by long stoop- < ! lag over the books. "Such a time, sir, as wo have had getting your measure." remarked the cashier, with a genial smile. "You were sure to look around If we had a word to say to each other."

Practically all the devices with motor and dynamo attachments are of domestic make. Until very recent years nearly all the playthings sold in this country were Imported from France. Germany and Austria, with a few from England, but now it looks as if America were taking up the trade in earnest, and it is a far larger industry than the casual shopper would ever dream. Last year Germany, which leads in toy manufacturing, exported $15,000.000 worth, while France, which ranks second, sent out $7,500,000. Estimated on the fact that we imported between 10,000,000 and 12,000,000 toys and dolls, not counting a thirty-five per cent, duty, it is reckoned that last year's retail sales of foreign and domestic playthings came to at least $30,000,000. It was with the introduction of expensive iron toys that America began to supply some of its own demand, so that now, while the domestic products do not equal the imports, they make a considerable factor, and threaten more and more to drive out the foreign makers. This is strikingly shown in the new electrical toy^wjilch depend so largely for theirM|Hta^iu unity of the ln^^^^^Rhc forte of tho American aiher than on tho technical the ordinary workman?a here. As long as iron toys wore made to run by ccrews and mechanism. Germany was able to hold tho market because of the greater technical proficiency of her factory hands. A boy from their trade schools could do the work which requires a skilled man here, making it possible for tho German factory to turn out cheaper and better toys. However, some clever American i mechanic hit upon the scheme of substituting electricity for mechanism, greatly to tho Joy cf the American boy, and at tho same time greatly to the advantage of American toyniakers. Now, Instead of winding up a box to keep the train of cars a-moving, ! they are placed on a third rail system. By making the cars very light, i a battery too weak to shock the small proprietor will operate the cars successfully. Besides initiating k!m into the mysteries of the switch, semaphore and round Iioubc, there are electric trip-hammers, punches, dynamos, scroll saws, buzz saws and | chain and bucket derricks, all new ; this year, to the credit of American ' Ingenuity. A far more skillful piece of mechanism la the German ferryboat train. 1 The cars go around the trrfck and nn the boat, while the stopping of the train sets the ferryboat In motion; | then It moves across the Imaginary , river, landing tho cr.ra at the station.

The boy fixes his longing instead on a tiny model of the Zeppelin airship, differently propelled, but a perfect copy in appearance. Aside from the mass of electrical toys there i;re a few mechanical devices oT American invention exhibited in this year's Christmas stock of toys. One is a "jack-in-thc-boi" top, which starts spinning in the ens?, then lifts the lid and hops out without stopping its motion. There is r.l<o a lazy bay's top, which winds its own string while spinning. There is a whale, which swims across a tub of water, spouting gorgeously on his journey. "Mr. Jigger" is n many-Jointed, wooden figure which jigs to any tun? whistled or sung by merely rapping a board in time. The uncanny dancing mannikin draws crowds which ta:: the imagination of its barker, who proclaims its virtues as an infant. , unifier. "Your baby begins to cry. Place this on the sewing machine, and, holding the board with one elbow, begin to rap." The demonstrator followed liis own directions, producing an unholy clatter, to which the mannikin jigged. "The baby sees him dance. lie stops crying. Ho begins to crow"?and the zealous salesman pounds harder than ever. "Not on jour life," contradicts a sturdy looking matron, raising her voice above the nolc?. ' You're a real smart young man, no doubt, hut any human young one I ever sro would yell murder.
