2 shows, 15 min, full stage. A decided novelty for vaudeville; an act that should be a hit with both young and old. There is a special stage setting, representing a toy store at Christmastime with lots of toys and a large tree, conspicuously displayed. The girls is made up a French doll, one of the men as a tin solider and the other man as a jack-in-the-box, popping up when the girl releases the lid. There is some capital acrobatic work done by DeWitt and Burns, who also introduces their well known perch specialty. The girl is rather pretty, and does some neat and grateful dancing. The act should go he circuit and it will be a lucky house that has it Christmas week.
