A swell young husband thinks it

80, dear! you've driven that
hairpin way into my head"

A man up town, who occasional
ly takes his better half to the thea

A dress is to be exhibited in
London, embroidered with fine
wire thread, so arranged as to form
myriads of tiny incandescent lamps,
and connected with conducting
wire terminating in the heels of the
wearer. The dress does not attract
attention until the wearer places
her heel upon one of the small but
tons in the floor contrived for the
purpose and connected below with
an electric generator. The effect
is magical; the whole costume
bursts into a dazzling brilliancy,
and remains so as long as the wires
continue in contact with the cleo
trict current. The patentee hopes
to have this costume or some modi-
fication of it adopted for the stage.
