Edison's Toy Baby aud Patent Shirt

Undergoing general circulation is a
story that Edison, the inventor, has
produced an electrical toy baby that
can arrange the letters of anv name
from among spelling blocks; that can
say "Come in" Mamma, Use sleepy"
and two or three other sentences, and
that can cry, laugh, sing and play the
piano.

that story yet" said MIR. Edison's pri.
vate secretary. "rhat must be the
latest out about Mr.. Edison. Is that
u European or an American tale?"
"Tha:'s of Waterbury, Conn, man
ufaotrre-that is, if it is manufac.
tured."
"Well, it certainly has no truth in
it. Most of the cl, yer stories abou,
Mr.. Edison, however, are European.
The latest was published in the vi
emma Taseblatt. That was about the

taias to the Mississippi. There have
been SO many rulings upon this law
since it has been III force that it has
been little difficult to tell what land
could be located under its provisions,
and in some instances there have been
divers complaints about it being too
rigid. The Commissioner has hereto
fore been unfriendly toward the law,
and has by unfavorable rulings put a
damper on the Wholesale land grabbing
that was imminent. But under the
rev management the land sharks will
have full swing. 1t is to be regretted
that the law had not been repealed
years ago, but now, since most of the
best land in the country has been
taken it matters but little. Those
holding desert land claims may we'll
rejoice that the way to their titles has
been made easy. Yet it may not
prove altogether good for the country,
as there is probably no land in the
inter-mo'intain region but maynow be
taken as desert land,

Mistletoe mt Christmas Tide.

The hanging of hc mistletoc is the
cause of much froho and laughterin the
house. 1t is the rule that whoever is
passing under tie mistletoe-bough must
submit to being kissed then and there
by whosoever chooses to take that lib
erty. AS bough usually hangs from
the center of the ceiling, spreading over
q large space, it follows that there must
be much lodging or much kissing; L
am inclined to think there are both.
The origin of this use of the mistletoe
is not known; but we do know that
more than eighteen hundred years ago,
when the glad stars sang together over
the manger in Bethlehem, and when
wise men brought gifts of gold, frank
incense and myrrh to a young Child in
the peasant mothers arms, England
was a chill, mist-covered island, in'1ab-
tied only by savages, who wore gar
ments of skins and lived in huts of mud
and stones. Among these savage Brit
ons there were pagan priests called
Druids. These priests were q mysterl-
