A Remarkable Shirt.

Undergoing general circulation is a
story that Edison, the inventor, has pro-
duced an electrical toy baby that can
arrange the letters of any 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.
lis that fact? 1 hadn't heard of
that story yet" said MIR. Edison's
private secretary; ''that must be the
latest out about Mr.. Edison. Is that
European or an American tale?"
That's of Waterbury Conn man
ufacture-that is if it is manufactured.
''Well. it certainly has no truth in it.
Most of the clever stories about Mr..
Edison, however, are European. The
latest was published in the Vienna
TGgeblaH. That was about the three
hundred and sixty-fve shirt-a garment
that Mr.. Edison was said to have sue
ceeded in manufacturing out of three
hundred and sixty-ive delicately thin
sheets of paper in layers, one layer for
every day in the year. You tore off the
outer sheet every morning, and started
each day with spick and span clean
shirt. For leap years you bought
three hundred and sixty-six shirt. A
man in Paris went to an exchange
Office, bought five-dollar bill, and
mailed it to Mr.. Edison for sample of
the garment, and chap in Berlin tried
to buy the agency for it in Prussia. -

Styles in Mems Apparel.

A few of the holder manufacturers
have endeavored to foist certain rich,
dark colors upon the market, with a
view to having them adopted for dress
suits, diplacing thereby the somDer,
orthodox black; but it is believed that
the good taste of the class who are accus-
toned to wear full evening dress will
nip this attempt in the bud, prompted
as it is by the fact that there is less
money in the black than in the deep
wine colors. The lapels of the dress
coat are to be made smaller this year
than last, and will be fashioned to roll
somewhat higher than heretofore, the
curve or scoop commencing at the third
button. The sleeves will fit trifle more
closely to the arm, and the skirt. if
changed at all, will be slightly length
ened, Silk facings, either in full or ex-
tending only to the button-holes, are
still fashionable, the material used be-
ing fine rep corded silk. Black satin
is in bad taste. The dress vest is cut
with three buttons, and ''scooped'' so
deity as to make a wide shirt bosom a
necessity. 1t is finished round the edge
with a double row of gimp. The trou-
sers are cut straight, made to tit the leg
snugly, and are finished with silk braid
on the outer seams.
The Prince Albert coat, for fall and
| winter use, will, of course, be still of
dark material, blue and black being the
favorite colors. The coat is made to tit
the figure more closely. The vest is of
the same material, and buttons to point
just under the top button of the coat.
Great latitude is allowed in the selection
of materials for the trousers, though a
dark or light gray mixture and very
fine black-and-white check are in the
greatest demand. Striped goods will be
worn, though not as much as formerly.
The cut-away coat is made almost pre-
cisely the same as last season.
There is very handsome frock-coat,
entirely new this season, that will look
we'll with almost any style of trouser
pattern 1t is made double breasted,
with either three or four basket buttons,
and Is bound with sewing-silk army
braid, laid on flat. This garment is
very appropriate for walking, and is
said to be well adapted for elderly gen
:lemen. 1t is made of an Oxford mixed
diagonal cloth.
Overcoats will this season be worn
double-breasted. There is but slight
difference in the length, the change, if
any, being one of increase. The ten
dency toward tightness in wearing APP
parel is as apparent in the overcoat as
in other garments. They are made to
fit snugly and to follow the shape of the
figure down to the apper limit of the
skirt. The collar of the fall overcoat
must be of the same material as the body
of the garment, while on the winter coat
velvet collar may be worn.-Boston
Herald.

APPLE GATHERING.

Just such another blowy day,
With grand capriciOus sky.
And In the orchard, glad and gay.
Were Cousin Joan and j;
Both mounted on ladder long. the apples all
among
My seat the top her dainty feet upon lower
rung.
And oh, how sweet the hazel eyes
That there hook up at me.
The truest, softest, deepest eyes
That ever shall see.
Then what a perfect mouth! / thought it
would be simple bliss
If from those rosy lips might but steal one
little kiss.
For was I not her cousin, too?
And half bent my head;
But not the dreadful thing to do
No. no! I've ever said
But she, perchancc had fancied SO, and
sudden Sidewalks bent,
And, from the movement, to the ground the
ladder staggering went.
Ny graceful. darling lovely Joan
Fell lightly, without harm;
And /. as she arose alone,
Scarce felt my broken arm.
But when, without a glance, and looking
scornful. cold and proud.
She turned away. then, with the twofold pain,
groaned aloud.
She started and her face grew white;
But then fell to my share
Such gentle ministries that light
Seemed all the pain to bear.
o fingers deft and tender, once i'm mine held
you fast,
And humbly craving, got the kiss longcd so
for at last.
And with it. too, my sweetheart Joan,
Whose pity grew to love:
Still who had never been my own
But for that day above
Then, at the apple-gatherng in the dear old
apple tree,
When not single fruit was plucked by my
fair wife or me.

"No, 1 think, 1 am quite sure she

And Carlo, as if he understood every
word, barked gladly.
They forced little brandy between
the stiff lips, and it was not long before
she opened her eyes.
Then Mr.. Spencer harnessed his horse

fathers, soon returning with both
grandma and Abby, for Abby forgot
her sore throat the moment she heard
that Bessie was in danger. They had
only just missed her at home, and the
house was in q perfect panic when Mr..
Spencer arrived there. Joe had gone
down to Aunt Mary's, being quite sure
that he should find her there safe and
sound, but when he came back with the
information that they had seen nothing
of her there, he did not know what to
think.
''But," said Joe at length, ''she may
have gone out with the intention of 90
ing there, and then, seeing Jack O
Lantern which some of the boys had
stuck up On the gate-pOst, may have
been frightened and gone back again,
and in her bewilderment, instead of 90
ing up the hill toward home have turned
in the other direction and gone toward
the village
But Bessie had kept on into the
woods instead of going to the village
where Joe was seeking her at that mo-
ment, and if it had not been for Carlo
she would have frozen to death before
any aid would have reached her.
Bessie wasn't able to tell them how
it was that night, she was too weak.
she could not remember, but the next
morning everything came back to her;
and she shuddered when she told of the
horrible face that looked over the gate
at her.

away so, and l thought he was an aw-
full giant. or something, that was going
to eat me up" she said, sobbing.
But no one even suggested that it
was naughty to run away. for grandma
felt little conscience-stlicken herself
on the subject. 1t had been dreadfully
dull ut the farmhouse in the evening,
and after that she took care that she
always had something to amuse her.
Bessie did not 90 out again for some
time. She was weak and feverish, and
a long, serious illness only by
the greatest care being exercised.
AS for Carlo, he became the hero of
the town. Bessie's papa brought him
a beautiful silver collar when he re-
turned from Europe, and he wears it
proudly to this day, learning to under
stand that it is badge OF honor. He is
a very old dog now, and Bessie is grow
