patty was abundant until she could stand
/ it no longer, and gave away the little
prevarication of her faithful husband, amidst
the plauditS of the assembled jOval and
happy friends. The niece of Mrs. Mayor
Elect Hewitt. of New York, will grace our
society during the winter. She is the
daughter of Gen. and Mrs Bryce. and is
said to be exceedingly attractive and win
some. Being very clever and possessed OF
an artistic talent, it is expected that she
will add greatly to the enjoyment of
society. Those who know the young lady
say that she has remarkable talent as
caricaturist. The celebrated Mast has often
solicited her assistance upon some OF his
works, and with great benefit to himself
and to the public. She takes great pride i'll
caricaturing friends, innocently and for
pure pleasure.
SIGHTS OF THE PATENT OFFICE.
1t isn't customary for society people to
stroll through the patent Office in quest of
at-you-may-c ems. But a trip through
that great model room revealed some things
in which society is interested. New bosom
pads have just been invented. They are
made of a frame work of the desired shape
! and size, and covered with an elastic tex
tile wrap. This is fixed so that when the
frame work is pressed by any extraneous
force it will spring back with lifelke culver.
Considering the often perplexing and exhil-
arating conditions of modern society this
continuance seems greatly desirable, and
the inventor will probably coin fortune
out of his well-meaning endeayOr to fill
long-felt want. 1t is piOusly hoped. how
ever, that there may be limits to the spring
ing capacity of the new paddy. But the
deceiveC of mankind is ever busy. He has
presented his caveat in the patent Office
for an improved hustle. 1t is invented by
man who evidently has learned to
appreciate all of the weaknesses and
wants of his lady friends. He has proba-
bly, seen many fashy story paper, or
novel, converted to base uses. He has
read of the celluloid man-foolers which ex-
plOde in street cars and burn up women.
He has studied the pressure of skirts and
other things upon the improVised bustleS,
and he has tried to fill the bill. His
model would do for Mrs. Goliath or for
Mrs. Tom Thumb. 1t is prehensile and
expansive. The pliable and yielding rub
Der tubes with sides and radial curved bars
make it readily
ADJUSTABLE TO ANY FORM,
or even to woman who has been brought
up in poverty and been unable to afford
any kind of form. In fact. the endeavor
of the inventors seems to be to make natural
forms unnecessary. The hustle, being made
of rubber, can be kept cool with water or
inflated with gas. You should see it and
handle it to appreciate it. Then there is
new rubber boot with gossamer legs. Every
lady in the Northwest should have pair
of these. They are as handsome as the Or
binary boot. and much more comfortable
and healthful for a Sleighride or winter
ramble on the hill. The goSSamer will fit
any wearer, whether it be a natural or arti-
fetal leg. There are buttons and laces, and
stays, and straps and hooks. They are
lined with flannel, fur and felt. You can
have your choice. Before leaving the Office
an employee showed patent in which he
was interested. 1t was bed-cOver mach inc.
1t is intended to keep the bedcoyer on, no
matter what may be under it. The clamps
jaws. weights, and other machinery are
perfectly awful. But. if you have bed
fellow who kicks the covers off, the ma
chine will tame him. The only way to get
them off would be to tear the covers to
atoms. In brief. with this machine, every
husband with cold feet can make martyr
of the poor thing who has married him.
When the cover is once adjusted, nothing
can move it.
