THIS Is truly an age OF steam and cleo
tricity. All things move with speed the
very thought of which would have taken
away the breath of our plodding but much
more stable ancestors This Is as truo Of
current literature as II In of mechanical in
ventions. The fame of the popular author
Of these days grows to a rank maturity as
quickly as the weeds of the garden. But
no sooner does the flower of his genius at
tract universal attention and admiration
than some new fswcr draws away the
popular fancy, and tho plant Of yester-
day is called weed, as the plant Of
to-day will be called on the morrow.
Think OF the immense popularity once
possessed by "Uncle Toms Cabin"
Lorna Doone," and Hugh Conway's Il
"Called Back" So, too. was tho craze
over John Habberton's "lIelcn's Babies"
and the run upon the booksellers
for cdr. Jekyll and Mr.. HYDE"
aud for Robert Elsmere.' When
we consider the vast amount OF
really excellent permanent literature
and the fact that over twenty five thousand
new books are published annually, we can
feel with added force the wisdom of Emer-

John II. Lands, Of Window, this
county, on Tuesday visited Philadel-
phia and the headquarters of the Re-
publican state committee. What he
reported TO Chairman Andrews of the
political situation in this county IL pub
lished by the city papers of this morn
ing. The Inquiror says:
"Ex- Representative John II. Landis, of
Lancaster county, who was identified
with the Independent movement Of 1882
when questioned regarding the outlook In
his county. said: No candidate for gov
ernor has ever received rs large majority
in Lancaster county as Senator Delamater
will have Mr.. Landis said that the far
mers of the state who are Republicans will
support their party candidates and pointed
to the result of the primary elections In
Lancaster, Mercer and other agricultural
counties, all OF which elected Delamater
delegates to the state convention"
Mr.. Landis is certainly not ignorant
of the fact that there is dissfIection in
his party's ranks in this county.
Five of East Donegal's prominent citi-
zens and farmers have openly declared
against Boss Quay's ticket, and there
are intimations from many Republicans
that they will vote for Pattison.

There is wide and hospitable porch, at
the front entrance, large enough to hold
settee, piled high with soft cushions. There
are benches, several chairs-hospitality be-
ginning even before you step over the
threshold. Within, there is charming air
of comfort and luxury. The large, square
hall is a room in itself, as the modern hall
is designed TO be, with recessed window
which forms coy nook with window
seats. A carved oak table holds curious
japanese vase or jar; near it is a bouquet
OF roses lunches of freshly-gathered flow
ers greet you in every room in the house.
A large window over the secoud landing
on the stairs is entirely of stained glass, a
full-lenghth figure of some NEUROLOGICAL
character being depicted upon it.
Mr. Edison's study or library is at the
right of the hall. The book cases, which
line the sides of the room, are protected
with glass. A large fireplace. with its
mantel and polished brass apdirons and
fender take up nearly one side Of the room,
while double window in front occupies
another side A little nook or recess has
more books and a window of stained glass,
with Dante's head pictured upon it.
Dante, j take it, is favOrite author of
MIR. Edison's, for on the library table is a
superb edition of that authors works, illus
trated BY Dore. A small, bronze bust Of
Edison forms the standard 10 the drop
light or the library table, and was the gift
! Of friend.
Speaking Of lights, to see Mr. Edison's
really magnificent home in all its glory one
must visit it at night, when it glitters like
q fairy palace. with its innumerable cleo

there are two chandeliers with countless

Al beautiful and spacious apartment is
Mrs. Edison's drawing room, as the photo
graph indicates. There isan archway, sup
ported by onyx pillars, which gives lofty
look to the plan. The prettiest corner in
the room is where the piano stands, with a
stained glass window above a little statu-
ptte near il. and the door leading to the con-
Sservatory also near. Through the door is
