WHEN THE LIGHT some time ago
referred to the Alliance as a third
party political, the Southern Mercury,
state organ of the Alliance, called the
LIGHT liar, poured out all the floods
of It's native billin gsgate, and it was
high tide, and in every conceivable
way attempted to bring discredit on
that statement. and charged that the
LIGHT was either maliciously lying3
or gross ignorant. The LIGHT has
famed that statement several times
by Observation-Disclosures authorizes
proving that the party is in politics
and is 30 recognized and SO recognizes
itself. Now comes into court the
speaker of the Kansas house of re-
representatives., and concering the ALI
ance as political body says:
"The election of a United States
senator and five congressman before
| the party is a year old is a greater
victory than was ever achieved by q
new party in any state. 1t puts
| Kansas to the front in this great
| movement, and this state may be
| called on to furnish the presidential
candidate in 1892"
And yet the Southern Mercury says
the LIGHT lies when 1t charges the
Alliance with being in politics.

churns, cradles, sewing machine de
wees, and the like. Corsets and all
such Improvements are generally the
inventions OF ladies'. Many other prac-
tical things are the result Of woman's
genius. Au inventive woman has
great deal of persistency, and will hold
on as long as there is a ghost OF show

Is it generally difficult to secure
patent?
That depends very much. In de-
vices OF the same class it requires a
complete change Of combination in
order to secure a patent. A slight
change Of some part or parts is not
sufficient, a great many things must
be borne in mind when seeking a
patent. There are always thousands
Of applications being considered, and

General Livingston looked calmly
at her.

Ginerva involuntarily clasped her
hands she grew pale.

eide whether | am right or wrong.
For me?
| have fallen in love with you,
Ginevra. Tell me-will yol be my
wife instead Of the children's gov
erness?
She stole one timid glance at him.
1t was as if some strong, serene
archangel had stopped from a celes-
tlal cline to ask her to nestle under
the shadow of his cleaning wings.
Did he suspect how long she'd wor-
shipped him? Had he penetrated
into the mysteries of her heart !?
That glance, however, was a suffi-
cient answer. He put out his hand
and drew her to his heart.
My darling my only darling !!
was all that he said.
Ginerva Hall was standing in the
shadow of the tree ferns in the con-
servatory that evening when the
gardner showed in a young lady. 1t
was her sister.

has been to see me. Surely she has
not succeeded in making you dis

THE MYSTERY OF MISS OR MRS.

All woman out Of their teens are en-
titled to be STYLED "Mistress" (says a
writer in the Lady,; "Miss" is merely
diminutive, and Is properly confined to
young girls, just as Master is common
ly confined to schoolboys. In the days
of Pope, "Mrs." was the common ap-
pellation of unmarried ladies. Sir
Walter Scott, too speaks of Joanna (nn-
married) as Mrs. Joanna Balllie.
There are nova days plenty ofspin-
sters-and young spinsters, too-whc
insist on being addressed as ''Mrs" and
at one or two places in Sussex curious
" enough, the married lady receive
the title of "Mrs." The same custo
is found in many parts of Ireland.
The form "Mrs." was at one til
applied indiferently to persons at
ages. Now days our servants
expect to have their letters addres
as "Miss.'' There is story told
certain maid Of -allwork, who tr
ferred her savings, upon the Posto
Saving Bank, and she was asked
she did 1t.

MANS INVENTIVE GENIUS.
1t Runs Toward Storage Batteries and Car
Couplings at Present.

Which way does mans inventive
genius seem to tend at present? asked
a reporter OF a we'll known patent law
yer.
Toward cheap inventions, answered
he. This is essentially an age of utility,
and the cheaper any practical invented
device can be made ail the better.
Electric motors are probably claim
ing the attention of as many inventors
as any other one thing. Storage bat
teries are the desideratum. They are
placed on cars, under the seat, and
furnish motive power enough to propel
a car the course of an ordinary round
trip, when one battery is taken out and
another substituted, and so on, thus
avoiding the use of all the machinery
now necessary. Many of these storage
batteries are good, too. Electric lights
have good following, too, among
electrical inventors The tendency is
to produce something good and cheap.
Fire escapes and smoke consumers
claim the attention of many practical
inventors. Some excellent devices
have been recently patented. One in,
vention is a kind OF ladder which can
be placed instantaneously outside or
building. 1t is a decided novelty
and beats anything yet out. 1t will
probably be placed on one of the new
structures which are in course of con-
structlon in this city now.
Car breaks of all kinds are always
being invented. In fact, the attempts
to secure cheap and rapid transit by
means OF some mechanical device are
perhaps as numerous as anything else.
Everything pertaining to cars, engines,
railroad tracks or motor power in any
way has thousands of devotees who are
laboring to invent something more
practical than anything in present use.
Take car couplings, for Instance. There
have already been granted $4,000
patents on inventions of that class.
Many other things pertaining to the
safety of men who are employed on
railroad trains are patented nearly as
often. But Car couplings probably
lead.
Cash machines, cash registers, penny
slot machines, and such contrivances
are popular, too, with many invent ors
Another practical device which claims
the attention of inventors is the ice
machine. Some wonderful improve
ments have Leen made with those
machines during the past year. The
telephone formerly had its followers
but of late years they have decreased
The invention seems to have reached
its perfection, at least for while. The
same is true of the graphophone. These
devices once created craze among ;
certain class of inventors who, seeking
to follow Edison, thought that they
could easily immortalize themselves by
inventing something in this line. |
