EDISON AND THE BEAR.
How the Great Inventor Received an Un
expected Visit.

| How the Great Inventor Received an I'm
expected Visit.
Thomas A. Edison's father, on one
| of his visits to Menlo park, brought
with him a surprise to his son, tame
bear that he had captured with his
own hands, says the New York World.
It was very late when he arrived,
and, finding that his son was on one of
his usual midnight ~ experimental
''sprees," he determined not to bother
him, and went to bed after first care
fully locking the cub in the cellar.
The experiments on which the ''wiz-
ard" was at work were the final ones
in the invention of the photograph.
MIR. Edison was kneeling on the floor
listening to the reproduction of an old
song, and his assistants were punched
behind him, with every nerve strained
to catch the far-off, curious sounds.
So intent were they that the stumbling
of heavy footsteps up the stairs and
the opening of the laboratory door
were unnoticed, and it was only when
heavy ''woof" drowned the imitation
song that the little group became
aware that a stranger was among
them.
The next instant the laboratory
shelves bore, instead of bottles, half a
dozen of the worst-scared scientists in
history.
Seeing the lack of disposition to
show him the inequalities of the
place, the bear started on tour of in
spection of his own. He used his
paws as the farmer from "Wayback"
uses his umbrella in art galleries, and
soon had the well-arranged workshop
in compound disorder. The shelved
scientists were wishing every minute
that he would seize high-voltage cir
cult which would give him a tenn
pOrary trance. But he was too wise for
that, and it began to look as if the
greatest problem Edison would have
to solve that, night was how to escape
the clutches of bear.
The beast was having a veritable
picnic in the electrical sanctum when
Mr.. Edison, ST., stalked into the room.
Explanations were soon made, the
bear was led downstairs and the cleo
hicians descended from their perches. =,

G. 3, T.. A,

The following local committees for the
coming meeting of the Golden Belt Ed
ucational association have been APP
pointed:
Committee on Reception and Enter
tainment-Prof. Schuyler Opp, Mrs. L.
ID. Monroe, Emma A. Hobbs, David Nc
Collum, Ida Blackburn, J. +. Barclay,
Mary Shepherd and A. L. Gleason.
This committee will secure stopping
places for visiting teachers, meet them
at the trains and make assignments
They will also act as committee on in
PRODUCTION, etc. Some of our guests will
arrive Thursday evening, November 80,
and part of them will remain until Sun
day morning. There will be five ses-
sions as follows: Friday morning, Fri
day afternoon and Friday evening; Sat-
urday morning and Saturday afternoon.
The committee on music will consist
of Hudson Harlan, Elise Neuenschwan-
der, Jesse WEIGH, Mayme Brown, Mrs.
L. A. Rea and Carrie Sweet. This COM
mittee will select appropriate music
suitable for the whole audience to join
in and secure books and an organist.
The Wa-keeney Glee club offer to fur
nish music for the Friday evening ses-
sion under the leadership of Pierce
Metz.
The success of the meeting and the
consequent reputation of Trego county
teachers and people will depend greatly
upon the success of these committees in
the duties assigned them, and l bespeak
for them the hearty assistance of our
citizens. l sincerely hope all persons
assigned to positions on committees or
on the program will overlook the fact
that have been unable to consult them
personally concerning their acceptance
of the same.
1t is expected that from 100 to $50
teachers will be in attendance. Visit
ing teachers will not expect entertain
ment gratis, but it will be necessary for
our citizens both public and private to
accord them q generous welcome to their
homes. A. S. PEACOCK,
County Superintendent.

attending and grant every facility for so
doing. Increased energy, enthusiasm

Washing OIlclnth.

Kitchen oilcloth does get shabby very often in a remarkably short time. and the manufacturer and the merchant who sold it get all the blame, whereas some of it should be shouldered by both mistress and maid. Tcpid water should be used in wiping up an oilcloth, and soap only where there are green spots. Wet only a small portion at time, and as soon as the dust and dirt are re- moved wipe perfectly dry. After the oilcloth is cleaned, go over it with a flannel wet with linseed oil. Use plenty of strength rubbing in the oil. Once a year give the oilcloth good coat of varnish. With proper treatment a good oilclOth lasts for years, and the colors keep bright even after constant use has worn parts of the oilcloth into holes.

LITTLE GIRLS CLOAK.

 Eight Cents.
How m Ingenious Woman Made Use of ' Grandpn's Worn and Faded Overcoat-- Domestic Economy That
 Counts.

7 Previous experiments in making over garments having proved successful, decided tO sve what l could do with an Overcoat when l found that my little girl needed a cloak for everyday wear, writes a lady correspondent to the Country Gentleman. It was not only satisfactory, but looks so much nicer than was anticipated that it is to be given the place of honor, and the last years best cloak is to be worn com monly.
 You will be surprised, think, and perhaps more interested in the garment, when l tell you that it cost just 5s cents. Two spools of black silk, 20 cents, and frogs to fasten the belt, hav- ing little astrakhan heads on them, cost ing SS cents.
 The overcoat used was faded and partly worn one of grandpa's that had, fortunately, a very pretty wrong side. It was ripped and cleaned and then a pattern chosen by which to model it.
 The cut given shows the one selected, and is a new style this season called the Russian Gretchen.
 The picture is all that is necessary to go by, as any common waist pattern may be used to cut the cloak waist by, only add three inches on each front to make it double breasted. The skirt part of the cloak requires the entire length of the coat, (unless the one used should be an ulsterl, from where the large pOCkctS are set in Above these is ample material for the waist When

ASTRONOMICAL OBSERVATIONS.

THE distance of the earth from the sun is about 92,OOO,OOO miles. The average distance of the moon from the earth is about 24O,OO miles. The sun is, therefore, nearly 400 times as far from us as the moon.
 IF the sun gave forth sounds loud enough to reach the earth, such sounds. instead of reaching us in the space of about eight minutes, as the light does, would only arrive after a period of nearly fourteen years.

Now place the patient on the chair and cover entirely with something heavy and close so no steam will escape.
