An Edison Inyention Idle.

Ten years ago Mr.. Edison applied for
patent in his own country for new
method of generating electricity, which
is now made public. 1t consists Of a
furnace on which is placed an iron pot
or crucible, through the closed cover of
which stout rod of aarbon passes down
to near the bottom Of the crucible, where
1t is surrounded by dry metallic oxides
or other compounds capable of attacking
carbon under heat and in rarefied air.
The closed crucible is connected with an
exhaust fan by an exhaust pipe. This
invention seems to have been abandoned
by Edison. AT all events, it has not as
yet come into practical use. London

TALE OF TWO BABIES.

True Story of Boston Life Related by &
Radcliffe College Girl.
The car was crowded when reached
1t, and there was only one vacant seat
in the front, which was glad to occu-
py. just as settled back, with sigh
of satisfaction, even before ] had a
chance to become curious about my
neighbor, heard from the rear of the
car baby's fretful cry and wearied
mothers voice trying to soothe the tired
child. Mingled with these sounds came
a second mothers tone, drawing but
complacent.
MED, " she said, ''hear that poor lit
tie sing try. Ned is dood baby. He
never criesi''
OF course my curiosity was aroused,
and turned to see the rival babies and
their mammas. The fussy little one was
in full sight. One rosy cheek rested on
the shoulder of neat but travel stained
little woman. The pretty, baby blue
eyes were filled with tears, the chubby
little fellow was sucking his thumb and
doing his best to go to sleep, but the
time and the place were against him.
The patient, dark eyes of the mother
rested lovingly on the sweet. troubled
face of her boy as she rocked him softly
in her arms.
All this / saw in a moment, and l
then tried to look beyond this interest
ing mother and her natural boy to that
wonderful baby that never cried and to
his proud parent. could not see them,
however, because the restless little head
hid them from me, but every now and
then there came to my ear the hush of
one voice, followed by the proud tone of
the other.
At last the train stopped with one of
those backing, humping motions with
which we are all familiar. Then the
terrified scream of the thoroughly
aroused baby made the nervous mother
hasten to leave the car as quickly as
possible. Following her and close be-
hind her was fat woman, with wrin-
kles in the back Of her neck and a large,
snowy hat. She lifted her baby up with
one jeweled hand, and as she kissed him |
on the pug nose drawled out: "Ned's a
dood boy. Ned's mammals own sweet, |

BEWARE or FRESH OLIVES.
How n California Planter Amuses Himself
Mt tho Expense Of Innocent Travellers.

How q California Planter Amuses Himself
mt the Expense of Innocent Travellers.
Eastern visitors in California are al
ways much interested in the olive plan
tations which, in recent years, have be-
come feature of the most southerly
counties of the state. The lovers of the
suoculent fruit when picked and bot
tied for sale in the east and north are
always anxious to taste the olive fresh
and ripe. There is a popular impression
that 1t is sweet and delicious; but, like
many other popular impressions, this is
a delusion and snare.
A few miles south of San Diego,
where the railroad makes a junction
with small one track road leading into
Mexico, a large planter has taken adj
vantage of this delusion for his own
amusement. On the arrival of each train
from the north numerous travellers dis
mount to wait the starting of the train
across the Mexican border. For their
benefit the planter has nailed a box out
side of his fence just across the way
from the railroad station which he keeps
filed with nice, ripe olives. A plaoard
invites victims in these words:
FINE, FRESH, RIPE OLIVES,
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1894-10-31
FINE. FRESH. RIPE OLIVES,
HELP YOURSELF.

OF course there is rush from the sta
ton as soon as the box and its contents
are discovered. and swarms Of innocents
seize the pretty fruit and dig their teeth
into it. Then there is a combined howl
and great deal of expectoration and
disgust, for the delusive fruit are near
ly as puckery as persimmons.
And the planter? Oh, he takes his fun
from partly hidden summer house
within his grounds, where he occasion
ally seats himself to enjoy the spectacle.
1t is sure cure for the blues, he says.

Novelties In Ladies' Skirts.

The portion of the costume which
seems to be the leading subject OF en-
quiry at the present moment is the
skirt. While bodices and sleeves are
still following to some extent the gen.
eral lines of the former season, skirts
are the absorbing theme of interest
in the new importations. Great is
their variety. The question of choice
embraces an extensive field, both of
extreme novelties and simple practical
designs. Models to suit every taste
and occasion are illustrated in the
popular Mcdowell Fashion Journal"
which we have at hand. One finds,
moreover, in these magazines in their
coupon patterns, q feature exceedingly
convenient for those who desire a
cheaper grade OF patterns than the
more expensive made up models.
Among these coupon pattern are seen
some artistic and practical skirt de-
signs filling very appropriately gen.
eral demand TOR the latter. ola Mode
