EDISON AND THE BEAR.
HoR the Great Inventor Received an On.
expected Visit.

HoR the Great Inventor Received an Un-
expected Visit.
Thomas A. Edison's father, on one
Of his visits to Menlo park, brought
with him surprise to his son, tame
bear that he had captured with his
own hands, says the New York World.
1t 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 phonograph.
Mr. 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 faroff, curious sounds.
So intent were they that the shambling
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
dozen of the worst-scared scientists in
history.
Seeing the lack of disposition to
show him the hospitalities 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, Sr., stalked into the room.
Explanations were soon made, the
bear was led downstairs and the elec.
tricians descended from their perches.

The distant runblings of war at last
penetrated the little western village
where they lived. and women's hearts
failed them, knowing that the call for
their loved ones would surely come
Then Drusilla awoke from the blissful
dream in which she had INDUCED to the
reality of heartache and q startling
consciousness of the fact which IS
either fraught with much 10Y or sor-
row to a woman, viz. that her heart
was no longer in her own keeping
irrevocably given to another. The call
for men came even sooner than was an
ticipated, and Hugh was one of the first
to offer himself. Notwithstanding her
grief Drusilla would not have had it
otherwise Her ideal was a brave man,
stalwart and fearless--but oh, the mis-
cry of it! Her father and young broth
er were likewise going; the one on the
extreme limit of age permissible. and
the other almost too young for service,
but they were ready and willing, and
the women were too loyal to their coun-
try to say them nay.
The last night before the men start
ed, the two families of the Manuings
and Dexters met at the latter's house
for farewell supper. Beneath the
pleasant flow of genial neighborly
chat there lay the deep current of
to which none would give voice lest the
others should be disheartened- Drusilla
waited on the table with a white face
and compressed look about her
mouth, telling of a speechless grief
harder to bear because it must not find
voice
1t was an evening in June. The roses
were in full bloom and filled the air
with their sweetness. The scent of
roses reminded Drusilla of that even
ing for many years after Weary of
the strain of keeping up appearances
the girl went for a breath of air down
the garden path between the rose
bushes. A sense of desolation. too uu-
defined for language, lay like a heavy
burden on her heart Hearing foot
step on the walk she hastily turned,
dreading the interruption to these few
stolen moments of freedom from re-
straint A glance at the supposed in
truder sufficed to bring the color to her
white lips
''What did you run away for, Dru-
silla?" said Hugh, cheerily. 'Why, you
surely are not crying because we 60 to
fight our country's battles and, please
God, to return with honor to our friends.
You must exercise faith and courage,
Drusilla. it is the only way to endure
these separations"
II cannot, Hugh 1t is far easier for
you to 60 than for us who remain to
stay at home and weep" replied the
girl, tearfully.
"How do you know that, Drusilla-
l."
There was no opportunity for further
speech, the rest of the family joined
them and the conversation became gen.
eral The summons came earlier than
was expected in the morning and leave
takings were of necessity brief Faith
and courage-those two words burned
themselves, as it were. into Drusilla's

HER OPINION OF IT.

A Curious Couple and the Congressman
from Their District.
''ODce when ] was in one of my back
counties" said a Tennessee congress-
man, II stopped at a small hotel where
l was an object of curiosity to a couple
of natives, evidently man and wife
was sitting out on a little porch in
front of the house reading a newspa-
per. and they were watching me as if
were some kind of a new creation. but
l tried to remain unconscious of it, be-
hind my paper. Finally they began to
talk.
"'Who d. you reckon he is?' queried
the woman in a half whisper.
"'Dunno; sposin' l AK him?' he ven
tured, quite as curious as she was.
You dasn't,' she said in a tone inn
plying that she hoped he would, and
he did. and told him l was the con-
gresham from that district. He went
back to her smiling.
"Guess who?' he said.

Hugh's silence and long absence He
had written to Drusilla, asking her to

was lost. He was injured in the head

If. like the soldiers widows, she
could have laid flowers on the grave Of
her loved one. and thought of him in
the rest of Heaven, her burden would
have grown light in comparison. but
this was not to be wherefore she knew
not.
The problem of the children's white
dresses, on the day on which our story
opened, occupied her mind some time
after their departure Money was
scarce with her just now, sickness had
thrown her behind, and for awhile
rigid economy had to be exercised.
"Why not give them your white
dress; you will never have it made up
for yourself" whispered common sense.
Now this white dress was the only
tangible thing poor Drusilla felt she
had to look at connected with the one
romance in her life. AS such she priced
it, and had kept it wrapped up in blue
paper to preserve its color.
YES" she said to herself, 1T will
make them two beautiful dresses. and
as soldier children they will decorate
the graves"
Myrtle and Myra were in transports
of joy over the prospect of their new
white dresses. Myrtle was especially
jubilant, too much SO to notice her
aunt's face as she folded the goods and
put them away. Myra, however, whom
little escaped, observed it, and told

of gold on her hair and a rosy tint on
her cheeks.
