PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION.


Some Curious Information on the SC5ject
From Famous Doctor.
A correspondent has been interview
ing Dr. Robert Fischer of Vienna, who
is well known as an expert in all that
pertains to cosmetics and has obtained
from him some curious information.
When is your regular season, doc
tor?' the correspondent asked
We'll, you see, have twofold sea-
son--the social and the individual The
former is the ball and party season The
latter depends upon the betrothal or mar
riage Of individuals, and may coincide
with any period Of the year. "
'Marriage?" the correspondent asked
in surprise.
"Quite marriage Numbers of
mothers put their daughters through a
whole course of Identification previous
to launching them out in that sea of
trouble. That's the time when the most
elaborate preparations of the human
frame are ordered and undertaken

for the most fashionable balls Of the

old. yet youthful. He had smooth face
and great deal of it. His silk hat was

of his high and broad forehead He had
an excellent nose, good chin and jaw

was bordering deeply. He did not wear
the angelic countenance of Bob Inger-

infidel. In his face there was neither
guile nor malice. Yet there was the one
man in this country who would dare to
override judge and jury and ask wit

lawyer out of court. Never in the his

THE BABY WOULDN'T CRY.
How Edison Finally Secured Record
His Firstborn's Woe.

HIS Firstborn's Woe.
Here is a story they tell over the tee
cups in Orange, N. j., where Edison
lives:
The photograph came to tho Edison
| laboratory and the first baby to tho Edi-
son home about tho Same time, and
when the baby was old enough to say
"Goo-goo" and pull the great inventors
hair in a most disrespectful manner, the
monograph was near enough perfection
to capture the baby talk for preserva-
tion among the family archives So Mr..
Edison filled up several rolls with these
pretty inarticulations and laid them
carefully away.
But this was not sufficient The most
picturesquething about the baby S utter
ances was its crying, and the record Of
this its fond father determined to se-
cure How it would entertain him in
his old age, he thought. to start the
photograph a-going and hear again the
baby walls of his firstborn.
So one afternoon Mr.. Edison tore him.
self from his work and climbed the big
hill leading to his house. He went in a
great hurry, for be is a man who
grudges every working moment from
his labor. A workman followed at his
heels carrying the only monograph that
at that time had been sufficiently COM
pleted to accomplish really good results.
Reaching home and the nursery Mr..
Edison started the monograph and
brought the baby in front of it. But the
baby didn't cry. MI. Edison tumbled
the youn2ster about and rumpled Its
hair and did all sorts OF things, but still
the baby didn't CRY. Then he made
dreadful faces, but the baby thought
they were very funny and crowed JOY
ously. So back to the laboratory went
Mr.. Edison in very unpleasant frame
of mind, for the baby's untimely good
humor had cost him an hour OF work
The phonosraph was also taken back
But he did not give 1T up. The next
afternoon he went home again, and the
photograph with him. But if the baby
was good natured the day before this
time it was absolutely cherubic. There
was nothing at all that its father could
DO that dld not make the baby laugh.
Even the monograph itself, with It's
tiny, whlrrlng wheels, the baby thought

She is daughter of the late Arch
duke Joseph of Austria, was born Au-
gust %, 1886, and was married August
23, 1858, to Prince Leopold of Belgium,
son of King Leopold l., who assembled
the throne at the death of his father as
Leopold H., December 10, 1865. The
queen is the mother OF Princess Stepha-
ME of Austria, widow of Crown
Prince Rudolph, only son of the en-
peror of Austria.
The queen is noted for her piety and
charity. In recognition of her devo-
ton to the church the pope
sent to her two years ago the gold
en- Rose of Virtue, consecrated gift,
solemnly blessed by the supreme pom
tiff and bestowed as token of the
high esteem of the head of the church
of Rome
Originally the token was a single,
simple flower of wrought gold, stained
or tinted with red, in imitation of the
natural color. Afterwards the golden
petals were adorned with rubies and
other gems, and finally the form adopt
ed was that of a thorny branch with
several flowers and leaves and one chief
flower at the top, all of pure gold, with
the exception of the precious stones
with which the principal parts are en-
bellished.
This decoration is not often conferred,
and it is considered of such consequence
that it is either presented by the pope
in person or forwarded by deputy of
the highest ecclesiastical standing and
consideration
