From the London Mirror.
Fifty pairs of dainty boots and shoes
nave just been sent home to Miss Edna

They were her wedding order, cost
ing close upon $3.50 and comprising

gowns.
The evening shoes are adorned with
jeweled buckles made specially in Paris
to Miss Edna Mays designs. Some
are in the shape of hearts. and others
made.
Miss Edna May has a very neat,
tiny foot" said the makers, Messrs. II.

remarkable the number of letters we

theatrical profession asking for boots
and shoes Just like hers.
People who have seen her plays
say they must nave them made or
the same last.
"One gentleman wrote the other day
asking II we could let him have a pair
of Miss Mays own shoes. Unless she
has worn Them he said. I will moi
have them. but IL they have been ne,
own l am prepared TO pay any price
for them"
Miss May wears a shoe between q

tily fashioned instep and the thinnesI

Dickens Spoke to Him.

FROM tDc 1Uutn y companion.
Henry c. Robinson. a witty lawyer, who
used to live in Hartford, Conn, told the
following anecdote one evening when he
was introducing an English author TO q
Hartford audience:
The most famous Englishman whom ]
| ever saw was Charles Dickens. who lee
tulrcd here in Hartford when l was D
! young boy.
~ had read some of the stories of this
| great writer and ! was most anXioue TO
catch "A glimpse Of the man himself. Sc
on the afternoon when he was expected 10
arrive l walked up and down the street I'D
| front of the hotel where l knew he was
to stay.
."rhe hotel was built close to the side
walk and the long windows of the parior
were so low that the passerby could easily
see into the room.
Il soon realized that a gentleman was
sitting within reading a paper. j steppeo'
close up under the window and pressed
my face against the glass, eager TO get p
good look at the stranger. Yes. 1t was
he. II really was, ] had seen his picture
often and couldn't be mistaken. ! stared
and stared, anxious to impress every fea-
tufc upon my memory. After n rev mo-
mcnts he turned and saw me there, the
little eager Yankee boy. gazing up at ms
face; and then the famcls man. laying
aside his paper. actually spoke, so that
really heard the voice of the great Charles
Dickens himself and he WAS really talking
to me-
Here Mr.. Robinson paused impressively
and some one on the platform inquired.
'.Wha, did he say, Mr.. Ron.nson?"
He said replied Mr.. Robinson, in subA
dued tones, Go away, little boy; GO
