It ia one of Kdison's latest perfec tiona. Ibe user talks into one ma chine, which nukes the record. A business man can talk onto one of these records some fifteen or twenty business letters. His stenographer then takes the record when she de sires, puts it into her machine and bears reeated the letters that have been dictated, and as the machine runs she writes the letters with her tyH-writer as if they were being dic tated by the man in person. There is still a third machine, which is nothing more than a turning latffft on which the records that I.bca kun i ai.ri bm Ipimmail .4 flu I IIC 11 U VJ Nil llllllllltM u-'nu for use again. The machine is a great time saver, and enables a man to dictate when bo chooses and the stenographer to write when she wishes.

J o a The first and second meetings of the Thalia Book Club almost over lapped each other. The initial meet ing was convened at the home of Mrs. Nereus English on Houston street. After a short social session. Miss Mary Davis, the president, made a few remarks relative to procuring reference books for the study pro gram, the subject Ix-ing "The French (evolution and Napole-ro." The year's woi k was happily started off by Mrs. Warren Stack's paper on "Causes of the Revolution," and this was followed by one on "Parties and 1-eaders" by Miss Anna Chreitberg, who also led in the discussion of current events. After the literary program Mrs. English led the way to the dining room which was brightened by a huge center vase of sunllowers. At each cover was a booklet beautifully hand-painted in purple and gold asters. This contained a numlier of questions on "cakes" which proved to be very absorbing. Between the salad and ice courses each member was given envelopes and paper and requested to write two impromptu letters to Misses Mary aud Susie Cov ington, who were to leave soon for an extended visit in the middle West and Texas. These letters were to be opened on different dates during their stay. Special attention was given to mak ing welcome the guests of the after noon, Misses Mallitt of Wilmington and the club's new member, Miss Caroline Parker. o e o - The second meeting of the Thalia Book Club with Miss Edna Harris at Mrs. L. C. Bickett's was character ized by two strong papers. Miss Bright Ogburn read a description of "Tho Bastile," and Miss Mary Davis a character sketch of Marie Antoi nette. The general discussion of these was very instructive. The social feature of the meeting was a hallow en frolic over the lunch eon in the darkened dining room ighted only by a big jack o-lantern centerpiece. Small candles, around each oi which a ridiculous white mouse was twisted, were placed by the plates, and each guest had to light her can dle and guard its flame during the luncheon. Each one was called on fcr a ghost story and in the hurly- burly most of the candles were put out, leaving only the horrid jack-o- lantcrn grinning. The favors were bon-bon boxes in the shape of black books, fittingly entitled "Uhost Sto nes. Opening of Public Schools.
