It was Moyer’s torn for invention that
caused the disaster. Moyer designed a new
kind of “patent, inflated gossamer bustle”
for ladies. It was a thin bag of india rubber,
which was to be inflated witu gas to give it
the proper distension and sufficient lightness.
When the model was completed, Mis. Moyer
“settled the hash” of poor “Aby,” who was
conducted to the apartment for new patients.
In vain did he attempt to expostulate and
explain. The doctor’s only answer was that
he understood his case, and advised him to
remain quiet- that excitement was injurious,
and would only delay his recovery.
Having attended to our business, Berry and
I started fof the depot. On the way down he
determined to try it. She went into the yard explained to me the facts of the case, and said

country. It would be very inconvenient
for instance, if a man, while walking :
down Chestnut street, should suddenly
have a conviction that his salvation de- j
pended upon his standing still upon one
leg for forty-seven years, just where he
was. It would attract attention and inter- i

regard it as Lis duty to buy an alligator, j
and keep it in a puddle in Lis yard, and steal
babies from the orphan asylums, and feed
them to the alligator ? We should want to !
