THE INVISIBLE MAN
Believe it or not, a young Hungarian is claiming a ray-producing invention which can render the visible invisible! Ho says his ray can make a man disappear while his' hat remains in sight; a juggler vanish while the balls be conjures with continue tossing in full view. So wild a vision seftms to give reality to the imaginary adventures, of old Peter, W. S. Gilbert's hero, 011 whom a fairy conferred the gift of invisibility at will: — Old I'otor vanished like a shot, Hut then his suit o£ clothes did not! So there remained a coat ol blue, A vest, a double eyeplass too. His tails, his shoes, his socks as well. With the result that his angry wife seized his garments and hid tliem, making it impossible for old Peter ever to become visible again.
