Food ond uel a'e the Two most important items OF
WASTE in our economy of life and OF these we have
only limited, without touching s b st OF others.
We will orig notice one other waste DOW aud only
do that to waste Of time in another place.
Some men thsir iives in finding out cunning
invent Us, shich they hide uocer busbel, or IN
some other wsste,ul place where their light never car
shire out upon the world.
We have q case in point: A short time since we
gave Nc .ce TO the world tn At some man had invented
window oaance 10 suoer sede weights aud Pu Ieys,
AID that the Invention WAS useful one. Now, cor.
respondent writee that he Is very anxious to know

both time and money in not letting the world know

great community.
