Invented by . Woman.

There are many instances where
women have "invented" articles for con-
venicnce and Of practical usefulness, for
which patent has never been applied,
though not the less patentable or appre-
ciated, as the following instance, which
shows not only the ability but the genius
with which she is by nature endowed
The article was devised % by woman
In Connecticut, the fatherland Of invent
i've genius and Yankee ingenuity, the
land Of steady habits, wooden clocks,
wooden nutmegs and red oak hams.
The lady was one day using the carving
knife, which probably, from too frequent
contact with bones and the stovepipe,
which q woman generally uses for a
steel. with uncertain results. had become
rather dull, and the handle of which, in
her frantic efforts to ''carve dat postum, I"
twisted about and hurt her delicate
digits.
At last, after several desperate and
hazardous attempts, she turned sharply
to her better half, who sat by calmly
viewing the situation, and probably re-
Aecting on the chances Of life and death
and the prospect OF square meal, and
asked: Cant you invent handle that
won't twist about and hurt sos' With
fear and trembling lest his answer should
cause his irate spouse to scalp him on the
spot. the good man answered that he
could not. swell lean" was the reply,
and with the impetuosity provcrbiai Of
her sex she left the room and soon re-
turned with triumphant air and piece

iit her hand, and, holding 1t up to the
admiring, though crestfallen, lord, said:
