NOT so HARD As IT SEEMS,

A patent strikes most people as an appall
inEly formidable thing. The idea is that an
inventor must be natural genius, like Edi
son or Bel; that he must devote years to
delving in complicated mechanical problems
and that he must spent fortune on delicate
experiments before he can get new device to
patentable degree of perfection. This delu-
sion the company desires to dispel. 1t desires
to get into the head of the public a clear COM
prehension of the fact that it is not the great,
complex, and expensive inventions that bring
the best returns to their authors, out the lit
tie, simple, and cheap ones-the things that
seem so absurdly trivial that the average citi-
zen would feel somewhat ashamed of bringing
them to the attention of the Patent Office.
Edison says that the profits he has received
from the patents on all his marvellous inven-
lions have not been sufficient to pay the cost
OF his experiments. But the man who con-
ceived the idea of fastning q bit of rubber
cord to childs ball, SO that it would come
back TO the hand when thrown, made fortune
out of his scheme. The modern sewing-ma-
chine Is smiracle of ngenuity-the product of
the toll of hundreds of busy brains through
hundred and fifty years, but the whole bril-
liant result rests upon the simple device of
putting the eye of the needle at the point in
staad nj of 9TH

The venerable Charles Brigham, who
was employed in the Boston postoftice
for 90 years, gives some amusing reni-
niscences of the ''good old tines of 1888,
and later, when the mail was transport
ed from incoming steamers on wheel
barrows and dumped unsorted on the
floor. In such cases the clerks had to
work % hours day till the rush was
over, and that on a salary of $500 year.
For many years the Office was in the old
statehouse, and Is men did all the work.
Boston is now alleged to have one Of the
best Offices in the United States, and the
postmaster recently remarked regarding
the financial affairs: Massachusetts is
one of the few states that pays. Our

The Stream Of Life.
Like . small streamlet on mountain side,
A white thread glancing in the summer sun.
Light down leaping with a joyous spring,
So passes happy childhood's playful hour.
{ Next, through green dells and meath o'ershad-
owing crags
The growing stream with needless low winds
on:
{ Now gladly lingering round some glowing isle
That smiles with heavenly beauty and allures5
With promises Of perpetual delights:
/ Now fercely dashing down some rough cas-
cade,
Where rushing waters split on hostile rocks. s.
Spouting aloft the iridescent spray
Drlfted IN sunless clefts by swaying winds.
So pass the years Of youth. Our ripper age
4 g like the broadened rivers stately march,
whose current slackens, yet admits no pause
But passes field and coppice, tower and town,
4 Not wholly 'scaping from dedling stains.
Yet toiling onward restlessly. Ad0wn
Its smooth yet ever sliding stream we haste
Nor mark the progress Of It's quiet speed.
TIN, faster rushing as It nears the end,
4 lt sweeps US onward In resistless course
Through the torn rapids Of disease and pAins
WI, g!ungtng down the cataract Of DEATH
We glide into Q vast and unknown space
Tho boundless ocean Of eternity.
