nothing to sustain him against his adver-

ally insures success to an inventor who has
made anything that the public really wants.
] There are two considerations, however,
: N the singleness of right that is implied In

y1ofit by his work, and the other is that the
public shall likewise profit by it. The one
gains money; the other pays it to him in
exchange for his new convenience. II he

manufacture, he might as well have kept
still about his discovery and saved the
money that the process of securing pat.

Of prosperity for their work, but latterly
ihey are disposed to regard the public as
made for their enrichment. In most COM
nercial or speculative essays it is thought
to be well If u gain of Z or 8 per cent year
