non-comnrunfcative and grumpy. His
wife tried him with this story Of one Of
his children:

where" said that's the end of them"
do they turn to dust?' she asked.
Yes, just turn to dust" 1 said.

eyes grew as big as saucers, When

Patents and How to Make Money Out
of Them" by w. b Hutchinson and
J. A. E. Criswell. D. Van Nostrand
company, New York. Price, 81 20:
In this little volume of 232 pages Messrs.
Hutchinson & Criswell, well-known mem
bers of the New York bar, have con-
6ensed a great deal of valuable informa-
ton in regard to patents. They define
inventions, the filing of applications, and
discuss at considerable length the intro
duction and sale of patented products.
They bring out in the repeating of a story
by Dr. N. D. Hills the fact that a wom-
an was the first known inventor, though
she secured no patent on her handiwork
DR.. Hills said:
"a thousand years ago the race dwelt
to the east of the river Jordan. Men came
&c little caves and these little caves had
little doors, and these doors were hung
or hinges. Years before that a young
girl with a bloom on her cheek lived
with her parents in one of these caves.
and one Sunday night came a young
man from over the hills to see the girls
father the first time The next day she
said: Now, father, why couldn't this
family have two caves, one for home
folks and one for company? and the
father said yes, and the next Sunday
night the young man came over to see
the girls mother perhaps, and after that
the young girl said: Father, we ought
to have a door between the two caves
so that it can be shut And she wanted
a door hinge, that the door might be
closed at will between the two caves.
They had never seen hinges, so she got
her wits to work to invent door hinge,
and she made one of the first inventions
man ever saw. Here is the model of all
the hinges in the world, the elbow"
In discussing what constitutes inven-
ton the following well-turned sentence
is given: 1.-The real distinction between
invention and mere skill is that one is
produced by original thought, while mere
skill utilities the discoveries Of others."
Discussing what to invent and how to
invent, the volume says: There was q

"a Gentleman Player" by Robert Neil
For sale by the st. Paul Book and
Stationery companyss
In the days Shakespeare and good
Queen Bess, both of whom play minor
parts in the story the events IN this mar
rative take place. The author has the
art of making his characters living and
intensely human, of taking them out Of
their usual bookish environments and
bringing them into a world of action,
emotion and romance. One feels SYM
pathetic acquaintance with the wonder

eccentric Ben johnson and, above all,
with the gentleman player, Hal Marryat.

How to Cook Husbands by Elizabeth
Strong Worthington. The Dodge Pub
fishing company, New York For sale
by the st. Paul Book and Stationery
company.
The title does not appeal to men nor
to philanthropists. 1t has the smell of
the kitchen upon it, as well as the odor
of barbaric age. 1t is a nice piece of
bookmaking, but on the dainty blue cover
in gracious little gilt letters, there stands
the legend: How to Cook Husbands!'
1t was really too bad of the lady to try
to scare off readers in this manenr and
the judicious publisher should not have
permitted it.
All the same 1t is the work of

touch of f1neness about it almost as good
