A lawyer in western city once

tination he found he had forgotten the

dozens Of successful inventions patent
ed for women by their employers and
produced under the firm name. Other
inventions are purchased outright
from women before they are patented.
This Is especially true of novelties
In cosmetics, toys. simple kitchen
utensils and dressmaking finishings.

trustful days are over. But in love
affairs ones own self is ones very
best friend, as we'll as ones worst
