London, Jan. 6.-Lord Masham, one
of the greatest inventors of the last
century, has published a handsomely
bound and interesting volume, telling
the story of his struggles and his tri-
umphs in Yorkshire and in Manning
ham, where the very name of Masham
is revered, for his colossal schemes have
meant food for thousands.
Wool combing and silk combing were
special studies of Lord Masham, who,
with his brother, commenced business
in 1888 as worsted spinners, under the
name of j. and S. C. Lister.
The inventive genius Of the man
speedily asserted itself, and in 1874 he
took out his first patent for fringing
shawls. Many disappointments at
tended his early efforts to improve wool
combing. He took out patents for
washing and preparing long and short
wool, and in 1853 finished his research
u this direction by %patenting a process
Cor the treating with soapsuds.
. His Boast for Years.
"For many years. he says, 81 use6

my brain, as it made me several thou.
sands a year. In ten years, from 1913
to 1853, I had left nothing much fol-
anyone else to do except to improve
upon what I had done. The silk comb
was the result Of purchasing the silk
waste. It looked to me to be nothing
but rubbish at half penny per pound
Experiment with it meant a great
expenditure, and Lord Masham tells
an interesting story Of the burden
which he had taken upon himself. He
wanted assistance, and the governor Of
the Bank Of England sent for him, an6
with great kindness and considerable,
asked him questions with a view f
giving him help. Finally came til
question as to whether he thought h
could pay his way. Lord Masham say
his pride rose in a moment, and will
color in his face he said he thought h
could. eve are delighted to hear it,
said the governor. "Good morning,
and the visitor was bowed out.
His Pride and Fall.
When in the street he saw his folly
cit would have saved me a world c
trouble and immense loss if I had "nl,
