Invention as a Business.

Commenting on a recent article
whose writer laments that more per-
sons 90 not take up inventing as a
regular business, the Electric Review
(London) says I'VE doubt whether
inventing in the highest sense can be
made a business to be learned by any
body. Inventors are born. not made.
Our own country is not lacking in the
divine inspiration, If we are to Judge
by the number Of patents applied for;
a different conclusion might be ar
rived at If we were to judge by the
quality. America appears to be the
special breeding ground of the inven-
ter. The peculiar mixture Of all races
in that fortunate land appears to have
produced a kind of superman who
alone is capable of creating such dia-
bolical inventions as the cash regis
ter and the automatic telephone ex-
change"

A fierce resentment had succeeded
Algernon's first stunned surprise at
| the suddenness of the attack, and this
resentment had been growing all
through the night and the following
morning. BY the time the bell rang for
recess Algernon was keyed up to the
pitch of revenging his wrong. He was
afraid of the Biggest Boy, but he felt
that the family honor must be vindi-
Gated So he walked up to the bully
when he reached the school yard and
with trembling lips announced:
you've got to fight me-"
The bully was not used to receiving
challenges in just that tone of voice.
He marked the trembling lips and the
pale cheeks
"A-w-w-w," he growled, and struck
Algernon across the mouth. q. Then
Algernon saw red. He did not know
exactly what followed. but for a space
the world seemed to stand still while
he and the Biggest Boy did things.
Presently a shout went up and to his
surprise he saw his enemy upon the
ground
1t was Algernon who was repri-
manded by Teacher that afternoon,
but there was a twinkle in Teachers
eye and Algernon could not hei- but
feel, in spite of her rebuke. II lie
was secretly rejoiced at tn II
of the bully.
That afternoon AlgernOn, in worse
case than ever as to his apparel was
escorted to the door by his admiring
followers. His parents, hearing the /
clamor from afar. came out to meet /
him.
"Oh. my poor boy" cried his moth /

But his father grinnod.

THE REBELLION

ladies and children. by a nurse, until
he reached the age of f2. Then his

at this suggestion. but the father (who

Upon his answering in a meek

rumpled Algernon's carefully brushed
hair. mauled his collar, rolled him in
the dust to the detriment of his cor

maltreated him. He was only saved
from further injury by the bell that
announced the end of recess.
Algernon was Inundated as well as
dishevelled, and 1t was small comfort
to have Teacher, who had seen the on
