RomE's 4 N PERIOD
Time When the Ancient cisy's illus-
trous Persouaees Were Nearly
All NoeorlousIy Vicious.

II IL wellkncwn that there is In
Roman history a period which, from
the reputation that II bears. may well
be called infamous. This extends
from the death OF Sulia to the death
OF Nero. including the end Of the Re
public and the early years Of the en-
pire. This period has Z very bad
reputation: not only was 1t full OF
disorder. civil war. scandalous law
suits, but nearly all OF its most illus
trious personages were VIGOROUSLY
vicious. beginning with the most II.

All were deep in debt. drunkards.
g%luttons. spendthrifts: they were dis

giving themselves up to the most dc.

fanny that has not been attributed to
them. Only a very few have es-
capped from this universal ensure:
and. with the exception of Pompey
and Agrippa. those who did escape

Valve the idea Of a Boy Intent
on Play.

Among the governments patent X
hibits is a collection OF miniature
steam engines. Models Of the engines
of Hero. Of Alexandria, Of Newcomb
and Of Watt illustrate the successive
steps in the development Of what has
become the giant Of our modern in
dustry. There may be zen a model
Of the early engine upon which boys
were employed to turn the cocks that
alternating, let the steam5o OF and shut
1t of. One of these boys, Humphrey
Potter. by name. instead of settling
down like a machine to the monoton-
u work, kept his eyes open. He
discovered that q certain beam above
his head worked In unison with the
cocks that he opened and closed. He
accordingly connected the two, and
after seeing that the device worked
properly, ran OF to play. ;,
His employers began to notice n
much greater regularity in the move
ment of the engine than before; this
led to the discovery Of his secret, and
to the subsequent adoption Of his de-
vice everywhere. An examination of
the model of the engine to which the
scoggan was applied in me

Of 1t, but that anybody before him
should have failed to do 80. This is
the after thought" Of a great many
notable inventions. Opponents of the
patent system often raise the point
that all great inventions are Gin the
air" that the same suggestion sooner
or later will come to a great many
different men, and hence that the pat
ent is simply a reward to the one who
happens to arrive first.
Patent experts acknowledge con
siderable basis for this contention.
They say also that the lament often
seen in the newspapers. Ellis inven.

cret process, is rarely borne out by
events.

HARD TO AWARD THE CREDIT
Fully Seven Or Eight Scientists
Shared In the Invention and pevei-
opment Of the Thermometer.

It would be impossible to ascribe
the invention OF the thermometer to q
single scientist for the reason that
no less than seven or eight OF them
shared In its invention and develop
ment.
Calico was probably the first to de-
wise a crude form Of thermometer.
about 1897; then Drebbel Of Alcmaer
further perfected the instrument In
1909; Paulo Scarpi also contributed to
the work in the same year.. and In 1910
Sanctorio added to the instrument.
The Fahrenheit thermometer was in
vented in about 1926 and 500 after

development. 1t was not until the
eighteenth century, when Fahrenheit,

be reckoned, that it came to be of
any considerable value.
