to IS points.

lean A. c., won the 100 and 200 yard
dashes, and ]. l. Wendell, New York A.
c., finished first in the 100 and DO yard
hurdles. Hannes Kolehmainen, running

LIFE.

Lettme but live my life from year to
year., /.
With forward face and unreluctant
soul,
Not Fastening to, nor turning from the
goal,
Not mourning for the things that dis
appear
In the dim past, nor holding back in

From what the future wells. but with
a whole
And happy heart. that pays it's toll
To Youth and Age, and travels on with
cheer.
So let the way wind up the hill or
down,
Though rough or smooth, the Journey
will be Joy;
Still seeking what I sought when but
a boy,
New friendship, high adventure. and a
! shall grow old. but never lose life's
zest,
Because the roads last turn viii be
the best.

So Very Easy.

Chicago Record-Herald: 1T seems
to me" said Speaker Clark in his
statement to the senate lobby commit
tee. that when Mr.. Ledyard found out
that Senator Stones name and mine
were being banded about by Lamar,
the psuedo Palmer and Lauterbach, he
ought to have let me know
A great many people must feel by
this time that the lobby Investigation
is developing a lot of queer things. If
the melodranatic informers and 60
betWeens had as much influence as
they pretend with the Napoleons Of
finance and trade we should back 4
rlbe against a Napoleon every day in
the week. And some OF the letters
and testimony published are certainly
evidence Of a childlike confidence IN
all too obvious stage villains. AT this
rate the genius for organization would
soon need a guardian.

Germs to take up his little creation.
Unfortunately the country is full of
rake promoters who have not over
looked the patent field. ~
Now these fake promoters prefer an
invention to a patent. For instance, if
an invention contains a really new and
valuable idea it is a simple matter for
the promoters to patent it while the
un~suspecting victim is held off with
many f1attering letters of advice.
Stealing ideas in this way Is not I'M
common. II n has an invention or
idea worth ~patenting, his rights in it
should be protected before another, a
total stranger, is allowed to test and
inspect 1t. There are plenty of repu-
table patent attorneys who will give
honest advice and secure patent for
the ordinary fee.
There are probably more inventors,
Or Would-be inventors, at work in this
country than there are doctors or law
yers-although they tell us there is
a superabundance Of both Of these
and they are turning out tens of
thousands of practical and impractical
IDEAS, only a small, percentage of
which will ever be patented and a still
smaller number that will ever prove a
commercial success. Every small town
and village has its inventors working
industriously to revolutionize the
automobile business, to beat. the. rub
Der trust by ~inventing a p%unctureless
tire, or to relegate the Wright. broth
ers to the limbo of the past by the
discovery of an entirely new art Of
flying. They belong to all walks of life,
just like the poet. INT playwright, and
many or their .phantasmagorial dreams
clutter up the patent office with mod
els and plans that add greatly to the
gayety Of the Woodworking patent
examiners.
There is an earnest demand for
some process Of making steel rust
proof, and the man who can solve this
work with a satisfactory. patented
process can make his fortune. A num-
Der OF capitalists are interested In the
problem. But they have been lombard
ed by so many foolish and half baked
ideas that they are naturally very
skept1cal. Every little chemist OF the
land seems to think he can solve a
problem that has engaged the atten-
ton of experts all over the world.
The inventor Of a good thing has an
easier n better opportunity to mar
ket mis- patent than ever before I'm the
history OF the world, but that does not
mean that capital Is: standing around
waiting to pick up his ideas and ex-
plot them. On the contrary, capital
is gettlng more and more conservative
80 lNto espsEt. mere are TOO many
inventors trying tofdelude and deceive
1T. But once let the inventor come
along with the right invention, and
plenty Of business men with capital
stand ready to take iii up and market
1T honestly and enthusiastically The
unknown inventor may have a harder
to get a. hearing than the one
with a reputation for doing good work,
but IL his device has merit and meets
a long-felt want, It cannot forever 20

MURDER
OVER POLITICS
BAD FEELING BETWEEN CANADA.
ANS RESULTS IN KILLING OF
REAL ESTATE MAN.

Winnipeg, Man, July 31.-Sir Dom
aid Mann, vice president of the Canal
Northern railway, brought into
Winnipeg last evening the body Of a
murdered man, that OF III. e. WHEEL
hams, a real estate broker and insur-
ance agent of Verigin, Sask., aged So,
who was shot and beaten over the
head with the barrel of a gun by
James Walters, a general merchant
n Justice of the peace. The pair had
been bad friends, 1t arising out of par
ty politics, for some time. Yesterday
morning when Whelhams returned to
town from a trip Walters wayIaid him,
shot him in the abdomen and when
Whelhams grappled with him, manag-
ed to get him down and struck him six
times with the barrel of a gun on the
head. Friends rescued Whelhams and
he was rushed to the depot to be sent
to Winnipeg for treatment. Sir Dom
aid Mann's private train came along
n at his invitation Whelham's body
was placed aboard and rushed to Win
nipeg at an average speed of fifty~nine
miles an hour, but he died Just befors
reaching the city. Walters was arrest
ed by the mounted police.

Arthur H. Gleason in Golfers: The
dreams Of the inventor. like the
dreams of the artist and author, are
not always limited by common sense
and cold, calculating business acumen.
Neither one is a safe judge Of his own
work. Perhaps, in a measure, his critics
are not much better prepared to give
an infallible decision. No man can lay
down a formula for Judging an inven
ton. a poem, a story, Of a great
drama. 1t is his uncertainty Of the
game that inspires the inventor to ex-
huberant faith and enthusiasm in his
creation, and often, through a process
of Infection, he influences the astute
business man, much against his better
judgment, to see the same roseate
dreams. OF course an inventor must
have faith in his work, otherwise he
could not invent.
Why Inventors Are Poor.
An inventor works hard to create
something ~patenable that will supply
a long-felt want, but when it is 1n-
ished-when the patent is granted,
the real fight begins. A patent is
worthless truck unless it can be mar
keted, and marketing generally means
