TWO KINDS OF INVENTORS.

An event of national interest oc-

The world is full of inventors. But
comparatively few of them are able TO
translate their scientific ideas into
thoroughly practical form. They are
tvpicallv a tribe Of creatures some
thing like artists and poets. one
thinks Of them as wearing long hair
living in squalid tenements, dreaming
over half made machines, meanwhile
their families living on their relations.
The inventor is not apt TO be a prac-
teal business man. He may get MS
ideas into a practicable and workable
form. but ne is as the babe in the
woods when he gets down in the mar
ket around the business men. With
child like innocence he trusts the
plausible promoter. With faith That
humanity is as kindly as he has found
the laws Of nature. he subscribes to
involved contracts. In later years he
wakes up TO find that the traders and

II is rare that diverse gifts are con-
centrated in one man. When nature
gifts a person with genius for creating
new appliances. she is apt to leave
him bereft OF common sense in every
DAY relations The world IS full of
instances Of inventors who conferred
inestimabie benefits on mankind, yet
who died amid scenes Of poverty.
Mr. Edison is not OF that kind. He
has had the supreme gift of taking the
scientific dreams of the age, and so
realizing them that they MT into the

But do you know of anything bet

more deadly than the gas bombs?"
yes. l could, but l can't get my
