natural daughter OF a woman OF family
who had in her youth elopod with an
artist. Her child she sends back TO an
old lover, by whom tho child is reared in
a convent and then brought home IS his
own daughter. She is on the point ~
marrying a young man OF suitable
family and position when he learns the
story of her birth. She has already
overheard its recital by two malicious
gossips.
Rejected by the youth who would have
his wife's birth beyond ~reproach, the Girl
accepts the offer of her guardians hand.
She will at least be established In the
world as his wife.
But before this union middle age and
youth have not been altogether happy.
Although the young sutton would not
have for . wife q woman whose birth
was irregular. he did not object 70 her
as the object OF his affection OF another
kind. But the wife did not yield TO the
temptation 10 elope with her young
lover. She resisted that and happily,
since she soon discovered that she really
loved her oldlsh husband and was capable
of being altogether contentcd with HIM
This is no a novel or a stirring nara.

been opposed in the past. There are
pleasant interludes in the progress q the
play. however. and little sidellghts on

its episodes.
The scenes are aid in the corner OF a
garden and in the house OF the hero a,

forty years ago there was young mar
ried man who was a chemist in a GER
tain works. His baby was very sickly
and delicate and his wife was quite
anxious about 1t. OF course, he called in
a doctor but he did not leave the sole
responsibility with him.
He began to do a lot of thinking and,
being a chemist he finally came to the
conclusion that the food the baby was
being fed upon was not being assimilated
by the child. He studied the .nutritive
values of foods and experimental until
he produced food on which the baby
thrived
The neighbors got to know of this and
they wanted the food for their babies.
So he continued making food for infants
and ultimately developed the business to
such an extent that today it has capital
of many millions. That is the story OF
famous baby's milk. 1t is a story that
emphasizes the fact that one of the real
secrets of fortune making is service to
others.

SUCCESS in inventing depends upon
making some contrivance such as one of
the twelve which will be indispensable to
the world at large. Until you have made
an indispensable invention there's no
money in it.
The Howe sewing machine, for in
stance, was made by a woman. Some
think it was invented by Elias Howe, but
it was not; 1t was invented by his wife.
She was sorry for women who had to
sew. She thought out a machine and
patented it and made her husbands and
her own fortune. 1t is a good example
of the invention which, when once put
before the world, Immediately became in
dispensable.
In this whole list of million dollar in
ventions there Is none in more immediate
demand, which would save more money
for the consumer and make more money
for the inventor than a substitute for
gasoline.

have revolutionized sutomobiling in Ger

German autOmobilists openly declare
that even after the war they will con-
tinUe TO use the new mixture The gov
eminent itself in the first place took up
the problem and only after severe tests
did ii recommend the successful mix
tUre. In the course Of these tests many
new facts were discovered concerning the
use of highly volatile and less volatile
fuels, as were also the causes Of former
failures with alcohol mixtures. benzoI
and kerosene and mixtures Of these with
gasoline.
The engineering department Of the
German transportation department has
published the results of a series Of expert
ments with various mixtures Of the
above named fuels Also il has given
the horsepower as compared with pure
gasoline, and the distances travelled
with them under the same road and driv-
ing conditions as accompanied the tests
with gasoline.
Although many OF the tests and the re-
suits are Of merely theoretical impor-
tance and perhaps would not have
created a great deal of interest had it
not been for the extraordinary demand
for motor fuel caused by the needs OF
the armies they are nevertheless inter
esting to Americans because they dem
onstrate unmistaksbly that gasoline is
not by any means the best and most ef-
fective fuel for motor cars.
When it is compared with the work OF
certain mixtures of alcohol and benzol
gasoline is not only wasteful but ex-
pensive. A pure gasoline of low volatil-
ity gives q horsepower greater than
that needed by the car. As a result il is
wasteful and a gallon of il will not
carry the car as far as a gallon OF the
alcohol-benzol mixture.

millionaire might turn his gaze in the
direction of Germany for help along these
lines. Driven by the necessities of war
to look around for gasoline substitutes
for the operation of its huge feet of
army motor transports, Germany has
reached an extraordinary degree of per-
fection in the use of alcohol-benzol mix
lures.
For several years it has been known
that pure benzol, denatured alcohol, or
pure kerosene would not work we'll in in
ternal combustion engines for automo-
biles. The definite needs in connection
with the employment of these fuels were
not known because nobody seemed i'm
pressed with the need for immediate &C
ton.

o YOU want to make a million
dollars and live like a prince
for the rest of your life?
Invent any one universal
necessity out of this list and the money
and luxury is yours. The guarantee of
at least a million dollars as profit from
any one of these inventions is made by
the Sphinx Club, an organization COM
posed of New York advertising men.
Everyone of these discoveries not yet
made is needed by millions of people
and will be received with both thanks
and gold.
There is general impression that to
make money you have to do something
wonderful. But the records Of fortunes
made out Of inventions show that there
is much more money made in doing
something simple, better than ever it was
done before, than in doing something
strange and elaborate.
There is no use rambling all over the
world trying to find something very
wonderful to invent and thereby to miss
the good things within reach at home
That is all very well, young man
might say, but what is one to do without
capital? AS a matter of fact the situa-
tion is entirely the reverse. 1t is capital
that is looking for young fellows all the
time and for simple inventions which can
be sold to millions of people Capital is
shorter of young fellows with good ideas
than young fellows are of capital
Most of the young inventors who have
done anything in this world have started
without capital or short of capital. Henry
Ford had no capital at all to start out
with. He did not invent anything par
ticularly new or elaborate, but made
something simple which thousands
needed.
1t is not a question of money at all.
The question is: are you willing to sacri-
fee your ease, your comfort, your enjoy
ment until you succeed in your inven-
tiCn? That is the price and the only
price you will have to pay if you decide
to try to invent any one of these twelve
things that are so universally needed
Ford is not the only man who has
built up his business without capital.
Here is another striking case. About
