TROUBLES OF THE INVENTOR.

In the distant time when man. kind was in it's cradle and the first monkey-man found that his weight far enough out upon the branch would dislodge it from the trunk. he discomfitted his playmates, who cha ed him. He returned next to try the wonderful experiment. His: chattering companionsdrew apart from him, and called him a nut, but the lever was invented. From 1t the cart wheel and all other wheels that sing the score of civi- liZation, came. The race of men in it's tortuous path upward has found no more useful anl universal de- vice, but from that distant day to now the way of the inventor has been hard. The story of Calico. compelled upon pain of death to abandon. his discovery that the earth is round is well known. Col umbus hoboed for, seventeen years and the wisest men of Salamanca, council of the most brilliant court on earth, grinned their conservat- ism at him, and sneered, Even so, how can a ship sail uphill?" Thomas Watt, inventor of the steam en zine, was thought Of as the lazy idiot brat of a widow. Wise men and scientists figured out to t-y ty that no locomotive could move it's own weight or a level track. The first steamboat wa: "Fulton's Folly. "It will never run, the conservatives said, and when it moved majestically away, Any way it will never stop. So late as the mid-nineteenth century the first telegraph messages eXitcd supersti- tituous iears. The telephone was first publicly exhibited at the Phi larelphia Centennial in 1876. No less astute fnancier than Jay Gould himself looked upon it and pro nounced it 9 nice toy in his judge ment it would never be adapted to commercial uses! There are men still living to whom Alexander Bell begged for money to prose cute his discoveries.
 It was ever thus; the inventor encountered athanrt his Path the sneering Imp of the Conservative. But the inventors are the true builders Elias Howe starving and deserted by his closets friends, re- mained in squaliid shop one more heart weating hour and mace the sewing machine and the empire O. textile manufactures.

OBITUARY..

James Waddy Nance fell asleep in
Jesus Saturday morning at $3.50
o'clock. He expressed to his loved ones
his willingness to die. He said: "When
| leave this earth I will be at rest
with my Savior, and where there is
neither death nor pain nor sorrow"
Friday night before he died he
prayed that God might take him out
of his sufferings. "I will walk the
golden streets in the new Jerusalem" i"
were among his last words.
ASLEEP in Jesus, blessed sleep,
From which none ever wakes to weep. ."

My Advice TO Friends
Written for The Evening Journal
By JAMES T. cRozIER.

Sometimes when I get out my pen
I'm lost for things TO say
For have subjects in scrap book
Four hundred nine today;
And everyone from Journal cut
Still writing just the same
And all the folks who read the stun
Know very well my name.
But let me give you this advice
That IL you want the news
While other papers both are good.
The Journal you should choose.
II you should want a house or farm
Or even want a horse,
Just watch the ads they print each day
You'll find such things. Of course.
1 like each man. also the girls
Connected W ia The place.
The latter know well what / bring
When there 7 show my face
They are nice folks, both men and girl.
That's truth / well can say.
And Mr.. p. did send 10 me
Some sweets on last birthday.
Another thing that's in my mind,
When Jimmy Jackson came
II cost me nothing. not a cent
To see each baseball game;
For through them Mr.. c. did say.
To me-and said It bold
You walk right in when you come
No ticket to you sold.
The Journal folks did that for me,
And Peter c. did choose
To say to me just what he did,
To some that may be news;
That paper printed this mans phiz
And many thousand tines.
So let it come into your home
They still do print my rhymes.
