prive US of any n of them, even for
the briefest of periods, would amount
to almost a calamity.
I do not hesitate to add the name
of Lewis Edison Waterman and his
invention, Waterman's Ideal Fountain
Pen, to this list of world benefactors.
The history of Waterman's Ideal
Fountain Pen has a peculiar personal
interest for the people of Illinois be-
cause she can rightly claim Lewis
Edison Waterman as one of her sons.
As a child, he came with his mother
and younger brother and settled in
Kankakee, and it was in the little old
wagon shop, conducted by his brother,
Elisha S. Waterman, that the first
model of Waterman's Ideal Fountain
Pen was turned out in wood.
Back in those old days, the gold pen
and understanding industries were
located wholly in the East, requiring
that the business of fo%untain-pen max
ing be carried to the source of supply,
and so in the smallest possible way
the L. E. Waterman Company's bust
. ness was established in New York.
MI. L. E. Waterman made his prin-
cipal headquarters in New York up
to the time of his death, while his
brother, Elisha S. Waterman, as
sumed the interest of the Company in
the West for the short time he lived.
The Chicago Office was opened at, the
same time the business was started
in New York, and for many years
vas conducted in the most modest cir
cymstances.
It has been said by some writer,
"the name Waterman started as a

New Test for Dyes.

The fading effect of light has been
standardized and is made use of in q
new invention for the testing of col
oring made use of in textiles, wall
paper and similar materials. A power
full lamp is made use of with specially
designed electrodes consuming about
$500 watts. Provision is made for
testing about 40 samples at one time
ard as the samples are being exposed
a portion of each is shielded for the
purpose of comparison after the test.

robber was shot in the face so badly
that police said it probably would be
impossible to identify him.
The dead bandit was identified later
as Frederick G. Smith, an electrician.
According to Mrs. Minnie Smith, the
widow, her husband suffered conges-
ton of the brain in a railroad accident
seven years ago., She believes he was
mentally unbalanced and called him a
''model husband"

A Terrifer.

An artist was sketching from the
river bank near two friends who were
fishing. The artist was at one time
surrounded by COWS which interfered
with his view, and he tried to drive
them away by throwing things at
them, but they would not bulge. At
length one of the anglers cried: "Show
them your sketch, old mani" He did
so, and the offenders fled.
