BLIND TO GREAT INVENTION
French Emperor Missed Opportunity
When He Turned Down" Ericsson's
Offer to Build Monitors.

March s, 1862; August, 1921. These
dates comprise the history of ironclad
monitors, the first of which. invented
by John Ericsson. met and defeated
the Merrimac at Hampton Roads on
the date first named. The last Of the
British monitors, after seeing minor
service in the World war, was con-
signed to the scrap heap by the ad-
.niralty last August
The history of the monitors goes
back TO the days of Napoleon III, when
Great Britain was in ferment, appre-
hending invasion from across the
channel. Ericsson, Swedish engt'
neer, urged the French emperor in
1854 to build. according to his design.
armored vessels OF low freebOard, with
big guns in revolving shot-proof
cupolas, placed centrally on the decks.
Such type Of armor-clad Ship he de-
clared, would revolutionize naval war
fare The idea was not carried out,
and Great Britains wooden ships
never had TO face the ordeal Of the
Merrimac.
But Ericsson prevailed on the Union
leaders of the American Civil war
t. give his idea trial. In 100 days
ais ship was built, armed and
equipped and II soon fulfilled the in
ventor's hope that it would serve as
a monitor" or lesson, to the C0nfed-
eracy
Even before this. however, the Brit
ish admiralty had taken up the idea
and had built vessel of a similar
type. At the time Of the armlstlce
the British navy had 81 of them.

Pumpkin pie Is a deIectable. Some

If they would eat couple Of quarters
of pumpkin pie once day for week,
they would know where gray matter
really has its origin.
The frost sometimes may be on the

but 1t is never on the pumpkin pie. The
only place where II meets with freeze

DEMAND FOR FURTHER LIGHT

ems Shoes for So a Pair.

Bridgeport COMM paper tells its
readers that large manufacturing
establishment In It's city is aiding its
employees by selling shoes and coal
10 the operatives at a reduced rate.
Listen to this. for example:
WOmen's shoes. durable, stylish and
cheap withal, are being distributed to
workers who want them for 81 a pair.
The significance Of the 50 price Is
seen in a compa risen with ordinary
shoe price schedules. The shoes are
sold on two days each week and sew
eral hundred pairs still remain.
AS to the coal. * is sufficient to say
that the corporation Is furnishing
three carloads a week to It's employees
at $3.50 ton, which does not strike
us as such marvel as the sale Of
shoes at 50 pair, but as to this we
should welcome further information,
says the Hartford Courant. II 1t Is
possible to buy shoes at once durable
and stylish at 81. the fact has gained
precious little publicity in the last
four years, even 'mong women and
we should suppose that the women Of
Bridgeport would he apt to mention
the fact to the dealers In the city.
Surely there must be men employed
Ay this corporation who would be glad
10 find IT dealing in footwear for them,
