Show Even mental appetites appe-tites will run away with our caution if given a chance. My oyo Is always ready to see an object with a story In It If It Is In tho intorest of forethought. When a man showed mo his Invention Inven-tion nnd told mo about his hopes nnd how It cost him a hundred dollars to ndj to his invention the dlscovory that he could not get It patented then my uppotlto for objects ran nwny with my caution and I nsked htm to give me tho hundred dollar model for my accuracy exhibit. To my surpr.so ho gnvo It to mo. I Rsl-cd In conlldenco yet wns surprised in getting It. Why should that bu possible? pos-sible? II was a box with a hamllo on top and ns I lifted It n lesson was taught mo lift things beforo you ask for thorn. It was too heavy for my use. My zeal went down right there enough to postpone currying It nway that day and each time I thought of tho box I either wondered how to uso It or how to gracefully get out of taking It. Tho other day I Incidentally remarked to tho Inventor that my uso for tho box might bo limited to writing about It. Just so long as I havo a chnuco to leave the box and hold on to his offer It Is wlso to do so as any day I niny discover Jnw to make good use of his discovery. Never glvo up on account of fear or discouragement or regret or Ignorance If I know moro I might sustain my zenl that acquired a perplexity. |
