A wife sliuttlil lie able to, ntul most
of theui can. toll thy condition of Iter
husband's mind on seeing him a block
away. As Mr. Bowser dropped oi't' (ho
car t ho other evening Mrs. Bowser was
sitting on the front steps walling for
him.
She noted that he walked with n
swagger.
She took notice that he swung his
anus in au Important way.
She saw that his condition of mind
was enthusiastic.
As he drew nearer a bland smile
covered his face, and he started to
swing ids hat as he entered the gate.
"Dili you find a quarter on the street
car?" she asked as he came up the
steps.
"Come along to dinner aud I'll tell

an hour ago driving u hog, but he
didn't stop to ask t or you."
"Woll, the right party will be along |
within an hour. Mn. Bowser, I've
struck It."
"For the five liuudredtU time. Is It
a t>ateut powder to shoot all the mos
quitoes o(T the face of the earth?"
"Don't be sarins, iv, now," he replied
as they sat down to dinner. "I may
have made a few failures, but what
man hasn't? I've got something this
time that Is a sure thing. There Isn't
one e'mucc iu a billion for failure.
Tlf-re's fame and money In It-dead
loads of the Ions: preen. In a month
from now we'll have our manor house
and steam yacht, and the Bowser Na
tional bank will be doing business
with the front and back doors wide
open."
"Is It a chicken farm?"
"Guess again."
"Going to raise squabs for market ?"
"No squabs. You couldn't guess in a
year. Mrs. Dowser, how long is it sine"
the first man tried to navigate the
nir?"
"A thousand years, for all I know.
[ hope you haven't got that flee biling
you."
"One hundred years ago, tuy dear
v."":!iati, a man named Pete McCarthy
set out to fly across the Irish channel.
Me had worked for two years on a
dv!ug machine, lie didn't fly. lie
built his machine after the figure of a
Mrd. but unfortunately trot the tail in
f.uiit, and it clime down in the water
nnd drowned h'm. Since that time
hundreds of men have spent years and
years nnd any amount of money try
ins to Invent a?successful ll.vlng ma
chine."
Had Read of It.
"Yes. I have read of it In the papers. (
If those men had spent their time saw
lug wood instead humanity might have
had some benefit from it. Fools and
flying machines have never been far
npart. And so that's the bee In your
bouuet, eh?"
"Mrs. Bowser, listen to me. It is u
? sure thing that the air Is ;o *>e navl
? gated. We navlgr!* earth and the
' water and why !? . tl: ? ?::?? People arc
tired of "tv.' ? oats ai d rriilrt id trains.
They w:'" a cha . ?> of sec: .cry. They
waut to K'cp the finders out of their
eyes. T uc.v want to go faster. They
wan'. so ; 't there sooner Yes. I may
tell yon iiin; I have become Interested
In a i'."'.ug in ichlne."
"Is thee anything too foolish for
you to invest In?" she asked in add
tone^ '
Mi- P.owser flushed, but held on to
hitU8c'. and after a minute he said:
"Mrs. Bo v. >er, you don't understand,
l'bere is :? worldwide dems.nd that the
air toe navigated. Every government is
interested in the subject. Every board
of trade Is interested. It must come.
In war we must drop shells on the
heads of the enemy, nnd In commer
cialism we must And more rapid tran
sit. A week hence you may be reading

there in it for us? Why, womuu, I
wouldn't take a tmsbc) of pearls for
my show!"
"Some one with a flying machine Is
Irving to rope you in, is he?" she
asked as liny went up to the sitting
room.
"Rope? Hope? Rope Bowser In?"
:ie s'louted. "Uudersiaud, woman, that
1 have never been roped, and never
r-liali be. You iu: uit my fluanclal In
telligence by using any such expres
sion. A gentleman who has Invented a
' IMit wanls capital to bring. It to the
j nt'ention of the world. I.carnlng of
I th - interest I take iu all great enter
prises. he ennie to me for encourage
i nieut. As soon as he shows up here
th!.-; evening we are going to take a
look at hi* invention. If he can con
vince t.jo thr.t Ibe problem has boon
solved I shall Invest? that Is, If lie will
conseut to rename It the Bowser lller.
Ilove you got any more sarcastic re
marks to get off?"
"So. 1 am not us Ignorant on this
matter as you think, I have road ail
that the papers have had to say for the
last year. 1 know that two or three
machines have su-ceclid In making
short flights on perfectly calm days
and that others have fiddlefuddlcd for
a hundred yards and then came down
with a bump. Man never lias and nev
er will Invent a Hying machine that o
gu>ty day won't put out of business.
Anything like a gale that will blow
dor ii brick factories uras't iniike short
work of any machine light enough to
fly through the air."
"And you are done, are you, mad
am?" asked Mr. Bowser as there came
:i ring at the bell, and he rose up.
Skeptical of Success.
"All except lo say that you have my
consent to Invest and take all the dy
ing trips you dedve. Should you and
this Inventor decide to start for Brazil
tonig'.it please telephone me so that I
may lock the front door before going
to bed."
II was tlic man. Tlic end of his nose
was rod with enthusiasm, and the
light of victory shone in his eyes. The
pair started off at once, hut 011 reach
ing the corner the Inventor hinted that
iteer would he In order. Mr. Bowser
took him into a sal >011 and bought lieer.
One block down he bought more. Be
fore they had readied the shed where
the ma. Iiine was stored he had bought
live glasses, but had only drank one
liimser. The inventor explained that
he always took a llier on beer before
taking one 0:1 his machine. The sheil
was duly reached, the dour unlocked,
and then Mr. Bowser >inoi in the pres
ence of IT. He i:isll.i:ilvely removed
his hat and lowed his head.
"There it is." said the man In au
awed whisper. "But shan't we go
across the street first and get nnothei
glass of beer?"
They went. Mr. Bowser was too agi
tated lo drink the glass before him.
and the Inventor downed it. Then they
returned to ihe shed and saw a com
mon excelsior mattress spread out on
two aawliorses and two homemade
wings attached to its sides. For a tail
It had a Japanese umbrella.
"There it is." repeated the Inventor
as he pointed. "That Is what Is going
to revolutionize the world, but before
going further suppose we take a
drink."
They took one? that Is, the stranger
took two.
"What lufcrual nonsense Is this?"
demanded Mr. Bowser after walking
around the sawhorses. "You don't
mean to tell me that this thing will
ever lly ?"
"She'll sail like a bird. sir. After we
have had another drink or two"?
"But we won't have another drink
or two!"
j "Say. Bowser, have you got ?5 to
spare: I want lo paint its wings red."
"No, sii; 110. You have brought
me down here a::d ina lo a fool of nie."
"But don't rip out that way. Walt
