One of the luckiest inventions in history was barbed wire. Isaac Ellwood, oi Illinois, the inventor, made the first barbed wire to keep out his neighbour's pigs. It succeeded, and he protected his idea. In a few years he made over £3.000.000. There are many similar fortunes to be made out of inventions prpperly protected. Ask Messrs Baldwin and' Ray ward, patent agents, for information. Local agents: Messrs Ravenh'ill nnd Co., tbo Square Palmerston North.—Advt.
