For { . J GUTENBERG, son-of an-exiled-noblofnan of Mainz, had an idea, Gutenberg was what would nowadays be known as a “get-rich-quick” crank, He had floated several schemes, borrowed money to perfect them, _ and had in every case falled to accomplish more than the impoverish= tng of himself and his backers, One time it had been a stone-pollsuing In- vention, and again a mirror factory, which waa to make him wealthy. But only failure had followed his every venture, Decidedly he was not tha fort of man {n whoin the thrifty Germans cared to put any falth. . Gutenberg's newest {dea had come to him on secing & full set af planing cards which had been constructed.by means of stamps, or dies, instead of by hand, To the world at large this Jabor-saying process seemed wonder- jtul. But it meant nothibg more than that,to any one except Gutenberg. ¥ set him, however, to thinking j : Ifa collection ‘of blocks with yarlous designs carved on them conld bw | used to mark fifty-two cards, why could not a similar wet'pf blocks be mada, | each bearing, one of the letters’of the alphabet, and used for printing words, | Sentences, even whole pages? : For centuries a process had deen In use whoreby such words, phracew jana pictures were: curved: upon. large blocks of wood, smeared with ink, | covered with paper and subjected to x squeeze from a sort bf clder-prees, 1. : sg The result was a more or less smudgy reproduc tion of the. carved letters or figures.
