We secure patents and to induce people to get track of their bright ideas we offer a prize of $100 to be paid on the first o f every month to the person who submits to us the most meritorious invention during the pre ceding month. We will also advertise the invention free of charge in the National Recorder, a weekly newpaper, published in Washington, D. 0 .. which has an extensive circulation throughout the United States and is devoted to the interest o f inventors. NOT 8 0 HARD AS IT SEEMS. The idea o f being abie to invent some thing strikes moat people as being very difficult; this delusion the company wishes to dispel. It is the simple things and small inventions that make the greatest amount of money, and the complex ones are seldom profitable. Almost everybody, at some time or another, conceives an idea, which if patented, would probably be worth to him a fortune. Unfortunately such ideas are usually dismissed without thought. The simple inventions like the car window wnich could be easily slid up and down with out breaking the passenger s back, the sauce n, the collar button, the nut lock, the ttle stopper, the snow shovel, are things that almost everyone sees some way o f im proving upon, and it is these kind of inven tions that bring the greatest returns to the author. The prize we offer will be paid at the end o f each month, whether the application haa been acted upon by the patent office or not. Every competitor must apply for a patent on his in vention through us, and whether he secures the prize or not, the inventor will have a valuable patent. THE PRESS CLAIMS COMPANY. Jovrt WiDDiBniiw.
