TUT T7 jjijraiWMinipiliui'fo,tw FOR INVENTIONS. Equal with the interest of those having claims against the government is that of INVENTORS, who often lose the benefit of valuable inventions because of the incompetency or inattention of the attorneys employed to obtain their patents. Too much care cannot be exercised in employing competent and reli able solicitors to procure patents, for the value of a patent depends greatly, if not entirely, upon the care and skill of the attorney. With the view of protecting inventors from worthless or careless attorneys, and of seeing that inventions are well protected by valid patents, we have re tained counsel expert in patent practice, and therefore are prepared to Obtain Patents in the United States and all Foreign Countries, Conduct In terferences, Make Special Examinations, Prosecute Rejected Cases, Register Trade-Marks and Copyrights, Render Opinions as to Scope and Validity of Patents, Prosecute and Defend Infringement Suits, Etc., Etc. If yon have an invention on hand send a sketch or photograph thereof, to gether with a brief description of the important features, and you will be at once advised as to the best course to pursue. Models are seldom necessary. If others are infringing on your rights, or if you are charged with infringement by others, submit the matter to us for a reliable OPINION before acting on the matter.

The author of " 'Twtxt lion Novis and Ulenuoo" Rlvos, boarlug upon this Hint, a story which ho hail from tlio keeper ou an untuto in that noiKUborkiood. One day In July the Uooper iu question, happening to bo out after vermin with his run, saw coining in his directum a bird which tie knew to be somo kind of buwlc, hut whoso manner of flight puzzled hi in ex tremely. It was beating up the wind to ward him aslf with a sorely wounded wing, manifestly impelled In some way that caused li to iitfzaij and struggle strangely in its llii'lit. Koeiug Urnt it it kopt Its eourso it was likely to pass wuhiu easy shot, the keeper quietly routed into a clump of ferns on one knee, with his gun ready for action. He had, however, to wait longer than he had expected, for the hawk meanwhile alighted ou the top of a largo gruy bowlder a hun dred yards away, and scorned very busy about something, though what it was I lie keeper at that distance could not muko out. In about live minutes, however, the hawk took wing again, this time with a much mora steady and even flight. Ho was soon overhead, and near enough to drop to the keeor'a gun. On soing up to his prize the kocor found that it was haloed a hawk, 'awl Iwatdt) IV wua lying a plump partridge, well grown, but to the keeper's surprise al most altogether strlpiicd of its fuuthurs. On going to the bowlder on which the kestrel had rested for awhile, all the miss ing feathers of the partrutgo were found scattered ubout, and the keeior lnatauUy toufc in the state of uiullors from first to last and explained It thus: The kestrel, having struck down the partridge, was earning the dainty morsel to his greedy fledglings In their nest. The wind, however, was st rong and gusty and ad verse to the kestrel's hue of thgut; and of the wind, the wings and tail, llaip and poiuiaut, of the partridge caught so much thut it was only with great diflleulty the plucky little captor could uiuko any satisfactory head way. Uetting tired of the struggle at last h must bavo reasoned with hnnsolf some what after this fashion: "My partridge burden Is more difficult U get along wi: li thun it real y need be. 1 ai heartily ashamed 01 mvsel I soling thus likr abooby. lw'ltusoin m yonder bowl jer and pluck invar the wing and tail .'outliers of my dainty bn of game, an opera tiou which, whiio it loaves my purtrldgf quite as big and good to out as netore, will enable me to bear it up and i.uri y it agouisi the wind with comparative ease."

The grand father of Mr. Owen, of the Chicago bar, who resided in the Old dominion, was, according to the Clilea fo Herald, the owner of a dog whose lagauity would scorn to entitle him to i plaeo in canino history. Ilnino had icon trained to do the family niarkot ng. Rich day ho carried to the, villago mleher's n basket containing his uias er's otdor and a penny with which to mrchusu meat for himself. To show oil llruno's talent his kind master often ,'ave him pennies at other times than ho marketing hour, which tho dog nuilo haste to deposit upon tho block ot lis friend, tho bukiher. Owing to tho 'roquoney of these gifts and tho liberal tcrvlng of the knight of tho cleaver Ilnino often had a surplus of provisions, wbluh, like all provident dogs, he buried n tho garden. Thoro wero many curs u tho neighborhood which, though ladi ng our hero's sagacity, wore possessed if equally sharp noses and good atom-u-hs. These wore not long in locating llruno's cacho and appropriating its con tenia, in consequence of which ho often went suppcrless to his kennel. One day tho old gentleman had been Miasling to a friend uf tho rare gifts pos tessed by his dog, and gave him a penny to furnish ocular proof of tho same. At the door of the meat market tho animal paused, bent his head us if engaged in a veritable brown study, and then, U tho utter discomfiture of his watching mas ler and the secret delight of his doubt Jig friend, trotted home with the penny n his mouth. The two spies hastened ifler the dog, and entering the garden liscovered him iu the act of burying tho Mill in the ground. All that afternoon he old gentleman and his friend .latched with the eagerness of children ,ho canine bank of deposit. Toward "veiling their patience was rewarded by ho appearance of the animal, who dug ip the penny and hastened to exchange t for meat whereon to make his supper. Mind had triumphed, and ever after vard Kruno banked his surplus coin and Kiugbt meat as his appetite demanded. Hunt Mode of RefrlgfirMmig.

Stoneware is made of potter's clay, which is of a bluish gray color, very heavy, free from grit, and found in many parts of the world. It is found in considerable quantities in Ohio, West ern Pennsylvania and Maryland. It is usually near the surface, lust below the common yellow clay. A stratum of it ten to fifteen feet thick is not uncom mon, and it is generally easily mined. Before it is ready for use it has to be ground in a mill. Some mills have a combination of large knives and crush ing wheels, and are run by steam power When the grinding is completed the clay is made into largo, squarn blocks, and placed in a cellar where they will keep moist. From here it is taken as needed ami made into smaller balls, proportioned to the size of the crock ot jar to be made. The "turner" takes one of these balls of clay and places it firm! von the center of bis "wheel,'' a miaul disk about -eighteen inches in diameter, running horizontally, and worked witb a foot l,ruauio. AS llio wneei ,uivcb inp.u.y he dexterously fashions tho ball of clay into the desired shape. liy passing a flun wire between the bottom of the jar and the surface of tho wheel, they are separated, and tho jar is gently lifted and set on a board. When the board is full of jars it is taken to the drying room, where a regular network of scaf folds holds up tho boards full of ware. In a few days the ware is dry enough to glaze inside, and to decorate or "blue," as tho workmen call it This deco rating is sometimes done by hand with a camel's hair brush, and also by the use of stencils cut out of sweat cloth. The ware is now ready for tho kiln, which is built of stone and lined inside with bricks. It is about twelve or fifteen feet high, round, with arched or conical top. At tho bottom aro the flues where the fire is placed. When the kiln is full of ware the door is walled up and a Are is started underneath which is gradually increased until the blazo comes out through the holes in the top of the kiln. This, heat is intense; the "burning" lasts about throe days. Then the fire is allowed to die, and in a few days the ware can bo removed. The outside glazing on stoneware U accomplished by throwing salt into the kiln just before tho burning is com pleted. The inside glazing is a solution of ''slip clay" applied with a force pump before the ware Is burned. Treasure Trove, Foot-Prints on the Path to Health.

AN EXTRAORDINARY RACE. The flan by Which a Pig Could Be Math to Outrun a Horse. "The queerest race I ever heard of,' said Major Wetherill in the Colonnadi to a Philadelphia Press reporter, "wai proposed ut Devon inn a few years age by one of the guests, an Italian noble man, Count Jlontglas. A crowd of us were talking about horses one day on the veranda, and Jlontglas offered to wager that he could successfully run any active pig in Chester County against any horse there, and beat the horse, over a twenty-five yards course. As was natural, we roared at the idea, but the Count persisted that he could do so, and then we supposed there was some catch in the wager and nobody took it. "After awhile Jlontglas and I were left alone on the veranda, and he told me that ho v- sincere in the bet, and explained how it was that a pig could outrun a horse over twenty-five yards. Of course it takes a horse a long time to get under way, and it was on this alone that the Count placed his faith. He would have the course de cided upon, and over it would scatter a line of corn, at the end placing a big, double handful. Then he would release the pig, and the latter would start along, eating the corn as he went, un til reaching the end, where he would find the double handful. Later on that day the process would be repeated and the pig would move hurriedly, eat along the scattered kernels, in an endeavor to reach the pile, twenty-five yards away. The next day considerably less corn would lie scattered over the course, but the double handful would still be placed at the end. Within a week only a very few grains would mark the line to the capital prize, and on being re leased the pig would start off at break neck speed in his greediness to get the latter. "Well," continued the JIajor, "on the day of the race there would be no corn at nil scattered on the course, but piggy would be squirming and wriggling to get off toward the pile. When all would be ready the word 'Go'.' would be given; the pig would be freed, and away he'd start as if shot from a cannon. Hy the time the horse could get fairly under way the pig would lie half over the course, just tearing himself almost apart to reach that handful of grain. Y'ou sec, Jlont glas didn't count on the pig's legs, "out an his appetite." Are yon insured ?
