NOT SO HAKD AS IT SEEMS.
A patent strikes most people as an annalllnir-
ly formidable thing. The idea is that an in
ventor must be a natural genius, like Edison or
Bell; that he must devote years to delving in
complicated mechanical problems and that he
must spend a fortune on delicate experiments
before he can get a new device to a patentable
degree of perfection. This delusion the com
pany desires to dispel. It desires to get Into
the head of the public a ciear comprehension
of the fact that it Is not the great, comulex. and
expensive Inventions that bring the best returns
wimeir autnors, but the little, simple, and
cheap ones the things lhatseemso absurdly
trivial that the average citizen would feel
somewhat ashamed of bringing them to the
attention of the Patent Office.
Edison says that the profits he has received
trom the patents on all his marvelous inven
tions ave not been sufficient to pay the cost
of his experiments. But the man who con
ceived the idea of fastening a bit of rtlhher

Comparatively few people regard themselves
as inventors, but almost every body has been
struck, at one time or another, with ideas that
seem calculated to reduce some of the little
frictions of life. Usually such ideas are dis
missed without further thought.
" ny aon t the railroad company make Its car
windows so that they can be slid up and down
without breaking the passengers' back?" ex
claims the traveler. "If I were running the
road I would make thorn in such a way."
"What was the man who made the saucepan
thinking of?" grumbles the cook. "He never
had to work over a stove, or he would have
known how It ought to have been fixed."
"Hang such a collar button!" growls aman
who is lata for, breakfast. . "161 ware in the
business I'd make buttons that wouldn't slip
out, or break off, or gouge out the back of my
neck
And the various sufferers forgot about their
grievances and began to think of something
eise. 11 they would set dowu the next con
venient opportunity, put their Ideas about car
windows, saucepans and collar buttons into
Miacucai snape, and then apply for patents

COURTESY OF THE CELESTIALS.
The Gentle Manners of the Chinese Lower
""-pruing to Americans.
The Chinese are, as a race, the mn
courteous people I have
contact with, savs a wrltn, t .i..
Arena. When it is taken into rci,i.
eration that a majority of the Chinese
who come to this count Li
the lower or lowest class their gentle
manners are truly surprising. I have
seen parties of well-dressed mericans
go into one of their stores, poke about
among the poods, or wander into the
clubroom, watch the games, handle the
instruments of the orchestra and ask
all sorts of questions concerning them
lauuwi were treated as wel
come guests, their questions answered
and tea. confections and cigarettes
ottered them on departure. Fancy the
reception that would be accorded to a
party of unidentified Chinese who at
tempted to take a look thromrh
our own fashionable clubs. In the res
taurant their conduct is the same I
imagine that if three or four Chinese
were to take it into their heads to dine
at one of our up-town restaurants they
would be subjected to many unpleasant
remarks, probably some insolence from
the waiters, and. if i.lin,, -i u
i . . owuiii prove
as awkward in handling the knife and
fork as the average American is with
the chopsticks, would cause considera
ble merriment among the other guests.
But in Mott street the practice of
good breeding is different. Time and
again I have seen some good-natured
-"" lewusown dinner grow cold
that he might show some clumsy Ameri
can stranger who was struggling with
the chopsticks how to use those elusive
but useful implements. It is a very
simple trick after it is learned, and one
wh.ch I have often found useful at
other places than at a table in a Chi
nese restaurant. Once mastered, with
a couple of pencils one can improvise a
very serviceable pair of tongs to pick
up a bee or struggling worm, a bit of
people went into the kitchen, washed
a few dishes, cooked coffee and got to
gether some cold food. A few thought
It all a great joke. When the yacht
ing party returned the hotel-keeper
couldn't scold his employes, and didn't
dare offend his rich (ruest. He. there

A Declaration Opposing Foreign Inter
ference with Cisatlantic Affairs.
Briefly and broadly stated, the Mon
roe doctrine is our national policy oi
opposing the interference of European
powers with the political affairs of es
tablished popular governments in th
American hemisphere. Its origin, at
related, by the New York Times, waB as
follows: In 1823, at a congress of Eu
ropean powers at Verona, Italy, there
was discussed a project for aiding Spain
to recover her sway over her revolted
American colonies. This aroused
strong indignation in the United States
and the sentiment: "America for the
Americans," became a popular cry. In
the fallowing year 1823 President
Monroe, after careful consultation with
his secretary of state, John Quincy
Adams, and with Thomas Jefferson, in
corporated in his annual message the
following declarations: "That we
should consider any attempt on their
part to extend their system to any por
tion of this hemisphere as dangerous to
our peace and safety;" and "that we
could not view any interposition for the
purpose of oppressing (independent
American governments) or controlling
in any manner their destiny by any Eu
ropean power in any other light than
as a manifestation of an unfriendly dis
position toward the United States."
These declarations at once became
known as the Monroe doctrine. They
received popular approval at the time
and have always been advocated since
then. During the late civil war Louis
Hapoleon, in contempt of the doctrine,
sought to establish Archduke Maximil
ian as titular emperor of Mexico. Owing
to the occupation of the national forces
at home the effort then met with only
a diplomatic protest, but in ordinary
a ujcusure would rouse the
country to active opposition. In inter
national affairs of to-day the doctrine
has its appplication in the way of de
terring European intrigues or armed
interference with independent Amcri
can governments.

The speech with which the kin r.t
Portugal lately opened the cortes at

the situation in which Portugal is
now placed. The king declared that,
notwithstanding tho reduction of gov
ernment expenses and the savings ef
fected, the measures adopted had not
proved sufficient to place the economical
and financial life of the country on a
firrn basis. Portugal has been a con
stant borrower for well-nigh forty
years, and considerably more than half
the national revenue is now required to
pay the interest on the debt Matters
have at length reached a crisis, and last
summer a decree was issued temporarily
reducing the interest of the debt to one
third of the original amount. This was
a Rtep which partook of the nature of
i.-puumuon, and called forth strong
protests from several of the foreign
governments on behalf of those of their
subjects who had invested their money
in Portuguese state bonds. This, of
course, renders it useless for Portugal
to make any further attempt to borrow
money abroad. The consequence is
that the treasury is empty and trade
and commerce are brought almost to a
standstill by the lamentable condition
of the national credit. Nor is it possi-
