PATENTS!
NOTICE TO INVENTORS.
There w.tu never a time in the history
of oar country when the demnnd fr
inventions and improvements in the arts
and aoienoes generally was so great as
now. The oonvenienees of innukind in
the faotory and workshop, the household
and on the farm, as well as in official
life, require continual accessions to the
appnrtenance and impliments of each
in order to save labor, time and 'expense.
The political change in the administra
tion of government does not affect the
progress of the American inventor, who
being on the alert, and ready to per
ceive the existing deficiencies, does not
permit the affairs of government to de
ter him from quickly oouoeiving the
remedy to overoome existing discrepan
cies. Too great esre cannot be exer
o'&ed in ohoosing a competent and skill
ful attorney to prepare and proseoute
an application for patent. Valuable in
terests have been lost and destroyed in
innumerable instances by the employ
ment of incompetent counsel, and es
pecially is thiB advioe applicable to
those who adopt the "No patent, no
pay" Byntem. Inventors who entrust
their business to this class of attorneys
do bo at imminent risk, as the breadth
and strength of the patent is never con
sidered in view of a qniok endeavor to
get an allowance and obtain the fee.

DASHING A DUDE.
Masher Who Could Not Stand a Girl
with Sketch Hook.
Three decidedly attractive girls got
on a Sixtn avenue elevated train and
nuuediiitely a score of masculine eyes
were leveled at them, savs the New
York Advertiser. The girls found seats
ogether and tried to appear uncon
cerned and quite oblivious to the pro
nounced advances for a llirtatiou from
wo young swells who sat opposite.
But all their elTitrtstoapnearatea.se
were unavailing. The young men per
sisted and the girls blushed and looked
uncomfortable.
Finally one of the girls opened a
small sketch book on her lap, and then
uismg her eyes she gazed straight at
ler admirer opposite, lie petted his
mustache and smiled. She made a few
strokes with her pencil in the sketch
ilt, but did not smile. When she
raised her eyes again he realized that
she was sketching him. The other two
girls watched the progress of the
sketch and giggled. This, with the
smiles of the other passengers, was
more than the subject of the sketch
ould endure. He crossed and re
rossed his legs, pulled his hat down
until it touched his nose, and at last
rushed desperately into the next car.
When he had gone the girls closed the
unsoiled pages of the s'ieteli book and
laughingly threw away the bit of pen
cil, w hich, when picked up by another,
proved to he quite devoid of lead.

A IerrlptloD of the Method. Kmplojr6
In Himrhig the Chalnneh in the
Suburb, of Loudon Before
the Ifreifck of Il.y.
A lenc)i was handy, and on these
tlic niiiti i'ials for snaring were laid out
uinl ni:tcK- ready, says a London corre
,ioinli nt of the St. Louis Globe-l)emo-i-rut.
They were few and simple.
i:;i.'h man had a stuffed male chaffinch
: full plumage mounted on a short
1-ntli of stick, in one end of which
v.-:i s a sharp spike. Hesides this the
,mly tools of the craft were half a
lo.i'ii pieces of whalebone of about
i !io thickness of an umbrella rib and
nine inches long", and these, like the
stuffed bird's mounting, were provided
ul, one end with a spike. A little
slime jar containing bird lime com
pleted the outfit.
These preliminaries completed, we
made a start for the forest, which was
close at hand, Hob the Butcher (who
l.ad won the toss for first try) keeping
well in advance of the rest of the
party. It could not, however, be said
uiiat chaffinches were plentiful, though
all round about us there was an abun
dance of bird music of almost every
other kind. It was not the fault of the
valiant peggers. Their cages all the
time enveloped in the handkerchiefs,
they seemed to know exactly what
was required of them, and fired off
their challenge loud and ringing, at
the rate of at least three within the
minute. Hut presently Bob the Uutcher,
,vho was some twenty yards ahead,
held up his hand in token that he had
it last "fouud something." On that the
;ailor boy was placed for the time be
ing under a furze bush, and we all hur
ried up to see the fun.
A cruel sport is chaffinch pegging.
Not that any actual pain is inflicted on
the poor birds in the act of capture,
though no doubt they are most terri
bly frightened. The villainy of the
nusiness lies in the unfortunate finch
being made the victim of his jealous,
egard for the welfare of his nest mate
the wife of his bosom. Ho nice are
his ideas of domestic felicity that
though his house is no larger than the
hollow of one's hand, he insists on
having a tree all to himself for accom
modation. No other pair of chaffinches
may build there, nor must any male of
the tribe come leafing round. Sure as
he does a fight ensues and the inter
loper is driven away. It is on the
chaffinch's known objection to visitors
of his own species that the rascally
bird catcher founds his hopes of suc
cess, as was speedily made manifest by
Hob the Butcher's maneuvering at the
trunk of the poplar tree, among the
boughs of which a wild finch was all
the time angrily responding to the
hidden caged bird's challenge.
Producing his slips of whalebone
the butcher smeared them plentifully
with the bird lime, and by means of
the spiked ends stuck them here and
there in the tree trunk, and immedi
ately beneath he fixed the stuffed bird.
It was not till then that he placed the
decoy finchits cage still tied p in
the handkerchief at the foot of the
tree, and covered it over with a hand
ful or two of grass. This was the
"pitch," and on the instant a watch
was produced and the exact time
noted, and we all withdrew to the
screening of a hedge close nt hand,
peeping through the openings of which
we could see what was taking place in
the poplar tree. The hidden bird con
tinuing his "challenge." the wild bird
always answering, and each succeed
ing time more fiercely was presently
seen eagerly fluttering this way in
search of the intruder. At last, green
eyed and on that account purblind
probably it caught sight of the harm
less dummy down below, and, with a
shriek of rage, was down on it. swift
seemingly as a stone from a .' ling.
Hut the treacherous limed twi;r: inter
cepted the savage pounce, an, I the
next moment, with its out: tretehed
wings held by the detached no, sired
sticks, it fell helpless to the ground.
FIFTY-ONE DAYS UNDER SNOW
The ICKK,rIoni'0 of Ktisiiin i',rl, .Who Is
a . Alive to Tell Her Story.
An account hits been received at St.
Petersburg of n remarkable experience
Hint befell a yinintf (f irl named Alex
andria Sehitkine, seventeen years of
are, who was recently discovered ly
injr in a state of complete, exhaustion
near the village of llofTorodska, in the
province of Moscow. Who relates that
she fell asleep one evening ou a heap
of straw, and on walUin;,' some hours
afterward found herself lyinff under a
mass of snow tiuit- nan taiien miring
the night and enveloped her to tho
pth of some three feet. All tho
girl's attempts to extricate herself
proved unavailing, and she remained
buruid among snowamt straw tor hfty
one davs, her only nourishment during
that time being a few morsels of bread
that she happened to have with her.
When at length rescued, the girl was,
of course, found to be in a state of
most complete inanition, aud it re
quired several days of constant care
and nursing to restore her strength.
On recovering she stated that she had
not experienced any excessive cold,
and had only occasionally been seized
with shivering. She sul'.'ered much,
however, from hunger, and, after her
few crusts of bread were eaten, sup
ported life by sucking the snow. The
girl also described the. anguish which
she felt on finding that no one heard
her piteous, half-stilled cries for help
wheuever the sound of footsteps in the
neighborhood of her living sopulcher
fell upon her ears.

ly torn down after having been a ruin
formally years, says a correspondent
of the i'liiladelphia Times, lieiieath
it was discovered what had been an
old curbed well, and on clearing this
out there was brought up a small steel
casket containing several articles of
old-fashioned jewelry. These num
bered among them a watch of the
style worn during the last part of the
last century and a comb such as was
affected by ladies of continental times.
These were set with large pearls,
which must have been valuable, hut
which are ruined by the action of the
water. A tiara of small diamonds bore
the device of "D" in small Herman
characters, but beyond this there is no
clew as to the owner of the jewels.
The family to whom the house be
longed has long been extinct and the
place for some years until recently has
been inhabited by negroes. Some of
the older citizens remember that this
mansion replaced another far hand
somer, which was destroyed by tire
and which was one of the oldest places
in the state. At the time of the war
the house was rented to a poor family
named Lucey, who would hardly have
possessed such jewels, so their pres
ence in the well can scarcely be ac
counted for on the theory that they
were hidden there then for safety.
The present value of the articles is not
more than one hundred dollars, but
when new they must have been worth
something over one thousand dollars,
according to the valuation of a local
jeweler. They are now in the posses
sion of the gentleman who owns the
land on which the old place stood.
The watch is curious for its antique
workmanship, though most of the
works have been eaten away by rust.
ORIGIN OF DEATH VALLEY.
Ad Indian Legend Kegiirdlna; IJueen in
Beautiful n. Cleopatra.
The Indian legend regarding the
origin of Death valley, in Mayo county,
California, is an interesting one.
From the outer edge of this vast
furnace it is three hundred miles
square and one hundred feet below sea
level one may see far off, tremulous
through the shimmering waves of
heat, a sort of buttc that has the form
of a ruined castle. The story goes
that in the old days, before the Amar
gosa river ceased to water the valleys,
the place was the site of a powerful
city ruled by a princess as beautiful as
Cleopatra and as imperious as F.liza
beth. An ambassador to the reigning
Aztec monarch described to her on his
return the glories of the king's palace
in the City of Mexico.
Resolving to equal the magnificence
of her neighbor she began the erection
of a vast building. All the laborers
and artisans of the city were employed
anil the work was pushed night and
day, for within twelve months the
Aztec ruler was to be her guest, and
she wished to welcome him to a pal
ace as snlendid as his own. She ex
hausted the resources of her realm,
men went mad with toil and hunger,
and at last the high priest protested.
He was ordered to execution, and, (ly
ing, cursed the city for the princess'
sake. That night the earth shook and
sank, the river dried up and the
morning sun poured down a flood of
heat. All perished, and now the ruined
walls of the palace alone remain.
The Amargosa, by the way, is a
most erratic stream. It flows south
ninety miles from its fountain head in
the western Sierras, vanishes at Best
ing Spring mountain, is in evidence
again for fifty miles, disappears for a
space, then bobs up and runs along tur
bulently for one hundred miles. All
trace of it is lost at Death valley.
FISH ALIVE IN BOILING WATER.
A Hrvadn Spocles Wlilrh Died on llelng
Put luto a Cold Fluid.
One of the most remarkable discov
eries in the shape of a peculiar species
of fish ever made on this continent was
that made at Carson City, Nev., in 1S70.
At that time both the Hale & Norcross
and the Savage mines were down to
what is known as the "3, 200-foot
level." When at that depth a subter
ranean lake of boiling water was
tapped. The accident flooded both
mines to the depth of 400 feet. After
the water had all been pumped out ex
cept that which had gathered in basins
and in the inaccessible portions of the
works, and when the water still had a
temperature of 128 degrees nearly
scalding hot many queer-looking lit
tle blood-red fish were taken out. In
appearance they resembled goldfish.
They seemed lively and sportive
enough when they were in their native
element boiling water notwith
standing the fact that they did not
even have rudimentary eyes. When
the fish were taken out of the hot
water and put into buckets of cold
water for the purpose of being trans
ported to the surface, they died as
I was further told that ne'.v herring
cost a few weeks ago as much as one
dollar each. I protested that in Lon
don new herring were often sold at one
cent each or three herring for two
cents. In answer to this I was smiling
ly informed that in Kolland herring
were not during the season, any dearer;
only, though just as fresh, they were
not called a new herring. The point
is to eat a new herring, and a new her
ring means a herring out of season, or
the first herring that heralds the com
ing season. It is these rare and early
herring that are sold at one dollar
each. Then the price falls to half a
dollar, then to twenty cents, to ten
cents, to five cents, and finally to one
cent or less.
When the new herring are first an
nounced Dutchmen inquire of one an
other: "Have you already eaten a new
herring?" If you are able to answer
"Yes" early in the season then you are
considered a man of means and impor
tance, ltut if you continue for long
confessing that you have not eaten any
new herring then your kind and char
itable friends conclude you must be
involved in serious financial difficul
ties. I

f HB 1-SrjS PF TALG;
A MttFll ' Which put Mule
Known
Few realize how useful talc has be
come, now that it is mined at many
points from New York to Alabama.
Being thoroughly incombustible, it is
of great value in the manufacture of
fireproof wall-paper, paper window
curtains, etc. Kven in its crude state
it has a very oily "feel," and is found
to yield one of the best lubricants
known. Mixed with common grados
of soap, it makes them as pleasant to
the touch as the choicest brands, ren
dering the skin smooth and soft, al
though entirely without any cleaning
qualities. It is also largely used in the
manufacture of patent wall plaster, in
which its addition gives a smooth,
glossy finish to walls and ceilings that
no other substance lends. Talc powder,
duly relined, is exquisitely soft and fine
grained. Hence it makes an excellent
Infant powder, softening the tendcrest
skin and preventing chafing, irritation,
or even "prickly heat," as will no other
substance. So, too, it makes an unsur
passed molding sand for casting metals
in, both its fireproof and fire-grained
qualities being very valuable in tine
work. Mixed witli rubber, it renders
it more elastic and less liable to crack.
From It is also made the "French
chalk" used by tailors, and shoe-dealers
use it in the powdered form to coax
a No. 9 foot into a No. (i shoe. The
richest tale mines are now being
worked in Cherokee county, N. C,
where it is found in leaves and scales,
very much like slate; it is easily mined
with ordinary tools, and can be sawed
or even broken by hand. It has brought
as high as six hundred dollars per ear
load at the market.
SERVANTS IN INDIA.
They Are Vastly Dlfforent from Those In
This Country.
Domestic life in India is without the
annoyance of the servant question,
says an exchange. You never need tell
a servant what you want done in that
country They seem to know it by in
tuition. The ordinary household has
about twelve servants a cook, a wait
er, a sort of valet de chambre and, if
you have two horses, two grooms; one
man to run before you when you go
out riding and take charge of your
horse, another man whose business it
is to collect for your horse's feed the
grass which grows in a vine-like man
ner upon the roads. Then in summer
you require three or four men who
work the large fans or "punkas" over
you night and day while you are walk
ing and while you are sleeping; then
last, but not least, a watchman.
This last institution is a peculiar one
If you did not have him you would be
liable to find something stolen every
night. Strangest of all, the onlv man
who Is a successful watchman must be
a thief the caste of a thief. He makes
no pretentions of being anything else,
but as long as you have him in your
employ nothing will ever be stolen.
While the native Hindoos are very dis
honest, the only way in which to keep
your valuables safe is to give them into
their hands for keeping. If one locks
five hundred dollars in his chest one
would be sure that some time or other
one of the servants would steal it; but
if the money is given to a servant he
would guard it with his life.
LITTLE CHANCE OF PERJURY.
Why Circumstantial Evidence Is Regarded
by Many Lawyers as Strong.
Writers in the law periodicals are ad
vocating all sorts of strange doctrines
at present. 'One correspondent thinks
that circumstantial evidence should
have scarcely any weight. His argu
ment is that when direct evidence is
given there is only the perjury of the
witness to be guarded against, while in
circumstantial evidence there are both
the possibility of perjury and the lia
bility to a wrong inference from the
circumstances. The strength of cir
cumstantial evidence, according to
most writers, however, is that there is
little probability of perjury, as the cir
cumstances frequently are slight in
themselves ana not likely to be dis
torted by the witnesses who do not
know of their full effect. The New
York Tribune regards it as probable
that many more unjust convictions
have taken place from perjured direct
evidence than from mistaken infer
ences from circumstances. Ardemus
Stewart, in the American Law Reg
ister, belittles the value of expert evi
dence to an even greater extent than
most previous writers. English law
yers, writing to the London papers,
have advocated to some extent a
strange plan for doing away with all
oaths in legal proceedings, on the
ground that perjury is so common that
simple declarations to which the same
penalties for incorrect statements
might attach would be just as valua
ble as testimony given under the pres
ent form. Another new theory which
has found its advocate is that in crim
inal trials, except for treason, the de
fense, as well as the prosecution, shall
be conducted by public officials. This
suggestion is rather more startling
than any of the others, and is even
more unlikely than they of adoption.
It may be that in the superabundance
of law periodicals, writers find it easier
to invent a theory than to make some
valuable contributions to legal liter
ature. Alloys for Aluminum.
Pure aluminum is too pliable for
some of the uses to which it has been
proposed to devote it, but experiments
in alloying it will unquestionably in
crease the serviceability and applica
tions of that metal in time. Chromium,
the addition of which has such a good
etTect in hardening steel, has lately
been tried abroad with aluminum.
The result is gratifying, but the diffi
culties of effecting the combination
are great. Wolfram, a mineral con
taining tungsten, iron and manganese,
has also been alloyed with aluminum,
and the product has lately been placed
on the market in Knirland. This metal
is almost as light as pure aluminum,
but more ductile and harder. It can
be worked tike mild steel.
Phesipent Axgell of the Boston
Humane society says that Prof. Louis
Agassiz. the greatest scientist we ever
had on the American continent, was a
fi
du
rm believer in the immortality of
dumb animals.

Only the Scars Remain.
"Among the many testimonials which I
ee in regard to certain medicines perform
ing cures, cleansing the blood, etc.," writes
Hknkv Ilunsow, of the James Smith
Woolen Machinery Co.,
Philadelphia, Pa., "none
impress me more than my
own case. Twenty years
ago, at the age ot 18 years,
I had swellings come on
my legs, which broke aud
became ruuuinK sores.
Oar family physician could
do me no good, and It was
feared that the hones
would be affected. At last,
my good old mother
urged me to try Ayer's
Sarsaparllla. I took three
bottles, the sores healed,
and I have not been
troubled since. Only the
Scars remain, and the
memory of the past, to
remind me of the good
Ayer's Sarsaparllla has done me. 1 now
weigh two hundred and twenty pounds, and
am in the best of health. I have been on the
road for the past twelve years, have noticed
Ayer's Sarsaparllla advertised in all parts
of the United States, and always take pleas
ure in telling what good it did for me."
For the cure of all diseases originating In
Impure blood, the best remedy is
