PATENTS!
NOTICE TO INVENTORS.
Tbere was never a time in the history
of our ooantry when the demand for
inventions and improvements in the arts
and sciences generally was so great as
now. The conveniences of me jkind in
the factory and workshop, the household
and on the farm, as well as in official
life, require oonlinuat accessions to the
appurtenance and impliments of each
in order to save labor, time and expense.
The political change in the administra
tion of government does not affeot the
progress of the American inventor, who
being on the alert, and ready to per
ceive tbe ensting deaoiencies, does not
permit the affaire of government to de
ter bim from quickly conceiving the
remedy to overoome existing discrepan
cies. Too great osre cannot be exer
cised in oLoosiug a competent and skill
ful attorney to prepare Bud prosecute
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 tbia advioe applicable to
those who adopt the "No patent, no
pay" system. Inventors who entrUHt
their business to this olass of attorneys
do so at imminent risk, as the breadth
and strength of the patent is never con
sidered in view of a quiok endeavor to
get an allowance and obtain the fee.

Saved Her Life.
Mrs. O. J. Wooi.nn.inoi, of Wortham,
Texas, saved the life of her child by the
use ot Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
"One of my children had Croup. Tha
case was attended by our physician, and was
supposed to he well under control. One
night I was startled by the child's hard
breathine, and on going to it found it stran
gling. It had nearly ceased to breathe.
Realizing that the child's alarming condition
had become possible in spite of the medicines
given, I reasoned that such remedies would
be of no avail. Having part of a bottle of
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral in the house, 1 gave
the child three doses, at short intervals, and
anxiously waited results. From the moment
the Pectoral was given, the child's breathing
grew easier, and, in a shnrt time, she was
sleeping quietly and breathing naturally.
The child is alive and well to-day, and I do
not hesitate to say that Ayer's Cherry Pec
toral saved her life."

UTOPIA IN THE BAY STATE.
Many Advantages Enjoyed by Members of
a Brookllne Cooperative Company.
A number of people living in Brook
line, Mass., arc enjoying many of those
ideal advantages that every house
holder dreams of and, according to the
New York Evening Post, without any
of the vicious results that certain stu
dents of social questions warn us are
inherent in cooperative communities.
These people live in houses perfectly
warmed and lighted by outside powers.
The same or similar powers take curt;
of their sidewalks winter and summer,
wash and sweep the front steps and
look after the lawns and flower beds.
All this is done at a moderate cost.
Each house has in the rear a grass plot
of its own and in the center of the
square formed by the four rows of
houses there is a park with trees and
walks and tenuis courts. In this park
is placed a pretty casino, whero the
members of the community can dance,
bowl or play billiards, except on thise
occastons when some member enrjages
it for a special entertainment. Kir
such events as a dinner, a dance or a
reception, the entire building with its
conservatories may be rented for 83.
This includes the attendance of a
man from 8 to 12 o'clock in the even
ing. Decorations of phtnts and flowers
are to be had at a moderate additional
cost. The caterer's charge for table
service, crockery, etc., for 100 persons
is 87.5a Small and early parties begin
ning at 8 o'clock and with the last
guest gone at 10:30 have the use of the
hnll for $2-50. Of this plan of cooperv
tion a man who has been a householder
twenty-five years says; "This commu
nity of interest in no way trenches up
on privacy, and it is as easy to preserve
seclusion and independence as in a city
block, where neighbors are practically
strangers. I find myself for the first
time, although in the largest house I
have been privileged to occupy, entirely
without tie cares of a household."
