PATENTS! " " COUNTRY DANCE. . sL , , , - "S, '' """"" 7V, . I'M;. A. B. MONTI. &f UL ft ! I I f fei- . - - . ' . i.i. i n . " mmmm i i NOTICE TO INVENTORS. Tbere was never a time in the history of oar ooantry when the demand fur inventions and improvements in the arts and soienoes generally was so great as J now. The oonvenienees of mpjkind in the factory and workshop, the household and on the farm, as well as in official life, require oontinuai accessions to the appurtenance and impliments of each in order to Bave labor, time and expense. The political ohange 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 bim from quickly oonoeiving the remedy to overoome existing discrepan cies. Too great cjre cannot be exer o'eed in oboosing a competent and skill ful attorney to prepare and prosecute, an application for patent. Valuable in terests have been lost and destroyed iu innumerable instances by the employ ment of incompetent counsel, and es pecially is this advioe applicable to those who adopt the "No patent, no pay" system. Inventors who entrust their business to this olass of attorneys do so at imminent risk, bs the breadth and strength of the patent is sever con sidered in view of a quick endeavor to get an allowance Bnd obtain the fee. THE PRESS CLAIMS COMPANY, John Wedderburn, General Manager 618 K street, N. W.,Wa8bingtou, D. 0., representing a large number of impor tant daily and weekly papers, and gen-, eral periodicals of the eountry, was in stituted to oroteot its natrons from the unsafe methods heretofore employed in this line of business. The said Gon pany is prepared to take charge of all patent business entrusted to it for rea sonable fees, and prepare and proBeoute applications generally, inoluding me chanical inventions, design patents, trade-marks, labels, copyrights, interfer ences, infringements, validity reports, Bnd gives especial attenion to rejected cases. It is also prepared to entor into competition with any firm in securing foreign patents. Write for instructions and advice. John Wedderhubn. KlH F Ktreet, i O. Box 385. Washington, D. C.

Joseph Buhl, a hopraiser of Lebanon, was returning from his bop ranch Mon day night. About 7 o'olook, as be was oroseing a bridge over a oanal in tbe out skirts of town, unknown parties struck bim over tbe bead with a club or sand bag, robbed bim of $215 and threw bis body into tbe oanal. The cold water revived bim, and he managed to get out and was helped home. Nothing oould be found of the robbers. It is thought Bubl's injuries will not prove fatal. I'llta! Piles!

It has been found that on account of its porosity and its peculiar quality of absorbing and retaining transferred impressions, which it puNsesses in as marked a deprce as the lithographic stone, that it is especially adapted for the same kind of work. Its advantage over the stone, how ever, and that which renders it so much more desirable, is its great light ness; for while a printing sheet of aluminum having a surface of thirty by forty inches, and the fortieth of an infh in thickness, weighs only three pounds, a stone of the same dimen sions weighs at least four hundred pounds. As the metal is now selling in rolled sheets at a dollar a pound, and a stone ol good quality and of the weight stated is worth one hundred dollars, the difference in price of the two is ninety-seven dollars. In consequence of the increasing demands of the lith- ographic trade, the supply of the best! quality of stone is rapidly becoming ! exhausted, while aluminum, whioh, is j obtained frolu clay, and VihWh l ; ,' "For Years," n . Chester- Held, N. 11., "I was afflicted Willi un extremely severe pain In the lower part ot the chest. The feeling was an It a too weight was laid on a spot the size of my hand. Dur ing the attacks, the perspiraMon would stand in drops on my face, and it whs I ugotiy for me to 'make sufficient effort even to wliis. per. They came ' suddenly, at any hour of the day or night, lasting from thirty minutes to half a day, leaving as suddenly; hut, for several days after, I was quite pros trated and sore. Sometimes the attacks were almost dally, then less frequent. After aliottt four years of this suffering, I was taken down with bilious typhoid fever, and when I began to recover, 1 had the worst attack of my old trouble 1 ever expcrleneed. At the first of the fever, my mother gave me Ayer's Pills, my doctor recommendlnR them as being better than anything he conld prepare. I continued taking these Pills, and so great was the benefit derived that during nearly thirty years I have had but one attack of my former trouble, which yielded readily to the same remedy." OYER'S PILLS Prepared by Dr. J. C. A yer Co., Lowed, tit Every Dose Effective that account the most abundant metal on the earth, is practically inexhaus tible. . As an illustration of the contrast presented by the two materials it may be stated that one ton of alumi num sheets will do the work now per formed by the two hundred tons of stone stored in one of the largest litho graph establishments in New York city. It may be further stated that while the capital invested in this large supply of lithographic stone is about six hundred thousand dollars, the price of the one ton of aluminum sheets which would be required for the same work would be about two thousand dollars, exclusive of the cost of preparing the metal and the neces sary printing blocks which wouldanot exceed two thousand more. Regarding the quality of the work, the specimens of printing done, en the aluminum sheets is such that they can be employed in the finer kind fbond printing and commercial as well as color work. There is one particular in which the metal is decidedly su perior to the stone, in its flexibility, which renders it especially available for cylinder printing, by which a two fold or three-fold speed may be ob tained in the printing process. Experiments of the costly nature have been conducted during the past two years, looking to the perfection of the application of the metal to the purpose of this kind of printing bv Mr. L. L. Bullock and Mr. John Muilaly, both of New York city. They have secured patent rights which amply cover their processes, and they expect soon to be in the market with a large plant capable of meeting all demands.
