PATENTS!
NOTICE TO INVENTORS.
Tbere was never a time In the hiBtor
ofonr coaotry when the demand for
inventions and improvements in the arts
and sciences generally was so great as
now. The conveniences of mpjltind in
the factory and workshop, the household
and on the farm, an wi: an in official
life, require continual neceHB'oDS to the
Bppartenanoe and implements 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 bim from quickly oouoeiving the
remedy to overcome existing discrepan
cies. Tno great owe cannot be exnr
oved in choosiug a competent and Bkill
ful attorney to prepare and prosecute
an application for patent. Valuable in
terests have been lost and destroyed in
innumernble instances bv 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 class of attorney?
do o at imminent risk, as the breadth
and strength of the patent is never con
sidered in view of a quick endeavor to
get an allowance and obtain the fpe.

rare curiosity is a piece of parchment
on which is penned the Lord's Prayer
in fifty-four languages. It is said to
be a duplicate of a parchment which
hangs in Ht. Peter's at Rome. It came
to this country in the mail from Eu
rope in 1843, and, as It was never
claimed and its origin could not be
traced, it was sent to the dead letter
office, where It has been on exhibition
ever since. One of the prettiest things
in the cabinet is a lady's fan made of
stork feathers, the plumes being rarer
and richer than the finest ostrich
plumes.

A few years ago there came to the
dead letter office a tin can upon which
no address could be found. The can
was opened, and sixteen lively looking
rattlesnakes made their escape. There
was a stirring scene in the dead letter
office for a few minutes.
Bottllng- Tears.
The custom of bottling tears tn pe
culiar to the people of Persia. There
it constitutes an important part of the
obsequies of the dead. As the mourn
ers are sitting round and weeping the
master of ceremonies presents each
one with a piece of cotton wool or'
sponge with which to wipe away the
tears. The cotton wool or sponge is
afterward squeezed into a bottle, and
the tears are preserved as a powerful
and efficacious restorative for those
whom every other medicine has failed
to revive, it is to wis custom that ftl
