PATENTS!
NOTICE TO INVENTORS.
Tbere was never a time in the liistor
of our country when the demuml for
inventions end improvements in the arts
and sciences generally was so great ae
now. The conveniences of rnHjkitid in
the factory and workshop, the household
and on the farm, a well an in official
life, require continual accessions to the
appurtenance and implimenta 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 dcfiaiencies, does not
permit the affairs of government to de
ter bim from quickly oouoeiving the
remedy to overcome existing discrepan
cies. Too great oare cannot be exer
o:sed in choosing a competent and skill
ful attorney to prepare and prosecute
au application for patent. Valuable in
terests have been loat and destroyed in
innumerable instances by the employ
ment of incompetent counsel, and es
pecially is tuiB advice applicable to
those who adopt the 'No patent, no
pay" system. 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
nidered in view of a quick endeavor to
get an allowance and obtain the fee.

Saved Her Life.
Mrs. O. J. Wooldkidoe, of Wortham,
Texas, saved the life of her child by the
use of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
"One of my children had Croup. The
case was attended by our physician, and was
supposed to he we'll under control. One
night I was startled by the child's hard
breathing, and on going to it found it stran
gling;, "ft hail nearly ceased to breathe.
Realizing that the child's alarming condition
had become possible in spite of the medicines
f riven, I reasoned that such remedies would
e of no avail. Having part of a bottle of
Ayer'B Cherry Pectoral in the house, I 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 short 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."

Last night, saya Friday's Salem States

sheltered 16 helpless men. Nearly the
whole of them had supper and will have

takes a lot of provisions to feed so many,
to say nothing of the work. One tellow

bis fruitless search for work, deoided to

LARGEST ROSE BUSH.
Mobile Has the Honor of Having Thl
Beautlrul Mountain of Flowers.
, "The largest rose bush in the United
States is in Mobile, Ala.," said a citizen
of New Orleans to a reporter for the
St. Louis (ilobe-Democrat. "It belongs
to the species which, in common par
lance, is known as the cluster musk
rose, and blossoms so luxuriously that
during the season from three to four
bushels of roses have been gathered in
one week, and when shedding its
petals the ground beneath is complete
ly covered with its fragrant blossoms.
Its trunk for five feet from the
ground, is nearly a foot in circumfer
ence, and it has been estimated that if
its branches grew on one continuous
vine it would exceed a mile in length.
These branches have entirely covered
the side of the house near which the
bush grows, and have extended to the
neighboring trees surrounding it, so
that when it is in bloom it forms a per
fect bower of roses."
A recullar Frmich Law.
The French are a most peculiar and
exclusive people. A decree has just
been signed by President Carnot for
bidding the marriage of French diplo
mates to foreign wives. This is merely
the revival of an old law and is said to
have been called out by the marriage
of two French diplomats, l'atenotrc and
Dauuay. to American wives. It is dis
claimed that the edict is aimed directly
at Americans, and the object is pre
tended to lw the prevention of the "dis
covery of secrets by foreigners through
the wives of the ministry. The news
papers quote several instances of this
character, in which it is conjectured
that important disclosures have been
made by the wives of French diplo
mates abroad. It is alleged that this
is the main reason why President Car
not signed the edict of prohibition, and
it will prevent several marriaires which
are on the tapis, notably that of the
French minister at Athens to the
daughter o the Itolittn minuter at
Athn
