PATENTS! NOTICE TO INVENTORS. There waa never a time in the hiiftory of our coantry when the demand for inventions and improvements in the artii and sciences generally was bo great as now. The conveniences of mankind in the fHotory and workshop, tlie household and on the farm, as well as in official life, require continual accessions to tho appurtenance anil 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 beu2onthe 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 overoome existing discrepan cies. Too great care cannot be exer cised in ohooBing a competent and skill ful attorney to prepare and prosecute an application for patent. Valuable in terests have been lost and destroyed in innumerable instanoes by the employ ment of inoompetent counsel, and es pecially is this advice applicable to those who adopt the "No patent, no pay" system. Inventors who entrust their business to this class of attorneys do so at imminent risk, as the breadth Bnd strength of the patent is Dever con sidered in view of a quick endeavor to get an allowanoe and obtain the fee. THE PRESS CLAIMS COMPANY, John Wedderburn, General Manager CIS K street, N. W.,Washington, I). C, representing a large numbor of impor tnnt daily and weekly papers, and gen eral periodicals of the country, was in Hlitutod to nroteot its natrons from the unsafe methods heretofore employed in this line of business. The said Con pany is prepared to take charge of all patent business entrusted to it for rea sonable fees, and prepare and proseoute applications generally, inoluding me nhanioal inventions, dosign patents, trade-marks, labols, copyrights, interfer ences, infringements, validity reports, and gives especial attenion to rejected cases.

The idea of being able to invent some thing strikes most people as being very dittioult; this delusion the company wishes to dispel. It is the simple things and small inventions that make the greatest amount of money, aud the com plex ones are seldom profitable. Almost everybody, at some time or another, Conceives an idea, which, if patented, would probably be worth to bim a fortune. Unfortunately such ideas are usually dismissed without thought. The simple inventions like the car window which could be easily slid up and down without breaking the passeuger'g back, the sauce pan, collar button, the nut look, the bottle stopper, the snow shovel, are things that almost everyone sees some way of improviug upon, and it is these kind of inventions that bring the greatest returns to the author. The prize we offjr will be pai 1 at the end of each month, whether the appli cation has been aoted upon by the Patent Office or not.

A Oermaa Band Leader's Idea of the Proper Thing. A good story was told by a Boston man who was in Antwerp while the preparations were in progress for the exposition. Representatives of all na tions were there preparing exhibits from their respective countries. In the evening, says the Washington Star, all the visitors were in the habit of gath ering in a large hall on the grounds to listen to the band play. Out of com pliment to the visitors the national airs of the different countries were played, and received an ovation from the group of that nationality in the hall. The night that our Boston friend attended the band performance this playing of national airs was on the programme. All were played, but not a thing that could lie twisted into an air for the bird of freedom. A delega tion of the Americans went up to the leader and told him that they felt slighted that their country had not been recognized. With profuse apol ogies the leader said it was clearly an oversight, and promised to give them the American air at once. He distrib uted the music, and, waving his baton, the band broke loose, not with any fa miliar patriotic air. but "The Man That Broke the Hank at Monte Carlo." Amazement among the Americans final ly gave away to visions of "Old Hoss" Hoey and his song, and when the band" finished the tumultuous applause from the American delegation elicited an eneorSi 'v . . ,- '.

A Recent Discovery of Great Commercial Importance. At Bradford, England, silk has been made from wood pulp so much like the real thing that it bids fair to occupy a place in commerce and use. It is pro duced by subjecting vegetable fiber to the action of various acids, the re sult being a product said to be identical with the filament of the worm, having its lightness, luster and all its qual ities, including that of durability. Commercially speaking, says the Phil adelphia Ledger, the importance of the discovery can hardly be overestimated, and it is possible that it will produce the most revolutionary consequence in the trade in that commodity every where. The world's stock of silk, both woven and raw, is immense and has al ways held a staple value likely to be much shaken and disturbed by the in trusion of a new supply which can be cheaply and abundantly produced. Samples of yarn, fringe, braid, gimps, sewing silks, handkerchiefs, bro cades and other fabrics, dyed in fvari ous colors, have been exhibited by the Bradford makers to the trade and pro nounced all right and up to the com mercial standard in all respects. With artificial diamonds and rubies such as are now being turned out in great abundance, modern society will doubt less take on a style of splendor hither to unknown, outshining the courts of Solomon or the queen of Sheba or the retinues of MBhmoud or Harouo, Al Raachid, Composer of ' Devotion to May," etc. 4-r-fc l Sv.
