PATENTS! NOTICE TO INVENTORS. There was never a time In the history of our ooantry when the demand for inventions end improvements in the arts and scienoes generally was so great as now. The conveniences of mankind in the faotory and workshop, the household and on the farm, as well as in official life, require oontinuBl accessions to the appnrtenanoe and impliments of each in order to save 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 osre cannot be exer- oised in ohoosing a oompetent and skill ful attorney to prepare and proseoute 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 this advice 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, 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. THE PRESS CLAIMS COMPANY, John Wedderburn, General Manager 618 K street, N. W.,Washington, D. C, representing a large number of impor tant daily and weekly papers, and gen eral periodicals of the eountry, was in stituted to oroteot its patrons 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 applioations generally, inoluding me ohanioal inventions, design patents, trade-marks, labels, copyrights, interfer ences, infringements, validity reports, and gives especial attenion to rejected cases. It is also prepared to enter into competition with any firm in seouring foreign patents. Write for instructions and advice. John Wkddhrbubn. 18 P Street, P. 0. Box 385. Washington, D.

Wooldiudge, of Wortham, Texas, saved the life of her child by the us ol Ayer's Clierry Pectoral. U "One of my children had Croup. Tho case was attended by our physiemn. and was supposed to be well under control. One night I was startled by the child's hard breathing, and on going to it found it stran gling. It had nearly ceased to breathe. Realizing that the rhifd'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 hpttle o( Ayer'sfherry Pectoral in the house, I gave the child three dnses. ;it short intervals, and anxiously waited results. From the moment the Pectoral was given.

We secure patents and to induce people to keep track of their bright Ideas we offer a prize of one hundred dollars to be paid on the first of every month to the person who submits to us the most meritorious invention daring the proceeding month. We will also advertise the invention free of charge in the National Recorder, a weekly news paper, published in Washington, D. C, whioh has an extensive circulation throughout the United States and is devoted to the interests of inventors. NOT SO HAKD AS IT BEEMS. The idea of being able to invent some thing strikes moat people as being very ditfioult; this delusion the company wishes to dispel. It is the simple things and small inventions that make the greatest amount of money, and the com plex ones are seldom profitable. Almost everybody, at some time or another, oonoeives an idea, which, if patented, would probably be worth to him a fortune. Unfortunately snob ideas are usually dismissed without thought. The simple inventions like the car window whioh could be easily slid up and down without breaking tbe passenger's back, the sauce pan, collar button, the nut look, the bottle stopper, the snow shovel, are things that almost everyone sees some way ot improving upon, and it ia these kind of inventions that bring the greatest returns to the author. Tbe pn8 w offer will be paid at the end of each month, whether the appli cation has been acted upon by the Tatent Office or not.

What an mgallaiit London Writer Haa to Say of tho New Woman." The "new woman" is served up in this particularly ungallant fashion in Jerome K. Jerome's paper, To-Day: "In the west end of London there are plenty of vapid, brainless, heartless, overdressed-in-the-afteruoon and un-dcrdressed-in-the-evening: little ani mals, that, there being no other name at present for, we have to call women. They are vicious, selfish and idle. They sell themselves for money and then do not carry out the terms of the bargain. They marry, but they are never wives. They are blood-suckers on the unfortu nate men who have been asses enough to undertake the responsibility of feed ing and clothing them. They will ruin them in their business and worry them into early graves rather than go with out an extra new dress. They have children, but they are not mothers; they have not even the Instincts of the bettr-class brutes. Self-indulgent and stupid, they drift through life, ever lastingly whining aud posturing, a bore to themselves and a curse to everyone who knows them. They cry that they are misunderstood, which would be the most charitable thinp that could happen to them, and they talk about their soul with as much as surance as if they really possessed one. They take all they can get. they do nothing for it. and they are never sat isfied. Hut I should be sorry to take them as types of their sex, and to talk about them as the new women. They are types oi nothing hut a social dn eM." ... mf ... SUMMER. By HENRY COHN, - -0- ' -X-X- 0- - - II II I xezz ttez b, Fd-H-i t - tpt -0- m v 11 JE: 1 L-Wl rxji tt New York Musical Record Co.

Dr. Swayne Jc Son, Philadelphia, FROGS AND WASPS.- The Former Eat tho Latter and Soem to Enjoy Them Very Much. Some time apo I discovered, acci dentally, that frofjs are voracious eat ers of wasps. I have in my garden a tank for watering, with an island of rockwork, which is a favorite haunt of the frogs, avrites R. E. Bartlett in the London Spectator. The wasps just now are carrying on a raid against my fruit, and when I wish to gratify at once my revenge and my frogs 1 catch a ma rauder between a post card and an in verted wine glass, carry him oil to the tank, wet his wings to prevent his fly ing, and set him on the rockwork be fore the frogs. After a moment's pause a frog ad vances, and in an instant the wasp has disappeared, drawn into the frog's mouth by a single dart of his long tongue. Occasionally the wasp reap pears, wholly or partially, having made it unpleasant for the frog, but he is al most always swallowed in the end. Usually convulsive movements may be noticed in the frog's throat and body, as though the process ol deglutition were not quite easy; but that they like the diet is evident from the fact that a single smallish frog has been known to take three wasps one after another. Indeed, it is remarkable what very small frogs, quite infants, will swallow a wasp with avidity.
