PATENTS!
NOTICE TO INVENTORS.
Tbere was never a time in the hip.f ry
of our country when the demand for
inventions and improvements in the arts
and sciences generally was so great as
now. The conveniences of meukind in
the faotory and workshop, the household
and on the farm, as well as in official
life, require continual accessions to the
appurtenance and 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
being on the alert, and ready to perr
ceive the existing deficiencies, does not
permit the affairs of government to de
ter bim from quickly conceiving the
remedy to overcome existing discrepan
cies. Too great care cannot be exer
oieed in ohoosing a competent and skill
ful attorney to prepare and prosecute
an application for patent. Valuable in
terests have been lout 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 ao 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 fee.

Will CURE YOU-
A Bright Lad,
Ten years of age, but who declines to give his
name to the public, make9 this authorized,
confidential statement to us:
"When I was one year old, my mamma died
of consumption. The doctor said that I,
too, would soon die, and ah our neiKhhors
thought that even if I dW not die, 1 would
never be able to walk, because I was so
weak and puny. A gathering formed and
broke under my arm. 1 hurt my finifer and
It gathered and threw out pieces of bone.
If I hurt myself so as to break the skin, tt
was sure to become a running .sore. . I had
to take lots of medicine, but nothing has
done me so much good as AVer's Sarsapa
rilla. It has made me well and strong."

How tn f.t $100 and Perhaps Make a
F irtnue.
We secure patents and to induce
people to keep track of their bright

dollars to he paid on the first of every

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 HARD AS IT SEEMS.
The idea ot being able to invent some
thing strikes most people as being very
difficult; this delusion ' the company
tvlshea to dispel. It is the simple things
aud small inventions that make the
greatest amount of money, and the com
plex ones are seldom profitable. Almost
everybody, at some time or another,,
conceives an idea, which, if patented,
wonld probably be worth to him a
fortune, Unfortunately snob ideas are
usually dismissed without thought. The
simple inventions like the car window
which nould be easily slid np and down
without breaking the passenger's back,
the sauce pan, collar button, tbe not look,
the bottle stopper, the snow sboVel, are
things that almost everyone sees some
way of improving npou, and U is these
kind ot inventions that bring tbe greatest
returns to the author.
The prize we offer will be paid At the
end of eoh month, whether the appli
cation lias oeen acted upon by the
Patent Office or not. livery competitor

YOUTH 'AND CRIME,, ,,,,
la Franre the Moot Atrocious- Crtqiee
Are , Committed by young; Mra.-
The connection between crime and
youth is now one of the problems that
are being most seriously discussed in
France. One would nnturnlly suppose,
saya the St. James Gazette, that the
most, atrocious and the most callous
criminals would be those who had
reached mature age in a career of
crime, llut such is not the case. The
most darinp, the most sanguinary and
the most hardened criminals with
whom French justice has had to deal
of late years have been, with few ex
ceptions, mere youths. The. great ma
jority have been under twenty years.
"I had supposed," says M. Guillot.
"that during my long career as jnge
d'instruction 1 had seen the lowest
depth of human corruption; but it is.
only since 1 have had to do especially
with young criminals that I have be
come acquainted with it." We learn
from him that many a Paris boy be
longing to the class from which the
prisons are chiefly supplied is com
pletely debauched .at the. age of thir
teen. This magistrate, of the republic
has had the courage to de-'lare tha
the official withdrawal of religious ia:
fluence from the' instruction im'rye'd
upon the children of fhe people har-
ha4 much to do with the production of
this youthful typ of criminal, who.
when he is before the judge. bes not
shed even a hypocritical tear, but ap
pears really astonished nt the 'explana
tions asked of him for his evil conduct.

that the passing away of the religious
ideal is apt to entail the abandonment
of all ideals and the loss of all sense ot
duty. . To English people such an ex
pression of opinion may seem super
fluous; but iri France it has upon a host
of politicians much, the same effect as
a red rag is said to have on a bull. ' It
must be remembered how many men of
leading, if not of light, have striven In
Franee since the fall of the empire' to
realize the ideal of . an . atheistical
state. It is true that pot a few of them,
discouraged by a reaction of public
opinion, have considerably modified
their policy; "but it still remains the
cherished dream of the republican who
prides himself on being thorough
paced and considers 'S3 a glorious date
in French history. , , . . .
An Imperial Silrer Wedduiff.
The silver wedding of the emperor
and empress of Japan, according to
foreign papers, was ' celebrated with
great pomp a few weeks ago. There
was a review of the soldiers in the after
noon, and in the evening there was a
gala dinner, to which all the prominent
officials and their wives and foreigners
were invited. Afterward there was a
reception and dance in the throne-room.
Male dancers produced the famous
'banzairaku," a dance which was
composed by the Emperor Yomei
1.300 rears ago the "taiheirakn,"
which was the- fashion 1,037 years
ago, and the "bairo," a dance brought
from India about the year .600
which, in. its various evolutions, rep
resents the subjection of all enemies of
the' state. ' All the guests received
