PATENTS!

NOTICE TO INVENTORS.
There was never a time in the history
of our ooantry when the demand for
inventions and improvements in the arts
and soienoes generally was so great as
now. The conveniences of mankind in
the fnotory and workshop, the household
and on the farm, as well as in official
life, require oontinuai 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 affeot 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 oare cannot be exer
cised in choosing a competent 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
merit of inoompetent oounsel, and es
pecially is this advice applicable to
those who adopt the "No patent, no
nav" system. Inventors who entrust
their business to this class of attorneys
do so at imminent risk, as the breadtn
mil dtrenoth of the patent is never con
sidered in view of a quiok endeavor to
get Bn allowanoe and obtain the tee,

UREWSOME SIGHTS IN A MINE.
Tbe Trip Down a Unep Shaft Full
ol
Thrill to tho Tenderfoot.
Going down into the mine is indeed
a thrilling experience and one rather
overwhelming to the "tenderfoot,"
says a writer in Cassier's Magazine.
Enveloped in suits of waterproof, with
hats of oilskin and provided with can
dles, a party ready for the descent pre
sents a grewsome spectacle, reminding
one forcibly of certain conceptions of
Dore. The cage, which serves for both
passengers and freight, rises to a level
with the floor of the shafthouse, and
is simply a platform of wood v.-ith up
rights and framing of iron. This fits
closely in the shaft, being lowered and
raised by means of machinery puzzling
enough to the interested stranger,
with its drum, sheaves, cable and vari
ous safety appliances. To take a posi
tion on that little square of wood, feel
ing that on this machinery, "which
does sometimes break, you know,"
hangs all one's hope, requires some
courage. Much comfort is derived
from the assurance of the foreman that
this same cage has safely carried down
and up all the dclvers below with never
an accident yet. With the warning,
"elbows in," the cage drops. With a
gasp one reaches wildly about to find
nothing to hold to in that damp dark
ness, growing so dense as that square
"hole of daylight" diminishes so rapid
ly, and down we glide through trick
ling waters without jar and in utter
silence till, with a thud, the cage stops,
two thousand five hundred feet under
ground.
The dim candle light casts weird
shadows as we follow the superin-l
tendent along a narrow gallery cut in
the igneous rock to connect the vein
with the shaft. At the intersection
another long gallery extends to the
right and left, but its parallel walls
are smooth, often highly polished, at
times four feet apart: again more, but
always with an inclination to the
vertical. These are the faces of the
fissured rock between which, over
head and below, is the vein matter.
Through the gloomy darkness we pick
our way cautiously along the narrow
plank, resting ou ties laid over the
gutterway. lielow us the water rushes
down to the shaft, emptying into the
"sump," a continuation of the shaft
below the lowest level, serving as a
well out of which the water is lifted
by the great pumps, whose continual
beat, up and down, up and down, with
monotonous regularity, breaks the si
lence like the throb of some great hid
den heart. Climbing a ladder, or.
rather, five ladders for there is a plat
form at every twenty feet in Egyptian
darkness, illumined only by the light
of a caudle, with ice cold water dripping
from each round and trickling along
one's arm and a small torrent from
the tarpaulin hat down one's back, is
apt to dampen, if not to eradicate for
ever, any lingering fancy for a miner's
life. I

also of large quantities of more or less
dismal failures. No one will claim
that Gounod was the greatest com
poser of his day; yet he is to be glori
fied while the ashes of Victor Hugo lie
unburied in their dusty coffin, tossed
carelessly into the vaults of the Panth
eon and covered with the moldering
remains of the magnificent floral trib
utes that were sent to do honor to his
funeral, says the Paris correspondent
of the Philadelphia Telegraph.
A statue of Victor Hugo was decided
upon also, but the subscriptions lan
guished and dwindled until they
stopped at an amount of twenty-five
hundred dollars. So the literary giant
of our generation is only commemo
rated by his own great works, and his
neglected coilin is left unremarked,
save by the horrified or indifferent
eyes of the countless tourists who drift
to the Pantheon to see the new fres
coes, painted by the great artists of
France by order of the republic, and
who incidentally explore the vaults of
the huge temple.
Until not very long ago one huge va
cant space was visible at the Pantheon,
among the completed panels that sur
rounded. It. As was courteous to so
great an artist, the government had
offered a section of the Pantheon to
Meissonier to decorate. Meissonier
instantly accepted, although perfectly
conscious he could not paint one of
those huge frescoes any more than a
fly could fire a cannon; but being an
artistic dog in the manger, he could
neither do it himself nor would he al
low anyone else to take the work. Of
course, since his death it is satisfac
torily completed.
QUICK TO OttSERVE.
A Camp of Soldiers Saved by Gyper't
Knowledge of Nature.
People who spend much of their lives
out of doors, particularly in the coun
try, sometimes develop powers of ob
servation and deduction that seem lit
tle short of marvelous to men of indoor
habits. During the Austro-Prussian
war of 1800, when Archduke Joseph of
Austria and his corps were retreating
before the advance of the Prussians,
they encamped one day near a Bohe
mian town, and the archduke was
lodged in a cottage.
At about twelve o'clock at night the
archduke's adjutant reported that a
gypsy soldier wished to see him on a
matter of importance.
On being admitted to the archduke's
presence, the gypsy announced that
the enemy was approaching, and when
asked how he knew, he took the arch
duke to the door, and pointing to sev
eral birds flying over a wood at some
distance, he said:
"liirds sleep as well as people, and
these birds would not be flying about
at this time of night if they had not
leen disturbed. The enemy is march
ing through the woods, and has fright
ened theih."
Kelyiug on the gypsy soldier's knowl
edge, the archduke commanded that
an alarm be given at once. An hour
later the outposts were fighting with
the Irussian soldiers. The camp was
saved, thanks to the quick observation
of the gypsy.
A Celeetlal Harder."
An Egyptian shopkeeper had a deity
to whom he offered sacrifice every
morning, and whose duty it was in re
turn for this reverence to stand in
front of the shop during the day, a sort
of eelestial "barker," and direct the
attention of the people passing1 by to
the shop and i! contents.

PRIZhS ON PATENTS.
How to get 1100 and Perhaps Hake a
Fortune.
We seoare patents aod to induce
people to keep track ot their bright
ideas we offer a prize of one hundred
dollars to be paid on the first of every
month to tbe person who submits lo na
the most meritorious invention daring
the proceeding month. We will also
advertise the invention free of charge in

paper, published in Washington, D. 0
which has an extensive circulation
throughout tbe United States and is
devoted to tbe interests of inventors.
NOT 80 HARD AS IT BKKMS.
The idea of being able to invent tome
thing strikes most people as being very
difficult; this delusion the company
wishes to dispel. It is the simple things
and small inventions that make tbe
greatest amount ot money, and tbe oom
plex ones are seldom profitable. Almost
everybody, at tome time or toother,
oonoeives rd idea, which, if patented,
would probably be worth to bim
fortnne. Unfortunately snob ideas are
usually dismissed without thought. Tbe
simple inventions like the car window
which could be easily slid up and down
without breaking tbe passenger's back,
the sauce pan, oollar button, tbe nut look,
the bottle stopper, tbe snow shovel, tre
things that almost everyone sees some
WBy of improving npon, and it is these
kind of inventions that bring tbe greatest
returns to tbe author.
Tbe prize we offer will be paid at the
end of eaoh month, whether tbe appli
cation has been aoted npon by the
Pateot Office or not. Every competitor
must apply for a patent on bis invention
tbrongb ns, Bnd whether he sec ores the
prize or not, the inventor will have
valuable patent.
