PATENTS!

NOTICE TO INVENTORS.
Tbere wjs never a time in the history
ot onr coaDtry when the derannd for
inventions and improvements in the arts
and sciences generally was bo great as
now. The conveniences of mpjkiod in
the faotory and workshop, the household
and oo the farm, as wi: as in official
life, require continual wccfcsn'ons to the
appurtenance bdU implimeDts of each
in order to save labor, time and expense.
The political change in the adminmtra
thm of government does not affect the
progress of the American inventor, who
being on the alert, ami ready to per
ceive the existing deficiencies, does not
permit the affairs of government to de
ter bim from illicitly oouoeiving the
remedy to overoome existing discrepan
cies. Too great cire cannot he exr
oVed in choosing a competent and skill
ful attorney to prepare and prosecute
an application for patent. Valuable in
terests have been loot and destroyed iu
innumerable instances bv the employ
ment of incompetent counsel, and es
pecially is tbis 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
and strength of the patent is uever con
sidered in view of a quick endeavor to
get an allowance and obtain the fee.

Old English Words Appear In New
Guiso Here.
Loral Rustic Dialects Are Composed Al.
most Entirely of Older Forms ot
Words Now Obsolete Somo
Queer Fhrasos.
The EDprlish of bock-reading' Ameri
cans differs from that of educated Eng
lish people, writes Edward Egleston
in Century, only in those superficial
traits that are the unavoidable result of
a different environment and the lluetua
tions of fashion. But along; the bhoro
of a stream the current moves more
slowly, and suffers eddies and backsets.
Much old English of the days of Crom
well, some that goes back farther even
than to "Queen Marie's daies," will be
found in the dialect speech of rustic
neighborhoods in America. There are
facts in the history of Euglish words
that will never bo known until some of
the younger American philologists go
afield in seaivh of the living forms that
grow in the soil about them, and that
are not less instructive- than the dia
lectsof England assiduously gathered
by a multitude of observers, or the
patois of the V rench country to which
Littre was not above paying his re
spects. Disavowing any pretension to be
a philologicul expert, I propose to write
here as an observer of American folk
speech. On that portion of the history
of the English language which has to
do with its conditions and changes in
this country, and on that alone, I may
claim to speak with some authority, if
the life-long habit of studying tho
people's speech, exceptional opportuni
ties for observing it in many widely
separated districts, and an extensive
acquaintance with writings of all sorts,
printed and manuscript, of tho colonial
period, can give authority.
English travelers very early mention
the differences, between colonial speech
and that of the mother country. This
arose partly from tho great number of
new objects and processes that must
have names and partly from English
provincial words adopted into general
speech in America. For example,
"swamp," with a far-reaching Scandi
navian ancestry, and uo doubt a long
provincial use in England, had to .be
explained to English readers, though
its use appears to have been general in
the American colonies. l!y 1070 it had
passed into a verb in common use in
Massachusetts; thus Xiniret, the Iu
diau chief, is said ta have "swampjd
hiiUM'lf when he had hidden iu a
wooded morass. In 1T;;0 "swamp"
formed part of a compound word;
"swamp-law," in Maine tdood forcer
tain oxira-judicial methods of attain
ing ju:,tioe known to all rude and pio
neer lands, the word swamp, like
many other provincials of tho time,
bettered its fortunes by immigration,
and was received into good English so
ciety when it went bade.
There ore indigenous words in our
folk-speech, but our local rustic dia
lects nre composed nlmrwt entirely of
words m tneir older forms or older
senses, of English words cow quite ob
solete, aud of words from provincial
English dialects. When first I heard
farmers in the Lake (Jeorge region call
u "em.-; lip" a "cov:dop," I smiled to
think li,-.v modern the corruption wa

word nine centuries ago. The etymol
ogists miss tho history of this word,
and of tho word "slop," by not know
in that, both as noun and verb, "slop"
refers to any liquid or semi-liquid food
for cattle, and this over so wide a re
gion of America as to make its an
tiquity certain.
Take another expression that seems
strictly American. "Sho is in a perfect
gale," one says of a little girl or a
young woman in a state of effervescent
mirth. It is easy and natural to sup
pose this to be modern, and to derive it
from a seafarer's figure of speech. Eut
the Danes who settled in England
r.poke a tongue very much like the
Icelandic, and there is in this speech
the word "gall" with a long vowel
meaning a "tit of gayety," so that
Anglo-Danish ladies in the court
of Knut probably "got into a
perfect gale" as our American wom
en and girls do now. In New
England they have the verb to "train"
for to romp. For this I can find no re
mote ancestry; it may have come from
the New England "trainin'," with its
rum, cider and ginger bread, but I do
not think it so recent as that.
I have given enough examples to
show that the mor.t ancient and least
mutable part of a language is the
residuum the folk-speech. Fashions
may change, but the countryman is
slow to give up the ways and words of
his forefathers. If the world'schangcs
knock tho sense out of a word, he will
put another meaning into it with at
little alteration as possible. Some ol
the provincial English people 6ay "hal
lo wday" for holiday or holy day. But
New England hallowed no holidays,
and kept holv no holy days but the
Sabbath. So from holiday, or the broad
sound of hallow-day. some of our
northern farmers get "hollow-day"
that is, a day with no work in it. They
attach quite another sense to "hollow"
when they note the condition of the
atmosphere in which sound is easily
carried. "The air is so hollow that I
can hear a train ten miles off," one will
say.
A Coek;ito: s IVralinr Whim.
In the exhibit of Mile. Mariska 5Iik

The idea of being iible to invent some

difficult; this delusion the company
wiHbes to dispel. It is the simple things
und small inventions ibut mnke the
grantest amount of tv.onry, and the com
plex ones Hre seldom profitable. Almost
ever) body, at some time or Buotber,
oouceives mi iden, which, if pStented,
would probably be worth to him a
fortune. Unfortunately eneh ideas are
iiFUHlly dismissed without thought. Tbe
simple inventions like tbe car window
which could be easily slid np and down
without breaking tbe passenger's back,
the sauce pHn, collar button, tbe nnt look,
the bottle stopper, the snow sbovel, are
things tlint almost everyone sees some
way of improving upon, aud it is thes
kind of inventions that bring tbe greatest
returns to the author.
Tbe priz we rffer will be paid at the
