PATENTS!
STELLA.
NOTICE TO INVENTORS.
Tbere was never a time in the history
of our ooaotry when the demand (or
inventions and improvements in the arts
and sciences generally was bo great as
now. The conveniences of mpakind in
the faotory and workshop, the household
and on the farm, as well as in official
life, require continual accessions to the
appurtenauce and impliments of each
in order to saye labor, time and expense.
The political chunge 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 oouoeiviug the
remedy to overoome existing discrepan
cies. Too great care cannot be excr
eted in ohoosing a competent and skill
ful attorney to prepare and prosecute
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 class of attorneys
do so at imminent risk, as the breadth
and strength of the patent is never con
sidered in view of a quick endeavor to
get an allowanoe aud obtain the fee.

The scene of the accident on the
l'lorida Southern railway is on the
cdf'e of Payne's prairie, w here twenty
thousand acres of rich land mipfht
yield ("ruin cuotiji-h to require an im
mense stontj.ro capacity. The spot is
ctntrully situated for water transporta
tion nf the erop across the prairie by
its central (lraiu:iv canal, and is easily
iiceessible from a region where there
;irc no larjre prairies to cultivate.
Near tlaiuesville and in the city
there are i:iany places where it is often
noticed that where horses trot over
them a hollow sound dimes from the
'.'round. I have traced on some of
these spots the very same lines that are
found nt the sinks. At Ocala, Dade
City, Tampa and Port Tatnpn City I
have found the same lines, and I have
la-en told of many other places where
these lines have been traced by ffentie
mcn interested iu the same Hue of In
vest ij.'at ion.
Ucasoiiincf from the line found at
the sinks, wells and tunnels that are
known, the same lines bcinjf found
w here no sink or well now exists, the

leads to; but water and ipiicksatul

means nf the explorer, so that it still
remains a mystery, ami no one has yet

How It Once Induced Jamea Gordon Ben
nett to Kame a I'rennmnn'a Salarv.
James Gordon Bennett is very erratic
in his movements, lie, "drops in" upon
his branch ofllces in Paris or London
without any notice beinj,' sent of his
coining;, and delights to surprise the
clerks by overhauling their books and
examining their accounts. On one of
these occasions, says the L'tica Observer,
one of the pressmen, a man who had
worked for the elder liennett, und was
an excellent workman, though guilty
of an occasional lapse from sobriety,
had a bad black eye and was in a
fptandary us to what excuse he should
offer if Mr. liennett noticed it. Act
ing on a sudden inspiration he seized
an ink roller und ru hired a duub of Ink
on the side of his face completely con
cealing the discoloration of the skin.
Presently Mr. liennett came Into the
press room, und with the superintend
ent,. John Hays, went curefully through,
criticising every detail, and looking
sharply at each employe. When alxiut
to leave he turned suddenly, and,
pointing to the besmirched pressman,
he said:
"Mr. Hays, what Is that man's name?"
The culprit quaked In his shoes until
Mr. liennett said, slowly:
"I wunt you to give that man three
dollars per week more wages; he is the
only man In the room who looks as If
he had been working."

The idea of being1 able to invent some
thing strikes most people asheim very
difficult; this delusion the compsDy
wishes to dinpel. Ii is the simple things
and small iuveotinns Ibiit uiske the
greatest amount of money, stid the com
plex ones are seldom prntituble. Almost
ever) body, at some time or snotber,
conceives nn ides, which, if patented,
OOl.l probably be worth to him
fortune. Ut fortunately sucb ideas are
usually dismissed without tboimht. The
simple inventions like the rar window
which could be easily slid np and down
without breaking the passenger's back,
the sauce pan, collar button, the nnt look,
the bottle stopper, the snow shovel, are
things that almost everyone sees some
wsy of improving npon, and it is these
kind of inventions that bring the greatest
return In the author.
