The government has recently granted
two patents, which cover probably the
most intricate and complex machine
ever constructed. It is clttimec that be
fore the first machine was perfected
the company constructing it had ex
pended $1,300,000. This first applica
tion filed contained 204 sheets of draw
ings, having over 1,000 separate views.
During the eight years the case was
pending in the office before allowance
the number of sheets was reduced to
163. When it is remembered that the
majority of patents have but n single
sheet of drawings, and that to require
as many as ten sheets is quite un excep
tion, the magnitude of the invention
can be understood. The fees charged
by the patent office are uniform for all
cases, no matter how complex or how
simple $15 for filing the case and $20
additional on allowance of tho patent.
When this case was filed it waa turned
over for examination to an exominer,
who received a salary of $1,800, nnd he
spent six weeks in studying the case
before being able to make the firSl ac
tion. The entire specification was twice
rewritten, each time by a different at
torney. How much this cost the inven
tor is not known, but it is rumored
that the attorney who first prepared the
case received a fee of $10,000 nnd an
allowance of $2,000 extra to pay for
the drawings. While the case was pend
ing the examiner who first had it in
charge resigned from the office, and it
was turned ever to another assistant
of the same rank. This assistant went
over the entire ground three times,
consuming several weeeks, and finally
he was authorized to go to Chicago
and spend a. month in examining a
working machine. When the request
was first made of the commissioner
that the examiner be permitted to make
the trip it was promptlj refused. For
argument the chief of the division then
carried In the papers, making a pile
some two feet thick of unfolded draw
ings and typewritten specification, and
the comroiHHloner said: "lie ran go.
The machine is for the setting, justify
ing and distribution of type. It com
prises no lefts 1 hau 18,000 Beparat c parts.
The patent olfice is a money making
institution. It earns, above expenses,
about $200,000 per year, uud now has
deposited in the treasury a mat little
balance of over $4,000,000. Upon this
job, however, it "ost pbout $1,000 worth
of time of the various patent cfllee of
ficials before maturing Into a patent,
and when Issued the patent rule had
to be followed of prepnring copies for
sale at the regulation price of ten cents
each. The 244 tdicets of drawings hod
to lie photo-Iithi'.prnpheil end 0,e entire
body of the specilleution and claims
set up In t,vie, cont lng fo- the third edi
tion, as estimated by the ordinnry rules,
a few cents over six dollars pr copy.'
These copies are sold to the public for
teu cents each, or 20 cents for the two
patents, covering the entire Invention.

"Be specific in your pleading," she

He hesitated and then asked, earnest

"Ah," she snid, "now I see the point

serious matter," continued the manag
ing editor, musingly. "I don't much
blame those poor men out iu Kansas
who have been holding prayer meetings
in the street in an attempt to break
up the saloon business. They are tak
ing long chances of insult, though.
It's no place for men. I don't see what
their wives are thinking of to let them
do it. We'll have to have a good spe
cial on the subject before long.
"Meanwhile," continued the man
aging editor, coming down to business
again, "tell Mrs. Slasher that I want a
good stiff editorial on the women who
persist in going out between the acts
to see a girl or get a clove. It's an in
sult to the gentlemen they take to the
theater."
"I have that, ma'am," said Helen,
looking up from her notebook. "What
else?"
"Leave a note for Mr. Trettyman
about his society. Twice recently he
has made, the '..intake of referring to
Mr. and Mrs. Jones, instead of Mrs. and
Mr. Jones, ns everyone knows it ought
to be. It's inexcusable."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Then tell the city editor that I want
a good interview with Mrs. Margin, the
president of the board of trade, on the
slump in wheat. There ought to be a
good story in that. 1 understand that
the firm of Mesdames Coupon & Bond
waa badly squeezed and that Jennie
l'lunger made so much that she blew in
$200 or $300 celebrating with the girls
on the board of trade und squared her
self by buying her husband a diumond
ring and ti sealskin coat."
With a wave of the hand the editor of
the future dismissed her private secre
tary and gave her attention to an edi
torial on "The Absurd Claims of the
