In the breast of every human being there
is an innate yearning for Immortality. The
Indian has faith in the Great Spirit, the
widest sAvages talk of eternity, and even the
brute creation fear death. Annihilstiou is

even the philosopher cannot contemplate it

total extinction. The art OF preserving the
bodies of the dead has been lost to science

WASHINGTON, Novsnbe- TO- SoorAiary
Teller will not in his annual report recommend
a reduction in the cost of Oh tanning patent. He
is persuaded this course it is said from the fact
that the patent laws are now the most liberal of
any in the world. In England It costs $1,000 to OBJ
tain fourteen-year patent; in Germany over
5000; in Russia. about $500. and in
Canada $40, while here 1t sosis but s25
for seyenteen-year patent. 1t is not
thought by Commissioner of Patents Marble, that
reduction in fees would materially increase
the number OF patents taken out, or stimulate IN
vention, the small fee is now within the reach
of all. He thought that the large revenue now
derived from this source was no argument in
favor OF reduction. unless it can be shown that
the fees bear heavily upon deserving Inventors
