PATENTS.


A Decision OF Importance 10 inventors.
The following decision of the commissioner
Of patents is one Of interest to inventors:
az am called upon to decide whether an
officer or emplOye of this bureau may file and
prosecute an application for patent. Sec
ton $50 of the revised statutes provides that
all officers and employees of the patent office
shall be incapable, during tho period for
which they hold their appointments, to ac-
quiro or takc, directly or indirectly, except
by inheritance or bcqucst, any right or in
tcrost in any patent issued by the Office
That the section Just quoted renders all
officers and employees of the bureau incapable
of acquiring, directly or indirectly, any in
terest whatever in patent Is clear. | am
equally clear that they are alike prohibited
from filing or prosecuting an application for
n patent IL would seem on its face absurd TO
hold that party may file and prosecute a
claim TO obtain right or privilege in which
he is by express provision of statute made in
capable Of acquiring any interest whatever.
An application Is the basis upon which the
right to patent rests. IL Ia the evidence of
applicants title to the exclusive right or
privilege sought. But since he eau acquire no
interest in tho thing itself, to say that he
might, nevertheless, take steps to establish his
title thereto would BIO to pronounce an alb
suidity. Tho roasop upon which the section
rests is clear. The Proceedings Of the bureau
in the matter of considering tho claims are
secret, and for obvious reasons. 1t would be
palpably unjust to allow those who, by virtue
of their employment, learn the nature, char
acter, and scope of ali applicants invention
to enter the field rs u competitor to obtain a
patent for tho same or n similar invention,
and especially when such an officer or en-
ployo may be charged with the duty of pass
ing upon the patentability of the invention
mentioned and described in his competitors
application. Public policy and common jus
tice to tho inventors of the country who are
prosecuting claims for patents before this
office, render it necessary that the section Of
the statute which renders tho officers and
employees of tho patent Office incapable dur
ing the period for which they hold their APP
pointmcnt, Of acquiring any interest in a
patent be stictly enforced. Applications filed
in contravention OF the statute as construed
herein will be returned to the party filing
the same. Ofcourse the fee will be returned"

Thr Cndcts, Pound Party.

The committee of ladies who had charge
of tho pound party given last week at the
armory Of the Washington Cadet Corps met
last Saturday evening at the residence of
Mrs. II. p. Montgomery, No. 1914 Eleventh
street northwest, to consider what further
service they could render the Associated
Charities in caring for the poor Having on
hand nearly 500 collected from various
sources they voted to donate $25 to the asso-
citation and $40 to each of the seven districts
into which the city was divided by the com.
mittee, to be used iu affording relief to such
special cases as may be brought to notice in
tho immediate neighborhood. A vote of
thanks was extended to Col. George w.
Arnold, who acted us master of ceremonies ON
tho night of the pound party; to Capt c. A.
Fleetwood, through whose kindness the
armory was procured free of charge; to the
various churches that responded 50 literally
to their call for aid, and to all the ladies and
gentlemen who contributed to make the &C.
casion such an admirable success.

The process OF loss OF hair may take take place
either rapidly In the course weeks months or as
generally the case, the loss is slow and gradual
through period of years. The hairs may commence
to come ont AT any period amer prObcrly although
badness does not ordinarily begin TO manifest itself
until the age of 20 or 30 years. The scalp through
hcprocCss appears to be healthy. At first only
replaced Immediately by shorter and finer growth
ofhair. Later these, IN turn are she'd and sue
ceeded by still finer hairs, and In the Of time
even these cease to appear, when complete badness
of certain portion OF the scalp Is tho result. There
may be IN appearance of fine down, which proves
that the hair folliCc stl exists and can be made to
produce healthy hair again by proper treatment.
The prevalence of premature badness among our
young men and women of the present day Is really
Surprising. Badness is designated by the parts of the
scalp affected. Thus we have Crown Frontal Part,
and Temple Badness. The last two are so much
dreaded by ladies' DR.. VAN DYCk positively cures
badness Remember bndncssis durable so long the
hair iOlllclgs ARE not destroyed. DIR. VAN DNCK,
DermNtOOgiSt, has perfected scientific capillary
treatment which enables him to cure badness even
