PATENTS AND PROGRESS,
Marvellous Changes Wrought by In.
ventors In Half a Century.
From the Inventive Age,

From the Inventive Age.
One need not be very old to have a distinct
recollection Of his daily life its conditions and
environments, fifty years ago, when the patent
system of the United States was in its early in
fancy. Then the country was almost entirely
agricultural, for our grand career in manufac-
lures and the industrial arts was just begin
ming. 1t virtually began with the patent sys-
tem-the creation Of the patent offce-and it
has actually kept pace with the development
OF that system, SO that this magnificent pro-
gress stands as the indisputable result of the
system. In other words we owe our splendid
achievements in manufactures and the arts to
the stimulus that the patent laws have given
to invention.
Fifty years ago most Of the people of the
United States were clothed from the products
OF the domestic spinning wheel and hand loom.
The itinerant shoemaker went from house to
house, setting up his bench and plying his
vocation in the farmers kitchens. There were
no planning mills; no shops for the manufacture
of doors, sashes and blinds. All the work of
the builder, including carpenters and joiners'
work, was done by hand. The carpenter, il a
good one, got dollar a day. Coal was con-
sumed but by few families in the large cities,
and by nobody in the smaller towns. The
tailors, like the shoemakers, came to the house
and made into clothing the cloth woven by the
mother and daughters, with little help from
the fulling mill that was generally near the
grist mill Of the neighborhood. The railroad
and the telegraph had not yet added their
powers TO the forces Of civilization. This wear.
1889, 10 no more like 1889 than the hand loom is
like cotton factory. Better fifty years Of Eu-
rope than cycle Of Cathay." Better one year of
the life that is lived under the new conditions
than any number Of years Of the hard existence
that was drudged out under the old conditions.
1t is only the hopelessly pessimistic soul, the
constitutional and incurable grumbier, that
does not recognize the blessings that have
come with the march Of invention. For all
those. let 1t be borne in mind, we are indebted
to the system that has fostered invention, and
secured TO inventors the right to enjoy the
products Of their own brains and hands.

DR.. Jean LaFourcsde, who practiced medicine
in New Orleans and kept drug store on

The sticks, when consumed regularly BY in

There is one point we are surprised to find
our friend leaving untouched. Perhaps he con-
siders it included in the warning that no hard
and fast rules for diet can be laid down: but he
might have done well to be little more ex-
plicit. We allude to the necessity for frequent
changes of diet. All things are not good to all
men, and all things are not always good to the
same man. This was point much insisted on
by the wise minds of old. Bacon especially
commends the advice of CELSIUS (whom he
somewhat sarcastically observes, must have
been wise man as well as good physician
that "one OF the great precepts of health and
lasting Is that man do vary and interchange
contraries." The man who confines his studies
within one unchanging groove will hardly find
his intellectual condition SO light and nimble,
SO free of play, go capable Of giving and re-
ceiving, as he who varies them according to his
mood, for the mind needs rest and recreation
no less than the body; it is not well to keep
either always at high pressure.
One fixed, answering system of diet with
out regard to needs and seasons, or even to
fancy, is not wise. One man has not always
the same stomach any more than all men have
the same stomach. What is grateful and nour-
ishing at one time may be found insipid and
even unwholesome at another. Within the
lines marked by experience it is well that the
love OF change, which is natural to all men.
should by given full play. too servile ad-
herence to system which has been found once
beneficial In certain conditions may diminish
or even destroy Its value when those conditions
return. The great secret of existence after all
is to be the master and not the slave of both
mind and body, and that is best done by giving
both free rein within certain limits which, az
the old sages were universally agreed, each
man must discover for himself. Happy are
the words OF Addison and happily quoted: "A
continual anxiety for life vtiates all the relishes
OF 1t and casts gloom over the whole face OF
nature, as il is impossible that we should talks
delight in anything that we are every moment
afraid Of losing" One of the best methods of
avoiding that pitiful anxiety-that blood
thirsty clinging to life which Is, after all. per-
haps, not confined to the English middle class
is to learn within what limits we may safely in
dulee our desire for change, and then freely
indulge it within them.

HOARD STIRS UP THE CLERGY,
Wisconsin's Joking Governor Lectures
the Preachers in Dead Earnest.

Gov. Hoard of Wisconsin stirred ND the
clergy at Monona Lake assembly few DAYS
ago by aiming his address directly at them.
Among other things he said:
II recognize in the pulpit one of the great
forces OF progressive civilization, yet it is a
force which is moved upon as much as it
moves, and in one sense this is the secret Of its
success. 1t is one of the mouthpieces Of pub
lie conviction. It will shrink and wither like
plucked branch whenever it ceases to stand by
the people. Hence strong pulpit must in
the best sense, be a popular pulpit. 1t is
preachers duty to reach out after the hearts
OF the people. He Is a narrow and withered
specimen who considers himself only as par
nsan OF church or creed to promote church
growth and not public growth. He may help
the church but not the people.
I'VE greatly need a larger infusion Of the
spirit OF citizenship among our clergy as a
class. Any system Of religion must be met by
intelligence in the masses If it be kept pure and
wholesome, for, like all human agencies, il is
bound to take color from its surroundings
Religion among the plantation negroes Of
LOUISIANA today Is much pagan as il is
Christian; mere blind worship will never cor
rect this The growth of knowledge and the
expansion of reason alone can do il. The
growth of justice in the hearts of people has
taught the church many useful lessons aud has
shown II where 1t has made many grievous
mistakes.
For that reason am not believer in that
same divine idea Of clergy, pulpit or church
which seems in all ages to have found lodg-
ment IN the minds of 30 many. The preacher
Is needed today Just as much and more than
ever II he will only, like his Master, seek his
field. To the poor and ignorant Christ came
irst Today they are served last It will do
the preacher a world Of good to broaden his
understanding of human nature in this respect,
as did his Master. Too much is the simplicity
OF the Gospel covered up with the purple Of
ambition. Pride of intellectual display on the
part OF the pulpit and aristocratic exclusive
ness on the part Of the congregation cause men
OF the world to ask in all honesty Is this the
religion founded by Jesus Christi"

EDITORS HERALD-I am q soiourner
here for the winter only. Since coming
to Los Angeles 1 have been a constant
reader of your excellent paper. Among
the things in it that have interested me
was the controversy that occurred in the
City Council in regard to the appoint
ment of a Health Officer for the city.
While in physician's Office, Saturday,
my attention was called to the fact that
the City Central Committee of the Re-
publican party had recommended certain
persons for certain places under the new
city Charter. Among others it named
Drs. M. and @. as members Of the Board
of Health. Then it named DIR. M. as
Health Officer and DR.. @. as Police Sur
geon. l am informed that Drs. M. and
G. occupy the same Office on Spring
street, and the principal "pull' that they
have is that having much leisure time
during the late election, they put in con-
siderable work. II this is all true, steps
should be taken to prevent such a COM

CANADA AND THE UNION.
a Practical View of the Question
by a Canadian.

EDITORS Doubtless a unior
OF the United States and Canada would
be benefit to both countries. Itwould,
at stroke double the territorial domain
of the Union, for Canada is as large ter
ritorially as the United States, if we
leave Alaska out of the account. 1t
would add, what the Union needs, more
extensive fishing grounds and wheat
lands.
The benefit to Canada, especially to
the provinces, would be equally great
Nova Scotia is rich in gold, iron and
coal mines. These under American rule
would be more fully developed.
American capital would pour into
the provinces by the sea and
develop manufactures and open
up industries now struggling or
otherwise. Language, race and position
point to union some time in the future.
The next question is, how can it be
effected. History informs us of a certain
royal marriage where the bride was
forced to marry her lover(N. A King
remarked that he had no objection to the
marriage, but che hated the manner OF
wooing."
NOW5 IL JOudtnan Is C0uftlng one OF
fairest OF John Bulls daughters, his best
method is to adopt the orthodox manner
OF wooing. 1t must, if made at all, be a
love match. A union without the sup
port of public opinion would not be ad.
vantageous to either country.
The Canadians are patriotic and the
majority are intensely loyal to the British
flag.
To an intelligent observer 1t is clear
that many years must elapse before
Canada and the United States are one.
The union must come about by degrees.
The Canadians must first of all be made
to know, in some way or other, that
union with this country will be a benefit
to them. Once this is made clear, the
road will become easier. Reciprocity
must be the first step. The friction
caused by the late fishery trouble has
done the cause no good. All such vexa-
tious questions postpone the day of
union. The American Government
being the greater power, must make the
advances to her weaker sister.
