Aa<vSlous Changes Wrought by Invent.
 ors in Half . Century. @s
 One need not be very old to have 6 distinct recollection of his daily life, its conditions and environments. fifty yeas 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 manufactures and the indus trial arts was just beginning. It tvirt- ually began with the patent system the creation of the patent off1ce--and' 1t has actually kept pace with the de- velopment of tho system, so that this magnificent progress stands as the in- disputable results 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 planing-mills; no shops for the manufacture of doors, sashes or blinds. All the work of the builder, including carpenters and joiners' work. was done by hand. The car PentsI, if good one. got one dollar c day. Coal was consumed but by few families even 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 daugh- ters, with little help from the fulling- mill that was generally near the grist- mill of the neighborhood- The railroad and telegraph had not yet added their powers to the forces of civilization. This year, 1889, is no moro like 1889 than the hand-loom is like the cotton factory. Better fifty years of Europe 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 hopeless pessimistic soul. the constitutional and incurable grumbler, that does not recognize the blessings that have come with the march of invention. For all those, let 1 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. Age.
