tress and need over the way, and the
thought that someone is cold and
hungry is so unusual with us that it
casts shadow that will not down.

Notice to Inventors.

There was never a time In the his
tory Of our country when the demand
for inventions and improvements in
the arts and sciences generally was so
great as now. The conyeniences of
mankind in the factory and workshop
the household, ond the farm and in
official life, require continual access
ions to the appurtenances and imple-
ments of each in order to save labor,
time and expense. The political
change in the administration of gov
eminent does not affect the progress
Of the American inventor, who being
on the alert, and ready to perceive the
existing deficiencies, does not permit
the affairs Of government to deter him
from quickly conceiying the remedy
to oveecome the existing discrepan-
cies- Too great care cannot be exer-
cised in choosing competent attor-
ney to PREFACE and prosecute an APP
plIcation for patent. Valuable inter
ests have been lost and destroyed in
innumerable instances by employment
incompetent counsel, and especially
is this advice applicable to those who
adopt the "No patent, no pay system"
Inventors who intrust their business
to this class Of attorneys do so at i'm
minent risk, as the breadth and
strength Of the patent is never con-
sidered in view of a quick erdeavor
to get an allowance and obtain the
fee then due. The Press CLAIMS Co,
John Wedderburn, general manager,
618 + street, N. W., Washington, D.
G., representing a large number Of
important daily and weekly papers, as
well as general periodicals, was insti-
tuted to protect its patrons from the
the unsafe methods heretofore en-
ployed in this line OF business. The
said company is prepared to take
charge Of all patent business entrust-
ed to it for reasonable fees, and pre-
pares and prosccutes applications gen
orally, including marks, labels, copy
rights, interferences, infrirgements,
validity reports, and gives special at
tention to rejected cases. 1t is also
prepared to enter into competition
with any firm in securing foreign
