NOTICE TO INVENTORS.

There was never time in the history
of our country when the demand for in
ventiOns and i'm orOvements in the arts
and sciences ger orally was SO great As
now. The cow .niences OF manking in
the factory and Workshop, the house
hold, on the farm, AMI in official life, re-
Quire continual occasions to the appur-
tenances and i'm Elements of each in Or
der to save lablr, time and expense.
The political change in the administra-
ton of gov. rnmant does not affect the
progressO of the American inventor, who
being on the alert, and ready to pre-
ceive the existing deficiencies, does not
permit the affairs Of government to de-
ter him from quickly cOnceiving the
remedy to overcome existing discrep-
ancies. Too great care can not be ex-
ercised in choosing q competent and
skillful attorney to prepare and prose-
cute an application for patent. Valua-
BILE interests have been lost and destroy
ed in innumerable instances by the en-
plOyment of Incompetent counsel, and
especially is this advice applicable to
those who adopt the mo patent no pay"
system. Inventors who entrust their
business to this class of attorneys do so
at imminent risk, as the breadth and
strength of the patent is never cOnsid-
cred in view of quick endeavor to get
an allowance and obtain the fee then
due. THE PRESS CLAIMS COMPANY,
