NOTICETOINyENTOKS

There was never q slime IN the
history of our country when the
demand for inventions and I'M
provements IN the art and sciences
generally was so great as now. The
convenlences of mankind in the
factory and workshop, the hcuse-
hold. on the farm, and in official
life. rsqulreco ntlnual accesslons to
the appurtenances and implements
of each in order to save labor, time
and expense. The political change
IN the administration of government
does not affect the progress of the
American inventor, who being on
the alert, and ready to perceive the
existing deficiencies, does not per.
nit the affairs of government to
deter him from quickly concerning
the remedy to overcome existing
discrepancies. Too great care can
not be exercised IN choosing a
competent and sklllful attorney to
prepare and prosecute an applica-
ton for patent. Valuable interests
have been lost and DESTROYED IN
innumerab,e instances BY the en-
ployment of incompetent counsel
and especially ls this advice apple
cable to those who adobt the "No
patent, no paw" system. Inventors
who entrsst their business to this
class of attorneys do so at lmmi.
nent risk. as the breadth and
strength Of the patent is never
consldered..ln view Of a quick en-.
deavcr to get an allowance and

crhe Lives Of stage People Are Full

The janitor has an important bearing
on the actors condition, which finds its
expression in his playing and possibly
on his nervous organization. He sup.
plies the house and, In most cases fur
nishes quarters for the actor such as
no se~lf-respecting slave owner would
in the old days have condemned a slave
TO occupy.
For the public nothing is too good.
FOr the actor, on the other hand, any
thing is good enough. Instead of silken
draperies, he finds only a tattered cur
tain at the window, if, indeed, he find
a curtain at all, or even q window
which 1t might cover.
Instead of soft comfortable chairs,
n wooden chair, none too clean, or a
chair minus a back, will be the only
seat, and not infrequently, if he wishes
to sit down, he must do so on his trunk.
Instead of d~elicately tinted walls, he
will find dirty ones which have not
been treated even to q coat Of white,
wash for years. While in the auditor
UNI a soft carpet covers the floor, in
the actors room a carpet rarely ex.
lists, or. If by chance there be some
thing which once was a carpet, it is so
dirty that it would be better away, ac-
cording to the Forum. The washing
appliances of the actors room, if they
are found at all, usually consist of a
small basin with a tap of running wa
ter.
Most people would expect that, as
the winter is the theatrical season and
the paints used by the actors are made
with grease, hot water would be at
hand. But this is rarely the case, and
in many instances running water in
the dressing-rooms is unknown. It is
not uncommon for actors to refrain
from using the basins, preferring to
remove the makeup" as well as posi-
bic with vaseline, and to wait until
the hotel is reached to complete this
portion of the toilet. Tin basins and
buckets are not the worst that / have
seen ION the road" for once the water
was in dirty, battered, cid lard-tins
and basins had to be bought by the
manager.

Rice Cultivation i'm Madagascar.

Tho cultivation of rice in Madagascar
is highly developed in the interior of
the island, but much less along the
coast, where the lazy, careless natives
find the land more fertile and the TEN,
pcrature more favorable. In some
places, as in the neighborhood of Ia
nanarive, immense marshes, subject to
annual foundations and the source of
malignant fevers, have been transferred
into rice fields. In the mountainous
parts the rice fields are in terraces on
the slopes of the mountains and the
hills or i'll the high valleys. The water
coming upon the high ones, passes sue
c~essivcly to each level. There are some
remarkable works of this kind, and one
often sees these tiers of rice fields
raised to the very summit of the high
mountains, where the water is conduct
ed by means of little canals running at
the flank of the declivities and bringing
the water frequently several kilOmetcrs.
