In Brittany u quaint and very beauti-
full custom Of Christmas giving il still
preserved from very ancient times.
When the country folk go to the mid
night mass, the opening mass Of Christ
mas day, they all carry lanterns to light
them ON their way. Upon their arrival
at the church they give their lanterns
over to the poor old women OF the par
ish. who are gathered in crowd out
side the church awaiting them.
The worshipers enter the sacred build
ing and then attend TO the devotions,
which the church teaches should be Of
especial fervor at this holy season. But
when the mass IL ended and they are
dismissed with the benediction, they
come forth to find the patient old women
awaiting them outside the church bear
ing the lanterns The lanterns are given
back to their owners, and as each takes
his own he exchanges for it piece Of
money. The value Of the piece varies.

Thursday Night.

Never Such a Storm Before as That of
Thursday Night.
CHICAGO, March S.-The storm which
ragged throughout the Middle West on
Thursday night stands unparalleled,
not only for the great extent of terri
tory over which it ranged, but for the
amount of water precipitated. At
Cincinnati, the rainfall reported by the
weather bureau of this city amounted
to ). .3s inches, and floods are reported
from every telegraphic station, from
Pittsburg on the east to Kansas City
on the west, and from the lakes to the
northern boundary of Tennessee. At
Cairo. ILL.,, several buildings were un-
rooted, and one dwelling was blown
down, causing the death of an infant
inmate.
Throughout southern Illinois. Indi-
ana and Ohio the damage to railroad
property, in the form of washouts,
making traffic impossible, and in the
wrecks caused by the softening of tho
roadbeds, is immense.
A not inconsiderable loss to the peo-
pie. as whole, will be the washing
away of bridges and roadways, which
have been built up in the rural dis
tricts at a cost of millions of dollars,
and which in many cases have been
totally destroyed.

IOWA PATENT OFFICE REPORT.

DEs MONIES, Feb. CA. NJ. L. of
meant by a limited degree of iuven-
tion?" ADswer:-This is q common
phrase in patent Office parlance and
the question can be best answered by
giving an example. After using blunt
screws for centuries and gimlets to
bore holes for them III wood, d gimiet
pointed screw was invented and the
labor Of making holes III wood for the
reception of screws was dispensed
with. After using gimlet pointed
screws for half century and cutting
away wood with a roaming tool to-
counterSlnk the head of IL screw the
slot across the conical head was ex-
tended down at the side to produce a
cutting edge so that the rotating screw
would cut away wood and the roaming
tool made unnecessary. Both these
examples show limited degrees of
invention, in view of the fact that so
little change was made III the art as
first represented by a screw having a
blunt end. Such simpl echdngcs were
of limited degree in comparison with
the great improvements made in steam
boats since one of the crnde originals
was destroyed by mob in 1895. But
Notwithstanding the simplicity of the
improvements in screws and the lin
tied degree of invention illustrated
thereby, such improvements are of
vast Importance. A limited degree of
invention. when a new or improved re-
suit is produced thereby. is patentabIe
invention and in many instances
valua bic. Valuable information about
obtaining, valuing and selling patents

Extra Session Makes Appropriations.


Extra Session Makes Appropriations.
WASHINGTON, March S.-The failure
of President Cleveland to sign three
appropriation bills, the sundry civil,
agricultural and Indian, and the ina
bility of Congress to agree upon the
general deficiency bill, will entail
much unexpected work upon the extra
session of the new Congress and pos
sibly may delay, to some extent. tho
enactment of the new tariff law. The
regular appropriations for government
service and public works carried by all
of these bills except the deficiency are
for the fiscal year beginning July l,
so that to repair the failure of the
bills it will be necessary that they be
re-enacted before that time, or that
resolutions be passed continuing for q
stated time the allowances for the cur
rent year.
