Up the road came a glistening

a white flannel suit. As the Mathe-

the driver a faint shadow crossed his

provided also n seal for the Office, and
required that the patent should issue
under that seal, and be signed by the
secretary OF state and countersigned
by the commissioner.
The first patent issued under this
law was To Hon. John. Bugglcs. for To-

Henry l.. Ellsworth was appointed
the first commissioner under this law

Every man has more or less inventive
instinct, and there arc thousands OF
attorneys throughout the land who
devote their time and attention to the
study of patent law, and to the inter
csts of their inventive clients.
And right here. To he practical rnth'
er than historical and discursiyc, let II
be known that no man, he he attorney
or claim agent, can secure n patent FOL
anybody by the use Of money to infiu'
cnce n decision. No man should allow
himself to be deceived on that score
Any attorney or claim agent who in
Inmates anything of hat character
should he set down as n fraud. The
commissioners and the assistant com
missioners are always men of higl
character, standing well In their hom'
communities and in this community
The examiners and clerks are honor
able men. Ecuch case receives us care
full consideration asany case In n cour

its merits. Because OF the careful con
sidcration given to each ease there are
necessary delays which are often ex
asperating to the inventors who be

But there's not. The inventor usu
