In a case recently decided by the
United States Supreme Court, cover
ing the trademark laws of the coun-
try, Chief Justice Miller delivered the
opinion, in the course of which he
called attention to several salient
points. Attention was first called to
the early use of the term trademark"
and it's meaning as a distinctive mark
of authenticity, through which the
products of particular manufacturers
or the vendible commodities of certain
merchants may be distinguished from
those of others.
A trademark may consist Of any
symbol or any form Of words, but as
it's office is to point out distinctively
the origin or ownership of the articles
to which 1t is affixed, it follows that
no sign or form of words can be ap-
propriated as valid trademark
which, from the nature Of the fact con-
veyed by its primary meaning others
may employ with equal truth. and
with equal right for the same purpose.
A general rule has been established
to the effect that words that do not
in and of themselves indicate any
thing in the nature Of origin, manu-
facture or ownership, but are merely
descriptive of the place where an
article is manufactured or produced,
cannot be monopolized as trade
mark,

To Ch1oroform n Person.

The only way to render a person
unconscious by the use of chloroform
is in the way practiced by surgeons
in the operating room. And this is
by no means an easy task. There are
several ways Of doing it. The chloro-
form may be dropped on handker-
chief, which is then held over the
face at some little distance, or 1t may
be dropped on q sponge, or it may be
used In one of the innumerable ma
chimes invented for the purpose. But
the vapor must be mixed with air be-
fore 1t is breathed. That Is the rea-
son the handkerchief or the sponge
Is held some inches from the face. AS
q rule, it takes from five to eight
minutes to make the person uncon-
scious, and during this time he gen.
orally struggles very violently.
1t is probable that many OF the
charges OF chloroforming which have
been made are false. Sometimes the
pretended victim asserts that he has
become unconscious Immediately. But
1t has been shown in evidence that the
time necessary to bring about this re-
suit is at least four or five minutes.
Sometimes he says he could not cry
out; yet he describes all the circum-
stances Of the administration minute
ly. Now, the first effect of the chloro-
form is to produce confusion Of the
mind, while, on the other hand, the
patient can cry out almost up to the
last. He becomes mentally confused
before he loses the power of speech.
These few facts are sufficient perhaps
to demonstrate that some charges Of
possible chloroforming are necessarily
untrue.-London Mail.

Sir Henry Poland, British magis-
trate noted for his brilliancy, Is care
less in his dress. Once his family per-
suaded him to go to Poole and order
a fashionably cut suit. To the chagrin
OF the household Sir Henry looked
more outlandish in the new clothes
than in his old ones. His brother-in-
law went to see Poole about it. ut is
not my fault, SIR" the tailor assured
him. Every care was taken. but how
could we fit gentleman who would
insist upon being measured sitting
DOWN." And the only satisfaction
that could be obtained from Sir Harry
Poland himself later on was the dry
comment: "Well, it's my business,
and not yours. 1 like to be comfort

sitting down, and 1 prefer to be meas
ured so."-New York Tribune.

Teac hers Must Teach.

The teacher must teach more, and
know more; he must be living foun-
tain, not stagnant pool. He should
not be a dealer in desicated, second
hand knowledge, mere giver-out and
hearer of lessons. That is the chief
and humiliating difference between
our secondary teachers and those
abroad, who are mostly doctors OF
philosophy, as they should be. If we
could move many university profes
sors to the high school, many high
school teachers to the grammar school
and some grammar school teachers
with at least a sprnkling of college
graduates, in to the kindergarten, II
would do much. In the German and
French school the teacher is the ont
who knows q great deal about his
subject and is nearer to original sour
ces, who tells the great truths of the
sciences almost like stories, and who
does affect the airs and methods of the
university professor. Very many sec.
ondary teachers are masters and au
thorities. Here, most of our universe
ty pedagogy Is q mere device for SC
influencing high-school principals and
teachers as to correlate curricula, il
order to corral in students, and littlt

Easy Como, Easy Go.

The man who creeps along bent over, with
his spinal column feeling in a condition to
snap like pipestem at any minute, would
readily give a great deal to get out OF his
dilemma, and yet this is only the commonest
form by which lumbago seizes on and twi"ss
out of shape the muscles Of the back. This
is commonly known as backache, crick in
the back, but by whatever name it may be
known, and however bad it may be, 10 min
utes' vigorous rubbing with St. Jacobs Oil on
tho afflicted part will drive out the trouble
and completely restore. 1t is thing so easily
caught. it may be wondered at why there is
not more of it, bu. because it is SO easily
cured by st. Jacobs Oil may bc the very rea-

Triumphs OF Modern Astronomy.

Professor Newcomb. the astronomer,
discussing the advance made In that
science during the last century, says
that mankind Is only beginning to
learn something of the truth, and that
the greatest victory of the astrono-
mers in the nineteenth century was the
determination of the exact motion OF
the solar system, which is moving in
space ct the rate of 10000 miles an
hour, but no one can, tell whence II
came or whittier it goeth. Another
important improvement is the applica-
ton of mechanical methods for record
ing astronomical phenomena. An as
tronomer Of a few years ago was COM
PEELED to keep his eyes upon the stars
and sketch inaccurately and imper-
fectly the objects that passed before
his vision. The introduction of auto
matte photography gives him an exact
record of every event among the heav-
emily bodies, although he may see
nothing of it himself.

Fell in Love with a Convict.

Many years ago, when Botany Bay
was q convict settlement, q young
lady, who was q widow of a wealthy
squatter, fell in love with q convict,
whose term of punishment had nearly
expired, and whom she had observed
from time to time toiling with the
chain-gang. So Infatuated was the fail
widow with the criminal in question
that she sent for him directly his dis.
charge was effected, and offered him
her hand and heart, together with the
supervision of her property. A liberal
salary was to accompany the dual po
sition of husband and oyerseer, ant
the lucky man naturally assented tt
the proposition without an instant'l
delay. The marriage proved a highly
successful union, but to the day CT tile
fellows death, he drew his salar.
with unerring regularity, and. to hii
credit be 1t said, he earned every
penny Of it, for he proved an active
and intelligent manager in every re
spect.

The Land of the Gum Chewer.

By far the largest proportion of
chewing gum made is for home con-
sumption. America is the land of the
gum chewer, but the export trade is
growing and the gum habit is invad-
ing Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia
and the South Sea Islands. Only last
month a London journal bewailed the
rise Of the pernicious habit among
Britain's sons and daughters, but the
manufacturers say that the English
trade isn't yet big enough to justify
the lamentation or to be taken seri'
ously.
The increasing use of chewing gum
in England, just at present, is due to
the adoption of the habit by the Eng
lish soldiers in South Africa South
Africa has for years been one of the
best foreign markets for chewing
gum, and probably more of the article
is used in johannesburg than in any
