JUDGE ALIENS ADDRESS.

The discussion of duties regarding pub
lie charities was participated in by num-
Ger of men,. Judge Henry Clay Allen dis
cussed THE County Judge" He said the
local courts must interpret and enforce
the laws affecting the care of all the wards
of the State. This is especially true in
cases of incorrigible children. A delicate
and difficult problem is presented when
some mother comes with her daughter
admitting her own failure to successfully
perform a mothers duty in the rearing and
educating the daughter, and asks the pro-
lection of the State to save her child
from the perils of young womanhood. In
such case the court wants TO know all
he can learn as to character and condi-
ton of all the parties so as TO determine
where the trouble rests and whether con-
ditions may be so improved as TO produce
the normal home conditions. The response
bility of a decision in such a case is very
grave and calls for the exercise of the best
conscience and judgment. Judge Allen also
called attention TO the appointment of
boards under the jurisdiction of the court

not only advisable but imperative for in
ventors of all classes, who have patented
their inventions or registered trademarks
in this country, to have same registered at

adopted. Therefore. we will be pleased to
correspond with patent solicitors in the
United States and to undertake the regis
tration in Mexico of patents and trade
marks of American inventors.
Owing to the special organization of our

who talk the English and Spanish Ian
guages and "A notary's office attached
thereto, we are in position to ofer our
