The Value of a Trade-Mark.

trademark is usually some one par. ticular mark on goods to show their origin, but, as a matter of fact, any new, original quality, feature or characteristic of an ar ticle of manufacture, if widely made known through advertising, become valuable as a trademark, and is protected by the courts, so that one article may have many trade marks" that belong to it alone. Thus for example, in the case of Cascarets, Candy pression ''Candy Cathartic,' the peculiar shape. and color of box, the octagonal tab let, and the letters "C C. C." on each tab let, all are expressive trade marks" of that popular medicine, because they indicate their genuineness, distinguish them from limitations and have become universally known to the people.

 politan Street Railway Case.

New York, April s.-At the hearing In the proceedings brought by William Il. Amory against President Vreeland of the Metropolitan Street Railway company to compel MT. Vreeland to show cause why action should not begin against him for alleged criminal libel, Amory testified that Talbot J.

Asked if he had told CuRning- ham and Harding on January 30 that he had preferred charges with the district attorney, he replied: "I think something was said about that"
 He might, he said, have mentioned his intention to apply for a receiver for the company

HE following is an extract from the
 annual report of Mrs. Spencer, the president of the Mercy Home board:
 The family has averaged a few more than last year, and not quite the same proportion More babies have been cared for than ever before. Oh! the poor piti- ful little babies that come to the Mercy Home Can anything in this world be more pathetic than these helpless little waifs? We give them care and kindness for a longer or shorter period, place them in permanent homes whenever pos sble, while we wonder and speculate on the conditions--on the law that makes the innocent suffer instead of the guilty and on the absolute lack of moral respon- sibility among the lower and poorer classes.
 According to statistics of institutions in this and other cities. several of which penses per capita are still at the mini mum, and have not seen In any place healthier, happier children.
 The older girls and women who assist in the work have little recreation. I feel that we are more remiss in this than al- most anything else.
 Continuous, monotonous work is not especially conducive to improvement in either manners or morals. We incline too much to the idea that the adults are sim ply to serve the children instead of being themselves our wards. A better spirit will prevail, more contentment and less gossip, when we provide regular enter tainment for the adults.
 Several times during the year the man. agers have been embarrassed and the matron very much annoyed by absolute parents, whose children have been placed in the home by city officials. The home Is not penal institutions It's office is not to arrest nor confine children, but simply to protect them, and save them from degrading and corrupting influences. IT we are to do this, however, we must our selves be protected by law. To repeat some of the experiences of the past year would be idle and senseless
 As our charter provides for our guard ianship of children through the courts, l think this may be adjusted by an under standing with the chief of police and the judge of probate
 The gifts and donations from individu- ais. societies and churches during the year, particularly at the holiday season. and in response to the Thanksgiving ap- peal have been very generous and lxind and greatly appreciated. We tried to send personal letters of thanks for each but lest some were overlooked, we again thank every one who has remembered the home in any way.
 From these contributions 1t Is always necessary to make provisions for the long
