 Enauirer.-I have an idea concern ing hosiery which l think might prove valuable. Would it be the thing to make model and have it patented, or Is such a thing patentable? If so how must 1 proceed? Must knit a model by hand and submit 1t to the patent office, or would 1 have to get one made by some hosiery concern! If so, how would protect my idea while it Is being done? How much does pa tent cost? If 1t is not to be patented how then? Will l have to get some hosiery concern to make and advertise them, and how could procure ad- dresses of such concerns?
 A. Unfortunately you do not make 1t very clear what your idea" consists of. If it is merely design for hosiery you can get design patent for three and half years for S10; for seven years S15, for fourteen years 80. If it Is something more than a design the cost of patent is S15 when mak- ing the application and S20 payable on its issue. Whether drawings or q model would be preferred by the pa tent office is not to be decided from your question; the commissioner of pa- tents will advise you on this point If you describe the idea to him. A model made by hand, If none Is needed. would serve every purpose. On the payment of fee of $1O to the commissioner of patents one may file in the patent office caveat which will protect his rights until the invention shall have been matured, when the patent may be applied for. You will find advertise ments of hosiery concerns in the maga- zines.
