Suppose that a prior patent Is in
fringed and no way Is seer to avoid
infringement by changing the product
or the process or the machine so as
not to embody the principle Of a pat
ented invention. The simplest way, Of
course, would be to buy the patent. If
the patent cannot be bought, but a
fraction Of the patent can be obtained,
no matter how small a fraction-say
one-tenth of the entire right in the pat
ent-the owner of the one-tenth would
be just as we'll off as the owner of the
nine-tenths. The courts have held that
a patent is not like the capital stock
Of a corporation and that the owner of
more than one-half Of the title to the
patent has no claim upon the owner of
less than one-half. Each Is at liberty
to do with his portion what he pleases
and cannot be made to account to the
other. The owner of one-tenth may
make ten times as much out Of the pat
ent as the owner of nlne-tenths, be-
cause of his greater business ability
or greater capital or for other similar
reasons. and 1t would not be equitable
to make him turn over nine-tenths Of
his profits to the other owner.-Edwin
j. Prindle In Engineering Magazine.

The Chinese LILY.

To raise the Chinese sacred lily in
and all the hard callous at the base of
the bulbs. Do not separate the bulbs,
but take a sharp knife and score the
main bulb as though to quarter 1t, but
do not cut more than a quarter of
an inch deep. Cut the offshoot also.
This wastes the bulb, but develops the
foliage growth. Arrange the bulbs in
a glass bowl, steadying them with
pebbles, bits of marble and shells; also
put in broken charcoal to keep the wa
ter sweet. The water may be changed
once or twice before they bloom. Place
in a dark cupboard or closet for ten
days until the roots are we'll started.

His Great Nose.

There was a certain exciseman in
Shrewsbury who was very trim and
neat in his attire, but who had a bottle
nose of more than usual size. AS he
passed through the school lane the
boys used to call him "Nosey," and
this made him so angry that he COM
planned to DR.. Butler, who sympathiz-
ed and sent for the head boy, to whom
he gave strict injunctions that the
boys should not say "Nosey" any more.
Next day, however, the exciseman re-
appeared, even more angry than be-
fore. 1t seems that not a boy had said
"Nosey," but that as soon as he was
seen coming the boys ranged them
selves In two lines, through which he
must pass, and all fixed their eyes In
tently upon his ose Again DIR. Butler
summoned the head boy and spoke
more sharply. you have no business"
said he, ito annoy a man who is pass
ing through the school on his lawful
occupation. Don't look at him." But
again the exciseman returned to DR..
Butler, furious with indignation, for
this time, as soon as he was seen.
every boy had covered his face with
his hand until he had gone by.-~Lifs

Light and CoIors.

1t is now the general conclusion Of
scientists that light Is simply the re-
suit of vibrations, or waves. which oc-
cur in a hypothetical substance known
as the ether, a substance supposed to
permeate all space and all objects and
to be c~oextensive with the universe.
According to this theory, when the
ether is caused to vibrate at a certain
rate 1t gives rise to the sensation Of
light in proportion to the rate of vibra-
ton, or, In other words, the wave
length. In this way the various colors
are produced, red having the longest
wave length and violet the shortest
wave length of any Of the ~colors-that
Is, there are more waves or vibrations
in a given time In the case Of violet
than In the case of red light. Briefly,
in relation to this peculiar phenomenon,
the theory Is that colored bodies w
their color to the fact that they exert
a selectlve action on the waves or rays
Of light which fall upon them, allowing
some to pass on and so give the effect
Of color, while others are absorbed or
destroyed.

IN FRANCE,
Parmentier's willy Plan to Kill the
Prejudice Against Them.

The way in which Parmentier Gre
would have done credit to the widest
of willy tradesmen. Nothing would at
first induce the simple minded peas
ants to cultivate the popular tuber.
They would not listen to lectures on
its virtues nor accept seed potatoes
free of cost for planting.
Parmentier therefore decided to get
the better of their prejudice by artifice
and with this object leased as much
land as he could round Paris and plant
ed 1t with potatoes. Just before the
ripening of the crop he posted watch
ers round the fields and issued notices
that all persons stealing potatoes
would be severely punished, the crop
king and mobiles.
Such delicacies. continued the notice,
were too good for ignorant peasants,
who would touch them at their peril.
OF course watch was only kept during
the day, and at night the fields were
robbed right and left by the peasants,
who were curious to taste the strange
vegetable and Jealous that it should be
reserved for their betters.
AS soon as they had tasted the sue
culent tubers the pilferers were only
too anxious to plant as many as they
could possibly purchase, the willy Par
mentier's scheme thus succeeding be-
yond the most ex~travagant anticipa-
tons.
