 Cannot Maintain Action.
 Judge Platt in the Circuit court of the United States has dismissed the bill of complaint in the suit of the Trumbull Electric Manufacturing Company of Plainville against the Connecticut Manufacturing Company of Bantam. The plaintiff alleged an in connection with electrical switches and cut-outs. Judge Platt wrote a long memorandum in deciding the case in which he says: "The gist is this: There is the gravest doubt whether there is any invention in the patent, but granting that there is invention, it is so plain that he who runs may read the fact: That other people had the thought before the patentee had it. If they look at the matter as I do, it is not strange that they did not con- sider it worth the trouble and expense of asking for a patent

CURES REMOVE DOUBT
ABOUT ECZEMA CURE
Read What Your Druggist
Says About Oil of Win
tergreen Compound.

Druggist l.. l.. Elgin submits the
following to the readers of the Ken
tuckian:
For several years we have an
nounced, with our recommendation
that we had found a positive cure
for eczema; a simple skin wash, oil
of wintergreen compounded with
other healing ingredients.
Yet we know there are people
right in this town who have eczema,
and still have never tried this rene
dy.
We have, therefore. arranged with
the ID. ID. Laboratories of Chicago
for a special offer of a trial bottle
at 25 cents instead of the $1.O0 bot
tie as regularly sold.
We offer this trial bottle with our
recommendation and assurance that
just as soon as the patient washes
his itching skin, this mild liquid will
take the itch away instantly. l.. L.

after he. came to see things differently

The Mutton Birds.

Large poisonous snakes and mutton
birds, otherwise known as antarctic
sooty petrels, fraternize in the Fur
neaux island rookeries, northeast of
Tasmania, according to Consul Baker
of Hobart, who investigated the hab-
Its Of the birds.
Mutton bird hunters in reaching In
to the nests frequently lay hold Of
snakes instead of birds. Capt. Film
ders of the British royal navy report
Cd that flock of mutton birds he
once saw was 40 miles In length.
Even the lighthouse at Goose island,
in the Furneaux islands, has to be pro-
tected from the birds by iron screen
work and frequently hundreds of birds
are killed. The birds arrive In enor-
nous numbers at the rookeries every
year, about September 20.
After the eggs have been laid the
male and female bird takes turns at
Matching, each when relieved securing
the country all day in quest Of food.
