Models With Patents.

n CR1NG its first hundred years OF ex-
istence the United States patent Of
fice would not accept an application for a
mechanical invention unless it was ACCOM-
panied by working model The result
was that when. about quarter of GEN.
fury ago, the number of patents ran up in
the hundreds of thousands. the rooms and
corridors of the building We're so choked
with all manner of models that the BUSH
ness of the Office could with difficulty be
transacted. Accordingly. a new rule was
made, forbidding any one to file model
with his application for patent on an
invention.
One single exception was made to this
rule That was i'm the case of applica-
tons for inventions based on the discov-
cry of perpetual motion. For years the
worlds scientists have held that such a
thing practical perpetual motion was
imposSible-that is. that every machine
had to receive its motive energy from
some outside generative force. and could
not run indefinitely on its innate energy.
The patent Office has followed the scien-
fists, and holds that such a machine Is
impossible. Therefore, it now demands.
with any application for a patent on a
perpetual motion machine. the exhibition
of a model which works satisfactorily to
the officials of the office.
There have been scores of applica lions
for these so-called perpetual motion ma
chimes offered in this Office i'm the last
score of years. said an Official connected
with the mechanical department of the
patent bureau. but We have politely told
each would-be inventor that we demanded
a working model before the application
would be considered.

There was a case on trial in which the
main issue turned upon the length of time
that had elapsed between the happenings
of two certain events-it was important to
get at the exact number of minutes, if
possible
Zone of the witnesses, a business man,
testified that fully ten minutes had
elapsed between the happening of the
events in question. When asked how he
knew, he replied that he was used to
watching time when he saw his clerks
soldering on him, and, hence, was a
good judge Of the lapse of time.
1.-The next witness, a physician, who
was acquainted with the facts. testified
that, in his opinion, fully twelve minutes
had elapsed between the happening of
the events.
..This all seemed pretty conclusive, until
the other side put on a young fellow. an
Irishman, who had also been present
when the events in question took place.
How long a time elapsed between the
time that Mr. x went into the house
and Mr.. y came out?' queried an at

Mot more than two minutes replied
the Irishman. This was disconcerting to
the other side, and Immediately one of
its lawyers arose.

or cigars and cigarettes the Prince of
Wales has received enough in the way of
samples to keep him supplied for a
twelvemonth We're he a heavy smoker
which he is not. These samples arrive.
as rule, in plain mahogany boxes and
contain twenty-five or fifty cigarettes or
cigars. Sometimes the samples arrive in
heavy gold Or silver boxes, which are
promptly returned to the sender with an
intimation that the prince never retains
sample Of SO valuable character.
VI course, a tradesman who sends the
prince a really valuable article by way
or sample knows quite well that If it is
retained he will be paid for it, and will
be able to advertise the fact that he ia
patronized by his royal highness. AS a
matter of fact, tradesmen who are at all
familiar with the methods of obtaining
royal custom do not send sample goods
of very great value. as the receipt of them
rauses good deal of trouble to the
princes secretary or valet, who has to
see that they are returned.
Some OF the circulars and trade letters
received recently by his royal highness
are of most extraordinary character.

one of these modern tailoring firms the
custom of the prince may rest quite as
sured that If he so desire he can be
faultlessly dressed free of charge for the
rest of his life.
To a tailor the custom of the prince is
of special Importance. for it will bring
him the custom of every young sprig of
the aristOcracy and plutocracy who will
want to be dressed by the tailOrs who

Not only are the keenest efforts being
made to secure the patronage and GUS
tom of the prince. but efforts are also be-

the future Princess of Wales, even though
her identity Is not known: Several of the
leading firms of modistes in Paris have
already approached those ladies about
the court, daughters Of great families,
who are most likely to have influence in
this direction. In the course of the next
four or five years, If the prince lives,
there is practically certain to be a Prin-
cess of Wales. Whoever she turns out to
be she will require wedding trousseau.
and the making of that trousseau will
cost at least $4,000. The trousseau of
the present queen cost $55,OOO and of
Queen Alexandra $4,000.
