Deception in Trade Marks.

The supreme court OF the United States has
laid down a rule for the guidance of manufac-
turers and merchants, the close observance of
which will be Of great benefit to the public. 1t
simply amounts to requiring that the article sold
under specific trade mark must approach the
quality and texture the purchaser is led to ex-
peet by the trade mark or other advertisement.
That is, if it is sold as all-wool, it must be so
near all wool that no objection can lie against it
on the ground that it is not what it is repre-
sented to be.
For many years complaint has been made that
deception in varying degree has been practiced
by manufacturers, whose wares have not meas
ured up to the standard or met the claims made
by the announcement 1t is no, enough to set
up in this regard that the purchaser is given a
substantial bargain, that the article he has re-
ceived will prove as serviceable as if it were
exactly as it is represented. The underlying ele
ment Of deception is fatal to the claim Of hon
csty. The principle enunciated by the court is
that contained in the Capper pure fabric bill,
which requires that manufacturers label their
wares according to their contents.
Long ago pure food laws were enacted to
protect against substitution in food products;
contents Of container laws were found necessary
to protect against short weight packages or other
containers, and there is no better reason for al
lowing fraud in the matter of fabrics than there
was in regard to food. 1t is not pleasant
thought that the public must be protected by
law against dishonesty on part of great concerns,
but if the fact exists, the protection ought to be
had without delay.

Ultimatum at Genoa.

4 peculiar. but not unexpected situation has
arisen at Genoa, the outcome OF the action oi
the German and Russian delegates IN signing the
Treaty OF Rapallo. and the reaction OF the French
cabinet to that episode. NJ. Poineare. who has
attained his pre-eminenee in the peculiar politics
OF his country through his unbending attitude
toward Germany. is now nsisient tina, the original
program be put through, regardless OF anything
tina, may have transpircd between Germany aud
Russia. His position appears to be that until
French demands are met, no negotiations be-
tween debtor nations is to be permitted. Here
is weak point in his line.
Germany and Russia are each heavily in
deb,ed to France, as TO other nations, and the
general disposition is to hold them 10 accoun,a-
bii,y TO the utmost. They are capable Of paying
ultimately every penny OF the debt, and should
be required TO make payment to the end.
Whether this is TO preclude agreements between
them may be questioned. 1t is easy to under
stand that France is apprehensivc OF any move
ment that may tend to strengthen either OF her
debtors, particularly when one must be regarded
as an hereditary and implacable enemy, and the
other the proponent OF system of politics the
application Of which already has cost the French
nation severely in blood and treasure. Acknowl-
edging this, the French might console them
selves with the reflection that for the present
they have such sympathetic support throughout
the world that no other nation would dare at
tack the country again.
Nor does it appear that any serious modihca-
ton Of the Treaty OF Versailles would receive
consent from the nations that signed it. The
matter is beyond the control of the Genoa con-
ference. 1t was called in conformity to the
resolution OF Cannes, and is asscnted to by Ger
many and Russia, although the final admission
Of the soviets turns on the report Of the commit
tees that now are in consultation with ihe
Tchitcherin group as to what may or may not
be done with and for Russia
To beak up the Genoa conference at this
time would be little short OF calamitous for
France. Such an outcome does not seem to be
likely, although it is uncertain that any material
progress will be made, beyond clearing the way
for another gathering, at which the real economic
problems may be given consideration and posi-
bly, brought to a solution.

BUYS VIQUESNEY
| VAULT PATENTS
Schneider Marble Co. Obtains
Ownership And Control Of
T Modern Ma,lsoleum

Through a deal just completed the
Schneider Marble company, of
Americas, comes into complete con-
troll and ownership of the patents and
al other interests of E. VI. Viques-
ney, local designer, in the Viquesney
Vault Monument said to be the most
modern invention of its kind in ex-
istenee and to hold wonderful posi-
bifities for business development. The
Deal includes transfer of patents,
paraphernalia, designs, cuts, draw
snes and all material pertaining to
the manufacture and sale of the
vault monument.
The vault monument was invented
m designed by Mr.. Viquesney and
letters of patent obtained Feb. II,
1890. 1t is a combination of burial
vault and mausoleum, declared to be
better, stronger, more durable and
more sanitary than the common mau-
sulenm, and less expensive, being
adapted to a small number of crypts
il desired, even as few as one. Sew
eral have been manufactured and
erected by the Schneider Marble COM
pany here, and several other monu-
ment firms also have built them for
Mr. .Viquesney.
Because of business conditions
which set in shortly after Mr.. vi
quesney obtained his patents, the
industry has developed slowly, and
1ster-the manufacture of his Dough-
boy monuments and statuettes caus-
ed Mr.. Viquesney to abandon most of
his other interests for the time, and
as result little has been done in
the way of realizing on the vault
monument industry. 1t is the inten-
tion of the Schneider Marble COM
pany to develop the business gradual
ly, expecting in time to make their
yard here the scene of manufactur-
Ing enterprise much larger than it is
aft present.

lions were taken to make the screen
play true to the type OF the Canadian
Northwest. The company waited III
the vicinity of Truckee, in the noun
tains of California, for several days
for heavy snowfall. A light snow
on the groond wonld have been I'M
convincing. Cabins to duplicate those
described in the book were con-
structed at Bonner Lake and at sew
eral locations hitherto untouched by
the camera.
The dog and bear incidents were
obtained only after painstaking eff
fort. One bear appears throughout
the entire picture as the companion
of Marge 0'Doone and protects her
from harm. It is this bear, Tara,
that has the thrilling fight with a wild
and vicious grizzly. The two bears
were kept separate until the time
for the fight, and neither before had

and their appropriateness to the ac-
