Product of Process Patented Is Not
Protected; Held Not an Infringement

Circuit Court Of Appeals for the
Second circuit in a suit for infringe

case the evidence showed that the
defendant employed the alleged in

quent to the granting of the patent
he did not employ the process but
merely sold the products which had
been made by the process prior to
the granting of the patent. The
court stated: "a mere sale Of the
product of the process does not con-
stitute an infringement of a process
patent. -
There has been considerable agi-
tation by inventors from time to
time to amend the patent law so as
to permit the owner of process
patent to proceed directly against
the seller of the product Of the proc

owner of a process patent has no

The sale Of the product Of pat
ented process does not infringe
patent for the process, says the Sci
entific American. The United States
patent statute provides that any per-
son "who has invented or discov-
cred any new and useful art. ma
chine, manufacture or composition
of matter may obtain a patent
therefor. The word art as used
in the patent statute has been inter-
preted as synonymous with proc
ess" or method and means an
act or a series of acts performed
upon given subject matter to
state.
The question frequently arises
transform or reduce it to different
whether the owner of process pat
ent can bring suit for patent in
fringement against one who sells
product which was made by proc
ess infringing the process patent.
It is well established, however, that
the mere sale of the product Of a
patented process does not infringe
the patent for the process. This

wouldn't mind if you had a day or
So longer at home, would you?
She smiled delightedly.
NO. certainly wouldn't mind"
she said.
II envy you!" he said, looking at
her like little hungry boy. You've
got folks. and one likes to have
folks on Thanksgiving day. A holi-
day doesn't mean a thing when you
haven't anybody to share it with"
"Oh." said Margaret. with trou-

you get through, and come back to
spend Thanksgiving with us? know
Grandmother and Grandfather
would be delighted to have you. and
I'd like so much to have them know
you"
Say! That would be great!" said
Greg, grinning delightedly. But
perhaps it would upset them terri
bly, to have a stranger coming un-
announced"
NO." said Margaret. "it wouldn't
upset them"
That's great! Now I'm going out
on few errands. Is there anything
/ can get for you? Or would you go
along?"
NO." she said firmly. "I'n stay
and get ready"
But she was happy as she went
about her small preparations. and
crept into bed at midnight so excited
she could hardly sleep. She was
going home tomorrow!
It was still dark the next morn
ing at five o'clock when Greg parked
his car in front of the house and
opened the front door with his latch
key. But he found Margaret stand
ing in the hall hated and cloaked,
her little shabby suitcase on the
floor by her side and Mrs. Harris
just coming from the dining room
with a neat box in one hand and
thermos bottle in the other.
IT'S just a few chicken sand
wiches and a cup of coffee" she
said as she extended the two to
Greg.
You're not sick, are you. Miss

And it would be such fun to walk in

By the way, Mrs. Harris" he
said with boyish grin. could you
take an extra boarder for dinner to-
night? I've got some work want to
do here in the Office this evening
and a man is coming here about
eight o'clock to see me. don't

II certainly cant" said Mrs. Har-
ris in pleased dignity. We're hav-
ing a beefsteak and there'll be plen-

That sounds good" said Greg
with another grin. and went back
70 his book.
Margaret in the other room
paused in her work and wondered.
AT dinner he was just like merry
boy. asking for more fried potatoes
and string-beans, praising every
thing on the table, saying a great
deal about the strawberry jam
which he declared was just like his
mothers. Mrs. Harris was i'm
uensely pleased.

Strange Facts
! Cavalry Captured !
Q Dutch Fleet
\ FEW men on horseback once

"A conquered the Dutch fleet.
This happened during the cold
winter of 1794-95. In France there
had been a revolution and the
king, Louis XIV, was executed.
The French, already at war with
Austria, now found themselves
forced to fight England, Holland
and Spain.
Most of the fighting took place
in what is now Belgium. The
Dutch were protected until the
winter of 1794-95. Then the French
generals drove the Austrians
across the Rhine, the English sol
diers under the duke of York en-
barked for home. The army of
the French general Pichegru
crossed frozen rivers, a country
bare of supplies, densely inter-
sected with dykes to conquer
Utrecht and finally Amsterdam.
North of Amsterdam is the long
thumb-lile peninsula of North
Holland and that great inland sea,
the Zuider zee. Between the is
lands and the tip of North Holland
the Dutch fleet had anchored for
the winter. The winter of 1794-95
the fleet was frozen in at Texel.
Shortly after Christmas 1894 a
small troop of Pichegru's cavalry
rode out across the frozen waters.
A handful of hussars surrounded
the battleships. The Dutch fleet,
though well-armed, surrendered
to few Frenchmen on horseback.

So Margaret worked demurely
through Saturday. shepherded her
thoughts ON Sunday. and went back
again to her work Monday morning
quite rested and refreshed.
Greg breezed in near noon. He
sat at his desk few minutes and
read his mail. dictated letter or
two in his brief direct style. asked
a few questions about some books
ne had ordered that hadn't arrived.
then picked up his hat and over
coat to go out again. and Margaret
went back to her typewriter.
BY the way" he said, stepping
TO her doorway. I've got to be
away for few days this week. I'm
going up to Vermont on business.
Just where does your family live? /
was wondering if you wouldn't like
to drive up with me and spend
Thanksgiving. or maybe Saturday If
couldn't get through sooner"
Il know l can't go. Of course.
There are all those circulars to be
got off at once! know mustn't al
low you to do it. But it's just heav-
anly of you to think of it. and, oh.
you don't know how much l wish it
were possible.
Greg blinked at her perplexedly
Tor a minute.
He wasn't just sure what was
Margaret's reason for demurring.
Probably she thought it wasn't
proper or something. Maybe she
still didn't quite trust him. But if
she wanted to go as much as that
she was going if he had to upset
heaven and earth to bring it about.
Just where is your home town."
he began with a polite air. Here.
I've a road map somewhere in my
drawer!"
Come here and let's see how
near I'm going to it," he said. flip
ping the map out on the desk and
purposely avoiding Margaret's eyes.
He wasn't at all sure she would
come. He might have to look up
that home town by himself.
But she came, eagerly, surrepti-
tiously mopping away her tears with
a little inadequate handkerchief.
Greg took in the situation at a
glance and selected city at ran
dom an inch or so above the spot
to which Margaret was pointing.
ITS not so far from Rutland,
then. is it?"
About forty miles away" said
Margaret, unsuspecting.

said. because that's where I'm 60

age and I figured we could get there
in one day. perhaps before dark if

Grandmother has had to give up
raising turkeys. She wasn't strong
enough to look after them right"

hamper with a lot Of stuff that the
man said goes with it,

Greg. II got to thinking maybe
you would think was presumptu-
ouS!"
But say, wouldn't this be a good
time for those chicken sandwiches?
/ believe I'm hungry"
Margaret produced the box and
the thermos bottle and they had a
merry time at the side Of the road.
They stopped for lunch early in the
afternoon and Greg made her take
a rest on the couch in the empty
parlor of a country hotel while he
went to a garage to have the car
looked over.
They began to feel as if they had
known one another for long time.
They had come into Vermont now
and the mountains lowered about
them.
AS they drew near Crystal Lake
Greg was watching the girl by his
side. Her eyes were starry with ex-
citement, her cheeks were flushed,
her lips were parted with her eager
ness.
There! Now you can see the post
office. There's somebody just COM
ing out. Oh, why, that's Aunt Car
rie Pettibone!"
Aunt Carrie Pettibone!" said
Greg with a grin. How are you,
Aunt Carrie!" he called out with a
low bow as the car swept on by.
Margaret was convulsed with
laughter.
Now, she won't sleep all night
trying to think out who you are!
But here. this is our turn"
And then even while they watched
the old house grow larger to their
approach, till every old-fashioned
small-paned window was visible,
light sparkled out in one window.
GRANDMOTHER has come out on
the Step!" she cried. 'She has seen
the car and she is watching!"
Then they rounded the curve in
the road, came up to the level on
which the house was built and the
car stopped.
Margaret was in her grandmoth-
er's arms. Greg stood behind by
the car and waited, his hat lifted.
Grandfather came back from the
woodshed, his milk pail in one hand.
the lantern in the other. He held
the lantern high so that 1t shone in
Greg's face.
Cant help?" he said. I'm fine
at milking!"
His voice brought Margaret back
from her grandmother's embrace to
a sense of her duties as hostess.
"Oh, Grandmother, Grandfather,
she cried, "this is Mr.. Gregory
Sterling, the man l am working for
now. He was coming up this way on
business and offered to bring me
for Thanksgiving!"
Then the old man and his old
wife put on their best smiling dig
nifty and welcomed the young man
cordially.
I'VE are greatly indebted to you'll"
said the old man.
'T shall be grateful to you for
ever for bringing her back to mel"
said the old lady, reaching out her
two hands and taking Gregs in a
warm clasp.
1T was pleasure, l assure you."
said Greg with his incest smile.
And now, I'll just unload the bag
gage and then I'll be getting out Of
your way. 1t isn't right to break up
a family meeting like this with the
presence Of an outsider"
