An Improved Hair Dye.
I, AUGUSTE LUMIÈRE, of 19 Rue St. Victor, Lyon-Monplaisir, France,
Chemist, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
My invention relates to the manufacture of hair dye from diamidophenol, based
on the fact that by its oxidation an insoluble brown colouring matter of great
stability is produced.
In order to produce such colouring matter on hair I prepare a solution containing
about 10 grammes of hydrochlorate of diamidophenol, 15 grammes of sodium
sulphite dissolved in 90 grammes of water, and 10 grammes of alcohol. The hair
is treated with this solution by means of a comb or brush, and, on being allowed to
dry, the diamidophenol oxidises in the course of a few seconds thus dyeing the
hair. The small quantity of sodium sulphite which remains in the hair after the
oxidation of the diamidophenol, is removed by washing.
Sodium sulphite is used in the above solution in order to prevent the too rapid
oxidation of the diamidophenol, and alcohol is added for the purpose of removing
grease and cleansing the hair.
The above mentioned solution may be coloured or scented as may be required.
Various shades are obtained according to the concentration of the diamidophenol
solution; thus a weak solution gives auburn, whilst a concentrated solution gives
& black.
Other salts of diamidophenol might be used but I have found the hydrochlorate
the most suitable.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
The improved hair dye, composed of a salt of diamidophenol in combination with
other substances, substantially as herein described.

An Improvement in the Manufacture of Stockings, Socks, and
Underclothing.
I, ARTHUR MICHAELIS of 22 Spenerstrasse, Berlin, N.W. Merchant, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be
performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:
At present, to retain stockings and socks in the proper position on the legs
elastic garters or stocking holders have to be used. The drawback in connection
with the use of garters is that they are apt to be lost, and with stocking holders
that they are apt to tear the stockings and to impede the free movement of
the legs.
Both the garters and stocking holders are separate from the stockings or socks.
The object of this invention is to weave the stockings and socks at the proper
part with elastic threads which while forming au integral part of the article serve
the purpose of garters.
And in order that my said invention may be properly understood I have hereunto
appended an explanatory sheet of drawings, whereon,
Figs. 1, 2 and 3'show stockings A baving elastic garters a woven or knitted into
their texture.
When making the stockings, as soon as the part is reached where it is desired
to have the elastic garter, elastic threads are substituted for the usual worsted,
cotton or silk threads and are woven or knitted into the texture of the article.
When the desired width of garter has been made the usual threads are again
used until the article is finished.
If desired the elastic part or garter may be a few inches below the top of the
stocking as at Fig. 1, or at the very top as at Fig. 2 or at both places as at Fig. 3.
If desired the elastic garter may be made in the legs of stockings which later on
have feet knitted to them.
Elastic bands or stripes may, in the same manner, be made in any kind of
underclothing such as drawers and semmets. The elastic bands in the legs or
sleeves of the article keep it in place. By making the sleeves of semmets with
elastic bands they are prevented from protruding as at present.
The best material to use in producing the elastic bands or garters is india-
rubber thread which is covered or spun over with the material used for the rest of
the garment.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
cousider novel, and desire to claim is :-
Substituting, during the manufacture of stockings, socks, and underclothing,
india-rubber threads in place of the usual woollen, cotton, or silk, or other threads,
so as to produce at certain parts of the article one or more elastic bands,
substantially as and for the purpose hereinbefore set forth.

and between the edge of the rings and the bottom of the socket there is a space
formed, which may be filled in with liquid cement or any suitable ingredients.
In order to more fully illustrate our improvements we will refer to the
accompanying sheet of drawings illustrative thereof, where A is the socket end of
an earthenware pipe and B the spigot end of an adjoining pipe. In jointing these
pipes according to our invention we attach rings C and D to the socket and spigot
respectively, such rings being made of "Stanford's or other suitable composition,
care being taken to leave a space E between the said rings and the bottom of the
socket, which space E is afterwards filled in with liquid cement or any suitable
ingredient, the said cement being inserted in the aperture or opening F.

Pardubice, Bohemia in the Empire of Austria, do hereby declare the nature of
our said invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement:
The object of our invention is to manufacture an improved, fluid for preventing

2 "
1 part
80 parts
1 part
In using our improved fluid, one part of the fluid should be added to every two
hundred parts of the water in the boiler; but the proportion of fluid to water will
become less after the first application, when the internal surface of the boiler
becomes coated with a form of metallic soap, which prevents the adhesion of
deposit.
If the incrustation is already formed on the boiler walls, the addition of our
improved fluid will have the effect of loosening and detaching the deposit after
which the boiler may be cleaned in the usual manner.
We do not bind ourselves to the exact proportions before mentioned as they may
be varied to suit the different constitutions of the water used in the boiler.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is :-
:-
1. The Improved Fluid for Preventing and Removing Incrustation in Boilers,
composed of calcined soda, olive oil, oil soot, lime water and granulated zinc and
its application to the water of boilers substantially as herein before described.
.
2. The combination of materials together constituting our invention of an
Improved Fluid for Preventing and Removing Incrustation in Boilers, substantially

Curling Tongs Holder.
I GUSTAV KÜRSCHNER of Schmalkalden, Prussia, Merchant, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be
performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:-
This invention relates to a Curling Tongs Holder made of metal and adapted to
be secured to the top of a lamp chimney in such a manner that the two irons of the
curling tongs lie above the flame of the lamp and are thereby heated.
In the accompanying drawings
Figure 1 is a side elevation shewing part of a lamp chimney with the device
fitted thereon and the tongs in the holder, and Figures 1ª and 1ª are front and
rear elevations of the device.
Figures 2 and 24 shew side and front elevations of a modification.
Figures 3, 34 and 3" shew side front and rear elevations of another modification
made of wire.
Referring to Figures 1, 1A and 1º, A is a metal plate having a circular aperture
to receive the ends of the tongs (provided with two or more flexible projections or
tongues which are so bent as to form a spring clip whereby the device is secured on
the upper end of the lamp chimney as shewn in Figure 1. At right angles to the
plate A is secured a frame B open on all four sides and terminating at the rear in
a concave plate b. This device when fixed on the chimney of a lamp is used to
support the irons of the curling tongs which will be heated by the flame of the
lamp burning thereunder. The front ends of the irons are introduced into the
circular aperture of the plate A in such a way that the parts of the irons intended
for use lie above the open end of the lamp glass and are kept in this position by the
rear plate b.
In the construction shewn in Figures 2 and 2* the rear plate b is formed with a
downward concavity which serves to support the points of the irons which in this
case are passed completely through the circular aperture in the front plate as shewn
in Figure 2. The construction shewn in Figures 3, 34, and 38 is similar to that in
Figure 1, except that the top part of the frame is dispensed with.
Figures 4, 4, and 48 shew a holder made of wire bent or twisted to shape, the
back being made in the form of a cross, or otherwise shaped so as to form a cradle
in which the irons rest.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
A metal or wire holder consisting of a pierced or open front and a curved or
cradle back connected by an open frame and furnished with a flexible or spring
clip for fastening the device to the upper end of a lamp chimney, for the purpose
of supporting curling tongs to be heated by the flame of the lamp, substantially as
lescribed.
