An Improvement in Machinery for Sawing Bone Knife Handles and
Scales, and other Articles.
SAMUEL METCALF 10 Canning Street Accrington Mechanic do hereby declare
the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
My invention consists of adapting mechanical appliances for carrying to,
holding in position, & taking from circular saw, articles for the purpose of cutting
them.
I attain this object by having a steel band or band of any other suitable material, -
with projections riveted on the surface of the band at suitable distances apart.
The band is moved by mechanical power to revolve in the same plane as the saw
& regulated by a screw guage in its distance from the saw.
The articles to be cut are placed in front of one of these projections & with the
revolution of the band is carried to the circular saw and cut & carried forward
past the saw.
The bone or other material is held in position against the revolving band &
gauge by a spring roller which presses against the article to be sawn during its
carriage immediately before reaching the circular saw.
My improvement consists in the application of a steel or any suitable band with
projections (as carriers) revoling as before described; & the use of a spring
roller to press the article as it is being carried to the circular saw in the manner
described.

Improvements in Paints or Protective Coverings for Ships' Bottoms and other Structures.

Improvements in Paints or Protective Coverings for Ships' Bottoms
and other Structures.
I, CHARLES HODGSON BIGLAND of 22, Bath Street, in the City of Liverpool,
Paint Manufacturer, 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 is designed to form a good serviceable paint for ships' bottoms,
and is the outcome of many years experimenting by trying patches of several
different paints on the same ship's bottom, and examining them on the return
voyage. At length I have found a paint which appears to thoroughly protect the
bottom both from corrosion, and, what is much more important, from the adhesion
of shell fish and the like. Patches on which it has been tried were found after a
long voyage perfectly clean, while those with many other paints were found
coated with a considerable thickness of shell fish, weed, and the like, or else the
paints have been found almost completely rubbed off, and the iron considerably
corroded.
The paint is formed in the following manner :-
1 part of curare poison.
3 parts of Venice turpentine, and
3 parts of sulphate of manganese, are thoroughly mixed together.
6 parts of carbonate of lime, and
6 parts of belladonna are then mixed with the above and, as body, 24 parts of
ordinary pigment added (preferably say 12 of zinc oxide and 12 of oxide of iron).
These are all boiled together for half an hour in sufficient varnish or oil to make it
liquid and the material is then ready for use.
The curare is used because of the weakening action it appears to have on the
shell fish. The white manganese appears to increase this action very considerably
and at the same time has a useful effect on the turpentine.
The belladonna is a poison and assists the curare to a very great extent.
The Venice turpentine is simply a medium for mixing the paint; any other
medium can be used instead.
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
claim is―
1. The use of curare poison and belladonna in paints for structures exposed to
the action of sea water.
2. A paint consisting of materials substantially as herein described.

An Improved Method of and Means for Advertising, applicable also
to the Sampling of Goods.
1, HORACE TASSIE MARTIN, of the City of Montreal, in the Province of
Quebec, and Dominion of Canada, 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:-
My invention consists in a method of and means for advertising in such a way
that the address of the advertiser or the essential character of the main fabric or
other feature (not necessarily referring to the article carrying the advertisement)
desired to be advertised by the advertiser may be easily torn off and kept for future
reference or use, and is applicable for the sampling of goods.
As an instance of how my invention may be used the accompanying drawing
shows a piece of sanitary paper perforated, as it is at present in the market;
B is a piece of the said toilet paper;
A and C sections of the two adjoining pieces of paper.
O. is the perforation which allows of its easy detachment;
E. F. is the stub advertiser bearing any advertisement and perforated in such a
way that it can be easily detached from the main tissue and preserved in convenient
form for future reference.
The same system is applicable to wrappings of every description, to paper bags,
to boxes either as a wrapper or to cardboard or paper boxes of which a part may
be adapted to be easily detached to fabrics, to textiles and tissues generally.
The particular form of perforation is not necessarily a part of my invention.
I do not claim as my invention the fabric or tissue nor the particular form of
perforation, nor of other modes of detaching into parts of suitable size.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is --
A method of and means for advertising, whereby a convenient portable part
conveying the object of the advertiser (or embodying the essential character of the
main fabric, texture or tissue, or exhibiting any other advertising feature) is easily
detached from the article carrying the said portable part for preservation or
future use, substantially as above described and set forth.

I HENRY WILLIAM HINDS of 20 Queen Street, St. Heliers, Jersey, Channel
Isles, Cabinet Maker, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
My invention of improvements in the frames of turning saws has for its object.
that of making them handier for use and also of enlarging their individual capacity
for work.
In carrying out my invention I substitute a rod acted upon by a screw and nut.
in the place of the old fashioned cord thong or other material acted upon by a
wooden or other strip for the purpose of tightening the said frames up and also in
the place of the now commonly used straight stretcher which acts nearly midway
between the saw itself and the tightening apparatus I construct a stretcher such that
whilst it is attached to the uprights of the frame and held there in like mortice
holes as heretofore also runs in a line with or forms a slight angle to the said
uprights and is carried at the top in a straight or slightly curved line in a position
in close proximity to the aforementioned tightening rod.
By these means I am enabled to manipulate the whole apparatus more readily
when taking out or putting in a saw blade and am enabled also to take in larger
diameters of work owing to the greater distance between the saw blade and the
tightening apparatus.
I make my said stretcher of any suitable material but preferably of malleable iron..

I, RUDOLF COмMICHAU of Magdeburg, Sudenburg in the Empire of Germany,
Engineer, 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 :-
The object of my said invention is to keep the steam distributors and the cylinders
of steam engines well lubricated while the engines are at work, therefore the said
parts must be supplied at intervals with a certain quantity of lubricant according
to requirements.
The inner spaces of said engine parts being,
pressure the said lubricant has to be forced in.

In the accompanying drawings

however, filled with steam under
This may be best and with high
means of a force pump specially
Figs. 2, 3 & 4 shew the lubricator in connection with a force pump, Fig. 2 in
view Fig. 3 partly in view, partly in section and Fig. 4 in plan.
The quantity of lubricant required for one revolution of the shaft w (Fig. 4) is
regulated by adjusting the stroke of the pump piston, the eccentric motion of pin Z
(Fig. 3) which acts upon loop ƒ (Figs. 2 and 3) being adjusted by the fixed screw-
spindle s.
In order to connect the body of the pump alternately with the spaces where the
suction and the pressure take place, the shaft of three-way-cock h (Figs. 1 & 4) is
provided with turning cross K (Figs. 3 & 4).
The latter is moved to and fro by means of discs n n (Fig. 4) which are provided
with pegs g g (Fig. 2). These pegs, when the shaft turns, touch the turning cross
alternately when the piston is at its dead points and thus place the three way cock h
in the positions required for sucking or forcing away the fluid.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion I declare that what I claim is
1. A lubricating apparatus, the piston stroke of which is changed whenever the
eccentric action of pin Z which propels the piston is changed substantially as
described.
2. In such lubricators the arrangement by which the cock h, regulating the
supply of the lubricant from the body of the pump may be turned by means of
turning-cross K and pegs gg whenever the piston has arrived at one of its dead
points substantially as described and shewn in the drawings.

I, CHARLES FRANCIS WILMOT of 189 Brixton Road, London, Gentleman,
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 :-
My invention relates to improvements in garden tools and the manufacture
thereof whereby such tools may be much more cheaply produced than heretofore.
In the accompanying drawings in which like letters of reference indicate
corresponding parts,
Fig. 1 is a view of a blank.
Fig. 2 shews the garden tool made from this blank.
Fig. 3 shows another form of blank, and
Fig. 4 shows the garden tool made from this blank.
Fig. 5 shows a garden trowel.
According to my invention I form a blank preferably of steel or iron, and of the
shape shewn (Fig. 1.) this blank being provided with a hole c at the top. The
upper edges of this blank are then curved along a certain length to form the tool
shewn in Fig. 2. the end a of which may be used as a dibble while the other end b
can be utilized as a spade, spud, or hoe. The blank shewn in Fig. 3 has a somewhat
different form for the purpose of making a tool such as shewn in Fig. 4. the upper
end a of which is wide to receive a handle if required; the lower end b being used
as a spade, spud, or hoe as before. Fig. 5 shews a garden trowel which is
likewise made, according to my invention, with a blank of somewhat different
shape.
The holes c are used to suspend the tool to a nail or hook with or without the aid
of a string.
Having now fully 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
claim is :-
1. The method of making garden tools by means of iron or steel blanks
substantially as herein described and shewn.
2. The different garden tools constructed substantially as herein described and
shewn.

An Improvement in or relating to Banjos and other like
Instruments.
I THOMAS HENRY FLIGHT of 23, Nile Road New Brompton in the County of
Kent, Engine Room Artificer Royal Navy 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 the special adaptation of a vibrator so as to augment the
sound and produce clearer notes on this instrument than heretofore.
According to this invention I fix a thin metal vibrator of a dished form inside the
rim of the banjo or like instrument.
And in order that my said invention may be better understood I will now refer
to the drawings accompanying this Specification in which
Fig. 1 shews view of dished metal vibrator detached.
Fig. 2 elevation partly in section of a banjo with my improvement adapted
thereto.
Fig. 3 top plan of banjo with parchment removed so as to shew interior.
The same letters denote the same parts in all the views.
A shews the vibrator fixed or suspended at its centre to spring portion D. of
bracket B.
The metal vibrator should be well hammered in order to increase the tone.
The bracket B is clipped on to the cross piece C. by means of the screws E. E.
F. shews the parchment, G. shews the rim of banjo.
It will be seen that by this special adaptation of metal vibrator which being only
suspended at its centre and not touching the rim is quite free to vibrate so that the
tone is increased and improved in quality.

page_text: 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
claim is :-
:-
(1) In banjos and other like instruments the metal vibrator fixed or suspended in
the rim immediately under the parchment substantially as set forth.
(2) The improvement in banjos and like instruments substantially as set forth.
