Figure 5 a plan of the transmitter with a part of the diaphragm removed;
Figure 6 an inverted plan of the transmitter with the base plate removed;
Figure 7 a vertical section through the transmitter and its casing; and
Figure 8 a vertical section through the receiver.
An important feature of these improvements is the metallic casing K of the
transmitter M. The outside of this part of the instrument is provided with three
springs F F and F³, the upper ends fof which are curved and project inwards
through suitable openings A in the metallic casing. Around the casing of the
receiver T there is formed a groove N into which the ends f of the springs can
engage when the receiver is placed within the transmitter casing, the receiver being
thereby held in place.
When the receiver is removed from the transmitter casing, the spring F' will
come into contact with the metallic casing K and this spring forming part of the
local battery circuit, the local battery will be put into circuit with the transmitter.
On the outside of the transmitter there is a metal contact piece B which is a
terminal of the local bell circuit. When the receiver T is inserted in the
transmitter casing, the spring F is pushed outward into contact with the piece B,
thus closing the bell circuit. The same operation opens the transmitter circuit as
already explained, by the removal of the springs from contact with the metallic
casing K. The calling up key R is arranged as represented in combination with
the contact piece B and spring F³.
The several circuits are arranged in a similar manner to those of existing instru-
ments, and the instruments themselves may be of the ordinary types such as are
be the desig

If desired, and under certain conditions, the transmitter may be arranged
sideways, the position of the receiver being such that when in the transmitter case,
it presses the spring ³, causing it to close the calling up and local bell circuits,
and open the transmitter circuit, as already described....

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. A telephonic apparatus consisting of a transmitter and receiver and circuit
operating devices, the receiver being constructed to fit within the metallic casing of
the transmitter and the circuits being opened and closed by the action of the
removal or insertion of the receiver, substantially as hereinbefore described with

1, HENRI RINCK, of Cours du Midi Lyons in the Republic of France, Brewer,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The object of this invention is to provide a beverage consisting principally of
beer of any kind and having iron so dissolved therein that it is suitable as a tonic
beverage and will keep for a length of time without throwing down sediment, the
improved tonic beer being provided with its keeping qualities without the use of
any deleterious substances more especially salicylic acid.
The improved beer is made non alcoholic and is a safe and healthy beverage
more easily supported by dyspeptic stomachs than wine, and affords a very agreable
and alimentary mode of giving iron to such constitutions as require the same.
The presence of iron does not alter the flavour which remains agreable, nor does
it affect the clearness of the beer.
The improved ferruginous beer is made by adding the desired dose of ammoniacal
citrate of iron to the beer, dissolving the same therein and then submitting the beer
to a slow and prolonged pasteurisation.

An Improvement in Gas Lamps.
We, THE LAMP MANUFACTURING COMPANY LIMITED, of 12 and 14 Leonard
Street, City Road, in the County of London, and WILLIAM HENRY ISAAC
WELCH of 68 Coborn Road, in the County of London, 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 construction of lamp in which a bulbous gas flame is
supplied externally with air heated by conduction from the parts under the flame
and is also supplied internally with air heated by passing through a chamber above
the flame. The accompanying drawing is a vertical section of a lamp according to
this invention.
The gas entering at G passes a screw valve 9 with handle g' by which the supply
can be regulated with great delicacy, ascends by three or more bent tubes 2 to a
chamber and thence through the perforations of an Argand burner g' made of
steatite or other preferably non-conducting material, forming a cylindrical flame.
Air for supplying the exterior of the flame enters, through perforations a, an
annular chamber a' whence part of it issues by lateral perforations a², and part
issues at a between the burner g and the inwardly turned lip of the casing of the
chamber al Air for supplying the interior of the flame enters through perforations b
a central tube & which terminates in a grating 2 within a chamber. From this
chamber the heated air descends as indicated at 4 to the flame f.
By means of a projecting flange, which acts as a deflector, and by the direction
of the air current the flame is expanded into bulbous form. As this flame is
supplied externally with air heated by passing along the surfaces under the flame
which are heated by conduction, and is supplied internally with air heated by
passing along the hot tube and through the hot chamber the combustion is
very complete and the light produced is of great brilliancy.
The glass chimney C is in its lower part of bulbous form to suit the shape of the
Hame, and above that part is carried up to the usual height in cylindrical form.
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 :-
:-
A gas lamp wherein the flame from an Argand burner is supplied externally with
air heated by passing surfaces below the flame heated by conduction, and is supplied
internally with air heated by passing through a central tube and a chamber above
the flame, the flame being by means of a projecting flange and by the direction of
the internal air supply, swelled into bulbous form, substantially as described.

piece, or more iron with nail holes in it. This iron comes flush with the ground
surface and may have parts protruding so as to come flush with outside edge of
shoe, or form a clip. The shoe is driven with ordinary nails and may be used with
leather or not.
The advantages are: it is nonslipping, and concussionless, prevents contraction of
the heels, and the frog pad can be moulded with the shoe if necessary.

WALTER WILLIAM WHITEHOUSE 177 Queens Road Hastings Sussex
Optician 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 of pivotting, or jointing the well known sliding, expansible
bridge of eyeglasses (that are controlled by a spiral spring) at each end of the said
bridge, at the point where the eye rims are braized to the bridge, (see A on the
drawings) Fig. I.
By the use of these pivots or joints (see A on drawing Fig. II) it allows the eye-
glass to be folded, an advantage much desired by persons using this particular form
of eyeglass, especially when fitted with astigmatic lenses.
The process of making these pivots or joints, consists in taking two pieces of
"inch square steel, which are brazed or soldered to the eye rims.
Then two pieces of "inch steel are brazed or soldered to the ends of the sliding
bridge.
The pieces of steel are then drilled slotted, and jointed together and finally
pivotted with an evenly filed or turned pin or screw.
In the act of folding, each eye rim describes or completes a half circle.
drawing Fig. III, shews top view of pivots or joints when folded.
"A" on
This particular form of eyeglass has hitherto been unfoldable owing to it having
a rigid bridge and the absence of the two joints or pivots, made in the manner
described, and shown on drawing (A Fig. 1).
It has the advantage of being small in compass when folded, thus allowing it to be
put into a much smaller case or sheath than hitherto.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-

An Improvement in or connected with Eaves Gutters.
We, WILLIAM ROBERT PRYKE, and WILLIAM PALMER, both of 48 Upper
Thames Street, City of London, Wholesale Ironmongers, 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 novel method of making, either in the casting process,
or affixing thereto certain appliances, such as ribs, fillets, studs, projections, or
excrescences of any kind, to or on the back outside surface or wall face of eaves
gutters whether of the O-G, or other form, so that the eaves gutters, not only
stand out from the wall and are set in better positions than usual but also from
the shape at which the ribs, fillets, studs, projections, or excrescences are arranged,
said gutters become better water gatherers and prevent the usual front edge over-
flow in times of heavy rain.
The annexed sheet of drawings show three examples of ribs, fillets, studs, or
projections on the back outside or wall surface of an eaves gutter.
According to Figure 1, A is a rib or fillet. B the gutter. This rib or fillet A
is of the same thickness of metal as that of the gutter B there being a hollow on
the inside face.
Figure 2 which is a similar view to that shown at Figure 1 has the rib or fillet A
without the inner recess or hollow.
Figure 3 shows an eaves gutter with three studs, lugs, or projections A, A, A,
the middle or upper stud having the nail or screw hole formed in it to enable the
gutter to be secured in the usual manner, a corresponding nail or screw hole being
in the ribs or fillets of Figures 1 and 2.
We have only shown two of our forms of projections on the back of a gutter
but they may vary and each gutter back may have two or more of such ribs, fillets,
studs, or other projections according to the length of the gutter and the shape of
the projections on each gutter may vary.
The ribs, fillets, studs, projections, or excrescences extend to a greater distance
at the bottom than at the top, so that the projections set the gutter upright and
away from the wall for the proper flow of water in or along the gutter channel.
It is not necessary that the projections, studs, or extension pieces be grouped, as
at Figure 3, as they may be at intervals.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what we
claim is :-
Making metal eaves gutters with projections, or their equivalents on or to
the outside of back for the purpose of keeping the gutter upright and the back
away from a wall, also for causing rain water to flow along the bottom of the
channel, as described and constructed substantially as shown at A of the annexed
drawings.

Improvements in Tobacco-pipe Bowls.
THOMAS STEVENS 190 Earls Court Road, London, S.W. Journalist, do
hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The manufacture of tobacco-pipe bowls from short lengths of hollow bamboo.
Instead of making tobacco-pipe bowls by shaping, and boring out, pieces of solid
wood, my method consists in cutting bamboo, (which requires no boring out) into
suitable lengths for pipe-bowls and plugging one end; then making a hole in the
side, and inserting a stem.
An inner lining of clay, cement or other substance may be used; or an inner
tube or bowl, fitting into the bamboo. The inner bowl may be the full depth of
the bamboo bowl; or it may be of lesser depth, thus leaving the lower part
of the bamboo bowl, into which the stem leads, for a smoke cooling and nicotine-
collecting chamber.

Improvements in Pipe Connections.
A communication from NATHANIEL ELSWARD SMITH, Gentleman, of 24, Magnolia.
Avenue, Jersey City, New Jersey, and JOHN RHODERIC MCPHERSON,
United States Senator, residing at Jersey City, aforesaid, United States of
America.
1, ALFRED JULIUS BOULT of 323 High Holborn in the County of Middlesex,
Member of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, 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 an improvement upon the invention described in the British
Specification No. 12823/", Improvements in pipe connections" from which
Specification information as to the general arrangement of the joints may be
obtained.
In the invention described in the above mentioned Specification it is just possible
that with soft pipes the flaring ends might be drawn through the coupling and the
present invention is designed partly to obviate the possibility of such an occurrence
and partly to prevent twisting of the pipes in screwing the couplings up.
accompanying drawing is a longitudinal section of a pipe connection carried out.
according to this invention.
The
C and B are the screwed couplings adapted to screw together, and A. are the
pieces of pipes to be joined. D is the annular button or ring similar to that
described in the previous Specification, but slightly altered in shape. In the present
invention the ends of the pipes A instead of being simply pressed outwards are
formed with distinct heads or flanges H behind each of which is the flanged ring
or washer I, shown in perspective in the detached view, an annular recess J or K
being formed in each of the screwed couplings B and C for the reception of these
washers. The recess K is merely adapted to receive the body of the washer I
while the recess J is adapted to receive both the body and the flange of the
washer I, the latter form being convenient in the coupling C on account of the
female thread with which it is provided. The square flange or head H will
prevent the pipe even when made of soft metal from pulling through the pipe
connection and the washer I will enable the pipe connection to be turned for
screwing up without twisting the pipe.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said inven-
tion, as communicated to me by my foreign correspondents, and in what manner
the same is to be performed, I declare that what I claim is,―
1. In a pipe connection such as described the combination with a screwed
coupling such as B or C and headed pipes such as A H of a ring or washer such
as I substantially as described and illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
2. In a pipe connection such as described the combination with a ring or washer
such as I and screwed coupling such as B or C of a recess such as J or K
substantially as described and illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
