DON’T SLOP OVER.
"Don't slop ov*»,” th# «M msa said.
At he eUc*d kit hand an th* roang man’s h*aJ !
“Go it by all means—go It fast;
U» it while leather and hone shoes last;
Go it while hide and hair on hone
Will hold together. Oh, go it, of coarse—
Go it at rapid as erer Too can, „
Bat don't slop orer, my dear young mao.
"Don't slop orcr. You'll hod some day
That keeping an eye to the windward will pay.
A horse may run a little toe long,
A preacher preach just a traction too strong,
And a poet who please* the world with rhymes
May writ* and regret It after times. •
Keep the end «f the effort in view, (
And don't slop over, whatever you do.
•• Don't slop over. Th* wisest men
An bound to slop over now and then ;
And yet tho wisest at work or feast
4r* the T«rT «*»«* who pl«®d*r lha ****!,
Those who for spilt milk never wail
Are the ones who carry the steepest pail.
Wherever you go. go 1* for tho fat.
But don't slop over and frees* to that.
"Don’t slop over - distrust yourself,
Nor always reach to the highest shelf.
The next to the highest will generally do,
And auswer tho needs of such as you.
t'iimb, of course, but always stop
And take breath a little this side of the top ;
And so you will reaeh it in wind and strong,
Without slopping over. Thus ends my song.”

The American Artisan
VS IfBD STATUS AMI FORRNJN
PATENT AGENCY.
Alt ers. imoWN, COOMBS \ (’<>., IVoprio
torn of the AMERICAN ARTISAN, oiler llit-ir
beat services to inventors, ;i» Solicitor}* of Aincri
can and Foreign Patent*. Mr. llkkkvT.Brown.
of this firm* lias li.ul more than twenty-two years'
fxpeiieace in that pretension, both in this country
amt Europe; for fifteen years lie was the principal
professional assistant of Mcasr*. Muhn &. Cos.,
Patent Agents of this city ; and Ins long practice
lias made him personally know it to thousands of in
ventors and patentee*. The applications for the
{intent* upon many of the greater and more im
portant inventions of the present century have been
prepared by him. Messrs. Bkown, Coomiis & Cos.,
are thoroughly familiar with all the rules and re
gulations instituted for the rapid transaction of
business with the United State* Patent Office, and
the general practice in the Patent Bureaus of vari
ous Europeancountries; aud this knowledge ren
der* them confident that their post experience, with
their present unequaled facilities, enable* them to
elaborately and yet speedily prepare all the docu
ments required by law in applications for patents,
and to promise their client* an absolute certainty
of success in theirjetforts to obtain;! setters Patent lor
inventions that aie really new and qseful. Parti
cular care is given to the execution of the accurate
drawing* which must always accompany every
application for a patent, and they employ none but
the most efficient draughtsmen. The best evidence
of the manner in which Messrs. Bkown, Coombs
&, Co.'s bufeitilas is perfoimed, is, that the “Amiu
ican Artisan Patent AokkcyV'during the three
years of its existence, has been the most successful
institution of the kind ever established.
The principal offices of Messrs. Brown. Coombs
Cos. are situated at 189 Broadway, opposite John
street. New York, in the most central part of the
city. This location is one of very easy access by
strangers inasmuch as it is within a stone’s throw
from the City Hall. All inventors temporal ily so
journing in tue metropolis are invited to visit this
establishment. ln|the majority of instance no model
or drawing of an invention ’will be necessary on
the first interview, as a mere oral description by
the visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey such
aknowledge of bis invention as will enable Messrs.
Brown, Coombs & Cos. to definitely determine
whether a machine or process is new or old—paten
table or not. The office hours will be from 9a. m.
to o v. M.
Messrs. Brown, Coo mkm Cos. are prepared to
furnish to persons residing ut a distance from New
York—free of charge —written opinions as to
whether inventions contain any features of paten
table novelty, to do thi* they simply require a
sketch or rough model of the machine or other in
vention that is supposed to be new, together with
a brief description of the same, and as soon as pos
sible thereafter a letter of the best advice is mail
ed to the person desiring the information. These
opinions are formed from to-ir own mature exper
ience; but if an inventor desires to know, positively,
whether his incipient idea has ever been embodied
in a machine or process already patented, hi* wisest
course will be to have a preliminary examination
made at the United States Patent office by Messrs.
Brown, Coomiis Cos., who will make a special
seai clijamong all the records of that institution, and
then promptly forward a full and carefully written
report as to the patentability of the invention un
der examination. For this labor the small fee of
s,> i* payable in advance; and the letnittancc
should oe* accompanied by a sketch of the invention
and a few lines of writing describing the same,
and distinctly stating those poimsol novelty which
the inventor desires to have protected by Letters
Patent
Patent* for new and useful inventions are now
granted for the term of skvkntkkn year*. The
first instalment oPthe Government tee is sls, which
sum together with fifty cents revenue stamp tax
on the power <»f attorney--i* pnvahlc m advance ,
on applying for the patent ; and $-b additional are
due to the Government when tin-1 setters Patent are
allowed. The Agency fee is from $25 upward, ac
cording to the labor involved: but in all cases our
charges will be as moderate as j»*>: -ii»l»* in the pre
juration of drawing* and all necessary documents.
This fee is not payable until niter the applieutiou
has been prepared and the case is ready to he sent
to Washington. Messrs. Bkown. Coo.mhs (.'«•.
have a branch in Washington so that all applica
tioiis made through them can have every necessary
attention in their passage through the PatentOlliee
Inventors applying for patent* must furnish
models of their machine*, whenever possible, for
the inspection of tho Examiners in the Patent
Office; out if the invention is a chemical composi
tion. sample* of all the ingredients will he neces
sary. Kacli of these should he marked with thelin
ventor'B name, then carefully boxed, and sent (by
express, prepaid) t together with the first instalment
oft he Government fee, to Messrs BuOw.v, (Toombs
& Cos. When the model is small and light, it can
be conveniently and cheaply sentby mail The
model must not exceed owe foot jn any of its dimens
ions, miles* it is of such a character that it is im
practicable.
Patent*, except those for design*, are granted
on equal terms to citizens and all foreigners, except
inhabitant* of Canada nod some other* of the
British American Province*.
Besides patents or new ami usefin inventions,
there are also granted patents for designs.
Design-patents are not now, as formerly, limited
Strictly to ornamental configuration : but under
Section II of the Act of March 2,1861, any new
form ofany article, or any impression mfiyurc upon
tlie surface of any article or material, by whatever
means or process produced, can be patented. Un
der this Act, patentees are entitled to the exten
sion of their respective patents for the term of seven
years froui tlie day on which said patents shall ex
pire, npon the same terms and restrictions as are
now provided fortlie extensions of Letters Patent.
Among' the numerous subjects foi patents of this
class may be particularly mentioned —castings of
ail metals, paits of machines, household furniture
and utensils; glassware, hardware of all kinds,
cornices, and other interior and exterior decorations
of buildings; also, designs for woven and printed
fabrics, dress and upholstery trimmings, and liar
ness labels and trade-marks for medicines, per
fumery, and all preparations, compositions, or
merchaudi e, put up in bottles, boxes, or otiier
package,-, are suitable subp ets; also, the forms of
such bottles, boxes, or packages themselves, and
envelopes, likewise all works of art, as statuary,
busts, compositions in alto or basso-relievo. The
Government fee ou a design patent for 3| years is
$10:7 years, sls; 14 years, s3n. No models of
assign* aro required ; bnt duplicate drawings or
photographs must be furnished- The specification
to accompany tho drawing* or photographs re
quires to be prepared with great care. Messrs
llitowa, Coomiis St- Go. give very pariienlar at
tent-ion U< this brunch of their business. Their
charge for preparing applications for design-patents
is generally about sls. Design patents are only
granted to American eilizensor to aliens who have
resided one year in the United States and made
oath of tln-ir intention to heroine citizen* thereof.
The facilities of Messrs. II ,own, Coomb* St. Cos.
tor obtaining patent* iu the various European
countries are equal if not superior to those of any
other in the United States. With regard to their
qualification* for eni-b business, it need only be
stated that Mr. Bkown, while with Messrs. siunn
Sc Go. ami iu Id* previous prnrtn-e, and since the
establishment nf tbe ” A M Kitti'AN Aar is in I'atknt
Aor.scy," | mH hint tlie preparation of more Hum
penn applications than any other Person In this
country, Messrs ItnowN, t'ooMiis ft Cos., besides
having a branchoffice to WsbiiinoTon, have their

For forty years I have been afflicted with

DR. RAD WAY
Is iu receipt of an important official docu-
Blent, signed by the Professors of the
Medical College of Breslau, Prussia,
embodying tho result of an
ana'ysis of
HAD WAY’S REGULATING FILLS.
" Tiie Faculty of the College state in their
ro|i(ut (hat after a careful and minute examina
tion, they havo the honor to state that “ the
pills are not only free from every sqjistance
injurious to health, but are composed wholly
of substances and elements promotive of
digestion, and certain at the same time to
act favorably upon the nervous system, &c.,
Ac. They state, further, that tho injurious
rumors set afloat by the Pnissian apothe
caries originated “in a mean spirit of trade
jealousy, excited by the great celebrity at
tained by the Pills within s very brief
period.”

INDIGESTION !
In cases where natural evacuations are
difficult to secure, and a quick discharge is
essential, take six of Railway’s Pills and pul
verize them, —take the pill powder in water
or preserves,—in half an hour they will ope
rate. We havo known the most distressing
pains of Gastritis, Bilious Cholic, Inflamma
tion, Congestion, &c., stopped, and the re
tained irritating humors expelled from the
bowels in thirty minutes by this treatment.
It is however, better in chronic cases to take
the pills ns they are, and let them gradually
di .lie iu the stomach. These Pills possess
iu tl* "ughest degree cathartic, aperient,
tonic, and diapharetic properties. They do
do not weaken or debilitate tho system or
any of its organs, anil will leavo the bowel*
regular and healthy. They purify and equal
ize Hie circulation of the blood. No conges
tion or inflammation will occur , while th*
system is under their influence. Price 26
ceuts per box, or 5 boxes for one dollar.
