Summer Complaint and Dysentery.
Bowol compktiuta seem just now to be the
prevailing etemeut, and nny medicine that is
everywhere acceptable, and that is reliable, is a
very desirable acquisition. From what we nave
seen, heard, jnd experienced, we believe Davis'
Pain Killer is this desideratum. For the best
method.of using it, we quote from the directions:
“For’cinumon bowel complaints, give one tea
spoonful in of new milk and molasses, in
equal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose
for children, according to the age. If the pain be
severe, bathe the bowels and back with the medi
cine. Thia mode of treatment is good in cases of
the choiefa igorbus. sudden stoppages, etc. Re
peat the dose every hour.
“The quickest way I ever saw the dysentery
cured was by taking one spoonful of tlie Pain
Killer tn one gill of milk and molasses stirred
well together and drank hut, at the same, time
bathing The bowel* freely with medicine - ! Let
the dose be repeated every lionr until the patient
is relieved.’ 1
If every person who has reason to fear this
disease would provide themselves with a bottle
ol this medicine, and use as occasion required, we
believe a great, amount of suffering and sickness
would be saved. jel2—2m

Messrs. BROWN, COOMBS & CO., Proprie
tors of the AMERICAN ARTISAN, offer their
best aervices to inventors, as Solicitors of Ameri
can and Foreign Patents. Mr. Hknrt T. Brown,
of this firm, has-had more than Iwenty-tmo years'
1 experience in that profession, both ju this country
and Europe; for fifteen years be was the principal
professional assistant, of Messrs. Munn & Co.,
Patent Agents of this city; and his long practice
has made him personally known to thousands of in
ventors and patentees. The applications for the
patents upon many of the greater and more im
portunt inventions ol tlie present century have been
prepared by him. Messrs. Brows, Coombs & Co.,
are thoroughly familiar with all the rules and re
gulations instituted for the rapid transaction of
business with the United States Patent Office, and
the general practice in the Patent Uureaeß of vari
ous European countries; and this knowledge ren
ders them confident that their post experience, with
their present unequaled facilities, enables them to
elaborately and yet speedily prepare- all the docu-
. meats required by law in applications for patents,
and to promise their clients an absolute certainty
1 ofsuccessin tlieirjefforts to/>l>tainlLettersTateiit for
inventions that aie really new and useful. Parti
cular care is given to the execution of the aiAmrate
drawings winch must always accompany "every
application for a patent, and they employ none but
the most efficient d raugbtsmen. The best evidence
of the manner in winch Messrs. Brown,.Coombs
& Co.’s business is performed, is, that the “Amur- •
lean Artisan Patent Aoxscr,” during the three
years of its existence, has been the mast successful
institution of ike kind ever established.
The principal offices of Messrs. Brown.Coombs
& Co. 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. AU inventors tempohnily so
journing in the metropolis are invited to visit this
establishment. I nft lie majority of instance no model
oc drawing of an invention will be necessary on
the first interview, as a mere oral description by
the visitor will ordinarily snffice to convey such
akiiowledce of Ms invention as will enable Messrs.
Hrown, Coombs A. Co. 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&p.M.
Messrs. BaoWN, Coo.Mßg & Co. are prepared to
furnish to persons residing at a distance from New
York—free of eharge-r-wviWea opinions as to
whether inventions contain any features of paten
table novelty; to do thia 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 Rie same, and as soon as pqs
sible thereafter a letter of the best advice is mail
ed to the person desiring the information. These
opinions are formed from their own mature exper
ience; but if an ip ven tor desires to know, positively,
whether his incipient idea has ever been embodied
In a machine or process already patented, hip wisest
course will be to have a preliminary examination
uuule at the United Slates Patent office by Messrs.
Brown, Coombs &■ Co., who will make a special
searclijimong all the reebrdsof that institution, and
then promptly forward a full and carefully w 1 itteu
report as to the patentability of the invention un
der examination. For this labor the small foe of
|5 is payable in advance; bud the lemittuuce
should be accompanied by a sketch of the invention .
and a few lines of writing describing the same,
and distinctly suiting those points of novelty which
the inventor desires to have protected !>£ tetters-
Patent
Patents for new and useful inventions are now
granted for the term of sgVKNTXKN xxaks The
1 firetinstalmont oCtbe Goverinnem feels|ls, which
snm—together with fifty cents revenue stamp-tax
bn the jiower-of attorney—is payable in advance,
on applying for the patent.; and S2O additional are
due to the Government when the Letters-Patent are
allowed. The Agency fee is from $25 upward, ac
oerding to the labor iavclvod; but tn all cases our
charges will be as moderate as possible in the pre
paration of drawings and all necessary documents.
This fee is not payable until after the application
has been prepared and the case is ready to be sent
to Washington. Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co.
have a brunch in Washington bo that all applica
tions made through them eau have every necessary
attention in their passage through the Patent Office
Inventors applying for patents must furnish
models of tboir machines, whenever possible, for
the iiißpectioii of the Examiners in the Patent
Office; but if the invention is a chemicifl composi
tion, samples of all the ingredients will be neces
sary. Each of these should be marked with the in
ventor's name, then carefully boxed, and sent (by
I express.prepaid),together with the first mstalmeii
' oftheGoveriimentfee,to Messrs Brown,Coombs
& Co. When the model is small and light, it can
be conveniently and cheaply sentby mail The
model must not exceed one foot in any of itsdimens
idns, unless it is of such a character that it is ini
practicable.
1 Patents, except those for designs, are granted
on equalderms to citizens and allforeigiiers, except
. inhabitants of Canada and some others of the
1 British American Provinces.
1 Besides patents Or new and useful ’uventicus.
there are also granted patents s os liesigns.
Design-patents are not now. as formeriv, limited
■ strictly to ornamental configuration; but under
Section 11 of the Act of March 2,1861, any new
formof any article, orany impression or figure upon
the surface of any article or material, by whatever
■ means or prooesa produced, can be patented. Un
der tins Act, patentees ure entitled to the exten
sion of their respective putenta for the term ofinrs
years from the day on which said patents shall ex
pire, upon the same terms aud restrictions as are
now provided for the extensions of Letters-Patent.
Among the numerous vuliß-cts fuj patents of this
class may be particularly mentioned—castings of
all metals, parts of machines, household foiniture
and utensils; glassware, hardware of all kinds,
cornices, and otherinteriorandexterior decorations
of buildings; alao, desigua tor woven and printed
fabrics, dress ami upholstery triminiugs, aud har
ness labels and trade marks for medicines, per
fumery, and will preparations, compositions, or
mercliandi.-e, put up in bottles, boxes, or other
packages, are suitable subjects; also, the forms of
such bottles, boxes, or packages tlndnaelves, and
envelopes, likewise ail works of art, as statuary,
busts, compositioiiH in alto or basso-relievo. The
Government fee on a design-patent for 3| years is
$10; 7 years, sls; 11 years, S3O. No models of'
designs are required; but duplicate drawings or
photographs must be furnished- The specification
to accompany the drawings or photographs re
quires so be prepared With great care. M.-o», o
UtiqWN, Coombs A Co. give very particular at
tention to this branch of their business. Their
chargefor preparing applications for design-patents
is generally about sls. Design patents are only
granted to American citizensor to aliens who have

The facilities of Messrs. BsowN, Coombs & Co
for obtmuing jmtento in the various European

qualifications for such business, it need only be
etated that. Mr. Brown, white with Messrs. Mean
