The American Artisan UNITED STATES AND FOREIGN PATENT AGENCY. 189 Broadway, New York. M esars. BROWN, COOMBS & CO., Proprie tors of the AMERICAN ARTISAN, offer their best services to inventors, as Solicitors ot Ameri can aud Foreign Patents. Mr. IItg«K( T. Brows, of this firm, lias bad more than hoenly-two years’ experience in that prefession, both in this country and Europe, and bis long practice has made him personally known to thousands of inven tors and patentees. The applications for the patents npon many of the greater nnd more im portent inventions ol the present century have been prepared by him. Messrs. Brow a, Coombs &Co., are thoroughly familiar with ull the rules nnd re gulations instituted for the rapid transaction of business with the United States Patent Office, and the general practice in the Patent Bureaus of vari ous European countries: and this knowledge ren ders them confident t hat tlieir post expedience, witli their present nuequaled facilities, enables them to elaborately and yet speedily prepare ull the docu ments required by law in applications for patents, and to promise their clients an absolute certainty of success'll, their|efi'orte to'obtain.LettersjPatentfor inventions that ate really new and useful. Parti cnlar care is given to the exeentiou of the «o«:Mrate drawings which must always accompany every application for a patent, and they employ none but the most, efficient draughtsmen. The best evidence of the manner iu which Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co.’s business is performed, is, that the “Amlu ican Artisan Patent Aokncy,"during thethree years of its existence, has been the most successful snstiluliou of the kind ever established. Tiio priiKipal offices of Messrs. Brows. Coombs & Co. arc situated at 18!) Broadway,onp6site John • street, New York, in the most central part of tire city. This location is one of very easy access by strangers, inasmuch us it is within a stono's throw from the City Hail. All inventors temporarily so journing in the metro|>olis are invited to visit this establishment. ln|l hemajority of instance no model or drawing of an invention will be necessary on the first interview, as a mere oral description by tlie visitor will ordinarily sutlice to convey such aknowledge of his invention as will enable Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co. to definitely determine whether a machine or process is uew or old —paten table or not. The office horns are from 9a.m. to 5 r. m. Messrs. Brows, Coombs & Co. are prepared to furnish to persons residing at a distance from New York—free of charge- hbrillen opiitlons as to whether inventions contain any features of paten table novelty; to do this they simply require a sketch or rongh model of tlif machine or other in vention that, is suppored to be new, together with a brief description of the same, and ns soon as pos sible thereafter a letter of tbe best advice is mail ed to the person desiring tin’ information. These opinions are formed from their owu mature exper ience; but if an inventor desires to know, positively, whether his incipient idea has ever laxu embodied in a machine or process already patented, his wisest course will be to have a preliminary examination made at the United States Patent office by Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co., who will make a special searebjamoug all the records of that institution, anil then promptly forward a full and carefully written report as to the patentability of the invention un der examination. For this'labor tile small fee of $5 is payabh; in advance; and the i emittance shouldbe accompanied by a sketch of the invention and a few lines of writing describing the same, and distinctly statingthose pointsof noveltv which the inventor desires to have protected by Letters- Patent Patents for uew aud imeful inventions are now granted for tbe term of sevkntf KN ykaus The flrstinstalment olJliedSoverntnemdee is sls, which sum—together with fifty cents revenue stamp-tax on the power-of attorney— is payable in advance, on applying for the patent; and S.H) additional are due to the Government when the Lettera-Patenture allowed. The Agency fee is from upward, ac-. cording to the labor involved; but in all cases our charges will he as moderate as possible iu the pre paration of drawings and all necessary documents. This tee is not payable until after the application has lieeii prepared and the cuse is ready to be sent to Washington. Messis. Brown, Coombs & Co. have a brauch in Washington so that all applica tions made through them can have every necessary attention in tlieir passage through the Patent Office Inventors applying for patents must, furnish models of their machines, whenever possible, for the inspection of the Examiners iu the Patent Office ; but if the invention is a chemical composi tion, samples of ull tbp ingredients will be neces sary. Each of these should l>« marked with the in ventor's name, then carefully boxed, and sent (by express,prepaid),together with tlie firstinstelmeu ofthe Government fee,to Messrs Brown, Coombs A Co. When the mode! is small and light, it can be conveniently and clieaply sentby mail The model lunst not exceed one foot iu any of itsdimens ioua, unless’ilis of such a character that it is im practicable.

No models of designs are required; but duplicate drawings or photographs must be furnished- Tlie specification to accompany tlie drawings or photographs re quires to lie prepared witli great care. Messrs Brown. Coombs &. Co. give very pnrtienlar at tention pl this branch of their buriuess. Tlieir charge for preparing applications for design-patents is generally about sls. Design patents are only granted to American cilixensor to aliens who have resided one year in tbe United States and made oath of their intention to become citizens thereof. The facilities of Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co for obtaining patents in the various European countries are equal if not superior to those of any other iu tlie United States. Witli regard to their qualifications for such business. It need only be stated that Mr. Brown has had the prepara tion of more European applienlious than any othei person in this country, Messrs.

Perry Davistk Son, Providence,R. l.i 1 Dear Siw—During a residence of some ten ■ years as a Missionary in Siam and China, I found . your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable ' remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera. 1 In administering the medicine, I found it moat ■ effectual to gjvo a teaspoonfnl of Pain Killer in a gill of hot water sweetened with sugar; then, 1 after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table ' spoonful ot tho same mixture every tninnte until relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to the extremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain Killer, clear and rub the limbs briskly. Os those who bad the cholera, aud took the medicine faith frilly in the way stated above, eight ont of ten recovered. Toura, iruty, K TELFORD. If au attack with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or Cramp Colic, don’t delay therose of the Pain Killer. Bold by all -medicine dealers. Price, 25 cents, 50 cents, and $1 per bottle. Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,1866. Gentlemen— * _ * * I want to say a little more about the Pain Kiiier. I consider h a very valuable medicine, and always keen it on hand. I have travelled a good deal since I have been in Kansas, and never without taking it with me, In my practice I used it freely for the Asiatic Cholera, in 1819, and with better success than any other medicine; I also used it here for cholera in 1855, with the same good result. Truly, yours, A. HUNTING, M. D. Swatu, China. Cholcia I * * * I regret lo say that the cliole.ru has prevailed here of late to a fearful extent. For the last three weeks, from ten to fifty or sixty fatal cases eacli day has been re ported. I should add that the Puin Killer, sent recently from tlie Mission House, has been used with considerable success daring this epidemic. If taken in season is generally effectual in check ing the disease. ID v. CHARLES HARDINIG. Sliolapore, India. [From the Portland Monthly.] Summer Complaint and Dysentery. Bowel complaints seem just now to be the prevailing element, and any medicine that is every where acceptable, and that is reliable, is a very desirable acquisition. From what we have seen, heard, and experienced, we believe Davis' Pain Killer is this desideratum. For the best method of using it, we quote from the directions: “For common bowel complaints, give one tea spoontul in a gill of new milk and molasses, in equal parte, stirred well together; lessen the dose tor children, according to the age. Ff the pain be severe, bathe tbe bowels and back with I lie medi cine. This mode of treatment is good in cases of the cholera morbus, sudden stoppages, etc. Ke peat the dose every hour. “The quickest way I ever saw tlie dysentery cured was* by taking one spoonful of ihe Pain Killer in one gill of milk aud molasses stirred well together and drank hot, at the saiile time bathing the bowels freely with medicine Let the dose be repeated every hour until the patient is relieved.” If every pereon who has reason to fear this disease would provide themselves with a Ipittle of this medicine, andffisr as occasion required, we believe a great union ill of Buffering and sjctaiess would be saved. je!2—2m Special Notice. • B S L to W<J « * £ i 2 x 11.,I 1 ., .
