The American Artisan UNITEDSTATES AND FOREIGN PATENT AGENCY. 189 Broadway, New York. Messrs. BROWN, COOMBS & CO., Proprie tor of (lie AMERICAN ARtWAN, offer their beet services to inventors, ns Solicitors ot Atnori can and Foreign Patents. Mr. Hknrv T. Brown, of this firm,him bad more than twenty-tu-o years' expei ieaee in that profession, both in this country and Europe, and his long practice has made hint personally known to thousands of inven tors and patentees. The applicUtfoos for the patents tipou many of the greater and tpore ini portant in voutions’ol the present century have been prepared by him. Messi's. Brown, 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 tlie Patent Bureaus of vari ous European countries; .aid this knowledge ren ders them coulident that their postexperience, with their present nnequaled facilities, enables them to elaborately and yet speedily prepare all the docu ments required by law in applications for patents, and to promise their clients an absolute certainty ofsuceessyn. theirjclforte for inventions that ate really new and useful. Parti cular care is given to the execution of the accurate draicmi/s which must always accompany every application for a patent, and they employ none but the mostellicientdiauglitsmen. The best evidence of the manner in which Messrs. BkoWn, Coombs A Co.'s business is performed, is, that the“A»ti:K ic*n Artisan Patent Aoem y. ' during the three years of its existence, has been Hui inOft successful insLiMutn. of the kind ever established. The principal offices of Messrs. Brown. Coombs <t Co. arc 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 ms it-is within a stone's throw from the City Hull. All inventors temporarily so journing in the metropolis are invited to visit tliis cstablislitnenu I n|t lie majority of instance uo model or drawing of an invention will bo necessary on the first interview, as a mere oral description by the visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey such akiiowledgc Ofliis invention as will enable Mcesrs. Brown, Coombs A. Co. to definitely determine whethera mmdrine or process is now or old- paten table or not. The office hours are from 9a. m. tub r. H. Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co. are prepared to furnish to jiersons residing at a distance from New York— free of t liarge- re< il/e» opinions as to whether inventions contain any features of paten table novelty; to do this they simply require a sketch or rough model of the machine or other in vention that is supposed to be Hew, 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 front their own mature exper ience.but if an inventor desires to know, positively. Whether his incipient idea has ever beta cuibbdied in a machine or process al ready patented, his wisest course will be to have a preliminary cramuialioii made at the United States Patent office by Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co., who will make a s|secial searcli'timOng all the records of that institution, and then promptly forward a full and carefully written report as to the patentability of the invention nu tter examination. For this labor the small fee of |5 is payable in advance; and the lemittunee should be accompanied by a sketeh of the invention and a few lines of writing describing the same, and distinctly stating tluisc points of novelty with h the inventor desires to have protected by Letters- Patrnit Patents for new and useful inventions are now granted foi the term of skvbnte kn tsars The first instalment olj.be Government toe is sl3. which sum -together with fifty cents revenue stamp tax on the power oi-attorney—is payable in advance, ou applying for the patent; and f -tl additional are due to tin-Government when the Letters Patent are allowed. The Agency fee is from $25 upward, ac cording to the labor involved; but m all cases our charges will be as moderate as possible in the pre paration of drawings and alt necessary documenta. This les is not i-ayable until after the application has been prepul cd and the case is ready to be sent to Washington. Messrs. Brown. Coombs &. Co. have ai» Washington so that all applica tions made through tlieni can have every necessary attention in their passage through the Patent Office Inventors applying for patents must, furnish models of their machines, whenever feasible, for the inspection of the Exantiners in the Patent Office ; but if the invention is n chemical oomposi 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 express. prepaid), together with tlie lirstinstalnien of the Government fee, to Messis Brown, Coombs A Co. When the model is email and light. it ctor be conveniently and cheaply sentby mail The model must not exceed one foot in any ofite dimens ions, unless it is of such a character that it fit im practicable. Patents, except those for design*, are grunted on equal terms to citizens and all foreigners, except inhabitants of Canada and some others of the British American Provinces. Besides patents or now and usefui inventions, there are also patent* for ueaigaß.

ALMOST Z EVERY CASE CURED WITH PAIN KILIiEIL o— d • Read the following letter from Rev. R. Telford. Missiomiry in China, now , visiting his home in Pennsylvania: AVabhinoton, Pa., Juiib2s, 186li. ! Messrs. Perry Davis & Hou, Providence, R. I.: Dear Sirs-During a residence of some ten years as n Missionary in Siam and Cltinu, I found i your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable . remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera. In administering the medicine, I found it most elfectnul to give u teuspoonfnl of Pain Killer in a ' gill of het water sweetened with sugar; then, after about, fifteen minutes, begin to give a table spoonful ot the same mixture every minute until relief was obtained. Apply hot. applications to ' the extremities. Bathe tho Btomucu with Pain . Killer, clear and rub the limbs briskly. Ot llmibo wlio hud the cholera, and took the medicine faith fully in the way stated above, eight out of ten recovered. Yours, truly, R T'ELFOBD. If au attack with Iliarriitßa, Dysentery, or Cramp Colic, don't ih lay tire use -ot the Pain Killer. Sold by all medicine dealers Prit'r, ”3 cents, 511 cents, and $1 per bottle. Manhattan, Kansas, April 17, IB6l>. Geullcmcn— * • -1 want to .say a little more about, the Pain Killer. I consider it ft very valuable medicine, mid always keep it on hnira. 1 have travelled a good deal suiee 1 have been in Kansas, and never willioutr taking it with me, Tn my practice f used it freely for the Asiatic Cholera, in 1849, and with better success than any other niedifine; I also Used it here for cholera in ISJS, with the same goad result. Truly, yottta, ’ A. HUNTING, M. D. SwATb, China. Choleta! * * * I regret, to say that'the cholera lias prevailed here of late to a fearful extent. For tlie last three Weeks, from teu to fifty or sixty fatal cases each day Ims been re ported. I snould add that the Pain Killer, sent recently from the Mission House, has been used with eonsiderable success during this epidemic. If taken in reason is generally effecteat in cheek ilfg tlie thsease. Rev. CHARGES HARDINIG, Shoiapore, India. [From tlie Portland Summer Complaint and Dysentery. Bowel complaints seem just now to be the prevailing element, and any medicine that fa every where acceptable,' aud that is reliable, is a very desirable acquisition. From what we have seen, heard, aud i-xporienceil, we believe Davis' Pain Killer is this desideratum. For tho best method of using it, we quote from the directions: “For common bowel complaints, give one tea spoonful in a gill of new milk nnd molasses, in i equal part*, stirred well together; lessen the dose I for children, according to the age. If the pain lie i severe, bathe the bowels and back with the uiedi . cine. This mode of treatment in good in case* of i t,he cholera morbus, sudden stoppages, etc. Re - peat, the dore every honr. “The quickest way I ever saw the dysentery r cured was by taking one rpoogful of the Pain i Killer in one gill of milk and ni'dasses stirred i well together and drank hot. at the same-time : bathing the bowels freely with medicine. Let , the dose be repeated every honr until the patient s is relieved." If every person who has reason to fear tens disease would provide themselves with a battle r of this medicine, and use as occasion required, we believe a great amotuit of siirteriug and sickness would be saved. j(42—2ni Special Notice. g.
