The question as to the holder of the 8 oldest patent ill this country has brought out from the heirs of Joseph Joncks some additional facts which tend to : show that he was the first inventor in j this country. Patent* granted from the sovereign power of England for land, water and other privilege* were not un- • common in early colonial time*. Joseph Jenck* of Lynn, Mas*., a number of year* previous to receiving a patent for an invention of a scythe had been t granted one for “an application of wa j ter power to mills. ’’ Biographical note* . state that Mr. Jenck* introduced to th* • Massachusetts ooleny the idea of pa tent -1 lug inventions, and that he might pro; tact end Introduce hi* ideas *eems to ' have been a reason for coming to the new country, The gras* scythe patented in 1653 was perhapa the most valuable ’ of bls invention* The Improvement I over the old English scythe, with its t short, thick blade, like a bush scythe, i consisted in lengtherflng the blade, making it thinner andweldinga square - bar at the back and strengthening it Today this scythe, practically unchang r ed, is used in Europe and America. The . patent was withheld from Mr. Janeks j for nine year*, a* It was thought to be ’ too valuable to be monopolized.—Hart | ford Conran t.

I _r ' ' in i .i n - r.fcuawi The Greatest Ever Known. _the — MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE CD. "‘"“of'ilKW YORK. Breaks The Dividend Record. It has always held the record securely, but the claim paid by the compa ny upon a policy issued to Mr. Mark of which are given here, shows that THE MUTUAL LIFE has in stktace eclipsed all previoue dividend results: Mr. Banks was insured for The dividends amounted to .... Paid to the estate ......fITAfiMO How does this happen? Mr. Bank* paid all the premiums in cash, ana he did this for fifty-tour years. He did not utilize any portion of the divi dends in payment of premiums, but permitted the Company to invest these for his benefit. Here are the particulars: Policy No. 1,233. Issued March 5,1845. Amonlf Age 40. Annual premium, $l6O. Life Plan. Original insurance in 1845, Dividend additions paid in 1898, Amount of death claim 54 Premiums paid by insured • Realized to estate over premiums paid SB.BBB 00 Being nearly equal to a return of all the premiums paid with two and a halt (W per cent, compound interest per annum, with insurance increasing annually irom fo.wv at age 40, to $17,028 at age 94. The dividend additions paid to the estate were 139 per cent, of all the premium* paid for the insurance. Mr. Mark Banks was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings Bank, and died at the good old age of ninety-four. He appreciated the power of compound interest, and his wisdom is exemplified by the result of his method of investment—a result that has never been equalled by a policy holder in any other company in the world.
