Subsequent orders for castings of tbe same patterns Ore execute^, 'more cheaply became the pattern* are ready made. Sometimes the fotmdryowns the patterns and supplies duplicates to all customers, but in many cases owners of buildings prefer to own their own patterns, so that no other building may look like theirs. The preservation and duplication of patterns is a feature and source of great profit in many manufacturing opera tions. It is a characteristic of all kinds of printing. The type founder procures matrices of various fonts of type at great cost, but having once secured his mold he can-go on producing any number of ' duplicates at trifling cost. The first cost of the mold is the main C06t, compared with which the cost of metal and casting is trifling. The same is true of all pro cessed of printing pictures. The wood engraving, the lithographic atone, tbe steel plate, all cost much at the outset, but, being once produced, "they may be duplicated by various pro- . oesses at comparatively trifling cost Thus a picture may be sold for a profit at a penny, although to produce the first one may have cost thousands of dollars. GOVERNMENTAL PATTERNS. The application of duplicating proces ses to the building trade has worked an industrial revolution. It is true that one remit is ts produce hnildings much alike. The designs for doom, windows, stairways, stoops, vestibules, towers, locks, , bolts, mantels, sideboards, pier glasses, cornices, and, in fact, all parts of a building are used over and over again, and the cost of building is there fore mnch cheapened. The fact is that many parts of buildings may be pur chased ready made and in any desired quantities, and buildings constructed of such material are put np very cheaply. Gut wben-new designs are needed, odd shapes, fancy styles, novel' ornamenta tion, the cost is greatly increased. Before the war all the paper money in the United States wa# printed by private companies, who owned all tbe plates and patterns. Even tbe United States gov ernment did not own the plates from which its notes were printed, and in one famous caso the counterfeiter, by subter fuge, procured from them private parties, for a nominally honest purpose, the use of the devices used in printing a United Qtstes treasury note; and the devices thus fraudulently obtained were actual ly used to produce a spurious treasury note, which was in many respects an ex act duplicate of tbe original. That risk led to the adoption of a new plan by which, when the .government got any notes printed, tbe contractors were com pelled to surrender all the'designs, pat terns, die* and pistes naed to produce the issue, so that they could not by any possibility be used for any hot legiti- mite ptupoMSe Ultimately that led to the establish ment of the . bureau o( tagraving and printing, and tbe government now con trols all the patterns of its paper money I in the same way that it controls the dies of its metal coinage. The expense of steel engruriugJgaogreat,taaiHM^M by duplicating and using/the HUM de sign again and again that it is made profitable to use such beautiful designs as are need in commercial work, as notes, bonds, bills of exchange, etc. . ABOUT DUPLICATES. The pattern room of a great machine shop or locomotive works or engine builder contains the accumulation of yean of Improvement and invention. As a machine Is developed and changed the patterns are altered and used over and over again. To prodnoe the patterns new every tune a new machine is wanted would require great expense. Apmgrtn a pattern shop is therefore a great calam ity, far it. destroys patterns that can hardly be replaced. It often happens that one spoon or a fork cf an old set is lost or stolen. If the silversmith has preserved the die a new spoon or fork may be made at trifling cost But if a new die has to be eat, the expense is very great 5 There are a thousand and one ways of using the same pattern for duplication in various branches of industry. The moat beautiful products of the sculptor’s art are duplicated In plaster. The mod- era parlor stove is a marvel of tbe um of Thn Colored Tnothnrs Moody. A colored teachers’ institute has been organized for Sumter county, as was or dered by the county board of educa tion. Miles Barnett su elected president, Laura A. Powell secretary, and G. W. F. Phillips treasurer. Officers being elected, the teacher* who were present were enrolled as members and a retolu- it is only Uon was passedaikigg all the teachers in the county to attend the institute. Next oams a vote of thank* to the eonnty board of education for it* kind ness to the colored teachers, after wbleh the meeting adjourned to meet at Phillips’ hall July 18. ots of things are stamped. All kinds of brass and tin ware—pots, pans, ket tles, ash cans, waiters, dishes and the thousand article* of domestic use that # are made from metals—go through the stamping machine. The very best talent is therefor* Med to produo* tbe original patterns. Sometimes artists of very high repute, who would be very much averse to have it known that they do purely commercial work, are tempted to fur nish designs or pictures for advertising purposes, and occasionally they are so good that their excellence betrays tho author. Stealing patterns is one of tho unpun ished crimes of the age. When a great firm of American jewelers showed at tho Paris exposition ah entirely novel set of jewelry inado to imitate tho rarest and most exquisitely formed and colored or chids, the Frenchmen stole the idea at once and had copies out in a few weeks. —New York Sun.
