To make, to Kv to sell are
the only ways i n, fa-an invention

The patentee jfl^not cU Bf l he wjjhes, sit
down and not use the in

patented from ren'king or using or selling the
’ thing. If any one else
makes parent j uses or sells the subject of

patentee infringement an injunction and against fur- of

Each of these three rights—to
make, ;to use and to sell—is a sep
arate monopoly and may, by sold proper
instruments, be granted or sep
arately. For instance, a patentee of
a machine could grant to a manu
facturer the exclusive right to make
the machines for him (of course un
der proper restrictions as to price,
etc.), "infringer and the^BjIijiifacturer would
~ i>e an if he used the ma
chines or sold them to others. The
patentee could then grant to a job
ber the exclusive right to sell the
machines (reserving proper compen
sation to himself, such ns a percent
age of the profits), and the jobber
would be an infringer if lie either
made or used the machine. The
exclusive right to use the machines
could then he granted to a given
consumer, who in turn would have
no right to make or sell the ma
chines.
The exclusive right to use an in
vention for each of several given
purposes can be separately sold. For
i instance, a patentee of a process for

A Thoughtful Officer. i
Some years ago a battery of artil- j

flaw. The officer in charge, not car
ing to risk half a dozen valuable
lives, inquired, “Sergeant, have, we
any time expired men here?” “Yes,
sir,” answered the sergeant. “John
Jackson has just completed his

thoughtful officer, “John Jackson

A Quick Witted Orator Who Was
Equal to the Occasion.
An orator who was equal to an
emergency was the late George A.
Sheridan, who was a noted “spell
binder” often engaged by the Be
publican national committee. At a
meeting he was addressing in a
town near New York he was intro
duced by a Mr. O’Brien, the chair
man, in most flattering terms. In
order to reciprocate Mr. Sheridan
paid a ‘glowing tribute to the ster
ling qualities of the chairman and
wound up the eulogy by asserting
that no man could say Mr. O’Brien
owed him a cent,
“He owes mo $3!” came a keen
Celtic voice from the rcaf of the
audience.
It was almost a solar plexus blow
for the orator, and the audience
started to laugh and jeer. Rallying,
the speaker said: “Don’t be alarm
ed, good friends. I will answer that
presently.” This assertion was
g a j n time and if possible have,

But a g °f a j n that penetrating voice

Oak and Mistletoe,
A reviewer in the Outlook Tebukes
an American writer for wondering
who!her there is anv “natural con
meet ion” between the oak and the
mistletoe, seeing how constantly
they are associated. “In Cheat
Britain,” says the reviewer, ‘ the
oak jg one of the trees on which the
mistletoe notoriously does not
grow.” And it is true that the Eng
lish child learns in an early lesson
of the honor in which the Druids
held a mistletoe that by rare chance
did grow on an oak. But the re
viewed book, being American, is
amply round the justified. Lick observatory The Hills that Cali- sur
in
fornia and that bear its domes on
their highest summit are entirely
covered with oaks, and it is not too
much to say that every oak carries
a bunch or bunches of mistletoe.—
London Chronicle.
She Knew About Peter.
A visiting pastor was examining
the Sunday school of a Germantown
church a few Sundays ago and had
asked the class just in front of him
if any member of it could tell any
thing about the Apostle Peter. A
little girl with a precocious face
raised her hand. “Come up here,
my little lady,” said the minister,
“I am much gratified to see that
you have remembered your lesson.
Now tell tho school what you know
about Peter.” Tho little tot was
quite willing to show off her knowl
edge and commenced, “Peter, Peter,
pumpkin eater, had a wife and
couldn’t keep her; put her in a”—
The school never heard whero hc
put her on account of the general
uproar.—Philadelphia Record.
