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 jjk ■he ’iaking exclusive watch right dials to not make only watch sold ■Rials by that process, hut he also Isold to a separate company the ex | elusive making right enameled to use signs the under process the in <|me t|rer patent.

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, tj le audience forget the incident, But a g °f a j n that penetrating voice cl .; G( j 0 « ne owes me $3 cold cash ,» Advancing to the edge of the platfornp General Sheridan in a con f 1( j en tial tone said: “Yes.

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.
