WHAT IT SAYS.
Some Financial and Social Views
of a Well Posted New York
. House.
1
FRIDAY, June 28, 1893-Clapp &
Co's weekly letter says :
That-The undeveloped pro
blems of humanity appeal power
ly to all constructive instincts,
the fact that vessels carrying
'e British flag cleared in 1892
rom United States " ports a ton
nage four times as great as that of
American vessels on all our rivers,
lakes, and harbors, suggest im
perative demand for a revival of
our American merchant marine.
That-The South appears"
gridironed with railroads, that
start howhere and .end nowhere,
and unless constructive, ] con
centrating^ and consolidating pro
cesses can go on, they may pos
sibly go into liquidation and prove
. a blanket on all efforts to reinstate
^ finances.
That-It is too early for es
timates of the cotton erop to be
of value, but if present crop
estimate of 7,150,000 bales is
verified, 9 cent cotton may seem
cheap in October.
That-The bulls' argument of a
-10 per cent, shortage in the world's
crop of wheat may have sufficient
merit to offset financial pressure
on the carriers of large stocks in
sight in America, and wheat may
& follow the course of cotton which
> was apparently in a- similar posi
tion about a year ago.
That-Vigorous selling of Octo
ber, November and January
provisions may reduce the bull
clique's nerve, and release their
hold on values.
That-It is said 8 cents cash
last yearrepresented the money in
every dollar's worth of business
done, and 92 cents, represented the
credit used. We believe there ie
no reason to think there is
any less money now, but being at
a loss to estimate the depreciation
in credit we cannot well predict
future prices.
Yours truly, '

A naturalist's paper relates an
interesting instance of a toad's
cunning. A brood of chickens was
fed with moistened meal in sau
cers, and when the dough soured
a little it attracted large numbers
of flies. An observant toad had
evidently noticed this, and every
day toward evening he would make
his appearance in the yurd, hop to
a Va?c^c?4iiif3-in--- and - rolL-ovar.
over until he . was covered with
meal, having done which he await
ed developments. The flie3, en
ticed by the smell, soon swarmed
around the scheming batrechian,
and whenever one passed within
two inches or so of his nose his
tongue darted out and the fly dis
appeared. The plan worked so well
that the toad made a regular busi
ness of it.
A Western editor apologizes to
his readers somewhat after this
fashion : "We expected to have a
death and a marriage to .publish
this week, but a violent storm
prevented the wedding and, the
doctor being taken sick himself,
the patient recovered, and we are
accordingly cheated out of both."
In the United States there are,
it is said, but three women who
own, publish, and edit political
newspapers. One of the three is
Mrs. Mary Virginia Proctor of
Lebanon. "?., editor, propietor and
business manager of the Lebanon
Patriot, the Democratic organ of
Warren County.

Elmer James committed suicide
i n'a peculiar way, at Atlantic City
N. J., on Monday. He tied weights
to his feet and jumped out of a
boat into the occean, sinking im
mediately.
Six brothers were standing un

stroke of lightning instantantly
killed four of them and seriously
injured the other two.

The Too Cute Opossum.
A railroad train on the West
Shore Railroad recently ran over
an opossum. The suicide occurred
directly in front of a small station.
How the little animal happened
to be caught was a mystery .which
was debated by the commuters
who gathered to catch an early
morning train. ; No satisfactory
explanation was evolved until an
old darky came along en route'to
work. When he saw the mangled
corpse his eyes began to bulge and
his lips to water.
"How did that 'possum get kill
|ed? uncle?" asked one of the by
tstanders.
"Why youse oughter know dat,"
I cried Uncle JToe. "You sees he was
comm* ober de tr ak and when he
sees de light of de engine he gets
scared arid he done goes and plays
'possum and pretends he is dead,
[and zipl along comes de engine
and he is dead fo' sure," and Uncle
Joe gathered up tho remnants and
carefully wrapped them in an old
newspaper, and went off softly
humming "When de corn is in de
tassel, den de'possums in de corn."
Whatever convenience may be
thought. to be in falsehood and dis
simulation, it is soon over ; but the
inconvenience of it is perpetual be
cause it brings a man under ever
lasting jealousy and suspicion so
that he is not believed when he
[speaks the troth, nor.trusted when
[perhaps he means honestly.

PATEN T S,
For lnventions]Procured^by the
PRESS CLAIM COMPANY,
Equal with the interest of those having claims against the Gov- j
ernment is that of INVENTORS, who often lose the benefit ef valua
ble inventions because of the incompetency or inattention of the at- j
torneys employed to obtain their patents. Too much care cannot be |
exercised in employing competent and reliable solicitors to procure
patents, for the value of a patent depends greatly, if not entirely, upon
the care and skill of the attorney.
With the view of protecting inventors from worthless or careless
attorneys,and of seeing that inventions are well protected by valid)
patents, THE PRESS CLAIMS COMPANY has retained counsel
expert in patent practice, and is therefore prepared to
Obtain Patents, Conduct Interferences, Make Special Examinations, j
Prosecute Rejected Cases, Register Trade-Marks
. and Copyrights, Render Opinions as to Scope
and Validity of Patents, Prosecute and
Defend Infringement Suits, etc.
If you have an invention on hand, send THE PRESS CLAIMS
[COMPANY a sketch or photograph thereof, together with a brief de
scription of the important features, and you will at once be advised
as to the best course to pursue. Models are not necessary
unless the invention is of a complicated nature. If others are infring
ing on your rights, or if you are charged with infringement by others,
submit the matter to us for a reliable OPINION before acting on the
matter.
