The policy that Laurier stole from the Conservatives isn’t a bad one, but under his management it cost 77 million a year to run it instead of 38 millions under the Conservatives. Some one is mean enough to say that Mr. Miller has been trying to en- gage a Conservative Piper to help him to make a noise at his election meet- ings.

In addition to giving a summary of the law and practice relating to patent matters; the book contains a large number of court decisions relating to patent law both in Canada, United States and other countries, and much interesting matter not to be found elsewhere. The book is issued to an- swer questions of frequent occurrence relating to patents and inventions, and will be of great service to manu- facturers and inventors. The reason for patent monopoly; possibility of secret use of an inven- tion; nature and policy of patents; time required to procure a patent and the course and treatment of an appli- cation in the patent office are interest~ ingly discussed in a. recent publication issued by Messrs. Marion Marion, Patent Solicitors of Montreal, and called “The Inventor’s Adviser.” A valuable invention, when properly protected by Letters Patent, procured by qualified technical experts, means a fortune to its lucky owner, but the same invention patented by unskillful persons may be practically of no value because of failure to properly protect the essential features of novelty which ‘ are of most value. frequently puzzled to know just how to proceed to protect their inventions and much valuable time is lost in ac- quiring information required. There is probably no profession in which technical questions are of such frequent greater care should be exercised before deciding upon a course of action. _ r-â€" son, judging from some references made in regard to it.
