The Australian Patent Law
Australia has now a federal patent
law, and applications for p*ents will
hereafter have to be filed and dealt
with at the central patent office,
Rlalto building, Melbourne. The law
is, to u great extent, based on tho
British system, with the notable ad-
dition that the official ftaff, before is-
suing a patent, must make an exam-
ination to ascertain whether the In-
vention deacrlbed has been previous-
ly patented op a patent applied for
In any of the states composing the
federation. Patents will be granted
for fourteen years, and will be sub-
ject mainly to the usual conditions
of British and Australian patents,
with the exception that if one claim
is found by a court to be invalid it
shall not affect the validity of any
other claim or of the patent so far
as it relates to any valid claim.
Dow a Wutnan Freed from TrotiblM
That 11ati Made I.lf® Wretched fur
Many Tears.
Tlie immediate causes of bendache.
vary, but most of them couie from poor
or poisoned blood. Iu ftIIU'una the blood
Is icauty or thin; tlie nerve, are imper-
fectly nourished and paiu is the w«y in
wliiuli they express their weakuess. In
colds the blood absorbs poison from the
mucous surface., aud the poisou irritates
the nerves aud produces pain. In rheu-
matism, malaria aud the grip, the poison
iu the blood produces like discomfort. In
indigestion the gases from the impure
matter kept iu the system affect the
blood in the same way.
The ordiuary headache-enres at best
give only teiu[iorary relief. They deaden
Ihe pain but do not drive the poison out
of the blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
on the contrary thoroughly renew the
blood aud the pain disappears perma-
nently. Women iu particular have found
these pills an unfailing relief iu head-
aches caused by auseiuia.
Miss Stella Blocker recently said: "Dr.
Williams' Piuk Pills did me a great deal
of good. I had headache nearly all the
time. After I had taken three boxes at
these pills I became entirely well."
"How long hud you sufferod?" she
Was asked.
"For several years. I can't tell tho
exaot date when my illness began for it
came on by slow degress. I had been
going down hill for many yenrs."
" Did you have any other ailments?"
" I was very weak aud sometimes I had
fever. My liver and kidneys were af-
fectod as well as my head."
" How did you come to take the rem-
edy that cured you?"
" I saw in a southern newspaper a
statement of some persou who was cured
of a like trouble by Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills. My physician hadn't done me nny
good, so I bought a box of these pills.
After I had taken one box I felt so much
better that I kept on until 1 became en-
tirely well."
Miss Blocker's homo is at Leander,
Louisiana. Dr.Williams' Pink Pills are
sold by all druggists. Besides headache
they cure neuralgia, sciatica, nervous
prostration, partial paralysis and rhea*
fciatism.

Investigation of the Packer®.
Very general Interest has been man-
ifested in the government Investiga-
tion now in progress into the mode of
conducting business by the large pack-
ers located in Chicago and elsewhere.
Much has been written upon the al-
leged Illegal and Improper modes of
business procedure connected with the
packing industry; but it seems that so
far no doflnite charge of any kind has
been sustained and no proof of illegal
or inequitable methods lias been dis-
closed to the public. While a wave of
severe criticism of this great indus-
trial interest is now passing over the
country it might be well to remember
that the packers have had as yet no
opportunity to make specific denial,
tho many indefinite charges of wrong-
doing having never been formulated
bo that a categorical answer could be
made.
The recent report of Commissioner
Garfield, which embodied the results
of an official investigation undertaken
by the Department of Commerce and
Labor of the United States, was a vin-
dication of the Western packers, but
this result having been unexpected at-
tempts In many quarters to discredit it
were made.
In view of the situation as It now
stands, however, attention may ptoper-
]y be called to a few facts that owing
to popular clamor are now being ap-
parently overlooked. Fair treatment
in this country has heretofore been ac-
corded to all citizens whose affairs as-
sume prominence in the public eye and
some of the facts that bear upon the
relation of the packers to the com-
merce of the country ma,v at this time
be briefly alluded to. It would he
difficult to estimate the benefits pained
by the farmers of the country insult-
ing from the energetic enterprise of
the packers, for whatever is of benefit
to ihe farmer is a gain to the entire
commerce of the country. And con-
nected with their continuous aggres-
sive work no feature perhaps has been
more important than their efforts in
seeking outlets all over the world for
the surplus products of the farmer.
Our total exports of agricultural pied-
ucts have gained but little In the past
twenty years, and leaving out corn,
the total of all other farm products
was far less In 1903 than in 1891. But
in packing house products there was
considerable gain during this period,
because an organized and powerful
force has been behind them seeking
new and broader markets.
Besides the benefits reaped by farm-
ers on account of the enterprise and
energy exercised by the packers in at-
taining commercial results by foreign
trade, the great development in the
manufacture of packing house by-prod-
ucts has added enormously to the
value of all live stock raised in Ihe
United States. The wast^ material of
twenty years ago. then an expense to
the packer, Is now converted Into ar-
ticles of great value, and. as an eco-
nomic fact, this must correspondingly
fncrease the value to the farmer of
every head of cattle marketed at the
numerous stockyards#of the country
Ix-t these facts be remembered while
now it Is bo popular to regard the
great packing Industry as deserving of
condemnation. At least it must be ad-
mitted that, so far, there is no ade-
quate reason for the almost unani-
mous howl that may be heard every-
where in the fare of the Garfield re-
port above alluded to which practical-
ly exonerates the packers from the ob-
scure and Indefinite charges that have
been for some time past made the sub-
ject of popular comment. — American

GOLDEN TFXT.-I pray for l-jin.—John 17
The Lor (in Prayer for Us. Christ's
Farewell Discourse to bis disciples
was ended. It closed with the tri-
umphant words, "Be of good cheer; I
have overcome the world." There Is
but one more thing to do; he will ex-
press In prayer his desires and long-
ings for them, as In a vision he sees
the storm and stress they are Boon to
enter. He foresaw his disciples like
sheep In the midst of wolves, like men
■tumbling In the valley of the shadow
of death, assailed by all the fiery darts
of the Adversary: perils, terrors, se-
ductions, persecutions, crises, dark-
ness. He looked down tho ages, and
bsw theae came dangers repeated
again and again.
Then he prayed for them and with
them, what may well be called "The
Lord's Prayer."
I. H1h Prayer that God and His Son
Should Be Giorifled—V. l.< There are
many wayB in which God is giorifled,
I. e., In which his glory Is manifested;
but the glory, aB shown In Jesus, is
the manifestation of his love and good-
ness and character, which was soon to
be revealed in Us greatness in the
cross, as the highest expression of
love, and as the means of salvation for
men (v. 4); but its rays shine brighter
and brighter as the world becomes
Christianized, and the complete bright-
ness of his glory will be seen by
angels and men, by heaven and earth,
when all men are brought Into the
kingdom of heaven, and all nations
shall Join is the song of Moses and the
I^mb. Then shall Jesus be seen as
King of kings and Lord of lords.
II. That His Disciples May Have
Eternal Life.—V. 3. Eternal life is
thai, life of the soul which endures,
which nothing can destroy In this
world or In the world to come, because
It la the life of God, th« life of heaven,
the life all were made to live.
III. That They May Know and Be-
lieve His Truth.—Vs. 6-8. That they
may accept Christ's word as the Word
of Ood, a revelation from heaven, tho
guide of their lives, the assurance that
Jesns Is the Savior, the Son of God.
This 1b essential to the life, the work,
nd the continuance of the church.
IV. That They May Have a Joyful
Light In Darkest Times.—V, 13. Jesus
keeps ever in view the dangers to
which his disciples will be exposed,
and the thick clouds of discourage-
ment which will envelop them and
Bhut out the sun.
V. That They May Be Kept from
the Evil—Vs. 15, 16. 15. "I pray not
that thou shouldest take them out of
ihe world." He would not have them
with him yet, nor would he have them
escape from the active, tempting
world; for (1) they were to be his rep-
resentatives on earth, to reflect his
character and teachings. They were
to be the world's Bible," to make
Christ's light shine over all the world,
like the reflectors of our lighthouses.
(2) They were needed in the world to
do Christ's work, to carry on bis king-
dom to success.
"But that thou sbouidest keep them
from the evil." We want to be deliv-
ered not only from the evil one, but
from all evil, of every kind. "The
evil" includes "not only all evil con-
3uct, but all evil influences, and all
evil ones."
How Are Disciples Kept from the
Evil? (1) By his Word, the truth (v.
17), which, Ailing the soul, keeps away
the desire of evil and the power of
evil. (2) By his Holy Spirit dwelling
in them. (3) By the discipline of re-
maining In this evil world and over-
coming It. (4) By earnest work for
Christ. Christians are safe in the
worst places so long as they are seek-
ing to redeem men from them.
16. "They are not of the world."
Their principles and teaching were op-
posed to the life, the customs, the
principles of the world, and were ac-
tive in overthrowing the world's
wrongs by the. word of Christ. Even
as I am not of the world." Their po-
sition was like his, and his relation to
the world would enable them to under-
stand theirs.
gl. That They May Be Made Holy.
—Vs. 17, 19. 17. "Sanctify them." In
order that his former petitions may be
answered, another step must be taken.
To be kept from the evil Is but a nega-
tive blessing when alone, and can not
itself be permanent, unless in addition
there is positive holiness. Sanctify
means set apart from all sinful use,
consecrate th< m as representatives of
Christ and to his work. "Through thy
truth," or "In the truth," as In R. V.
"Thy word is truth," "The 'truth,' the
sum of the Christian revelation, 'the
word of God,' at once embodied in
Christ and spoken hv him, is (as it
were) the element Into which the be-
liever is Introduced, and by which he
Is changed."—Westcott.
19. "I sanctify myeelf." I do what
1 ask for them, both as a means, an
example, and K motive.
VII. That They May Fulfil Their
Mission—Vs. 18. "As thou hast sent
ine Into the world." To save It from
sin. and build up a kingdom of holi-
ness. "Even so have I also sent them
Into the world." To fulfil the same
mission, to carry on the same work, to
preach the truth, to help the poor, to
relieve suffering, to lead men to God.
VIII. That They May All Be One —
Vs. 20-23. 20. "For them also which
Bliall" believe on me." Their mission
would bring many to believe on him.
He sees these "ten thousand times ten
thousand and thousands of thousands
of disciples as in a vision. He knew
that "the extension of the church im-
perils its unity."—Exp. Greek TeBt
He, therefore, prays for the whole
church for all time, In all places ' that
they all may be one" (v. 21), as he had
Just before prayed for the twelve that
they might ba one (v. II).
21. "As thou, Father, art In me,
and I in thee." "Not a merely moral
unity of disposition and purpose, but a
vital unity in which the members
share the life of one and the same
organization (see Rom. 12; 4, 5), A
mere agreement in opinion and aim
would not convince the world."—Cam
bridge Bible. Naturally from this unity
flowB a unity of purpose, of work, of
love, of spirK, of character. "That the
world may believe." The unity of the
church in the spirit of Christ will
quickly send the Gospel to every crea-
ture. The unity will be a proof to the
Ood, and the Christ whom they love
and serve.
22. "The glory which thou gavest
me." The glory of bis work, the manl
festal ion of his love, the success of his
mission (v. 21). "That they may be
one" in glory as in work and char-
acter. They are to be joint heirs with
Christ (Rom. 8:17). The oneness will
thus be complete.
23. "I in them, and thou in me."
The unity of the vine and its branches
See the last lesson. "That the world
may know." Recognize more fully
than when they "believed" (v. 21)
since now the unity was to be perfect,
and therefore its results more power
ful.
Christian Unity. — The Christian
unity, for which Jesus so earnestly
prayed, is absolutely essential to the
full success of the church. Real Chris-
tian unity can come only when Christ
is the head, and no one person or so-
ciety or committee assume headship
or control.
Unity and Organization. Organlza
tion of those who are seeking the same
purpose, and including «ily those pur-
poses, are of vast importance and pow
cr. But the moment they undertake
to force an outward unity, or any unity
beyond their own scope and work, the
forced unity of organization destroy
real unity. Several families may be
each a unity in itself, but If com'
pelled to all unite in one family in one
house, there would immediately arise
discords unbearable.
Illustration. One of the speakers in
the parliament of religions relates
legend, that "when Adam and Eve
were turned out of Eden, the earthly
paradise, au angel smashed the gates,
and the fragments flying over the
earth are the precious Btones." He
carries the legend further; he says
that "the precious stones were picked
up by the various religions and
philosophies, each claiming that hit
own fragment alone reflects the lighl
of heaven, aud Is the true material oi
which the paradise gates are made.
"Patience, my brother; In God's owe
time we shall all of us fit our frag
ments together and reconstruct the
gates of paradise."—Rev. Dr. H. Pe
reira Mendes. Every Christian soul,
every form of truth, every Christian
denomination, is a fragment, one ol
the precious stones of paradise. God
in his own time is bringing these
precious fragments together, and re-
constructing the Gates of Paradise.
In our country there are five chiel
forces making for Christian union;
The Young Men's Christian Assocla
lion, the Women's Christian Temper
anco Union, the International Sunday
School Lessons, our hymn-books, with
hymns from every denomination ol
Christians and every variety of Chris
tian experience, and last, but not least
tho Young People's Society of Chris
tlan Endeavor, all gathering up* tht
scattered jewels, and uniting there
again in the Gates of Paradise. Nc
I^imbeth articles, no papal encyclical
can begin to do as much as these flvt
are doing to bring the Chnrch intc
Christian union, into one great league
of every land and every race, undet
our one Master, Jesus Christ.

ferent pieceB (seventy-two others say)
of a violin, described in the Autocrat
of the Breakfast Table. It requires
many years to accomplish this result
and that is the reason why a violin in
creases in value with age.
IX. That They May Partake of Hi
Glory.—Vs. 24-26. 24. "I will." Not
now "I pray." "Be with me where 1
am." Share his destiny. "If children
then heirs." "Behold my glory." Be
cause they will thus be near him, anc
being his disciples, will share in the
glory according to their capacity.
26. "I have declared." R. V., "Made
known." "And will declare It." R. V
"Make It known." "The knowledge
and the love which imparts it beln(
alike inexhaustible, there is room foi
perpetual instruction through al
time."—Cambridge Bible. "Thy name.
"This phrase covers all that can be
known, thought, or spoken about him.
—Dr. Charles Taylor. It stands foi
himself, his attributes, character, na
ture, power, authority. "The lov<
wherewith thou hast loved me may be
in them." "This is the end and crow
of all. God's love to Christ rests the
pame upon his disciples, for they havi
Ihe spirit of Christ, are doing the wort
of Christ, are children of God, hli
younger brothers. This love should be
In them, manifested In all they do
guiding, inspiring, uplifting, trans
forming."

Should an emergency arise calling for
a decreased rate, the railroads or
shippers would have to appeal again
to the Commission, there being no
latitude allowed, whatever the cir-
cumstances. Hitherto a maximum
rate has been the rule, but no such
concession is made under the pro-
posed legislation.
One of the essential attributes to
grtiulne greatness is that a man
should remind his fellows of himself,
not some other.
Being out of a job soon gets to be a

CAHT. GRAHAM's CURE.
Sores on Face and Back—Tried Many
Doctors Without Succets—
Gives Thanks to
Cuticura.
Captain W. S. Graham, 1321 Eofl
St., Wheeling, W. Va., writing undei
date of June 14, '04, says: "1 am sr
grateful I want to thank God that a
friend recommended Cuticura Soai
and Ointment to me. I suffered for a
long time with sores on my face ana
back. Some doctors said I had blood
poison, and others that 1 had barbers
lfch. None of them did me any good,
but they all took my money. My
friends tell lac my skin now looks as
clear as a baby's, and I tell them all
that Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Olnt
ment did it."
At Christie's auction rooms, London,
the other day, a single Sevres vase,
after a two-minute contest, was
knocked down for 4,000 guineas, or
about $20,000. The vase, 16 3-4 inches
high, was painted by the faithful
Dodin in 1763, nine years after he
entered the SevreB factory, in which
he was to toil for forty more years.
The chief panel of the four which he
painted on the vase Is, a pastoral In
the manner of Lancret, and the great-
er portion of the body, base and cover
Is in the color of rich gros-blue. The
value put upon this single specimen
gives an idea of that of the superb
sets of Sevres vases In the Wallace
collection, many of which were pur-
chased for small sums by the Marquis
of Hertford. After the Bales in the
streets of Versailles there_ was a glut
of Sevres, and it is well known that In
many houses little care was taken of
the beautiful ware. The fine
am pies of Windsor and Buckingham
palace were purchased chiefly by
George IV. With regard, again,
the value of a set forming a perfect
garniture, It may be stated that the
Coventry vases, which brought 10,000
guineas in 1874 (and temporarily de-
clined to 8,000 guineas in the Goode
Bale, 1895) passed a few years ago
into a well known collection at
double this amount.

President a Rapid Reader.
President Roosevelt is a wonder-
fully rapid reader. His faculty for
speedily absorbing matters placed be-
fore him in written or printed form
surprises even his intimates. On one
occasion a congressman called with
statement and presented papers con-
nected therewith. The president con
tinued conversing the while he
glanced over the papers, which he
handed back In a minute or two, hav
lng extracted from them all the valu
able information.

MOST PROFITABLE
FARM INVESTMENT.
This is what the Cream Separator ha
proved to be. Twenty years of experi-
ence upon the part of
hundreds of thousands
of users in every coun-
try of the world bear
witness to the fact.
No one disputes it.
There never was a
better time to make
this all-important farm
investment than the
present. Butter is un-
precedentedly hign in Drice. It is most
desirable that none be left go to waste,
and that the quality be sucb sa to
command top prices.
If you have cream to separate you
cannot afford to delay this investment &
single day. If you haven't the ready
casn the machine will earn its cost while
you are paying for it.

COFFEE HEART
Very Plain in Some People.
A great many people go on suffer-
ing from annoying ailments for a long
time before they can get their own
consent to give up the indulgence
from which their trouble arises.
A gentleman In Brooklyn describes
his experience as follows:
"I became satisfied some months
ago that 1 owed the palpitation of the
heart, from which I suffered almost
daily, to the use of coffee (I had been
a coffee drinker for 30 years), but I
found it very hard to give up the bev-
erage.
"I realized that I must give up the
harmful indulgence in coffee but I
felt the necessity for a hot table
drink, and as tea is not to my liking. I
was at a loss for awhile what to do.
"One day 1 ran across a very sen-
sible and straightforward presenta-
tion of the claims of Postum Food
Coffee, and was so impressed thereby
that 1 concluded to give It a trial. My
experience with it was unsatisfactory
till I learned how it ought to be pre-
pared—by thorough boiling for not
less than 15 or 20 minutes. After I
learned that lesson there was no
trouble. Postum Food Coffee proved
to be a most palatable and satisfac-
tory hot beverage, and 1 have used It
ever since.
"The effect on my health has been
most salutary. It has completely
cured the heart palpitation from which
I used to suffer so much, particularly
after breakfast, &nd I never have a re-
turn of it except vhen I dine or lunch
away from home aad am compelled
to drink the old kind of coffee because
Postum is not served. I find that Pos-
tum Food Coffee cheers and invigor-
ates while It produces no harmful
stimulation." Name given by Postum
Co.. Battle Creek, Mich.
There's a reason.
Ten days' trial proves an eye open-
er to many.
