"CONCRETE' COTWTRY RESIDENCES" is the title of a new book just published by the Atlas Portland Cement Co. This book contains about 90 photographs and 

 floor'plans illustrating numerous styles of concrete houses, and should be of great value to those who are about to build. It has been collated for the purpose of showing prospec- 

 tive house-builders the many advantages to be derived from a concrete dwelling. A copy of this book (size 10x12 in.) will be sent, charges paid, upon receipt of $1.00. Address

PATENTS 



THE WEALTH OF NATIONS 



A 



PATENT gives you an exclusive right to your in- 

 vention for a term of seventeen years. You can 

 sell, lease, mortgage it, assign portions of it, and 

 grant licenses to manufacture under it. Our Patent 

 system is responsible for much of our industrial 

 progress and our success in competing in the markets of the 

 world. The value of a successful Patent is in no degree 

 commensurate with the almost nominal cost of obtaining it. 

 In order to obtain a Patent it is necessary to employ a Patent 

 Attorney to prepare the specifications and draw the claims. 

 This is a special branch of the legal profession which 

 can only be conducted successfully by experts. For nearly 

 sixty years we have acted as solicitors for thousands of 

 clients in all parts of the world. Our vast experience en- 

 ables us to prepare and prosecute Patent cases and Trade 

 Marks at a minimum of expense. Our work is of one 

 quality and the rates are the same to rich and poor. Our 

 unbiased opinion freely given. We are happy to consult 

 with you in person or by letter as to the probable 

 patentability of your invention.
