PATENTS AND COPYRIGHTS.

Applications for Patents. Applications for letters patent must be made to the Commissioner of Patents, and must be signed by the inventors. A complete application comprises the first fee of $15, a petition, specification and oath, and drawings, model or specimen when required. The petition, specification and oath must be in the English language. The applicant is required to furnish a drawing of

his invention whenever the nature of the case admits of it. A model is required or admitted as a part of the application only when, on examination of the case, the primary examiner finds it necessary or useful.

The specification and claim must be signed by the inventor and attested by two witnesses.

The oath made is that the inventor applying believes himself to be the original and first discoverer of the art, machine, manufacture, composition, or improvement; that he does not believe or know that it was ever before known or used, and the country of which he is a citizen or subject. This oath may be made before any duly authorized

person in the United States, or if the applicant is in a foreign country, before any minister, charge d' affaires, consul, or commercial agent, holding a commission under the government of the United States.

Drawings must be artistically executed. The Patent Office will make necessary corrections at the applicant's option and cost. The office will furnish the drawings at cost for applicants who desire that assistance.

A working model is often desirable. Models filed as exhibits in contested cases may be returned to the parties at their expense. If not claimed within a reasonable time they may be disposed of. Applications filed are classified according to the various arts, and are taken up for examination in regular order of filing, those in the same class of invention being examined and disposed of, as far as practicable, in the order in which the respective applications are completed. Upon the rejection of an application the examiner must cite the best references at his command. If domestic patents be cited, their dates and numbers, the names of the patentees, and the classes of invention are stated. The applicant may amend before or after the first rejection or action, and he may amend as often as the examiner presents new reasons for rejection, showing how amendments avoid references and objections. A patent for a design is granted for three and a half, seven, or fourteen years.

A reissue is granted to the original patentee when the original patent is inoperative on account of a defective specification

Provisions are made for hearings before the commissioner, and interviews with examiners.

Any citizen of the United States who has made a new invention or discovery and desires further time to mature the same may, on payment of a fee of $10, file in the patent office a caveat setting forth the object and the distinguishing characteristics of the invention, and praying protection of his right until he shall have matured his invention. Such caveat is operative for one year All fees are payable in advance, according to the following schedule: Fling original application, $15; issuing of patent, $20; designs (31⁄2 years), $10; designs (7 years), $15; designs (14 years), $30, caveats (each), $10; reissue, $30; filing disclaimer (each), $10.
