RESPECTING THE SALE OF PATENTS.

"We are informed by* Henry Hughes (A. 11. Holusiup, manager;, patent agent, of 183 Herefordstreet, OJiristcnureii, that the firm is often asked iio interest-themselves-in inventions apart from their professional capacity as advisers and inventors..' ■ A reputable patent agent cannot, however, interest himselt commercially iu an invention. He must be strictly impartial, and when his ' duties as to the soliciting of patents are over he must not be identified in a business or trading way with patents. But what he can do, and wnat Henry Hughes' firm is doing, is to bring patentees into | touch with proiier persons who will take the patent* to England and AmeI riea and dispose of it there on behalf of the patentee. In this way inventors wilf benefit, and the firm will have I the satisfaction of seeing clients doing well. The New Zealand patent can always be disposed of locally, and this is preferable .to selling in 'London. Foi f >i'urther particulars, apply Henry HiighesivPS&K.. Holdship, manager), IS3 Hereford street,, Christchurcb, or. J. E. S.v Jackson, Stafford street, Timnru, agent -for-Henry.. Hughes. ...
