Have you thought out some improvement in tools or machines you are in the habit of using, or in other articles in daily use? Perhaps you have thought of some labor-saving device, some new process of value, or have conceived a new design in architecture, ornaments or ornamental work, textile fabrics, wall papers, pottery, silverware, cast articles such as type, stoves, etc. You may have a compound or composition, or other goods, wares, or merchandise, that you should not market without a distinctive trade-mark. You may have a musical composition, book, chart, map, dramatic work, engraving, cut, print, drawing, photograph, painting, etc., the copyright of which should be preserved to yourself. If so, what have you done to protect your idea, and secure the pecuniary benefit derivable therefrom?
