Covered by Letters Patent, infringement of ichich will be THIS Battery has been brought to a high state of perfection. Perfectly uni-form and reliable in action? Of faultless construction and beautiful ap-pearance. In these respects it is unapproached. Its electromotive force volts, and its internal resistance .5 of an ohm at the start, an 1 continues thesame until the zinc is consumed or solution exhausted. At this date, Oct. 1st,1891, it has been on the market for eleven years, and tens of thousands arenow in use throughout the length and breadth of the land. Cells put in usein t88i are still working, and working as well as at their start; nothing butthe zinc and the solution, costing but a few cents, ever having been renewed. In all porous-cup and other forms of batteries which require the periodicalrenewal of the negative element, the first cost of the cell is insignificant ascompared with the cost of the renewals. The sale of these perishable negative elements is
