ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS . rriHE leading feature of this Company is , that it investigates JL the merit of any invention submitted to it , by the aid of scientific and practical men , selected with special regard to their qualifications , as impartial judges . Such iaventions as are approved are patented or registered * and manufactured by the Company , for sale , on a scale sufficient to establish their value , without cost to the inventor , who will share , under agreement , in all profits arising therefrom . As an earnest Xtf these intentions , the Managing : Committee have secured a long lease , on most advantageous terms , of extensive premises , containing a spacious manufactory , provided with suitable plant , where models can be made and tried , and patented articles manufactured tor Valuable patents , already arranged for , are now being so manufactured , at a nett jw-ofit of 309 per cent . ; while several very promising inventions are under consideration . The advantages thus enumerated justify the Directors in recommending the undertaking to the notice of small capitalists , as an investment weil Worthy their special consideration . That the laxgemass of inventors are unable to carry out their designs , is a fact patent to most practical observers . It is equally true that a great number of cases only require the judgment and . kindly assistance of scientific andpraeticttl men to render them productive of immense public benefit . It is incontrovertible that oub national importance and wealth have been more promoted by inventors than by any other class of men . Arkwright , Watt , Cort , Stephenson , and others scarcely less enunent , have produced an amount of wealth almost beyond calculation , though their inventions were received at first with . coolness ana incredulity . In short , all the improvements for our convenience and comfort , dating from a state of barbarity to one of high civilisation , are . but the . cumulative results of inventive ingenuity . . - ' ¦¦ ¦ It must not be overlooked by the Shareholder that a patent gives an exclusive trade with the customers © f the world , ami that this Company will possess In no common degree such advantages as will , on the average , be immensely productive , and ensure a dividend that may surprise , and must satisfy all investors . Applications for Shares , and full Prospectuses giving the fullest information , to be made personally , or by Letter , to the Secretary , at the Ofllces , as above .
