No. 14580.—6th March, 1902.—THE MUTUAL BENEFIT
BONUS COMPANY, LIMITED, of 80, Bathurst Street, Sydney,
New South Wales (assignees of John Thomas and John
Callaghan, both of Sydney aforesaid). A new or improved
trade coupon, and an improved method of advertising.

Extract from Specification.—The trade coupon the subject
of this invention carries out a system of discount coupons,
at a stated value, received by a customer from any one
trader, being exchanged for cash, or received as cash by the
trader giving the same, when the coupons shall have reached
a minimum number. In carrying out our invention we
divide the coupon into two parts or divisions, one bearing
thereon the name of the system, as the words “The Mutual
Benefit Bonus System,” a statement of the percentage dis-
count on purchases receivable from the trader, and the value
of the purchase, with or without a trade mark or device
representing the system, or that of the company working
the same, and in the other part or division the name and
address of the trader or firm issuing the coupon, with or
without the trade mark of such firm or the portrait of the
trader. Such division of the coupon into two parts may
take different forms or assume different devices. The
coupon may consist of two separate panels, both being
rectangular, or one being irregular in shape; or one part
may represent a circle within a rectangular panel, or vice
versa; or both parts may be circular in form, or one part
may represent a border enclosing the other part. The
coupon would, however, be in accordance with our in-
vention if bearing thereon such words as aforesaid repre-
senting the system, and the name and address of the trader
or firm issuing the coupon, with or without a trade mark or
portrait, combined in one part, with dividing lines, or
practically divided by print in different type without such
distinct divisions as aforesaid. The back of the coupon may
also have advertising matter printed thereon.
Claims.—(1.) The new or improved trade coupon de-
scribed. (2.) The new method of advertising described.
(3.) A trade coupon designed to carry out a system of cash
discount on purchases made at intervals from a trader,
combined with the advertisement of the trader, substantially
as described.

mondville, Quebec, Canada, Farmer. Improvements in milk-
aerator.

Claims.—(1.) In a milk-agitator, a supporting frame
adapted to be placed on a milk-vessel, a horizontally
vibrating paddle carried by said frame, and a motor-mechan-
ism for driving said paddle, in combination with a pivoted
counterpoise for said paddle adapted to be inverted in
position and catch in the supporting frame at its
free end, to be used as a handle. (2.) In a milk-
agitator, a spring motor, a lever vibrating in a horizontal
plane and driven by said motor, and a paddle adapted
to agitate the milk, suspended from said lever. (3.) In a
milk-agitator, a supporting frame adapted to rest on and
cover a milk-vessel, a motor-driven shaft carrying a pallet-
