SBLDEN V. STOCKWELL SELF-LIGHTING GAS-BUBNER 00. 393 �of the repeating match, nor to the use of a tape or wick saturated with stear- ine, as any suitable material may be employed, both for igniting the wick or tape, and saturating the same, such as will adapt it to be readily ignited ; nor do I wish to be limited to the specifie form of case showu, nor to the partic- ular construction and arrangement of the devices for feeding and igniting the repeating match ; the form and arrangement shown being such, however, as to adapt the lighter to general use, and constituting a convenient and compact form for carrying in the pocket." �The claims involved in this suit are the first five, which are as fol- lows: �"(1) In a pocket lighting device, a magazine, case, or shell for inclosing the strip or coil of repeating match, provided with a lip or nose-piece, projected beyond the outlet opening or passage for the match, and serving to uphold the match against the action of the igniting device. (2) In a pocket lighting device, a magazine, case, or shell for containing a repeating match, provided with a lip or nose-piece, substantially as described, for upholding the match, ~ and an igniting device between which and the lip or nose-piece the match is ignited. (3) In a pocket lighting device, a magazine, case, or shell for con- taining the strip or coil of repeating match, provided with an outlet, opening, or passage for said match, and a lip or nose-piece projected beyond said outlet on a line parallel, or nearly so, with the line of feed of the match. (4) In a pocket lighting device, a magazine, case, or shell, with a lip or nose-piece for upholding the repeating match against the action of the igniting device, and over which the match is fed outward, in combination with an igniting device arranged parallel, or nearly so, with the duct or passage throngh which the wick or match passes to be ignited. (5) In a pocket lighting device, the com- bination of a magazine, case, or shell for euclosing a strip or coil of repeating match; a nose-piece extending beyond the outlet therefor in the magazine, case, or shell ; a permanently attached igniter, acting in conjunction with said nose-piece, to efEect the ignition of the repeating match; and a device for feed- ing the repeating match over the nose-piece." �One of the defenoes set up in the answer is that No. 8,490 is for another and different invention from any covered by or described in No. 50,860, or its drawings or specification. The specification of No. 50,860 was as follows: �" Be it khown that we. Philos B. Tyler and William M. Chandler, of Spiing- field, in the state of Massachusetts, and L. F. Standish, of Chipcopee Falls, in the state of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and usef ul improve- ments in friction matches and apparatus for using them, and we do hereby declare that the following is a f ull, clear, and exact description thereof, refer- ence being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specifica- tion, in which figure 1 is a face view of a continuons match, figure 2 a like View of a repeating match, figure 3 a longitudinal section of a repeating match, figure 3a another longitudinal section of a repeating match, (both sections drawn on a large scale,) figure 4 a side view, and figure 5 a section of one form of apparatus for using such matches, and figures 6 and 7 like ��� �
