The tariff thus payable must be deposited all at once for the entire number of years for which the patent is applied for, or it must be shown that the deposit has been made, otherwise the petition will be laid aside at once, without any official treatment of it.

A return of the deposited fee after granting the petition subject to it can only take place when the patent is annulled on public grounds after granting it, and, moreover, only in proportion to the unexpired duration of the patent.

§ 12 .

The specification (§ 10), which is regarded as an essential condition to obtaining an exclusive patent, must coincide with the following requirements:

(a.) It must be drawn up in the German or official language of the Crown land where the petition is handed in, and must be signed by the appli­cant for a patent, or his representative mentioned in the petition.

( b .) It must contain the detailed representation of the discovery, invention, or improvement stated in effect in the petition.

(c.) It must be so drawn up that every professional would be able to manufac­ture the article in accordance therewith, without having recourse to new inventions, additions, or improvements. id.) That which is new, and consequently the article to be patented, must be distinctly shown in the specification, or be accurately distinguished.

(e.) The discovery, invention, or improvement must be shown clearly and dis­tinctly, without ambiguities which could mislead, and which are contrary to the object stated under (c.).

if.) Nothing may be concealed, either as to the means or the mode of execu­tion, therefore neither more expensive means, nor means not producing quite the same effect, nor handles which are necessary for the success of an operation, may be suppressed.

(y.) If drawings, samples, or models are necessary for the intelligibility of the specification, these must be enclosed, executed in a durable colour. They may, besides, be added at the pleasure of the applicant for a patent, in so far as the distinctness of the specification drawn up in accordance with
