To all whom it may concern:     Be it known that I, JOHN M. EWEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented and produced a new and original Ornamental Design for Prism-Plates, of which the following is a specification.     My invention relates to a new design for a prism-plate, and is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein is shown an elevation of a prim-plate containing my design.     The prism-lights are provided each with a series of prisms B B, and each of the central lights C C is hexagon-shaped. The side, top, and bottom sections are pieces derived from cutting up the hexagons and are shaped as shown. These several prism-lights are

arranged together in a plate by means of the zigzag-shaped opaque frame-pieces E and the short cross-pieces F.     The essential features of my design are found in a prism-plate consisting of a series of hexagon-shaped prism-lights and shaped as shown, having each on one side a series of prisms, and a frame composed of zigzag and short pieces, as shown.     I claim--     The design for a prism-plate substantially as shown and described.
