          Appeal No. 1998-0889                                                        
          Application 08/006,585                                                      

               The limitations of claims 43-45 have been discussed in                 
          connection with claims 1, 3, 4, and 8.  Because independent claim 43        
          does not contain the limitations of independent claim 1 on which the        
          rejection was reversed, it does not stand or fall together with             
          claim 1 as argued by Appellant (Br23).  The separate patentability of       
          claim 46 has not been argued.  The rejection of claims 43-46 is             
          sustained.                                                                  

























                                       - 18 -
