on or in connection with WHICH such use is likely to cause
confusion or mistake or to deceive as to the source of origin
of such goods; or
(2) reproduce, counterfeit, copy or colorably imitate any
such trade-mark and apply such reproduction, counterfeit,

facture, use, display or sale as may be by the said court
deemed just and reasonable, and may require the de-
fendants to pay to such owner all profits derived from
and/or all damages suffered by reason of such wrongful
manufacture, use, display or sale; and such court may also
order that any such counterfeits or imitations in the pos-
session or under the control of any defendant in such case,
be delivered to an officer of the court, or to the complainant,
