A GOOD FOUNTAIN PEN
HANDIER than a pencil
Because you dont have to
sharpen it.
QUICKER than an crdtnary pen
Because you dont have to dip it.
CLEANER than either
Because it neither blots nor spills
BETTER than any other writing
tool
Because it is ready when you ate
A RELIABLE Fountain Pen is now
regarded by progressive people as the
roust practical and convenient writing
instrument --a great relief from the in-
convenience of a "dip" pen and untidy
and uncleanly inkstands. \Ve have an
assortment of gole nibs, fine, medium,
coarse and stub points to suit any hand.
Those who oppose Fountain Pens are
unquestionably those who have never
given thein a fair trial. The cheapest
that's good is $1.25. \Ve have thele
twice as good at twice that price and
gold -mounted ones at $1.50. It would
be our pleasure to have you inspect our
offerings and we trust a mutual profit.
