DRAPER'S PATENT AIR TIGHT
- INKSTAND-The advantage OF
this inkstand over any heretofore offered
to the public, consists in cutting Of the
communication between the dipping cup
a I'd reservoir, by the end OF the dipping cup
pressing upon the bottom and thus pre-
vents the ink from evaporation, and be-
coming thick by exposure to the air from
the constant rising and falling of the ink in
