Splendid Gold Pens, -Picken has
Just received of the New York house
of Aiken, Lambert & Co, a case o
their Gold Pens, which is worthy of
special examination. 1t seems to us
they embrace every style Of Pen that
can possibly be useful, and many that
have the fatal gift of beauty, either for
the desk, the pocket, or the watch
chain, the variety is large and very
attractive. With and without pencils,
large and small, fitted with pearl, or
gold. or ebony, or rubber, The styles
caunot fail to please all tastes. The
magic cases are new aud some of them
queer. By a simple movement beaa-
tiful watch charm is instantly convert
ed into pencil. AS Christmas gifts
nothing can be more appropriate and
useful AS an entire case the stock is
an elegant exhibit. Picken will please
accept our thanks for one of these
pens for editorial use. We can con-
scienciously state that we have never
used a better pen, and from the SAM
pie recommend them very highly.
