STEEL PENS.
The Invention That Speedily Superseded
the Gray Goose 2uilI.''

rho Invention That Speedily Superseded
the Gray Goose Quill
The earliest notice of steel pens that
have met with i by Wordsworth.
In 1903 he and h:s family were occupy-
ing the house at Coleorton during the alb
nee OF SIR George and Lady Beaumont,
and in the month of December the poet
wrote 70 the latter what he calls ''the
longest letter L ever wrote in my life,"
and with reason, as 1t fills eighteen pages.
Jic begins:
NV Dear Lady Beaumont: There's pen
,nanship for youi ] shall not be able to
keep it up to the end in this style, not
withstanding | have the advantage of
writing with one of your steel pens, with
which Miss Hutchinson has just furnished
tnc"
The next mention that have noted is
by DIR. KiIchiner, in 1894, when speaking
OF n friend above 60, he says:
''This strain OF the eye, and occasion for
spectacles of n high magnifyinC power, is
particularly fonnd IN mendiug pens, SO
that he has sufficient number OF pens 10
prevent the necessity OK meudjng any of
them until lie has finished writing"
To this there Is appended = note:
''To those who find the Irending OF pens
rather difficult job, L recommend the
occasional use of II steel pen, especially
when they wish to write very small aud
neatly The Economy OF the Eyes" :"
london, 1924, p. 50.
The steel pen seems TO have been still n
rarity at that time, and my own schoolhoy
experience teuds 10 show that il was.
From about 1924 10 1884 do not remem-
ber the use of steel pens in school, and in
the earlicr years 1875 to 1880 have a dis
tinct recollection OF our using qUilis.-
