FOUNTAIN PEN PERFECTION.
The Quaker City Self-Filling Fountain Pen Fills Itself and Thereby Fills
 Long Felt Want
(Free Presa.l


 Any reliable time saver is eagerly welcomed by the modern business man. Probably the most forceful illustration of this condition of things in recent years was the enthusiasm with which the fountain pen was greeted It seemed to mean the saving of so much time and annoyance for so many people that its sale was simply phenomenal.
 But the fountain pen was not by any means perfect and it's users soon dis covered that the bother was only con- centrated. instead of being dispensed with. The finest fountain pen would write indifferently we'll as long as there was ink in it, but when that gave out our busy man had to stop. unscrew an fnky cap. hunt around for a filler and the particular ink recommended by the manufacturers of that particular pen and so on through long process of annoyance.
 The manufacturers Of the Quaker City Self-Filine Fountain Pen have overcome all this bother and produced a practical writing tool which is as easy to 1se as if one were simply writ ing with the filler needed for tha old pen. There is nothing to .unscrew. nothing to squirt. nothing to lose or oct out Of order. Its construction is sim ple and srhstar+iat and the onera ion Of filing if so si''nnia That you wonder nobody t,o1-ollt of it before

The whole cost of such bassinet made by the writer was just 76 cents. The wood is all ready finished off in white, and with a little white enamel to touch up where the poles have been scratched or cut in putting them together the work will be finished in good shape.--Cor.
