KELLY & WALSH, LD.

HAVE RECEIVED A LARGE SUPPLY OF THE

}

SWAN FOUNTAIN PEN.

THE "Swap is a Mable, Todd & Co. Gold Pen fined to a rubber reservoir to hold any kind of ink, which it supplies to the writing point in a continuous dow. It will hold ink enough for two days' constant work, or a week's ordinary writing, and can be filled with as little trouble as to wind a watch.

With the cover over the gold nib it is carried in the pocket like a pencil, to be used anywhere. A parchaser may try a pen a few days, and, if by chance the writing point does not suit his hand, exchange it for another without charge.

$ EACH, WITH FILLER COMPLÈTE.

THERE ARE VARIOUS POINTS TO SELECT FROM, BROAD, MEDIUM AND-FINE. The Gold Pens is the "Swans" are Mable, Todd and Co.'s famous make. They are 14-carat tempered gold, very handsome, and positively unaffected by any kind of ink. They are pointed with selected polished iridium...

They will not penetrate the paper, and writer's cramp is unknown among users of Gold Pens. They are a perfect revelation to those who kusw nothing about Gold Pear.
