KELLY & WALSH, LD.

HAVE RECEIVED A LARGE SUPPLY OF THE

SWAN FOUNTAIN PEN.

"Swan" is a Mabie, Todd & Co. Gald Pen joined to a rubber reservolt 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 dan be filled with <an little; trouble as to wind a watch.

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

-$4/EACH, WITH FILLER COMPLETE.

THERE ARE VARIOUS POINTS TO SELECT FROM, 'BROAD, MEDIUM AND FINE.. The Gold Pans in the "Swans " are Mable, Told & Co.'s famous mako. They are 14-carat tempered goid, very handsome, and positively unaffected by any kind of ink. They are pointed with selected pollshed tridium,

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