The Novelty Pocket= Knife. 



Your Name and Address on one side— Three Bees on the other side. 



HOWARD M. fWIELBEE, 



HONEYVILLE, O. 



[This Cut is tiik ^'ull Size of the Knife.] 



Your Name on the Knife.— When ordering, be sure to say just what name and 

 address you wish put on the Knife. 



The Novelty Knife is indeed a novelty The novelty lies lu the handle. It is 

 made beautifully of indestructible celluloid, which is as transparent as glass. Un- 

 derneath the celluloid, on one side of the handle is placed the uatnr, and residence of 

 the subscriber, and on the other side pictures of a Queen, Drone, and Worker, as 

 shown here. 



The Material entering into this celebrated knife Is of the very best quality; 

 the blades are hand-forged out of the very finest English razor-steel, add we war- 

 rant every blade. The bolsters are made of German silver, and will never rust or 

 corrode. The rivets are hardened German silver wire; the linings are plate brass: 

 the back springs of Sheffield spring-steel, and the finish of the handle as described 

 above. It will last a last-time, with proper usage. 



Why Own the Novelty Knife ? In case a good knife is lost, the chances are the 

 owner will never recover it; but if the ** Novelty " is lost, having name and address 

 of owner, the finder will return it; otherwise to try to destroy the name and ad- 

 dress, would destroy the knife. If traveling, and tou meet with a serious accident, and are so for- 

 tunate as to have one of the " Novelt'.cs," your Pocket-Knife will serve as an identifier; and in 

 case of death, your relatives will at once be notified of the accident. 



How appropriate this knife is tor a present! What more lasting memento could a mother 

 give to a son, a wife to a husband, a sister to a brother, or a lady to a gentleman, the knife having 

 the name of the recipient on one side ? 



The accompanying cu' gjres a faint idea, but cannct fully convey an exact representation of 

 this^beautiful knife, as the '* fvovelty " must be seen to be appreciated. 



How to Get this Valuable Knife.— We send it postpaid for $1,25, or give it as a Premium to the 

 one sending us 'iriREE nf.w subscribers to the Bee Journal (with $3.00.) We will club the Novelty 

 Knife and the Bee Journal for one year, both for $1.90.
