THE "NOVELTY" POCKET-KNIFE I 



'^ GEO. W. YORK, 



m CHICAGO, ILLS. 



Yonr Name on the Knife,— When orderlD?. be sure to say just wbat Name ti»ii 



Address you wish put on the Knife. 



The Novelty Knife Is Indeed a novelty. The novelty lies In the handle. It Is male 

 t>eautifully of indestructible celluloid, which is as transparent as glass. Underneath tB* 

 celluloid, on one side of the handle Is placed an American Bee Journal reminder, and on the 

 other side, name and residence of the Subscriber. 



The material entering into this celebrated knife is of the very best quality; the blades 

 aie handforged out of the very finest English razor-steel, and we warrant every blade. The 

 holsters are made of German silver, and will never rust or corrode. The rivets are hardenea 

 German silver wire : the linings are plate briss ; the back springs of Sheffield spring steel, and 

 the finish of handle as described above. It will last a lifetime, with proper usage. 



VVIiypurchase the Novelty Knifel Tn case a g-)od 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 n^turn it; otherwise to try to destroy the name and address, would destroy the 

 knife. If traveling, and you meet with a serious accident, and are so fortunate as to have one 

 of the Novelties, your pocket, knife will serve as as an Identifier: and in case of death, yout 

 relatives will at once be apprised of the accident. 



How appropriate this knife is for a Christmas. New Year or birthday present I Wha'. 

 more lasting memento could a mother give to a son, a wife to a husband, a sister to a brother, 

 a lady to a gentleman, or vice versa, a son to a mother, a husband to a wife, abrothertoaslste? 

 ar a gentleman to a lady— the knife having the naftie of the recipient on one side ? 



The accompanying cut gives a faint idea, but cannot fully convey an exact represents^ 

 Hon of this beautiful knife, as the " Novelty " must be seen to be appreciated. 



Howr to Get tbis Valuable Knife.— We send it postpaid, for SI. , or give It as a 

 premium to the one sending us tliree new Subscribers to the Bee Jofrnaij (with 13. 00>, 

 and we will also send to each new name a copy of the Premium Edition of the book " Bees amJ 

 Hone"^ ," We club the Novelty Knife with the Bee JotmNAL for one year, both for $1.90
