A Solid Gold Fountain Pen. 



Finally, we have found a good Fountain Pen that is reasonable in 

 price. The manufacturers of this Pen say that if you pay more than 

 $1.25 for other fountain pens, it's for the name. 



This Pen is absolutely guaranteed to work perfectly, and give sat- 

 isfaction. The Gold Nibs i.re 14 kt., pointed with selected Iridium. The 

 Holders are pure Para Rubber, handsomely finished. The simple feeder 

 gives a uniform flow of ink. Each pen is packed in a neat box, with di- 

 rections and Filler. 



How To Get This Fountain Pen. 



We send it postpaid for $1.25, by return mail, or with the Weekly 

 American Bee J ournal a whole y ear, for $2.00. 



This Fountain Pen would be a splendid gift to a friend or relative. 

 Why not order both Pen and Journal lor some bee-keeper as a present? 



The Novelty Pocket= Knife, 



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

 name aud address you wish put on the Knife. 



The Novelty Knife is indeed a novelty. The novelty lies in the 

 handle. It is made beautifully of indestrui tible culluloid, which is as 

 transparent as glass. Underneath the celluloid, on one side of the 

 handle, is placed the name and residence of any one desired, and on the 

 other Slide pictures of a Queen, Drone and Worker, as shoAnheie. 



The Material entering into this celebrated knife is of the very bast 

 quality; the blades aie hand-forgtd out of the very finest Eng ish razor- 

 sieel, and we warrant every blade. T he bolsters are made of (ierman 

 silver, and will never rust or corrode. The rivets aie hardened German 

 silver wire; the linings are p^ate brass; the back springs of Sheffield 

 spring steel, and the finish of the handle as described above. It will last 

 a life-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 ii; otherwise 

 to try to destroy the name and address, would destroy the knife. If 

 traveling, and vou meet with a serious accident, and are so fortunate as 

 to have one (if the " Novelties," your Pocket Kntfe will serve as an 

 identifier: and in case of death, your relatives will ai once be notified of 

 the accident. 



How appropriate this knife is for a present! What more lasting 

 memento could a mother give to a son, a wife to a husband, a s-ister to a 

 bro her, or a lady to a gentleman, the knife having the name of the re- 

 cipient on one side? 



The accompany ing cut gives a fa'nt idea, but cannot fully convey 

 an exact representation of this beautiful knife, as the "Novelty " must 

 be seen to be appreciated. 



How to Qet this Valuable Knife.— We send it postpaid for $1.25, or 

 with the Weekly American Bee Journal for one year, both for $2.00. 



Please allow about two weeks for your Knife order to be filled. 



pS.- To those new subscribers who take either the Knife 

 or Pen with the Weekly American Bee Journal (at S2 00), 

 we will also send the back numbers beginning with the 

 National Convention Report, as stated above, so long as 

 they last.
