No. ■ll.-Multnin in I*s«rvo Poclcet 
Knife.—^“Boys, Head Yes, and the 
Men) too. Mr. r „ , Ba. 
Judd thinks Wr. Judd's gj^ special favorite.] 
more of this 
than any other 
article of twice 
its cost. He ob¬ 
tained one in 
London just 
ten years ago, 
which he still n 
carries , and 
says it far more 
than pays the 
interest on 
$100, (2 cents a 
day,) for, aside 
from its ordin¬ 
ary use as a 
double-bladed 
knife, some 
one of its 
“tools” is often worth a “quarter,” by being on 
hand and just the thing wanted in an emergency. He 
sent an order to England at three different times, 
but only received much larger, clumsier articles, less 
effective, and costing $5 each, and finally learned that the 
original maker was dead. He then got some English cut¬ 
lers here to make them, but they did not always succeed 
in keeping up a supply of first-class articles. We now 
get them all right of the Meriden Cutlery Company, 
and much cheaper than any imported. (Mr. Judd could 
find none as desirable while in London on his last visit.) 
The Engraving shows 
the parts of the knife, 
except the very conve¬ 
nient and very effective 
Screw-driver hidden by 
the opened large blade. Premium 41 [Closed.) 
The Saw is double-toothed, and will cut an inch board, 
saw off a good-sized stick, ent a notch, etc. The Hook 
is used to lift a stove-cover, pry open sundry things, clean 
a horse’s hoof, pull on the boots, etc. The Punch makes 
holes in harness, wood, etc., which can he enlarged by its 
sharp corners. The Gimlet and Corkscrew are convenient, 
of course. The Tweezers and long Pointer, or Brad-awl , 
drawn from the end of the handle, often come into use. 
The back of the Hook makes a good Hammer for tacks, 
and small pounding. The inside of the Hook forms a 
small Nut-cracker. All close into a compact white handle,' 
the whole weighing only 2 ounces. IT IS A POCKET¬ 
FUL OF TOOLS. Eight subscribers at $1.60 each brings
