. American bee journal. Bee culture; Bees. 814 THE AMERICAN BEE JOURNAL. Dec. 18, 1902. The Novelty Pocket=Knife. Your Name and Address on one side—Three Bees on the other side. HOWARD M. MELBEE, HONEYVILLE, (This Cot is the Size of the Knife.] Vour Name on the Knife.—Wbea orderiug-, be sure to say jnst what name and address you wish put oq the Knite. The Novelty Knife Is indeed a novelty The novelty lies In the handle. It is made beautifully of indestructible celluloid, which is as transparent as ^lass. Un- derneath the celluloid, on one side of the handle is placed the name 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-forg-ed out of the very finest English razor-steel, and 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 lining-s are plate brass; the back springs of Sheffield , and the finish of the handle as described above. It will last a last-time, with proper usage.

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 you meet with a serious accident, and are so foi- tunate as to have one of the •' Novelties," 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 for 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 ladv to a gentleman, the knife havlaff the name of the recipient on one side? The accompanying cul, gives a faint idea, but cannot fully convey
