THE POST FOUNTAIN PEN. Price, Three Dollars. The holder is larger than the above cut shows, being the usual size of fountain pens, length seven inches. It is a Self-filler and Self-cleaner, and we believe it to be the best fountain pen made. The patentee was for his unique invention made a member of the French Academy of Inventors, and it is the only fountain pen manufactured in America awarded a gold medal by the "Academie Parisienne Des Inventeurs Industriels et Exposants Paris.” Bishop J. H. Vincent, D.D., wrote April 21, 1899, "I carry four fountain pens and now the Post makes the fifth, and the fifth is by far the best I have-and all are good." Mr. Anderson Fowler, a member of the Board of Managers of the Missionary Society, writes: "The self-filling arrangement in the Post is certainly a great advantage over the old style, and one that cannot fail to be highly appreciated by those who use fountain pens. I am so much pleased with mine I want you to send me, with bill, six more, which I want as presents." Dr. Lyman Abbott, Editor of The Outlook: "To me it is a great advantage to have a fountain pen which requires no filler, and can be filled at any time, and at any inkstand, without the possibility of inky fingers or blotted paper or desk. Enclosed please find my check for $3.00 for the pen received, which I cordially recommend." For $3.00. Two copies of GOSPEL IN ALL LANDS for one year and one Post Fountain Pen. For $4.50. Six copies GOSPEL IN ALL LANDS for one year, to one or six different persons, and one Post Fountain Pen. In ordering say whether you want a fine, medium, coarse, or stub pen.
