MENDING POCKET KNIVES,

a man of an Inquiring turn who had
mii mi tha front of a cutler's shot) the
dgn, "Pocket Knives Bebladed and Ko-
hanAiad." and woo recalled tne ract
that whan ha was a boy. he used ts
get a new blade put In sometimes when
he broke one out ot ms unite, round,
upon inquiry, that boys stIU get new
blades put in knives as they used to,
but that as a matter of fact the peo
ple who have pocket knives repaired
am moatlv older persons, and that the
knives are likely to be valued for their
associations.
Tve carried that knife for fifty
years," aays ens gentleman, ana ne
bauds over a kuue mat ne s carneu
since he was a boy, and that he'd hate
to lose.
Manv knives brought la for repairs
are prised because they are gifts; or
they were bought In some foreign coun
try, or they jtirt suit ths baud of the
man that uses them, 'mere are vsnous
more or lesa sentimental reasons why a
man may prefer to keep the old knife
rather than discard It for a new out.
Then It may be that In some other
cases the knife la too valuable to
be thrown away. So that Bret and last
and for one reason and another out of
tha Vaat number of Docket knives car
ried a good many come In to be mended.
The repairs made to pocket knives
are of a varied character. They may
consist for example. In the putttng on
of on new pearl aide on a pearl-handled
knife to replsce a side cracked or
flawed. With long use the blade at the
hinged end or the spring In the handle
or the rivet by which the blade la held
mav get worn so that the kntre blade
won't close properly, or may be the
spring le no longer as It ahould be,
flush with the back of the knlfo. In fact,
a great many things can happen to a
pocket knife, and of course the more
blades the more thlugs can happen, but
th cutler repairs them all.
The phrase "rebladed and renanaiea
suggested, of course, the Idea of a com
nlnta renewal, and the Inquirer won
dered if It might not be possible that
with the repair or a anue in one yt
and another such a renewal might oc
cur. And the cutler said that not oniy
was It possible, but that sometimes It
actually did happen that with auccee
slve renewals of Its various parts the
whole knife came sometimes to be en
tirely renewed, and there waa lert or
the original knife nothing.

approach the ranges, and will Imme
