Another Invention. On
Monday we examined a new inven
tion by Dr. Smith, of this city,
which is certainly the neatest and
handiest thing in its line that we
have ever seen. It is a lead pencil
sharpener, and is different from all
other pencil sharpeners in this, that
it remains on tbe pencil and acts as
a fender to the lead. When tbe
lead wears down to the wood, all
you've got to do is to give the feu
der or sharpener a turn or two, and
the wood is nicely cut away from
the lead, and the point of the pen
cil nicely sharpened ready fbr use.
It is certainly a very complete and
handy invention, and as it can be
afforded very cheap, will sell by the
million. Dr. Smith is a genius,
and bound to get away with a pile
of chickamon rn the strength of this
invention. Success to our boys.
