Penknife Can Fix IL
Not nearly so much has liven written
about ¡leu* as with pens, but a friend
of the quill, writing of its virtues aud
memories associated with It. confessed
that the cheap steel pen' liad nearly
ousted the quill from tlie favor of
men, but
be »aid. “It is significant
that members of parliament and
Journalists who have perhaps never
used a quill peu before quickly de
velop uffectlon for it. Properly used.
It Is not an extravagant tool to tbe
writer, for it may be mended with a
»Imrp penknife. Jieuce the word 'pen
knife,* aud limy be used until only
the stump remains."
In the olden time, before the com
ing of the steel ¡>eri and when all men
who wrote used quills, there was dis-
usslon of the relative merits of
varieties of feathers. Swan quills
were more expensive and "exclusive"
than gcose quills, and eagle feathers
were used by persons of w ealth and
fashion, and often In the signlug of
important state pa|>ers the eagle-quill
pen was used. Queen Elizabeth always
used eagle quills.
The word "pen" should remind you
if the quill, for “¡>en" comes from the
Latin "penna." a feather. Just a» “(eti-
vll" Is derived from the Latlu "pen-
elllus,” which was a little tail or
'■rush. And this should also be a
reminder that the Romans called their
black Ink blacking, while our word
"Ink" probably comes through tbe
Tench from "encoustum," which was
’he red Ink used by Roman emperors.
Dickens Quill Sold for $17.
Tlie collector of historic pens is as

the same quill ¡>en to write “Hard
Times," “Little Dorritt" and "Bleak
House." and that |>eii. or what was
alleged to be that pen was sold at
auction Several years ago for $17. The
