DIRECTORS’ MEETING SURPRISE. The chairman, having to sign some documents, took a fountain pen from his pocket. As he did so it slipped from his fingers to the floor, and in turning to pick it up a chair-leg thumped upon it. “Thank goodness, it’s a Sheaffer ‘Lifetime,’ ” he remarked, picking up the pen. “Lifetime what?” asked a fellow director. “Don’t you know the new type of pen?” was the reply. “Fountain pens have been revolutionised during the last few years. Look at this” —he shot the pen to the floor. It “went home” like an arrow! lie retrieved the pen and again went on writing. Sheaffer’s “Lifetime’’ is guaranteed unconditionally as long as you live. In two sizes, 575. 6d. and 50s. each. Other Sheaffe. pens from 255. Pencils from 7s. Gd.—Advt.
