FALL FROM PARAPET Remarkable Apathy of Eyewitness Whilst two young men were leaning against a parapet one of them bent forward to point out something of interest in the street below. His fountain pen slipped out of his pocket and went hurtling to the ground. The owner of the pen, after an exclamation of annoyance, showed no sign of perturbation. The friend, however, was much upset, until he was told about the Sheaffer Lifetime Guarantee. “Ten to one,” said the owner, “the pen won’t be a scrap damaged.” Sheaffer “Lifetime” Pens are made of radite, which is practically indestructible. And if by accident or long use any part becomes defective, repairs are made free of charge. The “Lifetime” Pen is guaranteed for the user’s whole life. 50/-, 57/6 and 65/-. Stationers or jewellers. Excelsior Supply Co., Ltd., Box 555, Wellington.—(Advt.) New multi-bladed propellers are being experimented with in the effort to make aeroplanes more silent when flying.
