A PEN AND INKSTAND IN ONE. THE ANTI-STYLOGRAPH Fitted with Non-Corrodible Pens. THE ANTI-STYLOGRAPH ia a. SelfFeeding Reservoir Pen, and differs from all Stylographs from the fact of its being not a writing point but a true pen, nibbed in the ordinary way, and changeable at pleasure. THE ANTI-STYLOGRAPH is ready for instant use without adjustment, and will write with any ink — black, red, or copying. It only requires to be refilled after several days' use, and may be carried in any position without risk of leakage. No inkstand is required, and there is, of course, no dipping of the pen, wnich, on the contrary, will write freely and continuous'y until the ink contained ia the holder is exhausted. The refilling can be effected with the greatest ease and celerity. ,i PRICES OF THE ANTI-STYLOGRAPH : . Pocket Size (4J inchei), fitted with NonCorrodible Pen, 4s 6d each. Desk Size (6 inches), fitted with NouCorrodible Pen, 5s 6d each. "The Anti-Silogral'H supplied by Thomas De La Rue & Co., is correctly described as a 'selffeeding reservoir penholder, carrying a pen with ordinary nibs.' It is an admirable invention, and enables the writer to preserve the distinctive features of his handwriting. Instead of producing strokes of uniform thickness the strength of the up anp down strokes can be varied at pleasure, according to the character of the nib employed. It writes freely with any good ordinary ink, aud is certain to become popular."— Morning Post. "The An i l-STYLCGRAPH.— Messrs Thomas De Ta Rue and Co. send us some specimens of their AntiSty ograph— a tuoular penholder coataining a self-regulating supply of ink. This useful contrivance is due to the ingenuity of Mr T. A. Hearson, Professor of Applied Mechanics at the Royal Naval College. The holder is fitted with a flexible nib, renewable when worn out, like an ordinary steel pen, and thus differs materially from the Stylograph, which, with its hard line point, is unsuited for some styles of writing. To those who have to write much at odd times and places, this Anti-Stylograph should be especially valuable, enabling them, as it does, to dispense with an ' exciseman's ' or other form of portable inkstank, -while it preserves all the character of a person's handwriting, and, what is even more important, of his signature."—- Daily flews. LAWN TENNIS. RACQUETS, BALLS, : . NETS, COORT MARKERS. i THE "DIAMOND" RACQUET, Registered. This is the only Racquet by which the Striker has absolute control over the ball, and possesses the following immense advantages :—: — 1. The greatest elasticity is obtained, as the strain caused by striking the ball is equally distributed over a much greater surface. 2. The interlaced and diagonal mesh of the 11 Diamond " Racquet holds each string in its place. 3. This elasticity is especially appreciated for backplaying, no force being required to return the service. 4. The ball can be " served "or " volleyed" with the greatest precision. ' 5. The practice of " cutting " or "screwing" is particularly facilitated by the formation of the mesh, 6. The " Diamond " Racquet does not destroy the balls as in the case with knotted-strung Racquets.
