S "frauds in fountain ftens! *j52 Fountain pert fakers usually open a small^store, and placard the window with flaring placards telling all ;*££ about the "manufacturers' samples" of gold fountain ,«4«? ./ f1 ... pens they are gelling at 7/6. off thereabouts. These' w! fountain peris, the card say, are really worth from 12/6 2*73 "''*'" ' t0 £2>2 > but ort account of a special purchase, etc., are '££ being sold at the low price of 7/6. ;^**[ • . A display of gaudily decorated pens in plush boxes !'■£«•'. is usually shown in connection with the placard. Of -."£.' coUrse, the pens are nob manufacturers' samples,' nor •"- 6fe they high-grade pens sold at bargain prices^ In fact, *; I no manufacturer's name appears on them for obvious reasons. They are a thinly-washed imitation of the '-1$ real article, and, of course, they are soon out of service. |P ■ • The faker, after a prosperous business for a month s**? - • or two, vanishes, artd when the Buyer of such a pen ss£l '"' ' wants it repaired, he is surprised to learn that it wjll ' ■ , post him more than it would to have purchased a really l ' -*** worth-while article in the first place. The faker does pfit not repair his goods. , «*u; These fakers do distinct harm to the fountain pen 3j£. industry, as many buyers after trying a " fountain pen "y/J" y /J ttf that type, never try another. "They never really learn "'•^f «he merit of a good f ountain pen. ;r; r • , There is no objection to the sale of cheap fountain' V^ pens when the buyer is told just what he is buying— ' ■ that is fair. But when he is misled into believing he is "£* ' buying a high priced fountaih pen .for about 7/6, It is , • */- . * ' fraud pure and simple. And every effort should bo. . aS- made to squelch vendor's of this type. 1 ' ' ( '.- V"' 1 Don't be misled ! ?H" Buy a pen that sells on its name — $r the " Swan " or the " Onoto{ J !
