connection with the accompanying draw-
ings, it will be noted that each of the. sepa-
rate pen members may be readily cleansed
after use and may be swung between the
5 arms 7 and 8 when the device is not in use,
and as illustrated in Fig. 3 of the drawings,
so that the nibs of the pen will not contact
any obstruction and whereby the device
may be readily carried within the pocket of
10 the owner.
Having thus fully described the inven-
tion, what I claim as new, is:
The combination with a holder construct-
ed of resilient material, the said holder be-
ing provided with integrally formed op- i5
positely arranged arms, a pintle connecting
the arms, a nut secured to the pintle for
compressing the arms, and a plurality of
flattened pen points having elongated open-
ings adapted to be engaged by the pintle, 20
substantially as and for the purpose set
forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature
in presence of two witnesses.
