this llvfil'llllnl is an; improvement in roll hold the free end thereut'so as to provide a projecting flap which may be readily grasped to withdrinv a strip of paper from the roll prior to severing the same.

sions, one or" whiclu forthe purpose of illustrating the invent on, is shown in the accompanymg drawmg, wherem:

Fig. 4 isa vert cal sectional view. In the drawing the numeral 5 indicates a' holder frame which includes a pair of standards-between which is mounted a roll of paper such as is used for wrapping purposes or the like and each of the standards is preferably provided at, its uppercnd with an angular supporting extension 6 which is adapted to support the cutting, attachment. in a manner which \\'lll appear in the course of the description. 4

The cutting;v attachment which comprises the essential feature of the invention is shown in what is now believed to he its preerred form and comprises a substantially rectangular frume generally indicated by v 'lmsparticnlar reference t a nittin attachment,- therefor. i i Y cured to the plates The inventive idea involved is capable ends and rear edges so as to yieldably force i of receiving a varietyot mechanical expres- Fig.. 3 is a side elevation of theholder and and adapted to yieldably engage the roll of paper mounted in the frame The front endsof the side members 8 are connected by the diagonally disposed cutting bar 10 having the lower cutting edge 11 by means 0t which a length of'paper is severed from the roll in the usual manner.

The cutting device further includes guiding' means for the free end of the paper, 5

:which means is so arranged that a project-- ing' flap will formed each time a piece of the paper is severed so that the removal of another long 11 or strip of paper will be facilitated. Th.v includes a stationary and diagonally disposed plate arranged between the side members 8 of the cutting: frame and having one of its edges either secured to or formed guiding means pi-eie1'ablyi\7lv integrally with the rear longitudinal mem- 725 her 9. Cotmeratiug with the stationary plate 12 is a relatively adiustabloplate 13 also mounted between theside members 8' of the cutting frame and carried by the spring 12 and 13- adjaceuttl eir said plates together to friotionally engage the free end of the paper therehe ween. The Y hinges 14, the ends of which-are se- 86 lower or forward edges of tlie platcslrl and 8 '13 are spaced at distance rcarwardlyfrom the cutting edge'll so that when a strip of the paper is severed by said edge there will remain between the cutting edge. and the adjaccnt ends of said plates a portion 'of the paper which will provide a projecting flap depending below the frame in sucha position that the same may bc'rczulily grasped to-withdraw another strip of paper from the roll prior to severing the same.

The cutting frame 7 is-preferably supported by a pluralityot rods or arms-:15 pivoted to the side mei'ubcrs 8 andnlso to the extension;(3,said rods being pivoted for the. purpose of ern'iittiug the to move relative to the roll of paper. (0.1% lain ol' the rods '15 are engaged by springs 16 carried by the extension 6 in such manner as to normally force the cutting frame toward the roll of paper and thereby yieldubly' engagetho rear longitudinal member 9 with the outer surface of said. roll.

What is claimed is In a holder for roll paper, the combination with a supporting- .frame; a cutting de- 1- vlco'associatcd thcrmvith and including a frame having a rear longitiulinal member cutting frame adaptgd for engagement with the i 'oll of papei supportcd "by the first named frame,
