Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 140,206, dated June 24, 1873; application fihd To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARVEY TEoMAs LEE, ot Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and beautiful Toy a-nd I do hereby declare that the follow ing is a full and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing and to the ligures marked thereon.

and has, also, at its lower end, the disks a3 a4, having central orifices, as shown, these disks beinglocated abouta quarter of an inch apart, to form the chamber ac.
The toy is used by whirling it in the air by means of a cord, as shown in Fig. 4, by which means air is drawn into the slot, and forced out through the openings inthe disks, the latter acting as a whistle, and producing a variety of sounds, according to the varying position of the toy in the air.
It' desired it may be .used as a whistle by blowing into the slot.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The toy, consisting ot' the hollow slotted cylinder, constructed as described, and provided with the whistle, as and for the purpose set forth.
In witness that. the aboveinvention is claimed by me I have hereunto set my hand and seal.
