' UNTED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
AUGUST NADLER AND JOHN R. KING-HORN, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
SEALING-WAX STICK.
Ho Drawing.
borough of Brookl n, in the county of Kings and State of New ork, have invented a new and Improved Sealing-Wax Stick, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact descri tion.
Tiis invention relates to improvements in sealing wax sticks for sealing parcels,
i letters, or the like and seeks for its principal' object to provide a sealing wax stick whichwhen lighted will retain the flame thereon and, eliminate the necessity of constantly lighting the same.
In the present form of sealin wax sticks, constant lightin of the same y means of a taper or mate is required and there is a great tendency for the flame to drop off with the melted wax which often results in the burning of the wrapper or envelop.
The present invention contemplates the provision of a sealing wax stick in which a quantity of artificial silk or cellulose fibrous material is mixed,said fibrous material serving to insure a rapid combustion which almost entirely consumes itself in order that the ash and carbon is reduced to a minimum.
With the above recited objects and others in view, the invention resides in the novel combination of ingredients, reference being had to the following specification and appended claims.
In the manufacture of the sealing wax stick in accordance with the present invention, the usual ingredients such as shellac, rosin, turpentine, oil of turpentine, chalk, gypsum and cinnabar or any other composition is used. and in addition thereto a rapidly combustible fibrous material is added, prior to the molding ofthe wax in Application filed May 17, 1921.

stick form. Artificial silks are preferably used as the fibrous material, said silks having cellulose as their fundamental sub- These silks "are regarded as ,being of vegetable origin such as cellulose silk, cuprate silk and viscose silk, known to the trade as fibre wood silk, pyroxylin andl visca. The fibrous material constitutes approximately one per cent of the entire ingredients, although thisproportion may be varied to some extent. By combiningth'ese silk fibers, upon ignition of the stick, the fibers cause a rapid combustion which substantially consume the fibers during the melting of the wax to reduce the ash and carbon to a minimum. The flame tends to remain on the stick and burns freely to melt the wax, thereby permitting the user to apply the melted wax by rubbing the end of the stick over the article to be sealed.
It is to be understood that the right is reserved to embodiments other than those actually set forth herein. to the full extent indicated by the general meaning of the terms in which the claims are expressed and by variations in the phraseology of the same.
Having thus, described our invention,
.what we claim is:
silk fibers.
