My invention relates to twine holders, par ticularly of the type used to hold twine wound on cones for withdrawal as used.

The principal object of my invention is to provide a simple and inexpensive twine holder of the type mentioned.

A further object of my invention is to provide a twine holder of the type mentioned which may be used either by mounting the same on a wall, or setting the same on a table, desk or counter; in either case the twine being held so as to be served rapidly and conveniently as required.

Further objects of my invention will appear from the following detailed description thereof.

In the drawing:

Figure 1 is a perspective of a twine holder constructed in accordance with this invention.

Figure 2 is an elevation of a twine holder with the twine cone mounted thereon.

My new twine holder is formed from asingle piece of wire one end of which is bent into a circle 1, which may serve as a base for the holder when it is desired to use the same on a counter, desk, table or similar fiat surface. The long end of the wire from the point of closure of the circle, is bent diametrically across the circle a distance of approximately one-third of the diameter as indicated by the section 2. It is then bent into an upwardly extending arm 3 and next downward- IV to form a downwardly extending arm 4, the arms 3 and 4 converging upwardly.

From the lower extremity of arm 4.- the wire continues the diametric prolongation of the element 2 forming an element 5 which extends beyond the circumference as clearly shown in the drawing. The wire is then bent upwardly to form a standard 6 into which a loop 7 is bent; it is neXt carried horizontally over the circular base and above the upper end, the point of convergence, of the arms 3 and 4. The end of the wire is then formed into a loop 8.

In using the device, the twine cone is mounted on the arms 3 and 4, which extend through the conical core of the cone. The free end of the twine is drawn through the Serial No. 533,114.

loop 8 which serves as a guide as the twine is withdrawn from theIcone. The loop 7 may be used for mounting the device on a wall or vertical frame by means of a screw or similar attaching means 9.

It will be understood that numerous modifications within the spirit and scope of my invention may be made without departing from said invention as defined in the appended claims.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patent is.

1. A device of the character described comprising a single piece of wire, said wire being formed into a circular base member, and upwardly converging arms disposed within said circular base, adapted to receive a cone of twine.

2. A device of the character described comprising a single piece of wire, said wire being formed into a circular base member. upwardly converging arms disposed within said circular base, adapted to receive a cone of twine, and a guide for twine from said cone.

8. A device of the character described comprising a single piece of wire, said wire being formed into a circular base member, upwardly converging arms disposed within said circular base, adapted to receive a cone of twine, a standard upwardly disposed out side said base, and a loop in said standard to serve as a guide for twine from said cone.

4. A device of the character described comprising a single piece of wire, said wire being formed into a circular base member,

upwardly converging arms disposed within said circular base, adapted to receive a cone of twine, a standard upwardly disposed outside said base, a loop formed in said standard for attaching the device to a vertical sup-- port, and a second loop in said standard to serve as a guide for twine from said cone.
