CHARLES F. PEASE, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.

SHADE-PULL.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 280,507, dated July 3, 1883.

Application filed May 19, 1883. (No model.)

To @ZZ whom, t may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLES F. PEAsE, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk, State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Shade-Pulls, of which the following is a description sufficiently full, clear," and exact to enable any person skilled in the art or scienceto which said invention appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which Figure l is a side elevation representing the pull attached to the shade and in use; and Fig. 2, alike view, some of the parts being represented in section.

Like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the different figures of the drawings.

My invention relates to that class of shadepulls which are designed to be attached directly to the lower end or stick of the shade 5 and it consists in a novel construction and arrangement of the parts, as hereinafter more fully set forth' and claimed, by which a better-looking and more desirable article of this character is produced than is now in ordinary use.

The nature and operation of the improvement willbe readily understood by all con- -versant with such matters from the following explanation, its extreme simplicity rendering an elaborate description unnecessary.

In the drawings, A represents the body of the pull; B, the covering, and C the attaching-cords.

The body is preferably composed of wood and provided with the ornamental ends D.

The covering is composed of velvet, plush, or any similar material, and entirely envelops the body between the bosses c of the ends D, being attached thereto in any proper manner.

The supporting-cords C pass around the body outside of the covering B, and through 45 the rings m, being tied or secured under the tufts or rosettes d. The rings m are provided with screws f, which are screwed into the lower edge of the shade-stick E, and by which the pull is attached to the shade and supported.

Between the stick E and rings m there are bell-shaped rosettes h, composed of silk or any other suitable material for covering the rings, and beneath the body A there is a cord, G, running along the under side of said body through the cords C, by which it is supported, its ends being joined at c and provided with the tassels H. The cord G and tassels H are designed as ornaments to the main pull, but

*myself to the use of the ornamental ends D,

tassels H, cord G, rosettes h, or to the method shown for securing the pull to the stick, as these may be changed or omitted without materially departing from the spirit of my invention. 1

Having thus explained my improvement, what I claim isl. In a shade-pull, the body A, eitherwith or without the ornamental ends D, said body being covered with plush, velvet, or other suitable material, and attached to the shadestick E by the cords C and screws f, or equivalent means, substantially as set forth.

2. The improved shade-pull herein described, the same consisting of the body A, covering B, cords C, rings m, screws f, and cord G, constructed, combined, and arranged to operate substantially as shown and described.
