O. L. ETNIER. PACKAGE FOB POWDER PAPERS.
(Application filed. Apr. 18, 1899-) (No Model) UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
IOLIVER L. ETNIER, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
F ACKAGE FOR POWDER-PAPERS.
. SPECIFICATION forming part of LettersPatent N0. 626,681, dated J 11118 13, 1899.
- Applicationfiled April 18, 1899. Serial No. 713,445. .(No model.) I
of powder-papers used by retail druggists for scriptions takes place, and the elastic band 4 compounding prescriptions and wherein the bundle of'individ ual papers is contained within a case or box to protect the papers from soiling and the papers being confined and one or more being capable of ready removalfor use without disturbing the others of the bundle; and my invention consists in a bundle of assembled powder-papers and a case or box therefor and substantially corresponding with the size and shape of the papers, said case or box having a finger-opening in one wall to expose one edge of the assembled papers to permit a portion of the papers to be lifted above the plane of the top of the box, whereby the ready removal of any desired number of papers is accomplished without soiling or crumpling the papers, said case or box having a cover with deep sides adapted to fit over the body portion and cover and conceal the finger-opening in the body when the package is not in use.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved package for powderpapers. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the cover removed. Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional View on the line a: a; of Fig. l.
Heretofore the small sheets of paper known as powder-papers and used by retail druggists in filling prescriptions have been simply scaled up in packages, and when the druggist would receive the original package he would remove any desired number of the papers and place an elastic band around them to retain them together. Papers so assembled are liable to become soiled and crumpled and more or less unsightly and possibly more or less contaminated by the odor of the store or by contact with particles of drugs which are present to a greater or less extent upon the counters where the filling of preis liable to break, and thereby cause the pa .pers to be scattered.
To cure the foregoing objections and to construct an original package of powder-papers in which the whole bundleof papers is properly assembled and protected against soiling or contamination and in which one or more of the papers maybe removed without dis turbing the remaining papers of the package or crumpling the papers removed, 1 construct a box or case of a body portion and cover and cut the papers of such size that they will about exactly fit said body, and into this body the bundle of loose and unbound sheets are assembled.
The body A is of rectangular form and deep enough to hold a large number of papers B, which are laid therein one on. top of the other to form a bundle or pile which closely fills the body. One vertical wall, preferably one end, of the body I form with an opening a, extending from a point near the bottom of the body through the upper edge, this opening being of sufficient width to admit the thumb or finger of a person and having its tion of the finger. Through this finger-opening'a, which is centrally located in one end of the body, the corresponding edges of the assembled papers are exposed, and when it is desired to removeany desired number of papers the finger or thumb is inserted through opening and a portion of the assembled papers is lifted at one end above the plane of the top of the body A, so that they may be readily removed for immediate use. When the finger is withdrawn, the papers fall back into their normal position in the body, the lifting of one edge only of the papers insuring the papers being retained in proper shape during the removal of the desired number of papers and the proper seating of the lifted papers when the finger is removed. The removal of the papers is accomplished without soiling the papers, and the papers in the body are retained in shape and kept perfectly clean.
The package also includes a cover 0 for the body, this cover closely fitting the body and having deep sides to completely inclose. the sides of the body and cover and conceal the finger-opening, thereby protecting the edges of theassembled papers, which would packing of the bundleof papers in the box.- If this opening were not present, it would be a rather tedious operation to properly assemble" the package of papers without disarranging: the papers; but with this opening as described the bundle of papers is readily-dropped;
in-to theend of the box opposite to the open ing, while vtheedgesiof the papers at the op-; posite side-the one adjacent to the openingmay be directed into the box by the use of the thumb or finger introducedinto the opening without disarran ging the bundle in the slightest degree.
Having thus .describedm y invention, What i I claim as neW,- and desir'eto secure by Letters Patent, is' p As an article of manufacture, an original package of powder-papers consisting of a rectangularlbox having vertical inner walls one wall of which is formed with an opening which extends from a point .near the bottom of the box outthroughstheiupper edge, a bundle of separate. papers sized to about fit said box and assembled therein so that a corresponding edgeof the papers forming'the 'bundlejs exposed through said opening, and a cover In testimony whereof I have hereu ntoset my hand in presence of two subscribing witnesses.

having deep sides or flanges adapted toenibrace the sides of the box and cover and conceal the opening thereof whenthe cover is in ,place.
