FLY-PAPER -HOLDEFLI No. 809,951. Specification of Application filed March 22,
T Ml whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN T. I-IIXSON, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of St. Joseph, in the county of Buchanan and State of Missouri, have invented a new and Improved Fly-Paper Holder, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to improvements in devices for holding fly-paper.
It may be observed that flies and similar insects generally avoid level surfaces and seek curved or irregular surfaces upon which to alight.
It is the object of my invention, therefore, to provide a simple and inexpensive device to hold paper in an attractive and prominent form.
I will describe a fiy-paper holder embodying my invention and then point out the novel features in the appended claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both figures.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a fly-paper holder embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2 .2 of Fig. 1.
The fly-paper holder comprises a member 5, here shown as consisting of a metal plate transversely curved or arched; but the plate may be made of paper or wood, if found desirable in practice. Secured to the edges of the member 5 are spring-clips 6 for fastening the fly-paper 7 in place. The inner members of these clips 6 are soldered or otherwise secured to the plate 5, and the outer members engage with the paper, as clearly indicated in the drawings. If desired, the edges of the paper may be drawn upward to form troughs, as indicated at 8,

for catching any drippings or matter that may melt and fall down the paper. These troughs, however, may be formed of separate pieces of paper, if desired.
To support the device at an elevation that is, on a shelf, table, or the likeemploy a supporting-bracket consisting of wire bent to form downwardly and outwardly curved divergent members 9 10, having downwardly-turned ends 11 for removably engaging in eyes 12 on the edge of a shelf or the like. The members 9 of the bracket terminate in a tang portion 13, designed to removably engage in rings 14 15, these rings practically forming a socket member. From the upper ring 14 wires 16 extend to connection with the plate 5 near its ends, and similar wires 17 extend from the lower ring to connection with the plate 5 near its ends.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A fly-paper holder comprising a curved member, paper-fastening devices on said member, a socket member attached to the curved member, and a bracket for engaging in said socket member.
2. A fly-paper holder comprising a trans versely-curved plate, rings under the plate, Wires extended from said rings to connection with the plate near its ends, a bracket having a portion for engaging in said rings, and spring-clips on the lower edges of said plate.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JOHN W. HIXSON.
