DESlGN FOR ORNAMENTATION OF PAPER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Design No. 16,256, dated September 22, 1885.

Term of patent 7 years.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, WILLIAM DEMUTH, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York city, in the county and State of New York, haveinvented and produced a new and original Design for Oruamentation of Paper, of whichthe following is a specification.

My design is clearly exhibited in the accompanying drawing. As a whole it may be considered as broken up by means of divisionlines at O C O C G G O G into panels or spaces more or lessseparate, and of these panels or spaces and dividing-lines there may be as many as are required to produce the desired effect. The lines from Oto O, inclusive, are somewhat wavy that is to say, are not perfectly straight, although to the eye the direction of each thereof is marked and dis tinct. As shown. it will be seen that they converge more or less toward the bottom line of the design.

The design as a whole (shown in the accompanying drawing) is bounded at the top and bottom by curved lines A A, which, as there represented, are more or less nearly concen tric. The end lines, B B, are shown as converging somewhat.

The panels or spaces between the lines 0 to O, inclusive, are themselves subdivided by means of wing-shaped figures, (indicated by D D D D D D D D,) each of said figures consisting mainly of two curved lines, parts of which diverge upwardly from a common point, and which at a short distance from said point are bent in another direction-as outward and downward they terminating before they reach the adjacentdividing-lines C G,&o. Between each two of the adjacent Win g-shaped figures D lines or shaded surfaces are formed, as in dicated at n n n, so arranged as to give the impression that the parts at D are deeper than those at n-t-hat is to say, that the latter are raised edges or surfaces which fade or pass into the deeper 0r darker parts at D.

What I claim is The herein-described design forornamentation of paper or flexible material, having top, bottom, and end lines bounding a space or surface which is broken up or divided by means of the wavy lines 0 O O and wingshaped figures D transverse to the said lines 0 O, and the intermediate lines or shaded surfaces, n, substantially as described and shown.
