` To ALL WHOM, IT MAY CONCERN:

Be it known that I, JOHN W.VMcGILL, of the city and county of Washington, in the District of Columbia have invented a new and useful Mode of Making Brushes for Mucilage, Painting, Gluing, an'd other like puri poses; and I do hereby declare that the Afollowing is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.

My. invention consists in constructing a brush and its handle with aflat, oval, or round hole in one of its ends. Through this hole is run, for one-half their entire length, the hairs or bristles with which it is designed to make the brush. A neck or tube is then run down rthe handle over the hole, therebyl doubling down both ends of the hairs or bristles, and bringing them into the proper perpendicular .position below ythe end of the handle.. This tube or neck is then secured, by one or more punctures being made through it, into the handle of the brush; or, if it is designed to make the brush at, by that end of the tnbe'which has passed over the hole and beyond the end of the handle being attened, or by both means. The ends of the hairs or bristles are then ltrimmed to suit the maker, and the brush is finished.

This mode of making brushes obviates the necessity of tying the hairs or bristles to the handles of the brush, leaves it impossible'for the hairs to come out, and thereby makes the brushfar more durable than those made in the ordinary manner,

I will now proceed to describe the accompanying drawing.

Figure 1 is a finished view of a mucilage brush. -at is the hair; b, the neck or tube; c, the handle.

Figure 2 isa. sectionalrview of the brush. a is the hair; b, the handle; c, the hole in the handle through which the hair is half Way driven; and d. is' the neckorl tube which is run dow-n the handle over the` hole, for the purpose of doubling both ends of the hairs or bristles, and bringing them into the proper perpendicular position below Ythe end of the handle b. g

Figures 3, 4, and 5 are round and fiat views of the neck or tube.

Figure 6 is a View of a. paint brush.:` a is the hair; b, `the handle; e, the hole iny the handle for admitting thel hair; d, the neck or tube. v

Claim.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is `A brush, made by running the hairs or bristles for one-half their entire length throughthe hole e inone endl of the handle, then doubling down both ends of the4 hairs or bristles, -and bringing them into their' proper perpendicular position below the/end of thehandle, by running the neck or vtube d"down theV handle overthe holevgc, for the purposes set fort-hkand described.
