Who imagine that the little
paper fastener, with which we are fa-
miliar, brass device that holds a
number of loose sheets of paper to
gether, was more than two thousand
years old? Yet such is the fact, since
such a device was employed by the
Roman soldiers of that era as an incl

old legions was fastened to a strip of
cloth, serving as a lining, with a series
of little bronze clamps precisely like
the paper fastener in principle.
