Abstract
A dispenser (10) for a paper pad (P) of note paper of the type having sheets (S) releasably adhered to each other along opposite edges of successive sheets (S) by a narrow band of adhesive includes a base container member (11) and an insert member (12). The base container member (11) receives the pad (P) therein and carries a leaf spring (26) having leaves (27) which apply an upward force to the pad (P) generally adjacent to the edges of the sheets (S) which have the narrow band of adhesive. The insert member (12) is positioned above the pad (P), is received within the base container member (11), and has a top surface (37) with a slot (38) therein through which the sheets (S) may be dispensed. Lock barbs (44, 52) formed on the insert member (12) engage apertures (35, 36) in the base container member (11) to temporarily attach the insert member (12) to the base container member (11).
