Write a precise of the passage and give a suitable title

The word " pencil" comes from a latin word, pencillus, which means "little tail".when pencils were 1st invented centuries ago, they were not the kind of pencils we use today. The 1st pencils were actually small,fine pointed brushes. Although we call the substance in pencils "lead".it is largely made of material called graphite and contains no actual lead. Graphite was first discovered about 500 year ago in mine in Cumberland,England. Crude pencils similar to those we use today were 1st made from pure graphite. Later, in 1790, the faber family of Germany pulverized graphite to make a kind of pencil, but there pencils did not prove to be successful. A useful pencils was not produced until later that century.in 1795, Frenchmen N.J. conte pressed a ground mixture of graphite, water,and clay into sticks and fired them in large oven called kiln. The more clay that was added, the harder the " lead" would be. When more graphite was added, the pencil, "lead" would be softer. Today more than 350 different kinds of pencils are made with varying degrees of hardness, softness, intensity and color. A standard number of 2 pencil has a lead softness level of 2 degrees.​
