Valiant Protector of People’s Eye
sight hailed as a benefactor by
many thousands of enthusiastic
admirers. “ Officer Printype ”
responds with becoming modesty.
Officer Printype says: “1 am overwhelmed
by the ovation which greeted my appear
ance in your midst I am simply doing my
sworn duty in ridding the business and
financial districts of I he bad characters
that for years have made typewriters a
menance to your eyesight. I have mi rci
lessly exposed and relentlessly pursued
these dangerous typewriter types, which
are responsible for more cases of defective
Vision than all other causes combined.
“Report direct to my headquarters, in the
Oliver Typewriter Building, Chicago, any
machine whose type is violating the Opti
cal law apd I’ll have the offender haled
before the court of public opinion.

PRINTYPE IS OWNED AND CONTROLL
ED EXCRUSIVELY BY THE OLIVER
TYPEWRITER COMPAEY
America rings with praise and ap-.
plause for Printype. -This superb
new typewriter type has attracted
more'attention than any typewriter
innovation brought out recent years
Hundreds of thousands of people
have seen this new type and wond
ered what it was that made prin
type correspondence seem like a
spoken .message. There’s virility,
strength and charm in printype cor
respondence. There’s refinement
and “class” and style. Notpecauie
of its novelty—it’s inherent in type.
" A Vast Improvement
Printype is designed in shaded let
ters and numeral, like the type in
whiee books and magazines are
printed. It is book type transformed
and adopted to modern typewriter
requirements.

This radical departure from the old
style “outline” letters makes it pos
sible to produce, on ihe’Oliver type
writer, a page of manuseripl as clear
and attractive as that of the finest,
book. The Oliver is the first and
only typewriter that successfully
prinis print.
The Prim ry Reason
Printype resulted from ourdis, ff-—,.
that “outline.” type, with its same
ness, due to absence of shading,
was harmful to the eyes.
The Silenf Test
For months, without any advertis
ing, we put hundreds of Printype
Oliver Typewriters inf o actual srrv
ice, in many diver e lines of busi
ness. We wanted the public verdict
It came in a burst ot admiral ion and
a flood of orders that proved prin
type a brilliant success. Printype
letters, wherever seen, excited the
keenest interest, Business men who
received their first printype letter
almost invariably answered, post
haste—“where did you get that type
Thus printype captured the country
without firing a single shot,
Price Not Advanced
The Print|ie Oliver Typewriter sells
for SIOO. You can pay at rate of 17
cents a day. The new type adds^o
per cent to the value, but not one
cent io the price. A small cash pay
ment brings the machine.

He always slept out on the porch, so that
he might breathe germless air;
He kept from eating starchy food and
lived upon the plainest fare;
He Wore hygienic underclothes; to please
his wife he scorned cigars
And never would consent to ride in poor
ly ventilated cars.
He never guzzled any kind of stuff con
taining alcohol;
He had no taste for cigarettes and never
used the things rtt all;
He never jumped on moving trains nor
monkeyed with a rusty gun,
He never ran such risks as nine men out
of ten mon dally run.
He walked according to a rule that ex
perts had agreed upon,
And In accordance, with a rule he’d road
somewhere, his breath was drawn;
But he Is lying ’Death the sod; it seems
that ■he somehow forgot
That falling in a well at night will kill a
man as like as not.
Heartless Legislators.
"'I see the Nevada state assembly
has passed a bill making is necessary
for any applicant for divorce to reside
there a year Instead of six months,
the length of time required uader the
old law.”
“My goodness, that’s terrible, isn’t
it? One is likely to lose all one’s love
for the person one desires to marry
if one has to wait a year. It does
seem as if legislators must He awake
at night trying to think of new ways
in which they can keep people from
being happy.”
Great Relief.
“Well, hoW did you like the ser
mon?”
“Very much,” replied the man who
had attended eleven banquets in
rapid succession. "It was a great re
lief to have the preacher get up and
begin his sermon without saying:
‘The remarks of the previous speaker
have reminded me of a story,’ ”
Ancestry.
“My grandmothers on both sides
were Daughters of the American Revo
lution.”
“I don’t know whether my grand
mothers belonged to anything or not,
but I’ve heard my father say that
he once belonged to the Sons of Tem
perance.”
Cause and Effect.
"So you parted never to meet
again?”
“Yes.”
“And what happened then?”
“He kissed me goodby.”
“Ah! When are you to be mar
ried?”
Warned.
“Policeman, arrest that man for
swearing in the street.” >
“I ain’t heard him swearin’ anny.”
“But he’s going to in a minute. I
am about to inform him that his
daughter has eloped with the chaf
teur.”
Detestable.
Two of the most detestable kinds
of people in this world are the ones
who are ashamed of their grandfathers
and those who boast of the high posi
tions their grandfathers had in so
ciety.
A Compliment.
"Your glasses,” she said, “have made
a great difference in your appear
ance.”
“Do you think so?” he asked.
"Yes. You look so intelligent with
them on.”
