17 Cents a Day I

proposition on the new model Oliver No. 5, the stand
ard visible writer.

lack of the ready cash.

We don’t want a ceht of security; only your promise to yay.
r : Thousands Sold for 17 Cents a Day
Since we began selling typewriters on this broad-gauge plan our
business has paore than doubled. Tons upon tons of metal have been,
turned into thousands of typewriters and sent all over the world to
supply the demand for Olivers—at 17-cents a day. We have ample
« capital and confidence to sell typewriters on this plan. The public
has justified our confidence in such an impressive manner that today
we are just as glad to book orders on the ‘’penny plan” as we are for
all eash in advance.
Swiftest, Strongest, Simplest SIOO Typewriter
She speed of the Oliver sets a pace that has never yet been excell
ed. Its strength and endurance are such that it serves you efficiently m
for a lifetime. No, other machine in the SIOO class compares with it in M
simplicity, for we do away with hundreds of parts used on other stan- I
dat’d typewriters. The first crude model of the Oliver Typewriter was H
built from an old wash boiler and the type of a country print shop. H
The machine was a curious looking affair, but the principles embodied H
in its design were destined to revolutionize the typewriter world.
I The OLIVER Typewriter I
Model No. 5 Wins World’s Applause
This model has captivated the public by its wealth of exclusive §j
features which save time and effort, add scores of new uses »nd give |E
tremendous gains in efficiency. The new ’’coal of mail” protects im- J
portant working parts from dust, gives added strength and stability. ■
The disappearing indicator show’s exact printing point and ducks as I
type strikes the paper. The vertical and horizontal lino-ruling de
vice is a wonderful convenience.
The automatic tabulator and the line-ruler are twin devices, each
M supplementing and comsleting the other in tabulating, invoicing and
I all kinds of statistical work. The balance shifting mechanism, the
■ automatic paper lingers, the paper register, the hack spacer and other
innovations put the finishing touch of perfection to this incomparable
S writing machine. You get all these immensely valuable improve
ments, without additional cost, when you buy the Oliver.
