Yes, sir, that’s the proposition on the new model Oliver No. 5, the stand ard visible writer. ; We not only invite you—we urge you—to take advantage t of our seventeen cents a day purchase plan. This plan was devised for the benefit of the many thou sands who are renting machines or doing without them for fl lack of the ready cash. - In iw>Uinjr von pn f'-" .w ?i ju.’. iboio than half way.

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. Send Now for Book and “17 Cents a Day” Offer We have told you, very briefly, about the machine and the plan. Free books, giving details in full, are yours for the asking. If you are a salaried worker the use of the Oliver Typewriter will increase your efficiency and force you to the front. It has helped thousands to better salaries and more important positions.

Wheth er you wish to take advantage of the 17-eents-a-day offer or not you should have a copy of the Oliver Book and become better acquainted with the typewriter that has made itself indispensable to the business world and broken all records in sales.
