result it is hard to know just when goods that are due will arrive.
We still have a store well filled with nearly everything that anyone
needs in the Hardware line, to say nothing of Paints and Oils,
Leather of all kinds, Guns, Rifles and Cartridges, Bicycles and
Bicycle Supplies, and as we depend largely on sailing vessels from
New York, England and San Francisco we are able to keep our stock
well up all the lime. When needing anything in any of the above

WHAT IS ITt
A simple, compact, and durable machine, which successfully
performs the work of the pen, with a tremendous saving of
time and exertion.
WHAT WILL IT DO! ,
It produces, with speed and certainty, in clearly legible
printed characters, one or many copies of any kind of writing,
excepting such as must be done in books.
TO WHOM IS IT USEFUL?
To every one who has writing to do. In business circles its
desirability is assured. Lawyers and journalists cannot do
without it. Professional and scientific men realize its worth
to them. The author and thinker find it invaluable. It con
serves the most potent kind of energy that of the brain by
reducing to a minimum the mechanical labor of writing, and
distributing it among all the fingers of both hands. Writer's
cramp disappears where it is used. It- presents the printed
appearance of the work to the mind at once.
WHO CAN OPERATE IT?
Any one of ordinary intelligence. A very few trials enable
any one tp write upon it readily. Thereafter it is only a mat
ter of practice.
