money to get original drawings of machinery IN
practical use in this country, and have procured
almost every work on the subject, whether pnb-

to use great economy in type so that each page OF
the work contains at least four times the number
of words found in ordinary pages of the same size
This has also secured to each plate working draw
ngs of ample SIZE and clearness, so that Mechanic
may construct accurately any machine described.
