ways on Friday, the supposed unluckiest
day of the week; knives are crossed, salt
is spilled, and everything is done to tempt
ill-luck, but 1t does not come. On the

The rnventor OF the First Typewriter

"The first typewriter ever constructed
in America was the invention Of William
Austin Burt, of Detroit, better known as
the inventor OF the solar compass, who,
in the year 1929, took out the,first Amer
ican patent for typewriter. This ma
chine, although a working typewriter,
was exceedingly crude in design and of
the toughest construction. The record OF
this patent, together with the only model
Of the machine, was destroyed by fire in
the patent Office in 1888. There is no rea-
son to doubt that TO Mr.. Burt is due the
honor of being the inventor OF the first
American typewriter" From 1929 to 1866
81 the article cites q number Of patents
which were taken out from time TO time,
but none of these inventions proved TO be
OF much practical value, and none were
products of further progress toward the
desired end.-Belford's Monthly.
