all the attempts that have been made to
bring about a practical machine OF this
character, two olStat les have seemed in
superable, viz, intrlcacy and great expense
Both Of these barriers have now been over
come by j. M. Crazy, an inventor Of this city.
For upward OF six years Mr.. Crary has ex-
pended all OF his inventive ana mechanical
energyand many thousands of dollars in Ler-
tectlng the typewriter. which is now being
manufactured and Will soon be placed on the
market. bis nrst patent on this machine
was issued on June y, 1892, and a second
patent, securing complete protection, was
granted out few weeks ago. Only
three OF these typeWrters have thus

distance between lines may be scaled

brass is used. This gives hard unyieldlng
