To Protect Fingers,

In this age of wear and tear on the
serves. anything to make your stem
5grapher more amiable and agreeable,
f such thing be possible, is worth
considering. A rubber thimble has
been invented to protect the fingers
n both piano playing and typewriting
and is now on sale here. The tips Of
,hc fingers are not only nerve centers,
but one of the most sensitive part of
The body Consequently, the finger
nerves receive many severe shocks in
.,iacticing or typewriting. The new
'l'mbies are made of very thin rubber
% fit the ends of the fingers and will
lessen the shock Of the nerve centers
The speed also is increased 10 per
cent by their use, and the ends OF the
fingers are kept from becoming callous
and the nails from splitting. No doubt
a mint Of money is in store for the in
ventor. since the device is guarantee
to improve Disposition
