CHARACTER TOLD
BY TYPEwRITING

1t Will come as surprise TO many
people 10 know that there is a great
deal OF character Ia typewriting- We're
half a dozen operators to use thu same
machine, paper and actual words. each
printing off q dozen sheets. and were all
these to be mixed mp unfortunately,
a practiced eye can now distinguish
each operators work Instantly.
IN a recent English Law case, where q
lengthy typewriter document OF many
sheets was in question. If was alleged
that one of The pages included had been
substituted for another sheet Although
TO casual eye all the sheets seemed 10
be the work OF one hand experts
showed that the spacing was quite DIFF
feTent. especially between the end of
one sentence and the beginning OF an
other. and on the substituted sheet the
new paragraphs began IN quite differ
ent position on the lines and the letters
we're shaky instead of upright and firm
And the punctuation. the crucial test
was wholly different.
The experts were unable TO trace the
person who had done the bogus type
writing, but they agreed that it was a
woman, young and only beginner at
typewTiting; that she was nervous. not
very strong and hat her education was
only moderately fair
The writer of the other sheets com
pTising the document was defined from
the eyenness, correctness and firmness
of the typewriting to be an experienced
'typist, very methodical. well edu-
Gated OF a quiet disposition and pos
sessed OF a good common sense and
great determination Merely out Of
curiosity the identity OF the ''typist'
who had typewriter the comment was
asceTtained. The experts diagnosis OF
her character was found to be perfectly
correct.-New York American.
