X. Sugimura literary editor of the

especially admires the linotype type
setting machines. Unfortunately we
are unable to use them in Japan, for
our language has forty-seven letters. ms

and such a number of types is. OF
course. beyond the capabilities of any
machine yet invented. In the printing
office of orr newspaper in Tokyo the

acter, instead of standing in one place
