The Real Story Of Printype

The idea from which "Printype"
Sprung resulted from the success OF
our type experts ia eQuipping a
typewriter used in our offices to
write 1.-THE Oliver Typewriter in
our famous trademark type just as
the name appears on the outside of
the machine and in all Oliver public
ity.
The beautiful appearance and the
marvellous clearness of the reproduc-
ton of our ebony" trademark type,
disclosed the possibilities of equipping
The Oliver Typewriter to WRITE
THE ENTIRE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
IN SHADED LETTERS!
We worked for YEARS on the plan
and finally succeeded in producing,
for exclusive use on The Oliver
Typewriter, the wonderful shaded
letters and numerals known to the
world as "Printype."

The Public's Verdict

That the public is overwhelmingly
In favor of Printype is impressively
shown by this fact:
ALREADY OVER rs PER CENT
OF OUR ENTIRE OUTPUT OF Oh
EVER TYPEWRITERS ARE PRIN-
TYPES"
The public is DEMANDING Print
ype in preference to the Old-style
type.
Within year, at the present rate,
80 PER CENT OF OUR TOTAL sales
will be "Printypes.
Thus The Oliver Typewriter. which
first successfully introduced VISIBLE
WRITING, is again to the fore with
another revolutionary improvement
PRINTYPE, THE TYPE THAT
PRINTS PRINT!

TRIBUNE 90 YEARS OLD.

With this issue The Tribune begins
its sixty-ffth yearly volume The first
number of the paper was issued on
September 4, 1847, and it is therefore
sixty-four years and four months old.
BY change in numbering many years
ago, the volumes were made complete
with each calendar year.
While The Tribune has not attained
great proportions or pretentions in its
long life, an inspection Of the old files
in the Office shows that it has steadily
made some progress, fairly keeping
pace with the advances Of the com
munity Of which it has been part for
more than half a century.
In the first number of the paper,
copy of which is now before us, Mr..
Geo w. Bliss said editorially; "lt will

best interests Of society, to dissent

WISCONSIN BANKS.

1t is an encouraging bank statement
which has just been issued by the state
banking department, covering the bus
mess Of Septe nber October and No
vember. That statement shows a
steady, healthy growth in the state
banks, both in the deposits and in their
other departments.
Conspicuous in this statement is the
increase in deposits Of 49, 400, 10000
about 81 for every man, woman and
child in the state, And this takes into
account only the state banks. The ma
tional banks Of the state carry deposits
as large, if not larger, than he state
banks, and their increase is az least as
great, which would mean an increase
in deposits Of "a for each habitant
This is a great showing It cannot
all be lald 20 the selling OF the crops,
as would have been the ease in an
earlier day, because much Of it repre-
sents industrial activity. And even on
the farms, the annual crop sale does
not count for as much as it once did.
Most farmers now have steady in
come during the year from their sales
of dairy produce, beef and pork stock,
and other produce which has no strictly
seasonal market, bat which moves all

resents development, O development OF

was Il sign to her to turn TO the right,
and a few yards farther on shooting

told her that she was above the spot

WILD ELEPHANTS.
When Angry They Can Lard Five
Ton Death Dealing Kick.

H. Alexander Powell in the Outing
magazine throws some light on the
theory that an elephant is clumsy.
When annoyed wild elephant has u
unique method of dealing with the
overpopulation evil. Mr.. Powell says:
provided the noosers are working
tremendously, however, and given re-
liable and well trained decoys. the noos.
ing OF n wild elephant Is in itself
sight worth travelling half around the
world to see.
THE animal to be roped having been
again selected, the decoys closed in on
either side of him until he was practi-
cally helpless. A nooser, 1.-THE and ac-
tive as an eel. slid down the pad rope
of his decoy and, waiting until the at
tention Of the captive had been mo-
mentarily distracted. slipped thick
moose of rawhide round the hind ankle
OF his prize.
ut Is during this operation that the
accidents usually occur, for should the
captive suspect an enemy in his rear
he can lunge out Il five ton kick 10 n
distance of dozen feet. and that even
ing tine nooser's relatives assemble for
the funeral"

boy a pair of shoes which he badly
