First Signature
Signing Device
Now in Omaha

The duplicating Of hundreds Of
thousands Of typewriter letters. each
an exact facsimile Of the original letter,
was hailed as marvellous a few years ago.
but there is to-day in Omaha a device
that actually signs such letters at the
same time they are being printed, which
Is usually at the speed Of about S,oe9
per hour.
The signature signing device is in daily
operation in the letter duplicating de
partment of T. Toby Jacobs advertising
writer. 501-59 Brandeis Theater build
ing, and these already privileged 10 ex-
anime its workings have pronounced it
almost human in its effect.
BY means Of an electrotypc Of one 5
signature. MI Jacobs is now enabled TO
sign the name" to letter by electric
ity. the signature being automatically
signed just rs the typewriter letter is
elected from the press it is being printed
upon.
The fluid used in the signing is practi-
cally the same as writing ink. 50 deteC-
ton from the genuine is we'll nigh i'm
possible.
Form letters are rendered vastly more
natural by the new device now in oper-
alton in Mr.. Jacobs office. and many
omahans will take advantage OF this lat
est business utility.
Interested ones may see the signature
signing device in active operation any
time.

The redoubtakie Yeiser has inundated
himself as the victim OF self-sacrifiee out

which he pioneered.
In the interest OF harmony he will not
insist on standing for delegate-at- large,

another long letter-proclama,son explain
ing that his withdrawal is all OF his own

tirely satisfactory to himself. Although
his own ambition to shine at Chicago has
been thus frustrated. he Claims TO have
exacted compromising concessions in the
way of having Roosevelt men put on the
La Toilette delegation. ana an agreement
to have Roosevelt's name printed on at
least half the petition blanks. The alb

paragraph:
