A glance at the illustration will show how clearly visible is the writing while Q in process on the Brooks, without having to rise from the chair to make it ' Q .A T. 7' L' visible, as in other so-called l'visible machines.

The writing being visible to the one dictating, he can always supply the next sentence at the right moment thus enabling the op- erator to accomplish a greater amount of work. The word-spacing is accomplished when the final letter of each word is printed, effecting a saving of twenty per cent. of time. The line spacing is automatic. An automatic line lock prevents the accumulation of characters at the end of a lineg a release key, however, allows the printing of four additionalcharacters when desired. Only one size of machineis required as along carriage can be in- serted for special work. The type is always in view, accesible for cleaning, and waste Gber caused by eraser does not clog the type or fall on the ribbon. A pointer indicates the exact location of the character to be printed and the writing may be removed temporarily, without disturbing the page for doing other work. lt will write paper an inch wide and do perfect writing at the very bottom ofthe sheet, but the approach- ing end of the page is always visible, preventing the liability of writing too low. A touch of the finger instantly adjusts the length ofthe line for tab- ular work. lt is a pleasure to address postals and envelopes on this machine, and speed heretofore unattained is easily possible. The ribbon is on removable spools and colors may be changed quickly without soiling the fingers. lt is not necessary when writing with the shift key depressed, to release it to get the period, comma, etc., while they can also be used without depressing the shift key. The entire connection from the key to the type is metal and the blow is struck on a platen, whose foundation is the earth, thus mak- ing the machine the best manifolder ever invented. The tendency of other platen machines being to lift the platen under a heavy blow. lt is the most nearly noiseless, the most durable, the simplest, does the best work, and is the best machine made. The black and white Celluloid keys are the least tiring to the eyes of any made and the size and shape of the keys are the most conven- ient for the operator, while the keyboard being 'tuniversalf' operat- ors on theleading keyed machines have no ditliculty in operating it. Remington operators, especially, find themselves at home on this machine. The Brooks weighs only I7 pounds, instead of 30 or 55 pounds and has only 6oo parts instead of 3,ooo. Seven Operators on the Brooks will do the work of It-n Operators on any ofthe other machines. The time saved will pay you to exchange your machines now in use for the Brooks. C. C. W.
