LINE RULING
Lines, either vertical or horizontal, and
in any color, may be ruled upon paper
whilst it is in the machine, and without
the aid of a ruler. Ordinarily, any neces
sary ruling is left of course, until it can
be uone in the usual way, but is usually
forgotten.
REMOVABLE CARRIAGE
The carriage is removed from the mi

instantly, without manual interferences
with any fastenings whatever, and is ust
as easily replaced.
PAPER RELEASE
By a single movement absolute freedom
is given to the paper, leaving it to be
either straightened or otherwise moved
in any desired position. No force is nec
essary, consequently no soiling or tearing
of the paper occurs.

The Oliver typewriter will feed the

A WORD ON INVOIC1NQ

to the full the value of the Oliver for tab

(known as "tabulators") have been de
vised, it is true, to assist them, but so
much time is lost in "setting" the mech
anism, to which must be added the con
stant raising of the carriage (occasioned
by the operator s lack of confidence in the
tabulator), that the invoice could very well
vntten by hand in hair the time. Fur
thermore, tabulators on other than Oliver

THIN AND NOW
We all know the typewriter has come
to stay. We discovered that long ago.
It is only a question which tp writer, for
the word is well and truly used in the
singular sense.
The typewriter that has come to stay is
not the one of ten years back, when in
novation caused such a stir in business
circles. Then nobody ever thought of as
sociating the word "alignment" with a
typewriter; it satisfied the user so long as
the machine would write some fashion or
other, and with constant break-downs
ever-present repair bills were paid smil
ingly. Bjt things are different now
i une tests au tilings, i he business man
has become wise. He wants what he
pays for. He has learned the value (from
dearly-bought experience) of a machine
which will write properly, not only the
day it is bought, but perpetually.
He also wants to be satisfied upon the
peculiarities of the many machines now
before the public. The individual claims
of our product places its position beyond
all question, and the few particulars we
give on the following pages will, no doubt
be found of interest to those buyers who
"want what they pay for"
ABOUT THE OLIVER
The No. 3 Model, which has secured
such a firm foothold on the universal
markets, constitutes what is reckoned as
the most perfect typewriter possible.
WHY?
Here is our answer -IT
WRITES IN SIGHT
There is no carriage to lift; no con
structional parts to peer over. Your
work is there right before you.
ALIGNMENT
Each type-bar is a double or U-shaped
one and the alignment is secured thereby.
No slots or so-called "guides" are neces
sary to preserve the alignment of the
Oliver. The U-shaped type-bar does it.
SIMPLICITY
In the construction of the Oliver less
than one-half the usual number of parts
is employed, consequently what there is
to learn is learnt quickly.
MANIFOLDING
The freedom of the Oliver type-bar
permits of any desired force, so that in
heavy manifolding equally good results
are obtained first to last copy.
From one to twenty copies can be
made simultaneously, without materially
increased exertion.
STENCILING
No extra-heavy touch is needed to cut
a perfect stencil on the Oliver. The or
dinary touch is sufficient therefore all
risk of "cuttingout" isavoided. The type
of the Oliver cut the finest stencils pos
sible. OPERATION
The Oliver never tires. It operation
s a pleasure, even when used without

vital parts of the typewriter itself, render
ing it very unreliable for ordinary use.
The Oliver is the ideal machine for in
voicing. With its visible writing, per
manent printing point indicator and per
fect release key, margins are instantly
found and maintained all with greatest
simplicity. No tabulator is necessary on
the Oliver, but if one is wanted, we sup
piy in best tabulator made. Hear in
mind, however, that we save extra cost
and give better results.
Again, with the wonderful manifolding
power of the Oliver, it will make as man
copies of an invoice as required, and every
copy clear and distinct.
