Substituting a typewriter-like ap paratus which a stenographer could operate for the intricate system of the Morse code which required months of training, the Simplex printer really "typewrites by long- dis tance." The machine weighs but 70 pounds and is small and compact. The receiving set in a distant city receives the impulses transmitted over the wire letter by letter, in such a way that corresponding type-bars are pulled down, the message written on the dry side of gummed paper tape, this tape quickly cut off and glued to a telegraph blank for delivery.
