those on a typewriter and pulling a
lever. You finally have tue col
umn of figures printed and added
on a strip of paper which runs
through the rear of the machine.

My "Oh! I never rubber. I often make
a mUUkc iinil butt in when it sounds
like my ring, but I never care to hear
I what other my."
Just to have some fun one tlay I went
to the 'phone anil culled up my own
' uiuulicr, then took down the receiver
j anil waited for remits. In one minute

I sometime pity Central when the is
