Bazaar opens at 2 p. m.

CAUTION!
The rew-day advances that come
alone on this machine are all con
trolled by Oliver. Even our own
previous modtls—famous in their
day—never had flic Optional Duplex
Shift.
It inits the whole control ot 81
letters and characters in the little
finders of the right and left hands.
And it lets you v/rite them all with
only 28 keys, the least to operate
of any standard tj'pewritcr made.
Thus writers t.f all other machines
can iir.medirrtely run the Oliver
r “9” with more speed and
jrrfator er.se.
WARNING!
This brilliant nev/ Oliver eomes
at the old-time price. Ir. costs no
more than lesst-r makes—now out-of-
date v/hen compar-d with this dis
covery.
For v/hile tl;c Oliver’s rplendid
new :.rt‘ ( stiy--we have
equalized the added expense to us
by simplifying construction.
Resolve* right now to see this
groat achievement before you spend
a dollar for any typewriter. If you
are i;?int? some other make you will
war.t to see how much more this
one does.
If you are using an Oliver, it
naturally follows that you want the
finest model.
