who seeiu to hjivo. through ignorance
n- Uesi;:n, atfa hed to this ample meal
and ils attendant j^ood cheer a host
3f dishes and bevera;:es and customs
:hat really v.ere intended to extend
hn»ui;liout the Christmas season.
It is true tliat the Christmas dinner
In Kn.iilaiul since the time of Kin,i;
Henry VI1. certaiuly Las been an iai-
l)ortant feature of the season's fes
tivities. It was this elegant priuee
who. at his Christmas least, person
ally brought to table the boar’s head
luul placed it before bis son, the youug
prince. lie made a eeremouial ob
servance of this simple feature. He
was prccedetl, as he passed tirmly uj)
to the table, by trumpeters.
Whether Henry VII. was the first to
establish the custom c^iuuut now be
ascertained. Dut the custom obtain
ed throughout England in certain
(luarlers ever since. For ages the
custom has been followed at Oxford
university, and those who have dip
ped into the pleasant pages of Wash
ington Irving's “Old Christmas,” will
learn how the ceremony was conduct
ed In the early part of the last cen
tury, where, at Bracebridge Hall,
where Geoffrey Crayon was tl-j guest
the boar’s head was brought in by tbf
butler, supported on either side by a
liveried servant bearing a lighted can
die. There were the prescribed *‘strain.>>
of minstrelsy.”—New York Times.

I Yes, the crowning typewriter triumph is here!
' It is just out—iind ‘onies years before experts cxj)Oct(M] it.
For inalvors litivo sTriven a lit'e-liine to attain lliis i'ii-ul
jiuichiiie. And Oliver lia.^ won ai;ain, as we scored wlieii Vv(‘

CAUTION!
The new-day advances that come
alone on this machine are ail con-
trolk'd by Oliver. Even our own
previous models—famous in their
day—never had the Optional Duplex
Shift.
It puts the whole control ot 84
letters and characters in the little
fingers of the right and left hands.
And it lets you write them all with
only 28 keys, the least to operate
of any standard typewriter made.
Thus writers" of all other machines
can immediately run the Oliver
Number “9” with more speed and
greater ease.
WARNING!
This brilliant new Oliver eonu-s
at the old-time price. It costs no
more than lesser makes—now out of-
date when compared with this dis
covery.
For while the Oliver’s splendid
new features are costly—we have
equalized the added expense to us
by simplifying construction.
Resolve right now to see this
great achievement before you spend
a dollar for any typewriter. If \ u
are using some other make you will
want to see how much more this
one does.
If you are using an Oliver, it
naturally follows that you want the
finest model.
1 7 A O A Remember this brand-new Oliver “9” is the
• greatest value ever given in a typewriter. It
has all our previous special inventions—visible writing, automatic spacer. 6’ -c.unce
touch—plus the Optional Dupkx Shift, Selective Color Attachment and nil these
other ne.v-day features.
\et we have decided to sell it to everyone everywhere on our famous pavment
plan —17 cents a day! Now every user can easily affcrd to have the world’s crack
visible writer, with the famous PRINTYPE, that writes like print, incluucd FKKE if
desired.
