A FEW ADVANTAGES. 



I. -No skill requireil. The 

 work being done hv the 

 Machine automat icnilv, a 

 no^ ice can at once obtain per- 

 fect ixipies. 



J. —Great uniformity of 

 copies. The pressure Iicin^ 

 constant •'ind regular, the 

 c«.>pics are all alike. 



3.— The process of re-inkintf 

 is made much easier i

4.— Equally adapted for re- 

 priHlucing- written or type- 

 written matter. 



5. — Great spet^d in taking 

 copies. It is only necessary 

 to turn a linndle which lifts 

 and lowers the frame, and time 

 is gained by having^ a less 

 number \^i re-inkinps. 



6.— The difRculties which 

 frequently .irisc in the working

 cntirelv dispensed with in the
