ERE Monarch "THE extremely light action of the Monarch Typewriter endears it to all operators who use it. The typist who takes pride in her position finds great satisfaction in being able to turn out as much work, and as yood work, per hour, toward the end of the working day as during the morning. Other conditions being the same, she can always do this on a Monarch. There is. is cone ey “No Three O° oO’ "Clock for users of this machine, The mechanical reason for the Monarch light touch is found in the action of the Monarch type bar, an exclusive and patented feature which gives this re- markably light touch. We would remind the business man that Monarch light touch means more work and better work, because less physical strength is expended by the operator. Therefore, cost per folio is reduced, mak- ing the Monarch a business economy. SEND FOR MONARCH LITERATURE Then try the Monarch, and be convinced that Monarch merit rests in the machine itself, not merely in what we tell you about it.

Formerly the cheapest set cost twice as much as the new edition, yet the Author’s National Edition contains the same number of volumes and the same text, word for word, as the higher priced set. Its paper and binding are of good sub- stantial quality. The illustrations are by the same artists represented in expensive sets. We believe that never before in the history of publishing has so good a set of the copy- righted books of a great author been offered at so low a price. The price is possible because the popularity of Mark Twain assures a tremendous sale. "Tis AUTHOR’S NATIONAL EDITION (Houghton, Mifflin Co., Bos- mer. (R. G. Badger, Boston, Mass. $1.00.) $1.00.)
