TIN /TYPEWRITER

A curiosity in the shape of a typewriter weighing one ounce, produc-

ed from the waistcoat pocket, was shown to a scientific audience in Boston, U.S.A., by Dr. H. E. Weth-erell

So expert in the manipulation of this machine, his own invention, has the doctor become, that he can write 17 words a minute. '

The typewriter has a wheel equip-

ped with rubber letters, and, when operated, is held-between the fingers and upon the paper.
