THE typewriter that is found in the average drug store serves a multitude of purposes. In a single day it may have to be used for writing letters, telegrams, checks and labels; for cutting stencils; for addressing envelopes; for filling out index cards; and for making out invoices.

To do these many things in the shortest possible time the machine must have certain mechanical conveniences for quickly changing from one class of work to another.

The L. C. Smith & Bros. typewriter possesses these necessary devices. It is so constructed that it enables the operator to do more work and a greater variety of work.

To familiarize druggists with the advantages claimed for the machine, the L. C. Smith & Bros. Typewriter Co., Syracuse, N. Y., offers to send free of charge a catalogue describing its "Silent Smith" Model 8, in which 50 to 75 per cent of the ordinary typewriter noise is eliminated.
