never wears out. Tho Dalton is built of the best materials money t
can buy and is constructed on tho best mechanical principles. And d
tho same simple construction that makes tho Dalton tho strongest, C
makes it the easiest and fastest for all adding, subtracting, multi- !
plying, dividing and other calculating work. You should compare o
tho Dalton Adding Machino with any other. A comparison will f

To the
Philadelphia Business Man '
These are days of rapid development in office devices,
but in Nothing has there been such an advance as in Under
wood Bookkeeping methods. Therefore your visit to the
Business Show this week will be unproductive in best
results if you fail to see a demonstration of the UNDER
WOOD BOOKKEEPING MACHINE. In the field of
mechanical recording this innovation in office appliances
occupies the same relative position as does the Underwood
Typewriter among correspondence machines. And you
will recall it is the Underwood that holds all International
records for speed, accuracy and durability.
The UNDERWOOD BOOKKEEPING MACHINE
keeps your books, makes out your bills, checks your trial
balances,' lists your daily records, computes your figures
and writes your letters.
You do not have to change your scheme of bookkeep
ing to use the UNDERWOOD BOOKKEEPING
MACHINE. It fits itself to YOUR methods.
The Underwood Typewriter booth, filled with
"Machines For Every Need," is the first thing that greets
you on entering the show.

You'll All Want to See
the Demonstration of the
SELFSTARTING REMINGTON
At the Philadelphia Business Show
t
This is the greatest of all modem typewriter improvements, t adds at least
25 per cent, to the speed of the typist in the writing of ordinary letters by cutting out
all the jtap, tap, tap and the fumble and fuss in setting the carriage. The carriage
practically sets itself. All that the operator does is WRITE.
But don't simply take our word for it. Come and see the demonstration, for to
see is to be convinced.
You will see lots of other interestinpr things at the Remington Booth. You will see the inot
complete line of typewriters in, the world a machine for every purpose, including the Remington
Accounting Machine (WahT Mechanism), which is the latest development of the Adding and Sub
tracting Typewriter.
