THE SONG OF THE NEW CENTURY The TWENTIETH CENTURY has arrived, not a minute late, And has brought us something that's strictly up-to-date ; That of which I speak in this little paragraph, Is the typewriter— "THE NEW CENTURY CALIGRAPH." It has a mimeograph device; well, really it is fine, And a variable space-release, for writing on a line, An easy moving margin-stop and tabulating locks , A firm ball-bearing carriage that never, never rocks. The escapement at the back is a marvel worth beholding , A short and steady type-bar built for manifolding. It has, above all others, what the world has longed for much — Oh, wonder of all wonders! That soft and velvet touch ! This is no idle boast, don't let me see you wink, If I tell you it will write as fast as you can think, And your letters will be written as they never were before, And the postman will be busy bringing orders to your door. — H. B. N. Disbrow.
