Elmer Gwin Invents New Typewriter Stand.

Elmer Gwin has applied for a pat-' ent for a swinging typewq-iter stand, which, it would seem ought to take well with the users of typewriter machines and also prove a good thing for Mr. Gwin. The stand is really a swinging bracket, and fastens to the corner of a desk. The main tipright rod, to which the clips are attached and fastened to the desk, has a small bevel pinop at the top which works in a small cog connected with the framework of the oilcloth cover of the machine. In swinging the bracket around in position to operates the machine, the cover is automatically raised and carried over to the back out of the way. In swinging the bracket back to put the machine out ot the way, again, the cover is automatically, raised and closes down over the type- f writer. It is a very simple and convenient device and keeps the type-' writer covered from the dust at all times when not in use, and can be sold complete at a vary small price. 1
