eyes. Each line however, is re

first thild is disclosed by a sliding
shutter, then that part is covered
and the second third becomes vis

This machine is an invaluable aid
in overcoming habits of "lingering
and going back" which cause loss
of time and efficiency in reading.
It has variable speed ranging from

usually at about 200 words per
