Robot Assorts Millions of Cards Ingenious Device Solves Disagreeable Problem. almost Impossible to keep help on the tedious and monotonous grind or sorting and filing remittance electrical ma stubs. The chine was developed. Operation of the newest robot Is so simple that it requires the services of only one person. When the names, and addresses are stenciled on the bills, a number Is printed also. This number guides the sort ers In classifying the stub when returned. With the new sorting ma chine, this same principle Is carried out, except a simple printed code Is substituted for the numbers. By this system of code, it Is possible to get more than loo.ooo.ooO cm blnntlons of numbers on a card IVi Inches wide by 3'4 Inches long, and still have enough room for customer's name and address. Cards are plnced In the feeding receptacle and a weight Is placed on top of the cards exerting pressure on the bottom card. This lower card Is then picked up by a device covered with live rubber, uhlch operates effectively even with badly mutilated cards, and pushes It for ward under the gaze of the "electric eye which Is focused on a sKt over which Ihe card must pass and thus the coded number Is read before routing the card to Its prop er place.

These coins were known as to abbreviated "Joaehlmsthalor," "thaler." In the low German this became "duler," nnd-t- o the F.nglish "dollar." Before the Nineteenth century coins often circulated with little for national boundaries. Some types of coins, because of the quality of their manufacture, came to be especially well known and to be accepted as an International standard. The florin, for Instance, first minted In Florence In 12.VJ, was later adopted as an Austrian, a Dutch and an English coin. It Is In this same manner that a little valley In the recesses of the Bohemian mountains came to give Its name to the monetary unit of Prussia, before the establishment of the German empire. Other countries adopted dollars In their currency, and the name wan next applied to other coins of weight and fineness similar to the dollar. The famous Spanish "piece of eight fight reals came to be called a dollar, and this became the most widely circulated of all the early dollars. It Is the Spanish "pieces of eight" which gave us our standard coin. In the days of the Spanish colonial empire In America, the ''Spanish milled dollar" circulated as freely In the F.nglish colonies as In the Spanish, and became the principal medium of exchange . throughout the western hemisphere. The United Slates ndopted Its dol lar currency under the coinage act of 1792. The United States wnnted to be Independent of Great Britain even In Its currency, and Jt turned to the Spanish example rather than the British, and a decimal system was decided upon Instead of the Brit Ish calculation of shilling and pence. The Spanish dollar had been divided into eight, but that of the United States was divided into, a hundred fractions, "cent"' being from ami French words for ' hundred." one-eye- West is d robot that ;nn read and assort millions of or dlnary printed cards at a high rate of speed.
