Wlnslow of Boston, who chilms a patent for his conception of how to do It. Ho holds that If one has to read pages on ono sldo of a book only, this will bo hrld moro easily, tho' eyes will not wander, thcro will bo no necessity for chnnglng tho position of head and neck when pnsslng from ono pago to another. Thus rending, especially espe-cially of big, heavy volumes, will bo less fatiguing not only to tho eyes, head and neck, but also to tho arms nnd hands. Mr. Wlnslow's idea Is to print a book so that you read straight ahead from right-hand pago to right-hand page,, theso being numbered consecutively; then, when you have road through to tho last right-hand page, you turn the book upsldo down and contlnuo reading ns before, what In ordinary books aro left-hand pages now being right-hand pages. This, of course, involves printing print-ing nil left-hand pages upsido down and numbering thorn consecutively from tho back of tho book. This would easily bo arranged by tho printer In laying out tho forms, though to get the pagination ot a largo book correct would rcqulro somo nlco calculation on tho printer's parL |
