The good type-designer therefore realises that, for a new fount to be successful, it has to be so good that only very few recognise its novelty. If readers do not notice the consummate reticence and rare discipline of a new type, it is probably a good letter." It is now generally recognized that in the creation of_ Times Roman _Morison successfully met the qualifications of this theoretical doctrine_. _Composed, printed, and bound by_ H. WOLFF, _New York.
