1 ton, in the county'of Stark and State of Ohio,' On the u d r sld f she t 1, which ls-the have invented;certain new and useful Imupper side of the duplicate slip 4when it is v 5' ements Manifold Pads orBooks, of folded under the original slip 3, are printed 6 fo on the? u licate it furthermore beingdesired to keep t e dupl whieh'the following is aspecification refer-' thesame words, l1nes, &c., whichappear, at ence being had therein to the accompanyin 7 upon the original sl1 the printing upon sdrawin f r the dupl cate slip being arranged to register 10" f This invention relates teen im rovement. 0r aline with thatof the original when the in manjfolding memorandum boo ,d duphcate 1s folded into its normal posltlon. It has for its object to rovide a b k r lheunder surface of the original slip or ad havin a seriesof original and duplicate sheet is coated with carbon or some suitable eaves 'eacioriginal leaf or sheet bein m mater al for transferring to the duplicate .whgt l ng thanthe sheet upon Winch th sheet indications of a1 1y'1mpress1ons or marks duplicate copies are taken in order that any made upon the orlgmal.

I nal sl p on the underside thereof, so that Figure 1 is a plan view of a ad b k the slip may be grasped at this part without '2 5 embodying mynnprovements. Fig. 2 is a d g r ofsolllllg the g rsside view of the sa e, I am aware of the fact that numerous 8c 1 In the drawing 1 represents as an en yl Of folding pads or books have i tir t trip orb ank ofpaper, fro hi h been devised provlded with original and'duthe original and duplicate sheets are formed. pllcate sheets attached together and detach- 30 This sheet is transversely folded intermediably boundin book or pad form and having ate of its longitudinal center and the lower the under side of the original coated so as to end thereof, as indicated at 2 soas to protransfer to the duplicate any marks made on vide an original or up er slip or sheet 3, the clean side of the original. However, in somewhat longer than t e lower or duplicate all of these earher constructions of which I 35 "sheet or slip 4, which is preferably folded up am aware either the sheets are separate from .1 soasto lie under sheet 3. each other at theirbottom edges or else. they lfhepa er along the line of'fold 2 may be are so connected to each other at their hot- -we93l1ene by perforation or in any other tom edges that the original sheet is folded suitable, manner to permit of the easy de over upon the duplicate sheet, and if the upiio tachability ofthe duplicate sheet 4 from the er free end of the original is not of the same p up er sheet 3. ength as the duplicateand bound with or 5 i 11 order to form a pad, a suitable number connected to the duplicate near the top of sheets which have been folded as above thereof there is a tendency for the originalto describedv are placed one upon the other in slip or slide laterally over the top of the du- .45 series and the originals or uppermost sheets plicate when the impressions are being madev -of each pair ofsllps are bound-together at upon it in theordlnary course ofwriting loo their upper free-ends, as indicated at 5. upon it, and consequently the impressions Each upper sheet may be perforated or upon the duplicate are blurred, 7 otherwise weakened on a transverse line, as In my im rovd form of pad the duplicate 5ov indicated at 6, in order to facilitate its reslip is folde under the original in such manmoval from the pad or book. ner that when the impression is made upon 1 5 At the upper end of the original slip or the original there is no possibility of making sheet may be printed any instructions, ada blurred or imperfect Impression upon the vertismg matter, or the like which is desired, duplicate, because the original is held in the f isterpor file record be placed in a safe or vau The duplicate should be made as short as ossible, so as to reduce as much as possible the length or depth of the filing tray or case in which the records of thetransaction noted upon the memorandum book or pad are to be he t.

in the recent development of credit regis' ters it has been found extremely desirable to economize as much as possible upon space necessary for the filing away and keeping account-records. This is particularly true where it is practically necessary that the re t during the hours when it is not in actual daily use, and it is for this reason, among others,

that I have found it desirable to have the slips which are to be filed for record by the operator of the manifold pad or book shorter than the one which goes to the customer.

It will be noted that in view of the fact that the duplicate is folded up under the original slip there will be considerable diiiiculty in inserting a sheet of carbon-paper between the original and duplicate slip each time it is desired to use the nianitolding-pml, and it is desirable that the under side of the original for substantially the length of the duplicate be coated, as above set forth, with some suitable manifolding substance.

W'hat I claim is 1. A manifolding-pad corn rising a series of superposed pairs of origina and duplicate slips, the duplicate slips being shorter than senses the original slips and each one being suitabl5 5 connected at its lower end to the lower end of the original slip above it, and the under surfaces of the original slips being coated with a suitable transfer substance, and means bind-- ing the original slips together near their upper ends.

2. In a inanifolding-pad, a plurality of sheets of paper bound together at their up )er free ends, each sheet being transversely to ded and wealrened intermediate of its ends to form an original slip and a duplicate slip of less length than the original slip and folded up thereunder, and a suitable transfer lnediuin interposed between the under surface of the original slip and the upper surface of the duplicate slip.

3. A pair of manifoldingslips formed from a single sheet of paper, transversely folded and weakened intermediate of its ends to form an original slip aud u duplicate slip of less length than the original slip and folded up thereunder, and the under side of said original slip being coated with a nianifolding substance for substaniiallythelcngth of the duplicate slip.

l. in a inanifolding-pad, a plurality of sheets of paper bound together at their upper free ends, each sheet being folded and weakened intermediate of its ends on :1 transverse line to form two slips, one shorter than the other, the shorter one being folded up under the lon er one, the space upon the longer slip above the upper end of the shorter slip being adapted for the printing of subject-matter not necessary on the shorter slip, and the un der side of the upper slip being coated with a suitable transfer substance.

in testimony whereof I ullix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
