QERNI ONS, MEETINGS, COMMITTEES, & TRIALS
faithfully REPORTED, on moderate terms, by Mr.
ARTIS, PROFESSOR AND TEACHER OF SHORT-HAND.
Mr. A. has long been connected with the London press.
Parties desirous of receiving Instruction in the pleasing
Art of SHORT HAND, are informed that a List of Re-
ferences, containinz the names of the most distinguished
Members of both Universities, gentlemen of the press, and
others, may be had at 25, MOUNT-STREET, opposite the
Mechanics' Institution.

*** Reference to present Pupils.
The following is one of the many testirno.'; s in favour of
Mr. -A.'s method of Tuition. The addres- .f each gentleman
L.may be obtained on application at 25, le .unt-street :
to-day concluded t •• Course of Lessons
upon which we had entered, for the purpose of acquiring a
knowledge of the system of Short-Hand taught by you, we
feel much pleasure thus to express our united sentiments in
reference to the system itself, and to your manner of teaching.
The peculiar advantages we conceive to be, that of being ena-
bled at any period of time, easily to decipher what we may
have written, and this arises from the care taken, to give
to
every word its full sound, and thus to prevent several words
of distinct meaning being expressed, as in other systems, by
the same characters; and again, the constant, and generally
successful endeavour to make the preceding character assist
in the formation the next following, thus rendering the
writing of the characters comparatively easy; added to which,
is your practical knowledge, which enables the learner to ob-
tain much really useful information, not to Le elicited from
works on the subject. Entertaining these opinions, we can
confidently recommend you to any who may be desirous of
becoming Short-Hand-Writers, but who are fearful, from
the apparent difficulties, of never accomplishing their desired
object ; and, we shall feel most happy if we are made the
means, through this hastily written letter, of obtaining
classes for you.

We remain, yours, &c.,
