THE COLLEGIATE COURSE,
which is designed to embrace all branches
PURELY MERCANTILE, has been recently enlarg-
ed, and can now be regarded as one of the most
| L., y @lxAz
duced to the public in any similar institution
in the United States.
THE BOOKKEEPING DEPART
MENT
embraces three distinct grades. viz Initiate
ry, Regular and Extended Courses, and taught
on Folsom's New Method, recommended by
| over twenty of the most reliable practical Ac-
countants of Cleveland.
THE NEW METHOD OF TEACHING
strikes at the very terminating points of the
! Science, revealing the great natural twofold
division of tie Ledger, whereby is seen the pro-
per line of demarcatioT. between Real and Rep
| resentatve property, and the governing law
of transfer, as regards its affecting the two
classes of accounts. and those of the same class
in every variety of transactions, thus stripping
| this most useful and beautiful science of much
of its time honored mysteries, made such by
| arbitr ary and infallible rules, meaningless
| forms and false notions and hence enables the
| student to acquire correct notions of accounts
as embodied in actual practice.
THE MILITARY COURSE
embraces regularly progressive series or man
| uscript cards, classified somewhat as to the
variety of transactions. 1t aims to develop
the first principle and philosol by of Accounts
| rather than mere routine and actual formula
| by addressing the reason and Judgment of the
| Stu kr fbor r;a of
hending and arriving at results, and so push
es on hi Investigations with much greater con
fdence, pleasure and independence.
THE REGULAR COURSE.
| is intended 20 represent every species of bust
ness, from the smallest Retail to the heaviest
and most intricate Wholesale and Commission
as well as Banking, Railroading, de-, demand
ed, present, by our vast and constantly in
creasing Commerce
THE EXTENDED COURSE
embraces lengthy practical sets from the vari
Gus business firms, as is designed for such stu
dents as may wish to spend longer than the
time required by the Regular course, (and thai
gratuitously,) preparatory to entering some
special House.
By taking in addition, the Extended Course
the student will be faithfully and proftably
employed six months.
Penmanship, practical and ornamental, in al
its varieties, will be taught in the most thor
ough and efficient manner by one of the bes
teachers in the West. Besides the usual meth
cd of teaching Business Writing, the Chyr
| hythmographic system will also be taught
| This system, so popular and recommended by
our best educational men, is now taught in the
public schools of Cleveland, Columbus and
| Toledo. Many other places are open for good
teachers of Chyrhy biography as soon as they
can be qualified.
DAILY LECTURES on Practical and The
oretical bookkeeping, Mercantile Laws, Com
mercial Ethics, political Economy, Art of Com
putation, Commercial Calculations, Mercan-
tile Customs, Banking, Exchange, Commerce

Correspondence, Penmanship &c.
The new suite of rooms of this College occu-
pies the finest location in the city. situated as
they are ON the corner of public Square and Su-
perior street, affcrding fair view of most parts
of the city and the lake. The rooms are neat
ly and tastcfully furnished, surprising in
beauty and convenience perhaps those of any
similar Institution in the Union.
THE LADIES' COURSE
is the same as that of the Gentlemen, afford
ing equal facllitiesto all Ladies who may wish
to avail themselves of the Commercial Course.
The Principal, having an extensive business
acquaintance. is enabled to secure good situa-
tions for many of his graduates.
