THE COLLEGE COURSE,
which is designed to embrace all branches
PURELY MERCANTILE, has been recently enlarged
and can now be regarded as one of the most
lengthy, thorough aud complete ever intro
duccd to the public in any similar institution
in the United States.
THE BaoA-A EEPING DEPART-
MENT
embraces three distinct grades, viz: Tnitia:ory,
! Regular and Extended Courses and taught on
Folsom's NEW METHoD. recommended by over
TWENTY of the mostreliable PRAcTIcAL ACCOUNT
ANTS of Cleveland.
THE NEW METHOD OF TEACHING
strikes at the very terminating points of the
Science, revealing the great-ne#e#altWn=fnld
division of the Ledger, whereby Is seen the
proper line of demarkation between Real and
Representative Property and the governing
law of as regards If 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 timehonored mysteries, made such by al
bitrary and infalliblc rules, meaningless forms
and false notions and hence enables the stu
dent to acquire correct notions of accounts as
embodied in actual practice.
THE INITIATORY COURSE
embraces a regularly progressive series Oman
uscript cards, classified somewhatas to the va
rietv of transactions. 1t aims to develop the
frsf principles and philosophy of Accounts,
rather than mere routine and actual formula,
by addressing the reason and judgment of the
student, who studies with the view of appre-
hending and arriving at results, and so pushes
on his Investigations with much greater conf
dence, pleasure and Independence.
THE KEGGLAFS COURSE
is intended to represent every species of bust
ness. from the smallest Retail to the heaviest
and most intricate of Wholesale and Commits
sion, as well as Banking, Railroading, ETC., de-
manded, at present, by our vast ana constants
" increasing Commerce.
THE EXTENDED COURSE
embraces lengthy practical sets from the vari-
ous business firms, and is designed for such
Students as may wish to spend longer than the
time required by the Regular Course, (and
that gratuitously) preparatory to entering some
| sDccial House.
Ry taking in addition the Extended Course,
the student will be faithfully and proftably
employed six months.

| PRAcr1cAL AND ORNAMENTAL, in all its varieties,
will be taught in the most thorough and eff
| Gent manner by one of the best teachers in the
| West. Besides the usual method ofteaching
Business Writing, the ChirhythmographicSys-
TEN will also be taught. This system, so pop
ular. and recommended by our best education
al men, is now taught in the Public Schools OF
