''To the professional man and indeed to every one
whose pursuits in life call upon him record Incl
dents or thoughts it is one of the great labor wing
machines of the age; and like ali such machines that
really good, 1t does better work than be done
without it,"
W. F. STEARNs, Professor Of Governmental Science
and Lar, in the University Of Mississippi, says.
Photography, as taught by Mr.. DoIBEAR, is no con-
fused collection of arbitrary characters is supposed
by many, but beautiful, harmonious, philosophical
and rational system. based upon principles which
simple that child understand them readily
when illustrated and explained by competent in
structor such as know Mr.. Dolbear TO be- Bays of
10 years of age were members of the same class
with myself, and the rapdity with which they pro-
crossed was wonderful &c me.
Not more than twenty -four hours think have been
spent by me in practice and receiving lessons and yet
! am surprised To find thai already can write more
rapidly in the photographic style than in the ordinary
method. With little daily practice, am confident
hat in a few weeks, Photography will effect for a
avng of at least three fourths of the time lose at
resent in the process of committing my thoughts TO
aper. We're it possible TO enforce the requisition |
muot doubt that our colleges and professional schools
nuld not otherwise eectually promote the inter
is Of education as by making certain degree OF
roiciency IN photography, prerequisite to the ad-
lission of every Pupil.

press Of official engagements, from attending more
than half of his of lessons yet my progress
has been such To enable b tn 70 read and
write in the Characters employed with astonishing
readiness.
i not less pleased with the beauty and simplici-
~ of the system, and its admirable adaptation the
wants Of the community, than surprised and delight
ed at the ease with which its principles be
ed, by child, when accompanied by the panoram-
ic illustrations and explanations of Mr. Rolbcar.
cannot but think that if its merits were known il
would be ut once adopted by adults and parents would
not permit their children TO be without this abprs
ing invention; especially when they reflect that its
principles can be mastered in a few hours
