PHONOGRAPHY

is simple ard easy that It's principles can all be
learned in a few hours, aud small amount OF prac-
tice will enable TO use II for the daily purposes Of
life.
None but those who are acquainted with It can
form any lea OF its great brevty aud simplicity, or
of the ease with which It can be learned. But what
is PhOnng aphy2 Il is system Of short hand writing
which can be written ten times FAST as the common
writing, read as easily, and learned with far less
trouble.
IL Is used not only 10y Reporters but by hundreds of
thousands in this country and in England for private
writing, for ton, for taking testimony etc;;
in courts for sermons, for correspond nce, tr book
keep pg etc, etc by aides, by Stldents by Clerks,
by Clergymen, BY Lawyers, etc , and rapidly com
ing into general use
As labor saw invention, its value can scarcely
be estimated, aud It requires but little time 70 learn
TO Il for the dailv purposes of lie. But the OBJ
ictiOn is made that others cannot read ~ Well then
lot them spend few hours to leatn IL. for whore is
the Justice in requiring the active and intelligent to
spend ten days in doing what they ght do in one,
merely 60 save the indolent few hours effort In
learning th ng which would be useful TO them for
liiey The tine was when but few persons could
write their nance, but the progress Of the age de
mands a more RAPID method of writing, and while
the active aud INTEL gent MUST aud have the
advantage Of Photography, the indolent must sub
init to the disadvantage caused by their own ndo-
lenoe
Tho ease with which it can be brought INTO profit
able and daily use is shown by the following csrtiH
Gates. 1t is only those who are ignorant Of it who
ever speak againstit

Nix. J. W DoLBEAR:
SIX The few Lessons took from you some time
since in Photography, have enabled me to save more
than thirds OF the labor In preparing my Sermons
aud have no doubt II will coon enable me 10 save
three iourths OF n. have never spent time more
probably than In ts attainment ana feel perfectly
Tree in recommending il 90 Clergymen generally, as a
means by which vast amount Of time may be saved
aud that with far less effort than is generally sup
posed. Its principles are few and ST pie Of easy
abatement aud suited 10 the full expression Of every
word in the language either for present use or per
u anent record. Yours respectfully

enabled me 20 make Photography practically useful.
