learned in few hours, and small smount Of pTaG-

None bat those who are acquainted with It can
form any lea Of its great brevity and eimpclty or
Of the ease with which it can be learned But what
s Ph0nographyf Il s system Of short hand writing
which can be written ten times as fast the common
writing, read Is easly, and learned with far less
trouble.
It a used not only By Reporters but by hundreds Of
thousands IN this country and ii England for private
writing, for composition, for taxing testimony, etc
in courts, for sermons, for correspondence for book
keeping, eto, etc By Ladies', By Students, by Clerks
BY Cergymen, by Lawyers, ETC., and Is rapidly com
ing into general use.

be estimated and Il requires but ttle time to learn
70 use II for the daily purposes OF life But the OBJ
ecton mado that others cannot read it Well then
let them spend few hours 70 learn It, for whore is
the justice IN requiring the active and Intelligent 70
spend ten days in doing what they might do in one,
merely to save the indOleDt 3 few hours EFFORT In
Learning thing which would be useful 70 them for
Hfef TIE time was when but few persons could
write their names, but the progress Of the sge de-
mands more rapid method Of writiug, and while
the active and intelligent E0sT and WILL have the
advantages Of Pbonography, the iRdolent must sub
nit to the disadvantage caused By their Own indo-
ienoe.
Ths esse with which Il can Be brought into profit
able and daily use is shown By the following oertia-
caies. It Is only those who ien0raBt Of it who
ever speak against it.
