PHONOGRAPHY

Is 30 simple and easy that It's principles can all be
learned In few hours, and a small amount Of prsc.
tice viii enable one 70 uae It for the daily purposes Of
life.
None but those who are acquainted with # can
form any iiea Of It's great brevty and Simplicity or
Of the ease with which il be learned. But what
Is PhonOgraphyf II 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.
1t is used not only BY Reporters but by hundreds Of
Thousands in this country and IN England for private
writing, for composition, for taxing testimony, etc
ia courts, for sermons for correspond danoe for book
keeping, etc, etc by ladies', by Students by Clerks
by CergyInen, by Lawyers, ETC., and is rapidly com
ing into general use.
As labor sayag invention, its value can scarcely
be estimated, and it requires but little time TO learn
70 use 1t for the daily purposes Of life. But the OBJ
lection made that others cannot read 1T Well then
let them spend few hours 70 learn it, for where is
she justice in requiring the sctve and intelligent 70
spend ten days in doing what they might do IN one,
merely 20 save the indolent few hours effort IN
learning thing which would be useful to them for
life3 The time was when but few persons could
write their Names but the progress Of the age de-
mands a more rapid method Of writiug. and while
the active and intelligent mUsT aud VIII have the
advantages Of Photography, the indolent must sub
init 70 the disadvantage caused By their own indo-
lcnce.
The ease with which It car. be brought into prast
able and daily use is shown By the following oeriia

sIR: The few lessons took from yoa some time
since in Pbonography, have enabled me 20 save more
thsntw0thrds Of the labor in preparing my sermons
and have no doubt It win soon enable me to save
three-f -fouFths OF II. have never spent tine more
proAtably than in its attainment, and feel perfectly
lree in recommending il to Clergynou generally, as
meaDSby which vast amount Of time may be saved
and that TOO with far less effort than is generally sup

In about siE months from The time I began The
study Of Photography, with less than one-third of
said time devoted 90 lis attainment, was employed
as Reporter for the United States Beard Of Claims
Tie faithful teaching Of hr J. ". Doibear, Of Nash-
VILE and the study aud practice Of the concise com
preheusiye and judiclously arranged Photographic G
books Of Ben Ptnsn, Of Cincinnati have thus easily
enabled me 20 make Photography practically useful.
tt principles are quickly mastered and ! know Of
nothing that young persons can learn with equal pros
pect Of Immediate and profitable employment.
