PHON0GRAPHY


Is 90 simple and easy that Its principles can 81 be
learned in q few hours and Small amount Of prsc-
tico will enable one TO it for The daily purposes 81
life.
None but those who are acquainted with II can
form any lea Of It's great brevty and simplicity or
Of the case with which it can be learned. But what
~ Photography Il is system Of short hand writing,
which cen be written ten times as fast as the common
writing, read az easily, and learned with far less
trouble.
Il s used not only by Reporters but By hundreds Of
thousands in this country and in England for private
writing for IMPOSITION, for taking testimony etc.;
IN courts for sermons, for correspondence for book
keer1g, etc, etc by LADIES' by Students by Clerks,
by Cergymen, by Lawyers, etc., and is rapidly COM
ing into general use.
AZ labor saving invention, its value can scarcely
be estimated, and requires but little time to learn
10 use it for the daily purposes Of life But the OBJ
lection il made that others cannot read i'll Well then
let them spend few hours TO learn IL, for where Is
the Justice in requiring the active and intelligent TO
spend ten days in doing what they might do none,
merely TO save the mdOent few hours effort In
learning thing which would be useful TO them for
lief Tho time when but few persons could
write their names but the progress of the age de-
nands a more rapid method Of writing, and while
the active and intelligent MUST and WILL hgve the
advantages Of Photography, the indolent must sub
NIT to the disadvantage caused by their own indo-
leDce.
The ease with which It can be brought into profit
able and daily use ia shown by the following cert6
Gates It is only those who are tgHorast Of it who
ever speak egainstit.

Ne. J. W. Do1BEAR:
SIR: The few lessons took from you some time
since in Photography, have enabled me TO save more
than twohrds Of the labor in preparing my sermons
and have doubt Il will soon enable me to save
threefourths OF it. have never spent time more
probably than IA its attainment, and feel perfectly
free in recommending II to Cergymen generally, as
rnesns by which vast amount Of time may be saved
and that too with far less effort than is generally sup
posed. Its principles are few and simple, Of easy
attainment and suited to the full expression Of every
word in the language, either for present per

NASHVILLE, August l, 1853.
In about six months from the time began the
study Of Photography, with less than one-third OF
said time devoted 70 its attainment, was employed
As Reporter for the United States Beard Of Claims.
Tho faithful teaching Of Mr.. J. ". Dobear, Of Nash
vile, and the study and practice Of the concise, COM
prehensive, and tudciously arranged monographs
books o. Ben Pitman, OF Cincinnati, have thus easily
enabled me 10 make Photography practically useful
It's principles are quickly mastered, and know Of
nothing that young persons learn with equal pros
pect Of immediate and profitable employment.
The Secretary Of War has ordered, July 9th, 1858,
In General Order No. 20S, phonographic reporters
employed under the authority Of the 10Th section Of
the act Of Congress, approved March 3, 1858, win be
allowed not exceeding ten dollars per day., etc. This
viii Of course greatly increase the demand for Re

NASHVILLE, August 4, 1893.
In January last Mr.. J. W. Dolbear gave, free o.
charge 3 course Of lessons ia Photography and Wri-
ting 70 mysel and many other wounded soldiers in
Hospital No. 20. Tedious hOurs were thus charged
70 pleasant and profitable ones. We value highly
our knowledge Of Photography, and those who have
left the Hospital correspond In IL With those who
have not. ". & DerviB, Of Company =, 18th " s.
A., who returned home disabled for life from bis
wounds writes that he is teaching Photography, and
finds Il so profitable that he would not take 5000
for what be learned from Mr. D. think both soldiers
and Office would find the learning Of Il profitable
employment for their leisure time in camp or hospt
tai, without detriment 10 other duties.

II Photography were taught 70 eyeHy soldier IN the
army Ar. ID. believes most Of them would TAlue It
Rs highly the pay they receive from the Govern
ment without in the least interfering with their du-
ties es soldiers.
Hon THoNAs b. BESroH said IN Congress:
tHad ths art been known forty years $50, Is would
have saved ne twenty years Of hard labor"
If Photography Is thus valuable IN saving 90 large
an amount Of lifetime, should not every child have
It's vast advantages especially when they be had
/ si 50 emaR an expense Of time and money! II u
would have saved twenty years Of hard labor 70 the
life Of ono man. should years q hard labor be brought
upon others for the want OF hiessing a such cay
