LESSONS n SHORTHAND.


Shorthand lie coming 40 much into de-
mand that Il has been decided 10 publish
a course Of instructive lessons in the coll
umns OF this paper. These lessons will
DO for tho benefit OF all readers, old or
young. 1t is very pleasant 20 know how
20 write Short hand; besides, IL pays.
A stenographer Is required to-day in
every business house. Tho supply Of
competent writers is not equal 20 the de-
mand Shorthand is both useful as an
accomplishment, and profitable as call
ing. Every business and professional
man would flnd a system OF brief writing
useful every day--hlmost every hour.
There are several reasons why Short
hand is not Understood by moro people
In the first place there are comparatively
few teachers, and they are Tor the most
part located In largo cities, and charge
high price for instruction. In the second
place most people imagine Shorthand to
De 20 terribly hard that they will not so
much AZ give Il trial. II 10 fact, how
ever. that the system has been so simpli-
ncd in late years that there lie no GOOD
reason at all why any ono OF average In
tolligence should not learn the art in
few months, II he works under proper
guidance.
II ~ our belief that u clear and easy
instructions could be obtained by young
people right at their homes, thousands
would take hold and learn Il without dii-
Hculty, and be benefited by IL all their
lives. Recognizing the Importance OF the
subiert. and the need OF a cheap home
study course, ono especially adapted TO
the Young, we have decided 70 publish
this series OF lessons. We have secured
the services OF one OF the most skilled
and best known OF American teachers Of
stenosraphy, 70 edit these lessons and
take charge OF She work as class con-
ductor.
This course will comprise twelve easy
lessons giving the popular Pitman Sys-
tenn In n nut. shell. These lessons will
begin in lust three weeks. They will be
found well adapted TO seli-instruction.
A large number OF clubs or circles, each
composed OF half a dozen members, more
