Concluding Remarks.
In concluding this little treatise, the author begs to state and challenges any reporter in America to gainsay his remarks, that wherever a typewriting machine can be used, Stenotypy surpasses in speed and legibility, every known system of shorthand. Indeed, all forms of manual shorthand must inevitably become obsolete. The trolley does not more excel the old "buss," or bob-tail horse-car, than Stenotypy the impracticable and arduous systems of phonography and stenography. It almost trebles the speed of ordinary typewriting; whilst reading exercises, owing to the frequency of capitals, are more legible than common book-print. To prove this only one week's study of the system is necessary. In the foregoing exercises. the reader, even though unacquainted with shorthand, can see at once, that it requires a less number of motions of the hand to write a phrase by Stenotypy than to express the same after Pitman, Graham, Pernin, Munson, McKe and such inventors. Writing at a speed of 150 words a minute, no human hand can properly observe two positions above, two below, and one on the line, as McKee, in his "New Rapid " teaches, whilst the shading, the loops
