Schools of National Reputation. Draugljpn’s Practical Business Col leges, located at Atlanta, Nashville, St. Louis, Montgomery, Little Rook, Port Worth, Galveston and Shreveport, are schools of national reputation. They are strongly endorsed by business men from Maine to California. Prof. Draugh- on, who is author of four tqxt-books oh Bookkeeping, and proprietor of these in stitutions, doubtless expends more mon ey for securing positions for his students than almost any one business college in this country takes in as tuition. He guarantees positions under" reasonable conditions, and will allow a student to deposit money in bank till the cousre is completed and position secured. Four weeks course of Bookkeeping in his col leges is equal to twelve weeks in any col lege that does not employ his improved methods of teaching. His Colleges also offer special advantages in Penmanship, Shorthand, Typewriting, etc. It is gen erally conceded by those who are in po sition to know that Prof. Draughon’s success in the Business College work has been greater than that of any one else. His superior course of instruction and his special facilities for securing posi tions are almost an offset to competition where the merits of his work are known. His illustrated catalogue will explain all. Send for it. Address J.
