Goodyear-Marshall Bookkeeping.
Tliis system of business practice is now used in most of the
leading business colleges of America, and is undoubtedly the most
modern and practical system in use today. It is in complete har
mony with the methods employed in the best business offices and
will enable the student to keep any set of books in any line of
business. It is taught by actual business transactions nnd the
student’s time is not wasted in copying over and over imaginary
transactions from test books a:.d tablets. Quick results are se
cured and the student can save two to three mouths on a book
keeping course. Graduates of Bagwell Business College who en
tered since June 1st are now holding positions as cashiers of banks,
having studied the Goodyear Marshall system only three months.

major part of the time is thus spent on the typewriter. Any or

pupils of this system are holding good positions after six tveeks’
study.

produce four-weeks pupils who can write on the blackboard any ordinary
business letter at the rate‘of fifty word* per minute and read It back
without an error. A free scholarship will also be given If It can bo
shown that any school teaching any old system of shorthand will make
the same offer.

EIGHT-YEAR-OLD BOY
KILLED BY BROTHER
After ten day* on the rood, during
which trip she ate only a few meals
and slept only a few nights, and almost
lost her eyesight and did lose her hus
band. Mrs. Jennie Shook arrived In At
lanta Saturday morning from Chatta
nooga.
She wandered aimlessly around the
city all the morning until a kind police
man directed her to the city warden's
office.
Mrs. Shook Is aged 29 years. She Is
thin, very thin. She probably does not
weigh 85 pounds. Her clothes are
rngged nnd her shoes are worn at the
bottom and muddy. This Is the story
she told the city warden:
“Three years ago I married Charlie
Shook, a painter, In Chattanooga. We
got along well, but hero lately Charlie
couldn't get any work to do. We de
rided to rome to Atlanta, for Charlie
felt sure he'd get plenty to do here.
"We didn’t have no money, so we
stnrted out to walk. That was—let me
see—ten days ago. Well, we got neur
10 Altoona after eight days. I hadn't
ato much or slept much, and I couldn't
walk very fast. We could go Just a
few miles each day. We got some
folks in a little house two miles from
Altoona to take us In, and we slept
there.
‘‘Next morning Charlie woke me up
and said he was going on to Atlanta.
He told mn not to follow him, and said
If I did he'd take his gun and kill me. I
don't know what made him act that
way, but I didn't want to take no
chances on getting shot, so I let hint
go on.
“You see, I had already gone over
100 miles and was lots nearer Atlantn
than I was to Chattanooga. The good
man at the house, when he saw what a
bad fix I was In, gave me something to
eat, and took me In u wagon to Ac-
worth.
After I got to Acworth I got some
folks to pay my way to Atlanta. Now.
I want to go to Whltesburg, where my
folks stay.
I can't think of why my husband
left me. unless It wns because my eye
sight came pretty near giving out on
the way, and he didn’t want n blind
wife on his hands. My eyes are get
ting dimmer every day.”
City Warden Evans provided the lit
tle woman with a ticket to Whttes-
burg, nnd she will soon be back with
the old folks at home.
