MEMORY
Wholly unlike artificial systems. Any book learned in one reading.
"Prof. Loisette gave me a new memory."-Hon. Judah P. Benjamin. "It has greatly strengthened my natural memory."-Hon. W. W. Astor, late U. S. Minister to Italy. "Prof. Loisette's system appears to me to warrant the strongest indorsement."-John C. Minor, M.D. "I regret that it did not form a part of the curriculum of our schools."- Stephen Rand, Esq., Paymaster of the United States Navy. "There is not one institution of learning in the land that would be without its aid if its worth were known."-Rev. A. J. McInerney, Rector of St. Mary's Church, Annapolis. "I have formed one class by cor- respondence, am now forming a second, and have decided that hereafter I shall try to induce all my students to master this system before they engage in their linguistic studies under my direction."-Rev. Francis B. Denio, Professor of Hebrew in the Bangor Theo- logical Seminary.
"Since learning your System, I find I can soon learn to play any piece of music without notes, a feat impossible to me formerly."-Eliza Cawthorne. "By his System I have already learned one book in one reading, and I intend to learn many more in the same way." -Sir Edward H. Meredyth, Bart. "I confidently recommend your system to all who desire to strengthen their memory and cure their mind wandering."-Bernard Ellis, Esq. "It is a perfect memory system."-Weekly Budget. "I do not say that I made myself a walking Hume or Macaulay, but I do say that what I had learned, I knew perfectly, thanks to your system. The result was full marks (150)."-Reginald E. Murray, Esq. "I have just come off top in a Bursary examination, and I owe my success in great measure to the general improvement which your system had effected in my retentiveness and acumen."- Thomas Tait, Esq. "I have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending the system to all who are in earnest in wishing to train their memories effectively, and are therefore willing to take reasonable pains to obtain so useful a result."-Mr. Richard A. Proctor, the Astron- omer. " Prof. Loisette did not create a memory for me ; no, nothing of the kind. And yet he did for me what amounted to the same thing, for he proved to me that I already had a memory, a thing which I was not aware of till then. I had before been able, like most people, to store up and lose things in the dark cellar of my memory, but he showed me how to light up the cellar. It is the difference-to change the figure-between having money where you can't collect it, and having it in your pocket. The information cost me but little, yet I value it at a prodigious figure."-S. L. Clemens (Mark Twain). "There is this all important difference between other systems and that of Prof. Loisette, that while the former are arbitrary and artificial the latter is entirely based upon Physiological and Psychological principles."-The People's Friend. "Let me tell you of my feat yesterday, as showing what change a study of half your lessons at odd moments, for less than a week, has made in my memory. A little after six in the morning I took up my sermon and in an hour and a half possessed myself of a third of it. After breakfast I mastered the rest of it in a little more than an hour. I delivered it verbatim, recurring to the manuscript for a glance only three times. In the afternoon I committed to memory my evening sermon in an hour and a half and delivered it without hesitation, and without looking at my manuscript at all. To have done this a week ago would have been impossible, with less than twenty-four hours study and even then I should have felt no certainty. The most surprising thing to me in this experience was the nature of my mental process. Memoriter preaching I have never practiced. It has seemed to me the least desirable of all the various modes of public address, because the main effort of the mind is concerned in the task of recollection. But in my case this was not so. I had no solicitude for words. The act did not seem like one of memory, rather my whole thinking power seemed engaged with the substance of the discourse and with the audience. So it had the advantage of the mental attitude of extemporaneous address with the chosen and condensed language of the manuscript."-Rev. S. H. Lee.
Prospectuses sent post-free with opinions in full of eminent people in both continents. Great inducements to correspondence classes. Address
