THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTIt is with genuine pleasure that the writer is enabled to direct the attention of all clerks, book-keepers and merchants to a work which will infallibly present clearly to them a new and excellent system of double-entry bookkeeping. It presents thoroughly practical instructions, prepared with especial reference to improving the systems of book-keeping now in use in many offices. It is arranged throughout with regard to simplicity of comprehension, so that the younger as well as the older members of the community, the inexperienced as well as the experienced, may understand its teachings. It is so entirely different from anything ever before published on the subject of book-keeping, so thoroughly original, practical and simplified that it has at once come into popular favor, and is universally acknowledged to be by far the most exhaustive treatise on common-sense book-keeping published in the nineteenth century. Mr. Goodwin is in every respect a talented, wide-awake business man, successful in both Chicago and New York commercial circles, and who, as the result of nine years' practical experience in the offices of leading concerns of different kinds, has published this invaluable treatise, written entirely from personal observation and experience. It is the culmination of his nine years' successful career as a bookkeeper and financial manager. Mr. Goodwin's treatise is invaluable because it illustrates book-keeping just as it is practised in the counting-room of the business man of to-day. It casts aside as worthless the trash inculcated in business colleges under the name of book-keeping and buries theory and old fogyism forever out of sight. It is on the contrary a practical book, from which any person can, by close application to study, within ten days' time, obtain a thorough knowledge of double-entry book-keeping, entirely without the assistance of a teacher. To business men not thoroughly "up" in book-keeping this work is invaluable, as it affords points for everybody, clearing up every knotty point that may arise. The book likewise contains an improved method of averaging accounts; all about stock companies, manufacturing, shipping, and commission businesses, shortened methods of calculation and labor-saving devices. The price of this unrivalled book is but two dollars. Mr. Goodwin prints testimonials from merchants and book-keepers all over the country ?strongly endorsing it, and speaking of it in the highest possible terms; in fact, we have never seen such a flattering series of communications ever before gathered together, and they speak volumes as to its practical value to all business men and their employees. Mr. Goodwin has now had it before the public for about four years, in which time it has attained an enormous circulation all over the United States and Canada, and at his very central Broadway offices he employs a numerous staff of assistants so as to promptly fill all orders.
