The Abbreviating Principle.—By studying and practicing the hst of words written under the abbreviating principle given on pages 64, 65, and 66 of the Manual, the student will have at his command a good working vocabulary of most of the most common words that may be written by this principle. The mastery of this will also so firmly fix the principle in mind that the student will apply it to other words almost automatically. The best method of mastering these is to study each word carefully and practice the individual outhne until it can be written rapidly. Practice reading the fornft given on pages 65 and 66 until speed in reading is acquired. Then the entire list should be dictated and read back until it can be written rapidly.
"Dollar" Standing Alone.—When standing alone, "dollar" is expressed by "d-o." With k" beneath, it expresses "dollar and a quarter"; with f," "dollar and a half"; with the "cents" sign (above the Une), "dollars and cents."
