Occupies a field distinctively its own, being- devoted 

 exclusively to principles and methods of elementary 

 instruction. Its immense circulation in every state 

 and territory in the Union is due to the fact that it 

 contains such a large amount of practical matter 

 suitable for classroom use. For teachers of Primary. 

 Intermediate, and ungraded schools this periodical is 

 invaluable. It comes next to a normal school course 

 of training. 



Method «.— A department in which the most expert 

 teachers of the country present advanced and everv- 

 way-usable methods of teaching every subject de- 

 manded of the school. The work here presented is 

 second to none found in book, periodical, institute, or 

 schoolroom. The articles are profusely illustrated. 



Devices — In this department teachers of ungraded 

 schools especially find much help. It furnishes the 

 teacher with innumerable hints as to what to do to 

 make school work attractive and profitable. 



Thing* to Teach— This department presents a 

 variety of instructive material not included in the 

 regular branches of school work. 



For Reproduction.— Just the thing that every 

 teacher must have. These Exercises are arranged in 

 suchawiyas to save her the wear and tear of pre- 

 paring them for herself. 



Tailts with Teachers —Mr. Winship allows teach- 

 ers to ask him any qaestious they please about school 

 work, and gives terse and sensible advice. 



Friday Afternoons.— Here six columns are devoted 

 regularly to recitations, dialogues, exercises, etc. 



It is the best Paper published for Primary 

 Teachers. 



Subscription Price, $1.00 a year.

IT is very seldom we give a periodical a 

 lengthy review, for it is always con- 

 _^ sidered that it does not take so much 

 space to review a magazine as it does a book 

 — but if we forget ourselves in speaking of 

 the Chicago Monthly " Birds and Nature," 

 it will be that paper's fault. 



Birds and Nature is a 48-page monthly de- 

 voted to nature and illustrated throughout 

 by color photography, publishing in natural 

 color pictures of birds, animals, insects, 

 flowers, plants, etc., at the rate of eight 

 pictures a month. 



We have before us the June number, which 

 contains a great many nice things. Of the 

 birds described and illustrated in colors 

 there are Bullock's Oriole, Sanderlings, the 

 Great Northern Shrike, Brant's Cormorant. 

 In the section devoted to animals we see the 

 bison in colors. The three remaining color 

 plates are devoted respectively to Agates, 

 the Mullen, and the Cocoa fruit. 



These plates are very accurate in their 

 likeness to the natural colors, and it is seldom 

 that one gets, at such a cost, so many fine 

 pictures, and they are not chromos, either — 

 this for the benefit of our friends who in- 

 vest in that stock. 



We wish Birds and Nature the future suc- 

 cess it deserves, and sincerely hope that 

 through it, as well as other nature periodi- 

 cals, it may advance the cause of birds. —
