A Revised and Enlarged Edition of WARREN 

 COLBURN S First Lessons (Intellectual 

 Arithmetic upon the Inductive Method of Instruc 

 tion), was published in 1884. 



WHEELER S Second Lessons, although 

 complete in itself, has been prepared to follow 

 Colburn s First Lessons. Its brevity, the em 



phasis that it places on fundamental principles 

 and their applications, and the omission of useless subjects, will 

 make it acceptable, it is hoped, to those teachers and business 

 men throughout the United States who demand that the essen 

 tials of Arithmetic shall be better taught than now, and in less 

 time, and that the non-essentials shall be omitted. 



These two books form a complete course in Arithmetic, which is charac 

 terized throughout by a careful application of the Inductive Method of In 

 struction, by the aid of which the pupil is led to regard a new? word as a 

 labor-saving device for the expression of an idea, a definition as a brief state 

 ment of the net result of personal observation and thought, and a rule as a 

 brief statement of how ke has done something. 



Descriptive Circulars of Colburn s First Lessons and Wheeler s 

 Second Lessons, including sample pages, will be sent to any ad 

 dress on application. 



*A New and Revised Edition of ANDREWS 

 AND STODDARD S LATIN GRAMMAR. By 

 HENRY PREBLE, $1.12. 



We take pleasure in announcing that we have just published a 

 new and carefully revised edition of this widely famous book. 

 While the new edition retains so far as possible the valuable 

 features of the old edition, it embodies the results of modern 

 scholarship, and is designed to be the best possible combination of 

 practicability and scientific accuracy. The favor with which the 

 new edition has already been received by teachers in Preparatory 

 Schools and by Professors in Colleges warrants us in assuring all 

 teachers of Latin that they will find it well worthy of their care 

 ful examination.
