 be found a valuable aid in writing a composition on any topic. It lays 

 down plain directions for the division of a suoject into its appropriate heads, 

 and for arranging them in their natural order, commencing with the simplest 

 theme and advancing progressively to the treatment of more complicated 

 subjects. The use of this excellent hand-book will save the student tho 

 many hours of labor too often wasted in trying to write a plain composition. 

 It affords a perfect skeleton of each subject, with its headings or divisions 

 clearly defined, and each heading filled in with the ideas which the subject 

 suggests ; so that all the writer has to do, in order to produce a good com- 

 position, is to enlarge on them to suit his taste and inclination.
