"A child's readinir-book admirably adapted to the purpose intended. The 

 younir reader is referred to Nature itself rather than to books, and is taught to 

 observe and investigate, and not to rest satisfied with a collection of dull deflni 

 tions learned by rote and worthless to the possessor. The present work will be 

 found a valuable and interesting addition to the somewhat overcrowded child's 

 Uhrary.''''— Boston Gazette. 



" It deserves to take a permanent place in the literature of youth."— Z^ncfon 

 Times. 



" So interestinc: that, having once opened the book, we do not know how to 

 leave off reading.''— ASa^urcfay Heviexo.

 Progress of Discovery, 



FROM THE TIME OF THE GREEKS TO THE PRESENT DAY. 

 For Schools and Young Persons. By Arabella B. Buckley. 

 With Illustrations. 12mo. Cloth. Price, $2.00. 



" The volume is attractive as a book of anecdotes of men of science and their 

 discoveries. Its remarkable features are the sound judgment with which the 

 true landmarks of scientific history are selected, the conciseness cf tJie infonna- 

 tion conveyed, and the interest with which the whole subject is revertbeless in- 

 vested. Its style is strictly adapted to its avowed purpose of furnishing a text- 

 book for the use of schools and young persons."— Zowrfon Daily Netcf. 



" A most admirable little volume. It is a classified resume of the chief di?cov- 

 eries in physical science. To the young student it is a book to open up new 

 worlds with every chapter."— G^j-a/y/t'C. 



'• The book will be a valuable aid in \\iQ study of the elements of natural 

 science."— Jowrna/ of Education.
