(FEN UNG’S Outlines is in no sense a condensation or adaptation 
of the author’s “ Practical Elements of Rhetoric,” but an 
entirely new book prepared for a different field. The book is 
designed for use in high schools, academies, and seminaries, and 
for elementary courses in colleges. | 
Great care has been taken in this work to state the principles 
in such plain and simple language that the pupil will not fail to 
understand; and such is its clearness that even beginners will 
find many of the deeper principles of expression, as well as the 
suupler, both lucid and interesting. 
E. Ferrier, Professor of Rhetoric, 
Lafayette College, Pa.: I have se-

a book for a life-time. It deals with 
. the subject in an original manner 
and invests it with a fresh interest 
for the student.
