NEW DRAWING BOOKS

The subject of Drawing, or more properly Art Instruction, in public schools has assumed such importance during the last few years that Individual Systems or Series of books receive little attention from those who have kept in touch with the Art Educational movement. A System or Course which embodies the best experience of those who have been prominent in the movement is a safer guide than one which reflects the notion of a single person with limited opportunities for observation. Such a Course as the former is offered by

THE PRANG ELEMENTARY COURSE IN ART INSTRUCTION (Books for Third, Fourth and Fifth Year now ready)

THE PRANG COURSE IN DRAWING FOR GRADED SCHOOLS

(Six Drawing Books and One Manual)

A complete and thorough revision of the well-known Unabridged, the purpose of which has been not display nor the provision of material for boastful and showy advertisement, but the due, judicious, scholarly, thorough perfecting of a work which in all the stages of its growth has obtained in an equal degree the favor and confidence of scholars and of the general public.

The International has been warmly commended by members of the United States Supreme Court, by all the State Supreme Courts, by all State Superintendents of Schools, and by eminent authors and educators almost without number. It is recognized as the standard authority by the U. S. Government Printing Office and is the standard to which nearly all schoolbooks adhere.

BEST FOR TEACHERS AND SCHOOLS, BECAUSE words are given their correct alphabetical places in the vocabulary, each one beginning a paragraph so as to be readily caught by the eye.

BECAUSE the pronunciation is indicated by the ordinary diacritically marked letters used in the schoolbooks of the country, the sounds of which are taught in the public schools. BECAUSE the etymologies are complete and scientific, and the different meanings a word has acquired are given in the order of their growth from the root idea.

BECAUSE the definitions are clear, explicit, and full; terse, yet comprehensive. They are not composed of technical scientific terms which must themselves be defined before they can be understood.

"More Kernel and Less Husk."

The Pacific Educational Journal, San Francisco, says :-There is more kernel and less shell and husk in Webster than in any other dictionary published. It is the compass used alike by the orator, the statesman, the student, the minister, the writer, and the mass of mankind. It completely fills the bill-meets every requirement.-October, 1895.
