 ^f HIS brief work is designed to aid persons in review work and school work. The 
 ^tables and topics have been compiled with great care, and can be used profitably 
 in class by placing the headings and names thereof on the blackboard, and lot the 
 students fill out the rest of the table for the following lesson. In this way (he 
 student will soon acquire a taste for investigation, which is one of the essential 
 things to be cultivated in the school-room. The pamphlet ciin al.so be used ibr a 
 handy r&ference manual in U. S- History, etc. 
 
 I desire to express many thanks to my uncle, E. E. White, A. M., LL. D., of 
 Cincinnati, Ohio, for his welcome advice and many thoughts incorporated in this 
 work. Thanks are also due Prof. E. E. Smith, of Purdue University, President 
 State Teachers' Association, for assistance in tabularizing ; to Supt. W. P. Denny, 
 of Noble county, and especially to Miss Hattie Lemmon, assistant in the Albion 
 High School, for valuable assistance in this work.

 To PRESENT and develop any subjedl in Arithmetic to a class: i. Have a clear idea of the subjecfl to be 
 taught; 2, Have a clear idea of the natural divisions of the subjeift; 3, /<'rtt7i the process, not merely the 
 text-book; 4, Test the pupil's ability to understand the process; 5, Train the pupils to rapidity and corre<5l- 
 ness of work. 
 
 ♦Primary IJVorU;. 
 
 First Vear — Teach obje<5lively the first ten digits in Notation (Arabic and Roman), Addition, Subtrac- 
 tion and Division of groups of obje(5ls. 
 
 Second Year — Teach obje<5liveIy and by charaClers: on slate or board the next ten digits to twenty, in Ad- 
 dition, Subtra<5lion and Analysis. 
 
 Third Year — Teach by oral and blackboard exercises all processes in Addition Subtraction, Multipli- 
 cation and Division, with numbers under 100. Use Analysis and practical problems. 
 
 SHORT PROCESSE^S.— mensuration. 
 
 To Find Contents of a Cistern in Gallons (AVrtr/y)— Find solid feet therein and multiply by 7^. 
 
 To Find Contents 0/ a Bin or Crib in Bushels — Find solid feet and deduct one- fifth. 
 
 To Find Number 0/ Feet in Boards, Plunks, Etc. — Multiply the product of the width and thickness of 
 each stick of timber in inches by the length in feet and divide by 12. 
 
 Afiproxiviate Weight 0/ Hay by Measurement— Y\\\di cvM\c?\ contents in feet and divide by 450, and 
 the quotient will be the number of tons, approximately. 
 
 Interest. 
 
 The Per Cent, of Profit or Loss — Add two ciphers to the difference between the cost and the selling 
 price and divide this by the cost. The quotient will be the per cent, of g.iin or loss. 
 
 Method of Finding Interest by Cancellation — Use the principal as a fraction with i as a denominator; fol- 
 lowing it place the number of days as a numerator, divided by j6o; following this the interest in fractional 
 form. '1 hen cancel and reduce the fr.iction to a whole number. 
 
 Problem — What is the interest on ;j55oo for 30 days (g> 10 per cent? 
 
 *^° X 3° X ^° when cancelled = ^° ^ U.^(>%

 add to face of note. Take this amount for new princijal and find interest on it for time yet to run plus three 
 days of grace. This will be the bank disci^iint.

TECHNICAL GRAMMAR. 
 
 iiil||0|Mm 
 
 The science of Grammar deals with words as they are constructed into sentences. As to Grammar, the 
 following scheme summarizes the work; 
 
 f ( The Verb 
 
 Sentences of. 
 
 ( 
 
 Words < and 
 
 (a Noun, as. 
 
 The Subject, 
 
 An Object, 
 
 An Attribute, 
 I An Adjective , 
 I An Indirect Object. 
 
 {The Pronoun differs from the Noun only by the possession of Case \_ 
 and form of construction. J 
 
 Verb 
 Words and Phrases <J and 
 
 A Phrase, as. 
 
 f The Subject, 
 
 I An Object, 
 
 -j An Attribute, 
 
 I An Adjective, 
 
 ( An Indirect Object. 
 
 The Verb 
 Words, Phrases and Clauses <j and 
 
 A Sentence, as_ 
 
 f The Subject, 
 
 An Object, 
 -( An Attribute, 
 I An Adjective, 
 (^ An Indirect Object. 
 
 A critical knowledge of Syntax and Composition is best obtained by : 
 
 ist, the study of sentences illustrating good usage; 2d, the correction of sentences badly constructed; 3d, 
 daily exercises in Composition on short subjects; 4, the use of choice English words and constructions; 5, 
 the right number of words for a given thought; 6, logical arrangements of the parts of a sentence; 7th, letter- 
 writing especially, with careful attention to capitalization, punctuation, etc. 
 
 L,an8:uasre I^essons. 
 
 The main point is to teach the child by seeing the object. Take tlie following plan for example: 
 
 1. The name of the object. Learn to speak it correctly. 
 
 2. How many have seen any other like this? Where ? etc. 
 
 3. For what do people have them ? What do they do with them, or, of what use are they ? 
 
 4. Color? Large or small? Like or unlike any oihers which you have seen ? Why others did not look 
 like this ? 
 
 5. A short, simple home-talk to cultivate comparison and conception: as, if the lesson has been about the 
 horse, to look at the hor.se father drives, or brother rides, and tell to-morrow tor what father or brother uses 
 the horse, etc,

 ROYSE'SK 
 
 'muiil of Emericm Literuture. 
 
 [A NKW AND REVISED EDITION.) 
 
 By N. K. ROYSE, 
 Princ'pal of Public Schools, Cincinnati, Ohio, 
 
 AND AUTIIOll OF 
 
 Royscs Manual of Enolish Literature. 
 
 iiiii^iiii- 
 
 We take pleasure in calling theattenti^n of educators, students and lovers of literature generally, to our 
 jj^-^^. ^((il^ion ut Royse's Manual OF Amekican Li'iENAiuKE, embodying revisions that render it 
 full and authentic up to the present date. The plan of this work may be briefly stated as follows: — 
 
 PiRST. It presents a succindt historical retr speft or resume of the origin and pp gress of American litera- 
 ture, noticino- the influences, natural, political, social, and temperamental, that have from time to time 
 operated in the development of its various phases. 
 
 Second. It exhibits in separate chapters such biographical and historical matters as intimately concern 
 
 the literary lives and labors of the acknowledged representative writers of our country, together with 
 standard critical*pinions concerning these authors, verifying such opinions by means of numerous inter- 
 esting and charaaeristic extraas from their works. 
 
 From numerous recommendations, we have only space for the following:— 
 
 PfOf, 'William Mathews, University of Chicago, Chicago, III., ivritcs: "Will you please 
 accept my thanks for a copy of the 'Manual of American Literature,' by N. K. Royse, which ( have ex- 
 amined with some care? With the execution of the work, as a whole, I am much pleased. In the fi st pl.ice 
 the aulhor has adopted the true method of instruaing the pupil in our literature— viz. , by placing before him 
 typical specimens of the literature itself, making the critical notices secondary, thus avoiding the error of 
 many' text-books, which he can neither comprehend nor enjoy. Why should American literature be taught 
 in'a way wholly different from that in which the literatures of Greece and Rome, of France and Germany 
 are taught? Another merit of the book is it; brevity . The selections in Mr. Royse's book are m.Tde, \ 
 think with judgment and taste, and the criticisms are generally acute, terse and discriminating. yet temp- 
 ered with that genial, loving spirit so necessary to kindle the enthusiasm of the pupil. No young man of 
 sensibility can go through the work without having his curiosity piqued, and a desire aw.aTcened to know some 
 thing more of a literature of which he has here so many interesting specimens Believing ihat the study of 
 our literature has been too generally neglected in ou high schools, I am glad that you have published this 
 neat volume, and hope it will become a popular text-book."
