in English," and "Higher Lessons in English." 32mo. Cloth, flexible. The text of these plays of Shakespeare has been adapted for use in mixed classes, by the omission of everything that would be considered offensive. The notes have been especially selected to meet the requirements of School and College students, from editions edited by eminent English scholars. We are confident that teachers who examine these editions will pronounce them better adapted to the wants, both of the teacher and student, than any other editions published. Printed from large type, bound in a very attractive cloth binding, and sold at nearly one-half the price of other School Editions of Shakespeare.

ENGLISH CLASSICS,

FOR

Classes in English Literature, Reading, Grammar, etc.

EDITED BY EMINENT ENGLISH AND AMERICAN SCHOLARS.

Each Volume contains a Sketch of the Author's Life, Prefatory and Explanatory Notes, etc., etc.

These Volumes are thoroughly adapted for Schools in which English Literature forms a branch of study, or where a carefully-selected portion of some English Classic is selected for minute examination, or for supplementary reading matter. The notes are unusually full and exhaustive, occupying in many volumes nearly half the book. Etymology is attended to throughout, the derivations of all the more difficult words being given. In short they supply the student with all the information necessary to a perfect understanding and just appreciation of the text, and incidentally communicate much useful philological and general knowledge. They are all well printed, on fine paper, from large type, and are attractively bound with paper covers.
