BE MASTER OF THE SITUATION!
Are you a School Teacher?

Or merely a School Keeper?

If you are either, and mean to teach
PENMANSHIP acceptably, you should have

Ellsworth's Illustrated Lessons and Lectures

on that subject to prompt and show you what, when and how to pre-
sent each lesson properly and successfully. It is the first and only
complete and up-to-date work and belongs in every working teacher's
library. The State will pay for it if you cannot, for it is on the list,
and a sine qua non of every school room. Please advise us of your
position and wish to have it, and we will help you. Don't delay a
minute. Your increase of salary depends upon what this work will

KEEP COOL.

Don't adopt every book that comes along. Don't condemn a book after brief examination. But when your neighbors have thoroughly tested a book and pronounce it superior-don't you owe it to your pupils to try it? We have in mind Tarr's First Book of Physical Geography and Lewis' First Book in Writing English.

DON'T THINK these are our only successful high school

books. Channing's Students' U. S. History is the book the best high schools have been waiting for. Stopford Brooke's is "the best history of English literature ever written," and the best algebra for drill is Hall & Knight's. Tarr's Geology is all right.

REST assured we shall keep right on publishing books of the highest merit. Mrs. Wilson's Nature Study and Carruth's Wilhelm Teli, each a pronounced success, show what we intend to do along these lines. You will like our new series of English Classics.
