COMPLETE COURSE IN LATIN FOR THE FIRST YEAR.

Harkness's Complete Latin Course for the First Year contains a series of simple exercises progressively arranged, and designed to lead the way directly to connected discourse, together with numerous exercises and passages intended for practice in sight-reading and composition exercise, accompanied by frequent suggestions to the learner; also a Grammatical Outline, with paradigms of declension and conjugation, and all needed rules of syntax and statements of grammatical principles, given in the exact form and language in which they occur in "Harkness's Standard Latin Grammar." It is designed to serve as a complete introductory book in Latin, no other grammar being required.

The same work will be furnished, when desired, without the Grammatical Outline, under the title:

Progressive Exercises in Reading and Writing Latin, with Frequent Practice in Reading at Sight, intended as a companionbook to Harkness's Standard Latin Grammar.

Both editions contain numerous notes and suggestions, and an adequate Latin-English and English-Latin Dictionary.

Harkness's Complete Latin Course for the First Year is a thoroughly practical book, and brings out more clearly than any other introductory Latin book now published, the latest and most approved theories and methods of Latin instruction. It will stand pre-eminent in the peculiarly practical nature of the drill which it will afford upon etymological distinctions and the perplexing idiomatic forms of Latin discourse, as well as the facility with which it will enable the pupil to take up and master the difficulties of Latin syntax. It makes the transition from the simple sentence to connected discourse so easy that it is scarcely perceptible.

The work is in every way worthy to take its place in the unrivaled Latin series of which it will be the introductory book.

Teachers are invited to examine Harkness's Complete Latin Course for the First Year before starting another class in Latin. We feel confident that a careful examination will result in its adoption.

All classical and high schools where Latin is taught, and especially those schools which aim to do thorough college preparatory work, should use Harkness's Complete Latin Course for the First Year, Harkness's Standard Latin Grammar, and Standard Latin Texts.

Favorable terms of exchange will be furnished to those schools using any other Latin Grammar than Harkness's Standard Edition, and correspondence in reference to the same is respectfully solicited.

ECCE OVA GALLINAM DOCENTA. Fabula Russica. [E. M. Epstein.]

Erat olim gallina senior atque rebus familiaribus perita, quae prima aestate, super nido facto atque ovis pleno, nunc sapiens mater et expectans sedebat. Judicio perito atque solicitudine omnibus suis curabat ut quidquid suum calorem, natura desideratum, idoneo reciperet tempore. Multos ita dies agebatur, et vita crescebat augebaturque, sed forsitan paulo plus quam pro salute aliquorum. Dum mater ova reponebat iterum iterumque querella criminationesque ortae ab extremis sunt. "Ne me," dicit unum, "de luce privandum est!"-"Et ne me," dicit aliud, “de aere puro!"—"Vah!" superbitim ac contemptim clamat tertium, 'peribimus vero omnes sub hoc regimine obscurato tenebris!
