Google
This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other maiginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.
Usage guidelines
Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing tliis resource, we liave taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.
We also ask that you:
+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.
+ Refrain fivm automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attributionTht GoogXt "watermark" you see on each file is essential for in forming people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liabili^ can be quite severe.

Write the numbers from 1 to 9 on the board. Underneath, place a mul-
tiplier ; above, place a number to be added to the product of the multiplier
and a number in the second line.
Placing the pointer at 6, the pupil says 12; 13. At 9, he says 18, 19.
Change the multiplier to 3.
When the teacher points to 5, the pupil says 15, 16. When she points
to 8, the pupil says 24, 25.
Change the adding figure to 2.
Pointing to 6, the reply is 18, 20 ; to 7, it is 21, 23 ; etc.
In multiplying by 3, the adding figure cannot be greater than 2. In
multiplying by 4, the adding figure will be 1, 2, or 3.

LONG DIVISION.
Divide 156 by 13 :
In long division, the quotient is placed over the
dividend. The divisor, 13, is contained in the first
two figures of the dividend 1 time. We write 1 in the
quotient, and multiply the divisor by it. The product,
13, is placed under the first two figures of the dividend.
A line is drawn, 13 is subtracted from 15, and the
remainder Is written. The next figure, 6, of the divi-
dend is brought down. 13 is contained in 26 2 times. The 2 is written
in the quotient. Multiplying, we place the product, 26, under the partial
dividend, 2Q. There being no remainder, the answer is 12.

JHE NATURAL SYSTEfl OF
Vertical Writing
By A. F. NE WLANDS and R. K. RO W, Six J . oks. Per doi., 75 ets.
Some of the special merits of our system arc : —
Practicability. It is the outgrowth of nearly five years' experi-
ence in vertical writing ^,ith thousands of pupils of all school ages.
The authors of other series have not had this experience.
Strength. The books are in marked contrast to most of the
systems recentjy published, which are eftbrts to adapt the sloping
hand to the upright position.
Harmony. This system has been carefully worked out with a
central idea as to form and movement.
Ease. Our round vertical script can be easily written. En-
gravers often produce graceful forms and combinations, but such as
one cannot reproduce easily with the pen. Every form and combina-
tion in our system has been thoroughly tested to avoid such difficulties.
Rapidity. Many of the letter-forms at first considered because
they were artistic and graceful, after having been put to the test were
discarded because they did not permit rapid execution.
Educative. The copies in the primary numbers are large and
are illustrated with tasty outline drawings, stimulating interest in the
writing and correlating reading, number, nature study, and spelling
with the special writing lesson. . So far as practicable the correlation
of studies has been carried throughout the series. The size of the
letter forms is gradually reduced 5n the first four numbers.
Economy. Such facilities have been secured for their manufac-
ture, that books of the very best quality will be furnished at the very
lowest prices.
