    * The “

     Illustrated Webster Spelling Book

    ” has been most carefully compiled by an Eminent English Scholar, who is daily engaged in the tuition of youth, and, therefore, knows exactly what is really useful in a Spelling Book. The Reading Lessons are arranged upon a new progressive principle, exceedingly simple, and well adapted for the purpose. The Accented Type has been adopted, so as to ensure correct pronunciation. The old system of mis-spelling words is dangerous in the extreme, and, therefore, very justly, has now fallen into disuse. In a word, the “

     Illustrated Webster Spelling Book

    ,” whether considered in respect to its Typography, Binding, or Beauty of its Illustrations, must take the highest position as a School-Book, entirely setting aside the old-fashioned, and, in most instances, unintelligible—so called—helps to learning.

     IN PREPARATION,

     THE ILLUSTRATED

      WEBSTER READER,

     SERIES I.,
