 Classical and Educational Works. ®inor %xi% and Sntiustrieg* A SERIES OF ILLUSTRATED AND PRACTICAL MANUALS FOR SCHOOL USE AND SELF-INSTRUCTION. Edited by CHARLES G. LELAND. This series of manuals on " The Minor Arts and Industries " is designed on the lines laid down in Mr. Leland's treatise on educa- tion. Each handbook will present the subject with which it deals in a thoroughly popular and practical manner ; the lessons carry the student on his road step by step from the veriest elements to the point where the most advanced works fitly find their place in his course of study ; in short, the greatest pains are taken to ensure a thorough mastery of the rudiments of each subject, and to so clearly state each lesson, illustrating it where necessary by plans and draw- ings, that even very young children may be interested in and trained to practical work. On similar grounds the self-taught student will find these manuals an invaluable aid to his studies. Pari I now ready. Paper cover, is. or in cloth, s. 6d.
