Read each sentence through

carefully several times until

you think you know its meaning but do not translate it into
English, for you must learn to read and understand Latin in the
natural order of its words and thoughts without an artificial rearrangement into the English order.

you look up a single word. Remember that common sense is

When

you have thoroughly mastered the meaning of a

colloquium by a direct appeal to the Latin, translate

English,

qui vir est, what kind of a man is it?

Compendious French Grammar.

In two independent parts, Introductory and Advanced, by A. Iljalmar Edgren,
Professor of Modern Languages and Sanscrit in the University of Nebraska,
author of English and Sanscrit grammars, etc. Cloth. Price of Part I, 35 cents.
Mailing price of complete book, #1.25. Introduction price, 1.12.

THIS

Grammar was prepared

with general reference to the needs

American schools and colleges.

Its limit is determined
by the average time devoted to French in such institutions, and its
method, by practical as well as critical aims.
The First Part is devoted to such a brief, practical introduction
to the French language as will make the learner familiar with its first
essentials and enable him to begin reading with profit in half a term,
of our

or even less time.

It

contains only 66 pages, exercises included.

The Second Part contains a methodical presentation of French

etymology, syntax (with exercises at the end of the book), and versification, as well as a brief sketch of the relation of French to the

Romance element

in English.

in columns, have been introduced to illustrate the rules of Syntax.
To aid the Latin student especially and quicken philological investigation, each chapter is preceded, parenthetically and unobtrusively, by
a brief historical survey of the subject under consideration.
Two
sizes of type have been consistently used to denote what should be
studied in a first course, and what be left for a second, or be used for
reference only.
The Second Part, contains about 300 pages.
The
portion in heavy type is calculated to furnish work accessory to
reading for about a term and a half.

THIS

is

a fascinating story, by one of the most charming of French

and well suited to the class-room.

It has an historical
background, the scene being laid in Paris just at the beginning of the
French Revolution, and the notes are intended not only to explain
any difficulties that may occur in the text, but also to throw light on
writers,

the historical allusions.

The language is so simple that it can be
read by pupils who*have had only a little experience in reading
French.
It is well adapted for a first text after leaving the Reader,

or would be suitable for sight reading in any college class.

and the Harzreise is no exception
Heine's works generally
contain some words, sentences, or passages which are not suited to
the young; but it is possible in many cases to take away objectionable
words without mutilating the thought. Sentences and passages have
been omitted whenever it has been deemed best. The editor has not
allowed himself any other liberties with the text, and believes that the
advantage which is offered students of becoming acquainted with
Heine's mingling of satire and poetry is a sufficient justification for
the publication of this somewhat incomplete text. The notes refer
only to such words or expressions as cannot readily be found in the

poetry, a language ought to be studied mainly in

dictionaries in general use.

First:

easy texts

The fact is recognised that, with the many complete and

now accessible, the scope of a Reader has become purely

elementary, and only introductory to independent reading.

This view

has determined the extent of the book, less than 300 pages, and the
character of the selections. Difficult pieces are excluded altogether,

and

literary criticism, history etc., are left for later study.

Second: The effort is made to familiarize the student with easy

German, in all the forms in which he may be called upon to read the
language in German and Roman type, and in Schrift; and in the
new and the old orthography, enough of each being given for practice, while German type, in the new orthography will predominate.
