As the author has not designed the manf cuts he has placed in his book as mere embellishments for pUasing children, he ventures to premise the following directions for thehr use. Direct the child's attention to the cut, and explain its parts and its use. Exhibit, in , the next place, the word representing the namt of the object, and require the child to repeat the letters which compose that name, first bj looking at them in the book, and after|ir«rds, either from memory, or by selecting and putting together the proper letters from an alphabet prepared for the purpose, by pasting each letter on a separate piece of wood or paste-boarcl. . ^- . . In the review of eac^ section, let th» learner recur to the cuts. K 1 In the reading lessons, after the learner has read all the Mirords of a sentence, (in the same manner in- which a spelling lesson is usually read,) the teacher should read the •entenee, and require the learner to repeat afler him, not only the words, but the varioui inflectionf that mark the sense.
