Based on twenty-two years' experience with thousands of children and
hundreds of teachers. "A method reasonable, feasible and without great
cost, adapted to all grades, from child to adult; a plan that can be
applied without friction to every kind of educational institution or to
the family, and limited only by the capacity of the individual; a method
covered by natural law, working with the absolute precision of nature
itself; a process that unfolds the capacities of children as unfold the
leaves and flowers; a system that teaches the pupils that they are in the
plan and part of life, and enables them to work out their own salvation on
the true lines of design and work as illustrated in every natural thing."

A Wealth of Illustration--478 Pictures and 44 Full-Page Plates

Fresh, new, practical, scientific, inspiring
