is a live, bright, original teacher's journal, filled to the brim with practical, usable schoolroom material. Its phenomenal growth from a thin folio of sixteen pages in 1890 to its present forty-eight large quarto pages, and supplement; and from a circulation of a few hundred copies to national influence and recognition, has been due wholly to the fact that teachers everywhere recognized its genuine value, and were willing to subscribe for it, and pay for it (in advance), and to commend it to other teachers.

Picture Charts of Animals.

These Natural History Chart Supplements, 18 x 24 inches, are an invaluable aid, and will be continued regularly. The drawings are made from life and are absolutely accurate. Thousands of teachers are using them in classroom work. The accompanying lessons supply abundant descriptive material.

A year's subscription includes TEN of these charts.

Questions Answered.

All subscribers are invited to avail themselves of our Correspondence Department whenever a question arises or a perplexing matter demands discussion and counsel. Two pages or more given each month to answering questions from our readers. Matters not of general interest answered by mail.

This Department open to all subscribers.

Illustrations for Language Work,

Including one double page picture each issue, are numerous and suggestive, and can be used to advantage in a variety of ways. The large picture is 12 x 18 inches, can be seen across the schoolroom.

Cut Up" Work.

Each number fully illustrated.

Cut Up Drawing Cards, Cut Up Arithmetic Cards, Cut Up Stories, etc., are attractive features, and furnish interesting and instructive Busy Work material, which has been widely used and commended. Our readers are constantly demanding more.

These Cut Ups save time and strength otherwise used in searching for Busy Work material.

Pieces to Speak and Special Day Exercises are a regular feature. Articles on History, Geography, Reading, the Teacher's Self, etc., also occupy large space and are written by up-to-date educators. We have not space to go into detail with regard to all subjects treated. But THE TEACHER'S WORLD is its own best agent, and we would be pleased to send you a free sample. After reading one number we believe you will want it regularly.

In the first part of this work the author, with the aid of copious quotations from our greatest masters of literature, develops very thoroughly the subject of imagination.
