Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from King Coal: A Novel This time Upton Sinclair has absorbed himself in the study of the miner's life in the lonesome pits of the Rocky Moun tains, and his sensitive and enthusiastic mind has brought to the world an American parallel to germinal, Emile Zola's technical masterpiece. The conditions described in the two books are, however, essentially different. While Zola's working-men are all natives of France, one meets in Sinclair's book a motley variety of European emigrants, speaking a Babel of languages and therefore debarred from forming some sort of association to protect themselves against being exploited by the anony mous limited Company. Notwithstanding this natural bar against united action on the part of the wage-earning slaves, the Company feels far from at ease and jealously guards its interests against any attempt of organising the men.

In a num ber Of instances we have altered the text somewhat, when by doing so we thought we could make the explanation clearer to the students. We have changed the page num bers in all the volumes except Vols. IV and V, so that each paper and part will begin with 1, instead Of numbering the pages continuously throughout the volumes, as in the first edition. In order to make the indexes intelligible we have given each paper and part a number. This number has been placed on the headline Of each page opposite the page number and to distinguish it from the page number it has been preceded by the printer's section mark Gonse quently, a reference such as 19, page 12, would be readily found as follows The back stamps on the first three vol umes show the sections (i. E., Papers) included in' the volumes, that for Vol. II reading 11 - 21 hence, look at the inside edges Of the headlines to Vol. II until 19 is found, and then through 19 until page 12 is found.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Underground Life, or Mines and Miners In the following pages we purpose to describe the struggle of the miner in its reality, without exaggeration of any sort. We shall follow him to the field of his labours, observe him in his subterranean life, and describe his habits in various countries; and as we would not only amuse, but instruct, we shall speak of the countries he inhabits, and of the substances he digs from the earth: in short, we shall endeavour to explain the social position of this pioneer of civilization. We our selves have long sojourned with him both in Europe and in America, and have made ourselves acquainted with the manly qualities which so eminently distinguish him. The first part of the present work is devoted to Coal, a substance indispensable to all civilized nations; the second to Metals, the origin of all progress; the last to the Precious Stones, which play so important a part in the decorative arts.
