'Of the diagrams we cannot speak too highly; they are, in fact, not properly diagrams, but wall pictures in which the form, position and proportion of the several organs and structures are represented with unusual accuracy."— The Schoolmaster.

"This series of three diagrams has a very distinct advantage over many others. No difficulty is experienced in making them comprehensive to the student. For truthful drawings, and as reliable scientific aids they are not excelled by any series extant. With the diagrams is published a key entitled 'The structure and care of the human body,' and this little work is deserving of the highest praise."-The Board Teacher.

"They have evidently been drawn with strict regard to anatomical details, and are coloured so as to show distinctly the various organs and their parts. An accompanying key to the diagrams, in which the whole of them are given on a reduced scale, has been revised by DR. WILLIAM R. SMITH, Medical Officer to the School Board for London. They are excellent for their purpose, and moreover are comparatively cheap, the four plates (numbers 1 and 2 being mounted together) on rollers, and varnished, being only twenty-one shillings."—The Bookseller.

A. JOHNSTON'S

STANDARD DIAGRAMS OF PHYSIOGRAPHY.

Nos. 1 & 2 (Being Nos. 2 & 3 of A. Johnston's Standard Series of School Diagrams.)
Price, mounted on Cloth and Rollers, Varnished, each 21s.
Size, 58 by 50 inches.

Accompanied by Explanatory Keys to each Diagram, gratis.

Diagram No. 1 introduces the subject in depicting, by beautifully-coloured illustrations, a visit to a Coal Mine, the source of our great national wealth. The illustrations show how the miners reach the coal, how they work it, and how it is brought to the surface. The implements, lamps, trolleys, &c., used, are all shown, as well as the methods used for ventilating the pit, mapping out the progress made, the supporting of the earth above, &c. A map of the British Coal Fields is given, and several illustrations showing the position of the coalbearing strata, how it was formed, how it is reached, and the difficulties met with in reaching it. There are altogether on this diagram, 49 illustrations bearing on this most important subject, and 7 illustrations of Volcanoes, Earthquakes, Geysers, &c.

Diagram No. 2 is chiefly connected with Physical Geography, illustrating by 78 coloured diagrams the position and action of Water in its many forms of clouds, rain, snow, ice, glaciers, rivers, springs, wells, &c.; also the Mirage, Aurora, Sandstorms, and Waterspouts, Climate by elevation, and Geology in many of its bearings, viz. :—Theoretical Section of the Earth's Crust, Sections of Continents, General View of the British Strata, Old Sea Beaches, Fossils from various strata, Granite, Basaltic Columns, Stalactites, Chalk, Coal, Earth Pillars, Pitch Lake, Salt Mines, &c., &c.

"These are a pair of magnificent wall charts, mounted and varnished for hanging, offering every possible aid to the class lecturer, and every possible attraction to the fancy, the interest, and the intelligence of children. panying the charts are pamphlets forming a complete scientific and instructive key to the diagrams. They are all the teacher or lecturer needs for his task."— School Board Chronicle.

"Excellent examples of the uses to which pictorial illustrations may be put in schoolwork are afforded by A. Johnston's standard diagrams of Physiography. Two sheets of diagrams, mounted on cloth and rollers, and accompanied by explanatory keys, present the facts of Physiography in a form likely to be most useful for the teacher, and attractive to the learner."-The Scotsman.

[ocr errors]

These two large sheets form an admirable beginning to the standard series of illustrations in the direction of Physiography. Both sheets, we venture to predict will soon be seen on the walls of most schools in which the science subject of Physiography is regularly taught, and will suitably ornament others for the purposes of reference during many an “ Object lesson." The bold outlines and the effective colouring of these illustrations will, of themselves, excite attention and curiosity, and a course of lessons on this series of diagrams might be a most instructive and popular one in elementary science. The publisher has provided a welcome boom to many a teacher."-The Schoolmaster.
