F THE .:20 1900 a. 40810 PARKER & WATSONS NEW READERS. с NOTICE.-In order to correct misapprehension as to the Revised Editions of Parker & Watson's National Third, Fourth and Fifth Readers, we take this method of announcing that they are NOT ENTIRELY NEW BOOKS, but simply the Old Editions with some unimportant changes in matter and illustration. The two Editions can easily be used in the same Classes by means of the indices pro vided. The Old Editions may still be had upon application to the Publishers, but it is believed that teachers will find it to their interest to introduce the New at once. A. S. BARNES & Co., Publishers.
