Healthy and harmonious growth. Promotes natural growth of the muscles, awakens percep. tion, cultivates taste in design, and makes children more thoughtful, sympathet ic, and happy.

Very gratifying; many of the children, admitted to the home are considerably enfeebled in body and mind, and nothing else could so help to awaken the mental faculties and give strength and skill to the useless fingers. With the brighter children the results are very satisfactory.

Develops harmoniously the physical, mental, and moral powers of the child.

Develops the physical and mental natures without forcing either, and the child learns to combine the alphabet of knowing with that of doing.

Promotes healthy physical and mental growth, and prepares the child for the more rigid discipline of the public school.

All that is claimed for it by any intelligent advocate. Improves the child physically and mentally, teaches him to be unselfish, trains the eye and hand, strengthens the memory, and develops ideas of number.

Strengthens the muscles, cultivates the observing powers, and develops the mental faculties generally.

Produces the happiest results; the natural and pleasing incentives to effort arouse and interest the dormant minds, make sensitive and skilful the feeble hands, and put body and mind into a healthier condition than former methods have done.
