Harkness's New Latin Grammars
=A COMPLETE LATIN GRAMMAR=
Cloth-leather binding. 12mo, 464 pages =$1.25=
=A SHORT LATIN GRAMMAR=
Cloth-leather binding. 12mo, 254 pages =.80=
By ALBERT HARKNESS, Ph.D., LL.D., Professor Emeritus in Brown University.
These new text-books are the crowning triumph of a life-work which has made the name of their author familiar to classical scholars and teachers everywhere. They represent the latest advances in philological science, and embody the results of the author's large experience in teaching and of his own linguistic studies, together with the suggestions and advice of eminent German specialists in the field of Historical and Comparative Grammar. The peculiar qualities of simplicity, clearness, and adaptation of treatment to the practical needs of the student and of the class room,--qualities that have always characterized the Harkness Grammars,--have been preserved and even intensified in these new books.
The Complete Latin Grammar is designed at once as a text-book for the class room and a book of reference for the student. It aims not only to present systematically for the benefit of the beginner the leading facts and laws of the Latin language, but also to provide accurately for the needs of the advanced student.
The Short Latin Grammar is published for the benefit of those who prefer to begin with a more elementary manual, or those who do not contemplate a collegiate course. In the preparation of this work the convenience and interest of the student have been carefully consulted. The paradigms, rules, and discussions have in general been introduced in the exact form and language of the Complete Latin Grammar by which it may at any time be supplemented. The numbering of the sections in the two books is also alike.

LATIN PROSE WRITING
=With Full Introductory Notes On Idiom=
By MAURICE W. MATHER, Ph.D. Formerly Instructor in Latin in Harvard University
and ARTHUR L. WHEELER, Ph.D. Instructor in Latin in Yale University
=Half Leather, 12mo, 216 pages Price $1.00=
The present book furnishes all the essential material for the writing of average passages in Latin Prose. It is not intended to teach how to write isolated sentences, illustrative of given constructions, but the book assumes that the pupil, after a year or more of such practice, is ready to learn the art of writing connected narrative in Latin. The authors have based their exercises on Caesar's Gallic War Books III and IV, Nepos's Alcibiades and Hannibal, and Cicero's Manilian Law and Archias, inasmuch as these are not only models of good style, but are usually read in schools. As the book is not for beginners, the individual exercises have not been made vehicles for teaching any one or two constructions, but the authors have felt at liberty to introduce at any time even the more difficult constructions; indirect discourse, for instance, being taken up at the very beginning.
While, in general, the vocabulary and the constructions for any exercise are supplied in the Latin text on which the given exercise is based, yet enough variation from the language of the model is required to give the pupil abundant practice in handling forms and constructions. By this means the pupil's power of observation is increased, his interest is quickened by the pleasure of discovery, and he will remember the word much better than if he found it ready at hand in a dictionary.
A number of recent examination papers from various colleges have been inserted in the belief that they will be found useful for sight tests and occasional examinations. The notes accompanying some of the papers belong to the original examinations. At the end of the book are indexes of words and constructions, and of English words and phrases with references to sections of the Notes on Idiom in Part I.

PEARSON'S ESSENTIALS OF LATIN FOR BEGINNERS
BY HENRY C. PEARSON Horace Mann School, Teachers' College, Columbia University
Cloth, 12mo, 320 Pages Price, 90 Cents
This book is designed to prepare pupils in a thorough fashion to read Caesar's Gallic War. It contains seventy lessons, including ten that are devoted exclusively to reading, and six supplementary lessons. The first seventy lessons contain the minimum of what a pupil should know before he is ready to read Latin with any degree of intelligence and satisfaction. The supplementary lessons deal largely with certain principles of syntax that some teachers may not wish to present to their pupils during the first year's work. They are independent of one another and of the rest of the book, and may therefore be taken up in any order that the teacher wishes, or any number of them may be omitted.
The work contains many features and pedagogical improvements which will commend themselves to teachers of first year Latin. Various simplifications in statement are introduced, and throughout the greatest care has been taken to preserve scientific accuracy while enunciating principles in the simplest forms.

_Revised Edition_
VIRGIL'S AENEID
With an Introduction, Notes, and Vocabulary by #HENRY S. FRIEZE#, late Professor of Latin in the University of Michigan. Revised by #WALTER DENNISON#, Professor of Latin in the University of Michigan.
First Six Books $1.30 Complete $1.50 Complete Text Edition $0.50
#This Work# differs in many respects from the former edition. Such changes and alterations have been introduced as are necessary to make the book conform to modern demands, and many important additions have also been made.
#The Introduction# has been enlarged by the addition of sections on the life and writings of Virgil, the plan of the Aeneid, the meter, manuscripts, editions, and helpful books of reference.
#The Text# has been corrected to conform to the readings that have become established, and the spellings are in accord with the evidence of inscriptions of the first century A.D. To meet the need of early assistance in reading the verse metrically, the long vowels in the first two books are fully indicated.
#The Notes# have been thoroughly revised and largely added to. The old grammar references are corrected and new ones (to Harkness's Complete, Lane & Morgan's, and Bennett's Grammars) added. The literary appreciation of the poet is increased by parallel quotations from English literature. The irregularities of scansion in each book are also given with sufficient explanations.
#The Vocabulary# has been made as simple as possible and includes only those words occurring in the Aeneid. The parts of compound words are not indicated separately when they appear unmodified in the compound form. The principal parts of verbs are given which are understood to be in actual use.
#The Illustrations# for the most part are new and fresh, and have been selected with great care with a view to assisting directly in the interpretation of the text. There are also maps showing the wanderings of Aeneas, the vicinity of Cumae, and pre-historic Rome, and a full-page facsimile of one of the best manuscripts of Virgil, the Codex Palatinus.

#CICERO'S ORATIONS#
AND SELECTIONS FROM THE LETTERS
Edited By
WILLIAM R. HARPER, Ph.D., D.D., LL.D. President of the University of Chicago
and
FRANK A. GALLUP, A.M. Professor of Latin, Colgate Academy
=Half Leather, 12mo, 566 pages, with Maps and Illustrations. Price, $1.30=
This edition of Cicero contains in addition to selected letters all the orations required by all the colleges throughout the country. It is intended to be distinctly practical and aims solely to meet the needs of secondary and preparatory schools.
=The Orations= have been arranged in the order in which it is thought they can be read to the best advantage and include, besides the four against Catiline, those for Archais, Milo, Marcellus, and Ligarius, Pompey's Commission, and the Fourteenth Philippic.
=The Letters= have been selected with special reference to their fitness for reading at sight and for this purpose they have no equal in Roman literature.
=The Introduction= includes a well balanced life of Cicero with a just estimate of his standing and character and many helpful features which will give the student a comprehensive knowledge of Roman life and politics.
=The Notes= suggest rather than tell the student and help him to get, instead of getting for him, that acquaintance with the orator and with the language which is the result of true study.
=The Vocabulary= shows great care and thoroughness and meets the requirements of the average student.
=The Maps= are accurate and drawn especially for this work and the Illustrations are happily chosen to illustrate both text and time.

LATIN LITERATURE OF THE EMPIRE
=Selected and Edited with Revised Texts and Brief Introductions=
By ALFRED GUDEMAN, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Classical Philology, University of Pennsylvania
=In Two Volumes. Cloth, 12mo. Per Volume, $1.80=
VOL. I--PROSE. Selections from Velleius, Curtius, Seneca Rhetor, Justinus (Trogus Pompeius), Seneca, Petronius, including Cena Trimalchionis, Pliny the Elder, Quintilian, Tacitus, Pliny the Younger, Suetonius, Minucius Felix Octavius, Apuleius--Ammianus Marcellinus, and Boethius.
VOL. II--POETRY. Pseudo Vergiliana, Aetna, Manilius, Calpurnius, Nemesianus, Phaedrus, Lucan, Valerius Flaccus, Seneca, the Octavia (anonymous), Persius, Statius, Silius Italicus, Martial, Juvenal, Pervigilium Veneris, Ausonius, and Claudianus.
The works of Latin Literature of the post-Augustan period have hitherto, with a few notable exceptions, been virtually excluded from the classical curricula of colleges and universities.
The present collection has been made primarily for the use of students in higher classes in colleges. The selections will be found useful as collateral reading in connection with lectures on classical literature, and will also furnish suitable material for sight reading.
The selections themselves contain nothing that is not eminently worthy of perusal. They are in every case sufficiently extensive to give a continuous and coherent story, which at the same time exhibits the author at his best. The text follows the best modern editions, the deviations from the standard texts being briefly recorded in critical appendices.

INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF LATIN INSCRIPTIONS
By JAMES C. EGBERT, Jr., Ph.D. Adjunct Professor of Latin, Columbia University
=Half Morocco, large 12mo, 468 pages. With numerous illustrations and exact reproductions of inscriptions Price, $3 50=
This work is designed as a text-book for the use of students in Universities and Colleges, and also to furnish an account of this branch of archaeological study for general readers. It has been prepared in the belief that a knowledge of epigraphy forms an essential part of the equipment of a teacher of the classics, and that the subject itself has become so important as to justify its introduction, in elementary form at least, into the curriculum of undergraduate studies.
A distinctive feature of the book is the number and character of its illustrations,--there being over seven hundred cuts and diagrams of inscriptions, for the purpose of illustrating the text, and for practice in reading. Of these, over one hundred are photographic reproductions, showing the forms of the letters and the arrangement of the inscriptions. The work is also supplied with an exhaustive bibliography and valuable tables of abbreviations, archaisms, etc.
