DARNELL'S COPY-BOOKS,

The first ten of which have, on every alternate line, appropriate and neatly-written Copies, in pencil-coloured ink, to be first written over, and then imitated; the remaining numbers having black head-lines for imitation only; the whole gradually advancing from the simple stroke to a superior small-hand. By GEORGE Darnell. Large post, 16 Numbers, 6d. each. Oblong fcap., 24 Numbers, 3d. each.

These Copy-books are the production of an experienced Schoolmaster, and will be found to insure the progress of the pupil, and greatly to lighten the labour of the teacher. The number and variety of the copies secure attention, and prevent the pupil copying his own writing, as in books with single head-lines.

"For teaching writing I would recommend the use of Darnell's Copy-books. I HAVE NOTICED A MARKED IMPROVEMENT WHEREVER THEY HAVE BEEN USED."-Report of Mr. Maye (N.S. Organizer of Schools) to the Worcester Diocesan Board of Education.
