+    POETICAL PREFACE
+    TO THE
+    ROYAL PICTURE ALPHABET.
+
+    TO PRECEPTORS.
+
+
+    With learning may laughter be found,
+      "'Tis good to be merry and wise;"
+    To gaily get over the ground,
+      As higher and higher we rise.
+
+    Some children their letters may learn,
+      While others will surely do more,
+    As the subjects suggestively turn
+      To matters not thought of before.
+
+    Descriptions and pictures combined
+      Are here made attractive and clear;
+    So suited that children may find
+      From error the truth to appear.

+    For black as soot he's made the soap,
+      And rubbed it in his eyes.

+MORAL TALES.
+
+
+ABLUTION.--Poor little fellow, you are certainly making comical
+faces: I fear the soap has got into your eyes, and that you will
+make that towel very black indeed. All boys, when they wash
+themselves, should take care to rinse off the soap and dirt before
+using the towel. To make the poor little sweep quite clean would
+take much washing. I should like to see the soap and water a little
+cleaner. Many of us have nice wash-stands and baths of marble, but
+this poor little fellow must make the best of what he can get. See
+how cleverly he has put a brick under the broken leg of the stool to
+prop it. I like to see boys clever and ingenious.
+
+
+BARTER.--Miss Lucy Hart was a nice girl, but rather thoughtless,
+little regarding any time but the present--new things in her eyes
+being the prettiest and the best;--thus, she would cast away old
+toys for new ones, as if she were not likely to want them again.
+See, Master George Mc Gregor is bartering for her skipping-rope;
+offering some fruit in exchange for it. The fruit he has picked off
+the tree without permission. I know Lucy's mamma will be vexed; for
+not only will the fruit soon be gone, and the skip-rope wanted
+again, but it was a present from Papa. The plaything cost far more
+than a little fruit, which will be quickly eaten, and possibly make
+Lucy unwell after so much as she has had to-day.
+
+
+CATASTROPHE.--Poor dear lady! has the cat tried to help himself to a
+gold fish, and overturned the handsome glass vase? Naughty Tom!
+greedy puss! I am sure kind Mrs. Blossom always feeds you well; and
+I think you know that you have done wrong, or you would not run so
+fast over the rails into Admiral Seaworth's garden, where he keeps
+his large dog Neptune, who may bark and send you back in a fright.
+
+Poor fish, see how they gasp!--run and fetch some water, or they
+will die. Men drown in water, but fish cannot live out of it. It is
+the nature of cats to catch mice and birds--so that we should keep
+our little favourites out of their reach.
+
+
+DELIGHTFUL.--These boys, I fear, are bathing without their parents'
+consent, which is very wrong, indeed. It is very pleasant in the
+water on a fine day; but little boys should not go there, as it
+might be deep, and they might become cramped in their limbs, and be
+drowned when no one was near, as many naughty boys have been before
+now.
+
+It is proper that boys should learn to swim, when with Papa or some
+kind friend, but not as these boys have. I feel just sure they have
+played the truant--as I see the village school-master, with his
+little dog, coming over the rustic bridge to catch them.
+
+I think that the letter D might, in this case, stand for Disobedient
+as well as Delightful.
+
+
+ECCENTRICITY.--What have we here?--a very odd, comical picture,
+indeed! What a strange fellow, to put his hat upon the fire, and a
+saucepan on his head. I do declare he has his trowsers and waistcoat
+on wrong side before. See, he has taken the poker for a
+walking-stick, put a greasy candle in the book, and the eggs upon
+the floor. Why a small baby-boy would not do this: the poor fellow
+must be out of his right mind. You may laugh at this odd picture for
+it is very ridiculous, and will hurt no one; but good children
+should never make sport of those who are deformed in mind or body,
+for it is not a fault but a misfortune to be so.
+
+
+FRAUD.--Patrick Murphy--commonly called, for shortness, Pat--was a
+very stupid little man; he reared pigs, and had he been sober, would
+have by this time saved a little property; but, no, Pat liked beer
+and strong drink: so that upon market-days he was far less sensible
+than his own jackass--which did know its way home--and for a long
+time took back foolish tipsy Pat safely; until one day, the roads
+being very bad, the cart came to a stop, and Neddy could pull no
+further. A rogue passing, seeing Pat asleep, unloosed the donkey
+from the cart, leaving Pat to awake, and much wonder what could have
+become of Neddy Bray, the donkey.
+
+It was very wrong of the man to take Pat's donkey, although Pat was
+a drunken fellow.
+
+
+GENIUS.--Bravo! my little Artist. I dare say if you try again you
+will improve upon your first attempt. All people should learn to
+draw, that they may be able to describe a form in a very few lines,
+making things intelligible at sight which could not be described in
+any other way. A little knowledge of drawing will lead to a love of
+pictures and delight in the beautiful works of nature. Giotto, a
+great painter, who lived many hundred years ago, was but a poor
+shepherd-boy, who amused himself by drawing portraits of his sheep
+as he tended them on the hills; from rude attempts he rose to be a
+great artist, whose works are treasured by kings and princes. I dare
+say you may some day see some of the works of Giotto, the great
+Italian painter.
+
+
+HORROR.--This drawing represents little Lady Selina Jemima Townsend
+as she appeared when afraid. Afraid--of what? Why, a poor tiny
+reptile, a harmless frog, that had jumped into her hat full of
+daisies, with a croak, as much as to say--"How do you do? Good
+morning, Lady Townsend; I am glad to see you down in the country."
+But what do you think she did? Why, the little lady scampered away
+as fast as she could to her governess, in whose dress she hid her
+face, crying,--saying she had seen "a nasty horrid thing." For this
+her governess reproved her, saying, "God created nothing in vain."
+Frogs are harmless and beautiful when in the water, through which
+they can swim and dive with wonderful ease.
+
+
+ICHABOD AT THE JAM.--Ichabod is an odd name, but such is the name of
+the little boy in the picture. He was much pampered by his parents,
+and never knew when he had had enough. Ichabod would cry for things
+to eat, then cry again because he could eat no more, and after all
+cry, because eating made him feel sick and ill: but that was not
+all; Ichabod was, I am ashamed to say, a thief. He stole the jam
+when his mother thought he was asleep in bed. See, Betty the maid
+has heard a noise, and caught the rogue in the act. To-morrow and
+for many days Ichabod will be ill in bed, and have to take much
+nasty physic. I wish he had _mis_-taken the mustard for honey, and
+burnt his naughty, fibbing tongue.
+
+
+KNOWING.--Ah! ah! Jemmy Small. I fear the steeds are too knowing for
+you to-day. They appear conscious: they would like the beans and
+corn you have in the sieve, but do not like the halter you are
+hiding behind your back. More than one has kicked up his heels, as
+much as to say--"Catch me if you can!" You seem to think, as you
+bite the straw in your mouth, that they may give you a pretty run. I
+know Bob, the pony, will not be soon caught.
+
+Horses and other animals like play much better than work, but good
+boys and girls ought to love both, and not require sweetmeats to
+induce them to do their duty--for they have intellects of a high
+order, and may become clever men and women.
+
+
+LUCKY.--Master Lovebook was indeed lucky in his escape from the
+Bull--and I will tell you how it happened: In going to school, this
+young gentleman had to go round by the wood and across the meadows,
+when one day he observed a savage bull making towards him; alarmed,
+he did not run crying anywhere, but considered one moment, and made
+back the shortest way to the wood, with all speed for the posts,
+just as the savage animal was going to toss him high in the air.
+
+Master Lovebook was unfortunate in meeting the bull, but fortunate
+in having the posts between him and the infuriated animal.
+
+In danger, brave little boys never cry, but think what is the best
+to be done.
+
+
+MIMIC.--To be vain of anything is not right, and to be proud of fine
+clothes very silly indeed. The young gentleman in the picture, I
+think, is vain. See, he is smoking a cigar, and if we may judge by
+the expression of his face, we may presume that he does not fully
+enjoy it. As he struts along the rude boys ridicule him. See the boy
+behind mimicking his airs and graces--using the handle of the
+door-key for an eye-glass. I fear that lad's mirth will soon be
+changed into sorrow--for the jug must be broken against the post,
+and the beer spilled--so that in turn he will be laughed at.
+
+We cannot help smiling at the little coxcomb, although at the same
+time we pity him.
+
+
+NEGLIGENCE.--Here is Tommy Slowboy, the lowest boy in the
+day-school, too idle to learn or even play. See how vacantly he
+stands gaping at the men clearing the snow from the house-tops, with
+his hand in his pocket because he has lost his glove, having placed
+the hot shoulder of mutton down in the cold snow. No wonder the
+first dog passing helps itself to the joint. Tom will not only be
+chid, but have to go without his dinner. Yet, what cares Tom for
+scolding or anything else, he who is so neglectful of duty?
+
+Mind that you strive to learn early, that you may become wise and
+happy hereafter. Look at the picture of Tommy Slowboy, and avoid
+apathy and indolence.
+
+
+OBSTINACY.--Obstinacy is a sad thing. See the naughty Pig in the
+picture, how he pulls in the opposite direction. Master Pig will be
+obliged to go into the sty, and very likely get the whip for his
+pains; like a wayward child that gets chid for disobedience. I hope
+there are very few disobedient young ladies and gentlemen, like the
+perverse pig. The pig is a stupid animal: but I have heard of a
+learned pig that could tell his letters, pointing to them with his
+snout; but most swine are dirty in their ways, and not at all
+particular--little caring so long as they can eat, grunt, and sleep.
+The pig will often lie in the dirtiest corner of his house, and
+stand in its trough of food.
+
+
+PETS.--Here is a portrait of Aunt Gray feeding her Pets, or
+rather stuffing the poor monkey. Some people say Miss Gray is
+kind to animals, but I do not think so, for she keeps her pets
+prisoners--feeding them too much, and all for her own pleasure,
+until they become like spoilt children, peevish, and always wanting
+sweet things. Kind children love animals, and delight to see them
+free. In the Zoological Gardens animals are not pets; they have
+there plenty of room, and are nicely kept for our instruction. See,
+poor Jacko, the monkey, has grown too fat to leap, as in his native
+woods he used, from bough to bough. The poor gold fish have hardly
+room to turn in their glass prison: how they would enjoy a swim in
+the garden pond!
+
+
+QUANDARY.--Poor Dame Partlet having got into the back yard cannot
+get out again. She is in a Quandary, for she fears the dogs will
+bite her--though their chains are not long enough. Keeper, the
+mastiff, is a noble fellow, and would not hurt women or children;
+neither would Nero, the bull-dog; he would rather face a lion or a
+wild ox: whilst Snap, the terrier, barks and snarls in the company
+of his brave companions.
+
+Little boys and girls should not touch strange dogs, for they
+sometimes snap at those who are not familiar to them. To take food
+from dogs is not prudent, for they growl, bite, and are
+ill-tempered, like a little fellow would be if deprived of his
+dinner, after he had tasted the first morsel.
+
+
+RIVALRY.--To compete for good is famous--such as little boys
+rivalling one another in a race up the Ladder of Learning--that is
+exercise of the mind. Here we have a picture of country boys
+exercising their strength--climbing up a pole covered with grease,
+for a prize of food for the body. The boy that wins the leg of
+mutton will be the hero of the fair, and be carried round the place
+on the shoulders of the men. See how they strive and tear to win the
+prize. I should not wonder if they all slipped down together,
+notwithstanding the encouraging cheers of the crowd. See how the man
+on the housetop swings his hat in the air, and the people applaud. A
+few inches higher, and the prize is won.
+
+
+SLUGGARD.--Heavy-headed, sleepy Ned, awake, arise! You lazy fellow!
+Look at the clock! Eight hours' rest is enough for any little
+boy--and here you have taken nearly fourteen. All Sluggards should
+get their slates, and calculate how much time they waste every
+year--weeks that can never be regained. If you only lie in bed two
+hours later than you should every day, you lose more than one day in
+a week, or sixty-four days in the course of the year: which, at the
+end of seventy years, would be awful indeed! Twelve whole years
+lost! Lazy, idle people, never seem to have time for anything:
+industrious ones, time for anything and everything. I hope when
+little Ned sees his portrait he will be shocked with his appearance,
+and reform his ways.
+
+
+TOPSY-TURVY.--Well, of all the funny pictures in this droll book I
+think this the drollest--a big letter T resting on its top on the
+ceiling, like in an overturned doll's house, or a view taken by an
+artist standing upon his head. Turn it over, and see how comical it
+looks--everything appears to have lost its gravity.
+
+_Gravity_ means the power that holds us to the earth (as Papa's
+loadstone attracts the needle): if it were not for gravity, we could
+not move about. Some day you shall read in that nice book called the
+"Evenings at Home," about gravity, and why an apple falls to the
+ground. A great philosopher, Sir Isaac Newton, discovered why, as he
+lay under a tree. At a future time you will learn about gravity and
+many other things.
+
+
+UNCOMMON VEGETATION.--Uncle Periwinkle was very kind; he loved
+nature and his nephews dearly. He wore green spectacles, a
+dressing-gown all covered with leaves, and a large straw hat; in
+fact he was very fond of gardening, and reared all kinds of odd
+plants--this his nephews knew, and determined to play a joke upon
+him--not a cruel, heartless joke, that would hurt or destroy
+anything: no! they were too kind for that. They only carefully tied
+the carpenter's planes upon the plane-tree, as if it were fruit--and
+some little boxes of all colours upon the box-tree, like blossom; so
+that when the old gentleman beheld it, he exclaimed--"Uncommon
+Vegetation!" upon which John and Walter came laughing out of the
+greenhouse to receive a bunch of fine grapes for their pleasant
+joke.
+
+
+WONDER.--So, Master Ploughboy Giles, you are spending your penny and
+your holiday at the fair. You seem not a little astonished at what
+you have seen in that peep-show. Surely you cannot imagine that they
+are real; it is the magnifying power of the glasses that makes the
+pictures appear so large. The pyramids of Egypt are the largest
+stone buildings in the world, and the oldest; the Behemoth, a huge
+animal that existed thousands of years ago (but I do not think it
+had wings like a butterfly, as in the showman's picture); Daniel
+Lambert was an enormously fat man, who died a long time back. All
+these things must be in miniature if they are to be seen in that
+small box, very little larger than a dog's house.
+
+
+XANTIPPE.--The comical event pictured here occurred more than
+two thousand years ago: Xantippe, the wife of the great and
+good philosopher Socrates, continually tormented him with her
+ill-humour--using him very cruelly--one day emptying a vessel
+of dirty water over her celebrated husband, whom she ought to
+have loved: he only remarked, that "after thunder there generally
+falls rain." Socrates lived in the refined city of Athens; he was
+one of the most eminent philosophers of Greece; he was very plain
+in person, as you perceive by the picture: but a man may be great
+and good, yet ugly, as Socrates was. The philosopher had enemies
+who sought his destruction; he was killed with poison. After his
+death his accusers were despised, as you will read in ancient
+history some day.
+
+
+YEARN.--What have we here? Little Miss Cross vexed, just because she
+cannot get at the grapes. I am sure I should not like to have my
+portrait drawn with such a sullen face. She has been trying to take
+fruit without her aunt's permission, that very likely is unripe and
+improper for her. The walk in a delightful garden ought not to make
+her long to eat all the fruit she sets eyes upon, or wish to pick
+the sweet flowers, that last much longer upon the plants than when
+plucked. I perceive that the peevish young lady in the picture has
+been picking the flowers. See, they are strewn upon the seat beside
+her, under those dirty feet that have trodden down the beds of
+mould. I am afraid Miss Cross cannot be a joyous, happy child,
+because disobedient.
+
+
+ZANY.--Finis is the Latin word for finish, and here it is the last
+droll picture--a Zany laughing at his portrait in this comical book,
+which he seems vastly to enjoy. What a droll fellow, to read with
+his head where his heels should be, like the clown in the pantomime.
+Look at his staff, the cock and bells, with which he dances, making
+a jingling noise. A Zany is not an idiot, but often a funny clever
+fellow, paid to make people laugh. We all like a good laugh
+sometimes. Many years ago kings used to keep jesters to amuse the
+company; King Henry the Eighth had a clever jester, called Will
+Somers, whose portrait was painted by a great artist named Holbein,
+which is now in the palace at Hampton Court, and may be seen by
+those who love pictures.

+    ILLUSTRATED
+    POPULAR
+    EDUCATIONAL WORKS,
+
+    PUBLISHED BY
+    WARD AND LOCK, 158, FLEET STREET,
+    LONDON.
+
+    Messrs. WARD and LOCK have much pleasure in announcing
+    that they have just purchased the Copyrights of many of
+    the Valuable ILLUSTRATED EDUCATIONAL WORKS lately
+    published from the office of the _Illustrated London News_.
+    The New Editions of these Popular Books have been most
+    carefully revised, and in their present state arrive as
+    near perfection as possible. It is the intention of the
+    present proprietors of these Educational Books to continue
+    the Series, and they have already made arrangements to
+    this effect.
+
+    The object of the Publishers is to supply a Series of
+    Illustrated Volumes, adapted both for Schools and Private
+    Study, which shall be accurate and complete text-books,
+    _and at a price within the reach of every one_.
+
+    The old system of instruction, by which the names of things
+    only were presented to the mind of the pupil, has been long
+    admitted to have been imperfect and unsuccessful. With the
+    young it is necessary to speak to the Eye, as well as to
+    the Mind--to give a picture of an object as well as a
+    description; and the adoption of such a plan of tuition is
+    not only far more effective than that which is confined to
+    words, but is at the same time much less irksome to the
+    teacher, and more pleasant to the pupil. A greater interest
+    is excited, and the representation of the object remains
+    clear and distinct in the mind of the child long after the
+    verbal description has passed away.

+        Works," see Catalogue.

+
+    THE ILLUSTRATED
+    WEBSTER
+    SPELLING BOOK.
+
+    Demy 8vo, embellished with upwards of
+    250 SPLENDID ENGRAVINGS
+
+    By GILBERT, HARVEY, DALZIEL, and other eminent artists.
+    128 pp., new and accented type, upon the principle of "Webster's
+    Dictionary of the English Language." Cloth, gilt lettered,
+    price 1s.; coloured, 2s.
+
+    *.* The "ILLUSTRATED WEBSTER SPELLING BOOK" has been most
+    carefully compiled by an Eminent English Scholar, who is
+    daily engaged in the tuition of youth, and, therefore, knows
+    exactly what is really useful in a Spelling Book. The
+    Reading Lessons are arranged upon a new progressive
+    principle, exceedingly simple, and well adapted for the
+    purpose. The Accented Type has been adopted, so as to ensure
+    correct pronunciation. The old system of mis-spelling words
+    is dangerous in the extreme, and, therefore, very justly,
+    has now fallen into disuse. In a word, the "ILLUSTRATED
+    WEBSTER SPELLING BOOK," whether considered in respect to its
+    Typography, Binding, or Beauty of its Illustrations, must
+    take the highest position as a School-Book, entirely setting
+    aside the old-fashioned, and, in most instances,
+    unintelligible--so called--helps to learning.
+
+    N.B.--Be careful to order "THE ILLUSTRATED WEBSTER SPELLING
+    BOOK."

+    POCKET PRONOUNCING DICTIONARY
+
+    Of the English Language;
+
+    Condensed from the Original Dictionary by NOAH WEBSTER,
+    LL.D. With Accented Vocabularies of Classical, Scriptural,
+    and Modern Geographical Names. Revised Edition, by WILLIAM
+    G. WEBSTER (Son of NOAH WEBSTER). Royal 16mo, cloth gilt,
+    2s. 6d.; or strongly bound in roan, gilt, 3s.
+
+    *.* The Public will do well to be on their guard against
+    unfair statements in reference to "Dr. Webster's" principle
+    of pronunciation by accents. The old system of pronunciation
+    by mis-spelling words has become obsolete, and Dr. Webster's
+    method is universally acknowledged and adopted.

+
+    The extraordinary success attendant upon the publication of
+    the Half-crown Edition of WEBSTER'S POCKET PRONOUNCING
+    DICTIONARY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE,--in the face of a most
+    obstinate and inveterate opposition on the part of the
+    proprietors of the out-of-date and worthless compilations,
+    so called Dictionaries, printed from old stereotype plates,
+    which have remained unaltered for years,--has induced
+    Messrs. WARD and LOCK to issue a CHEAPER EDITION FOR THE
+    MILLION, price only =ONE SHILLING AND SIXPENCE!!!=
+
+    *.* The New Edition at =1s. 6d.= will, of course, be printed
+    on thinner paper, but still the type will appear perfectly
+    distinct. It is almost unnecessary to state, that only an
+    enormous sale can reimburse the Publishers in issuing an
+    edition at so low a price as =1s. 6d.=; still, Messrs. WARD
+    and LOCK feel assured that their good intentions will be
+    appreciated by an extensive and continually increasing sale.
+    "WEBSTER" is now the only reliable authority on the English
+    Language, and it is only right that every Englishman,
+    however humble his sphere, should be able to purchase the
+    best English Dictionary. Whilst the Cheaper Edition, at
+    =1s. 6d.=, is well adapted for National and British Schools,
+    the Half-Crown Edition, on superior paper, and bound in
+    cloth, gilt lettered, will be always in demand for Schools
+    of a higher grade.

+    cloth, 2s.
+
+    *.* This extremely popular and useful "Drawing Book" has
+    been thoroughly revised by the Author, and many new
+    Illustrations are added, thus rendering the =Third Edition=
+    the most perfect Handbook of Drawing for Schools and
+    Students.
+
+    "This is one of those cheap and useful publications lately
+    issued by WARD and LOCK. It is what it professes to be--an
+    elementary book, in which the rules laid down are simple and
+    few, and the drawings to be copied and studied are easily
+    delineated and illustrative or first principles."--_Globe._
+
+    "We could point to a work selling for twelve shillings not
+    half so complete, nor containing half the number of
+    illustrations. Perhaps of all the books for which the public
+    are indebted to Messrs. WARD and LOCK this one will be found
+    most extensively and practically useful. It is the
+    completest thing of the kind which has ever
+    appeared."--_Tait's Magazine._

+    have met with. The illustrations, diagrams, and explanations

+
+    "Mr. BURN's History of the Steam Engine treats an

+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org.  Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official
+page at http://pglaf.org

+     Chief Executive and Director
+     gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+<hr class="hr2" />
+
+<p>ABLUTION.&#8212;Poor little fellow, you are certainly making comical
+faces: I fear the soap has got into your eyes, and that you will
+make that towel very black indeed. All boys, when they wash
+themselves, should take care to rinse off the soap and dirt before
+using the towel. To make the poor little sweep quite clean would
+take much washing. I should like to see the soap and water a little
+cleaner. Many of us have nice wash-stands and baths of marble, but
+this poor little fellow must make the best of what he can get. See
+how cleverly he has put a brick under the broken leg of the stool to
+prop it. I like to see boys clever and ingenious.</p>
+
+
+<p>BARTER.&#8212;Miss Lucy Hart was a nice girl, but rather thoughtless,
+little regarding any time but the present&#8212;new things in her eyes
+being the prettiest and the best;&#8212;thus, she would cast away old
+toys for new ones, as if she were not likely to want them again.
+See, Master George Mc&#160;Gregor is bartering for her skipping-rope;
+offering some fruit in exchange for it. The fruit he has picked off
+the tree without permission. I know Lucy&#8217;s mamma will be vexed; for
+not only will the fruit soon be gone, and the skip-rope wanted
+again, but it was a present from Papa. The plaything cost far more
+than a little fruit, which will be quickly eaten, and possibly make
+Lucy unwell after so much as she has had to-day.</p>
+
+
+<p>CATASTROPHE.&#8212;Poor dear lady! has the cat tried to help himself to a
+gold fish, and overturned the handsome glass vase? Naughty Tom!
+greedy puss! I am sure kind Mrs. Blossom always feeds you well; and
+I think you know that you have done wrong, or you would not run so
+fast over the rails into Admiral Seaworth&#8217;s garden, where he keeps
+his large dog Neptune, who may bark and send you back in a fright.</p>
+
+<p>Poor fish, see how they gasp!&#8212;run and fetch some water, or they
+will die. Men drown in water, but fish cannot live out of it. It is
+the nature of cats to catch mice and birds&#8212;so that we should keep
+our little favourites out of their reach.</p>
+
+
+<p>DELIGHTFUL.&#8212;These boys, I fear, are bathing without their parents&#8217;
+consent, which is very wrong, indeed. It is very pleasant in the
+water on a fine day; but little boys should not go there, as it
+might be deep, and they might become cramped in their limbs, and be
+drowned when no one was near, as many naughty boys have been before
+now.</p>
+
+<p>It is proper that boys should learn to swim, when with Papa or some
+kind friend, but not as these boys have. I feel just sure they have
+played the truant&#8212;as I see the village school-master, with his
+little dog, coming over the rustic bridge to catch them.</p>
+
+<p>I think that the letter D might, in this case, stand for Disobedient
+as well as Delightful.</p>
+
+
+<p>ECCENTRICITY.&#8212;What have we here?&#8212;a very odd, comical picture,
+indeed! What a strange fellow, to put his hat upon the fire, and a
+saucepan on his head. I do declare he has his trowsers and waistcoat
+on wrong side before. See, he has taken the poker for a
+walking-stick, put a greasy candle in the book, and the eggs upon
+the floor. Why a small baby-boy would not do this: the poor fellow
+must be out of his right mind. You may laugh at this odd picture for
+it is very ridiculous, and will hurt no one; but good children
+should never make sport of those who are deformed in mind or body,
+for it is not a fault but a misfortune to be so.</p>
+
+
+<p>FRAUD.&#8212;Patrick Murphy&#8212;commonly called, for shortness, Pat&#8212;was a
+very stupid little man; he reared pigs, and had he been sober, would
+have by this time saved a little property; but, no, Pat liked beer
+and strong drink: so that upon market-days he was far less sensible
+than his own jackass&#8212;which did know its way home&#8212;and for a long
+time took back foolish tipsy Pat safely; until one day, the roads
+being very bad, the cart came to a stop, and Neddy could pull no
+further. A rogue passing, seeing Pat asleep, unloosed the donkey
+from the cart, leaving Pat to awake, and much wonder what could have
+become of Neddy Bray, the donkey.</p>
+
+<p>It was very wrong of the man to take Pat&#8217;s donkey, although Pat was
+a drunken fellow.</p>
+
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_31" id="Page_31">[Pg 31]</a></span>GENIUS.&#8212;Bravo! my little Artist. I dare say if you try again you
+will improve upon your first attempt. All people should learn to
+draw, that they may be able to describe a form in a very few lines,
+making things intelligible at sight which could not be described in
+any other way. A little knowledge of drawing will lead to a love of
+pictures and delight in the beautiful works of nature. Giotto, a
+great painter, who lived many hundred years ago, was but a poor
+shepherd-boy, who amused himself by drawing portraits of his sheep
+as he tended them on the hills; from rude attempts he rose to be a
+great artist, whose works are treasured by kings and princes. I dare
+say you may some day see some of the works of Giotto, the great
+Italian painter.</p>
+
+
+<p>HORROR.&#8212;This drawing represents little Lady Selina Jemima Townsend
+as she appeared when afraid. Afraid&#8212;of what? Why, a poor tiny
+reptile, a harmless frog, that had jumped into her hat full of
+daisies, with a croak, as much as to say&#8212;&#8220;How do you do? Good
+morning, Lady Townsend; I am glad to see you down in the country.&#8221;
+But what do you think she did? Why, the little lady scampered away
+as fast as she could to her governess, in whose dress she hid her
+face, crying,&#8212;saying she had seen &#8220;a nasty horrid thing.&#8221; For this
+her governess reproved her, saying, &#8220;God created nothing in vain.&#8221;
+Frogs are harmless and beautiful when in the water, through which
+they can swim and dive with wonderful ease.</p>
+
+
+<p>ICHABOD AT THE JAM.&#8212;Ichabod is an odd name, but such is the name of
+the little boy in the picture. He was much pampered by his parents,
+and never knew when he had had enough. Ichabod would cry for things
+to eat, then cry again because he could eat no more, and after all
+cry, because eating made him feel sick and ill: but that was not
+all; Ichabod was, I am ashamed to say, a thief. He stole the jam
+when his mother thought he was asleep in bed. See, Betty the maid
+has heard a noise, and caught the rogue in the act. To-morrow and
+for many days Ichabod will be ill in bed, and have to take much
+nasty physic. I wish he had <i>mis</i>-taken the mustard for honey, and
+burnt his naughty, fibbing tongue.</p>
+
+
+<p>KNOWING.&#8212;Ah! ah! Jemmy Small. I fear the steeds are too knowing for
+you to-day. They appear conscious: they would like the beans and
+corn you have in the sieve, but do not like the halter you are
+hiding behind your back. More than one has kicked up his heels, as
+much as to say&#8212;&#8220;Catch me if you can!&#8221; You seem to think, as you
+bite the straw in your mouth, that they may give you a pretty run. I
+know Bob, the pony, will not be soon caught.</p>
+
+<p>Horses and other animals like play much better than work, but good
+boys and girls ought to love both, and not require sweetmeats to
+induce them to do their duty&#8212;for they have intellects of a high
+order, and may become clever men and women.</p>
+
+
+<p>LUCKY.&#8212;Master Lovebook was indeed lucky in his escape from the
+Bull&#8212;and I will tell you how it happened: In going to school, this
+young gentleman had to go round by the wood and across the meadows,
+when one day he observed a savage bull making towards him; alarmed,
+he did not run crying anywhere, but considered one moment, and made
+back the shortest way to the wood, with all speed for the posts,
+just as the savage animal was going to toss him high in the air.</p>
+
+<p>Master Lovebook was unfortunate in meeting the bull, but fortunate
+in having the posts between him and the infuriated animal.</p>
+
+<p>In danger, brave little boys never cry, but think what is the best
+to be done.</p>
+
+
+<p>MIMIC.&#8212;To be vain of anything is not right, and to be proud of fine
+clothes very silly indeed. The young gentleman in the picture, I
+think, is vain. See, he is smoking a cigar, and if we may judge by
+the expression of his face, we may presume that he does not fully
+enjoy it. As he struts along the rude boys ridicule him. See the boy
+behind mimicking his airs and graces&#8212;using the handle of the
+door-key for an eye-glass. I fear that lad&#8217;s mirth will soon be
+changed into sorrow&#8212;for the jug must be broken against the post,
+and the beer spilled&#8212;so that in turn he will be laughed at.</p>
+
+<p>We cannot help smiling at the little coxcomb, although at the same
+time we pity him.</p>
+
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_32" id="Page_32">[Pg 32]</a></span>NEGLIGENCE.&#8212;Here is Tommy Slowboy, the lowest boy in the
+day-school, too idle to learn or even play. See how vacantly he
+stands gaping at the men clearing the snow from the house-tops, with
+his hand in his pocket because he has lost his glove, having placed
+the hot shoulder of mutton down in the cold snow. No wonder the
+first dog passing helps itself to the joint. Tom will not only be
+chid, but have to go without his dinner. Yet, what cares Tom for
+scolding or anything else, he who is so neglectful of duty?</p>
+
+<p>Mind that you strive to learn early, that you may become wise and
+happy hereafter. Look at the picture of Tommy Slowboy, and avoid
+apathy and indolence.</p>
+
+
+<p>OBSTINACY.&#8212;Obstinacy is a sad thing. See the naughty Pig in the
+picture, how he pulls in the opposite direction. Master Pig will be
+obliged to go into the sty, and very likely get the whip for his
+pains; like a wayward child that gets chid for disobedience. I hope
+there are very few disobedient young ladies and gentlemen, like the
+perverse pig. The pig is a stupid animal: but I have heard of a
+learned pig that could tell his letters, pointing to them with his
+snout; but most swine are dirty in their ways, and not at all
+particular&#8212;little caring so long as they can eat, grunt, and sleep.
+The pig will often lie in the dirtiest corner of his house, and
+stand in its trough of food.</p>
+
+
+<p>PETS.&#8212;Here is a portrait of Aunt Gray feeding her Pets, or
+rather stuffing the poor monkey. Some people say Miss Gray is
+kind to animals, but I do not think so, for she keeps her pets
+prisoners&#8212;feeding them too much, and all for her own pleasure,
+until they become like spoilt children, peevish, and always wanting
+sweet things. Kind children love animals, and delight to see them
+free. In the Zoological Gardens animals are not pets; they have
+there plenty of room, and are nicely kept for our instruction. See,
+poor Jacko, the monkey, has grown too fat to leap, as in his native
+woods he used, from bough to bough. The poor gold fish have hardly
+room to turn in their glass prison: how they would enjoy a swim in
+the garden pond!</p>
+
+
+<p>QUANDARY.&#8212;Poor Dame Partlet having got into the back yard cannot
+get out again. She is in a Quandary, for she fears the dogs will
+bite her&#8212;though their chains are not long enough. Keeper, the
+mastiff, is a noble fellow, and would not hurt women or children;
+neither would Nero, the bull-dog; he would rather face a lion or a
+wild ox: whilst Snap, the terrier, barks and snarls in the company
+of his brave companions.</p>
+
+<p>Little boys and girls should not touch strange dogs, for they
+sometimes snap at those who are not familiar to them. To take food
+from dogs is not prudent, for they growl, bite, and are
+ill-tempered, like a little fellow would be if deprived of his
+dinner, after he had tasted the first morsel.</p>
+
+
+<p>RIVALRY.&#8212;To compete for good is famous&#8212;such as little boys
+rivalling one another in a race up the Ladder of Learning&#8212;that is
+exercise of the mind. Here we have a picture of country boys
+exercising their strength&#8212;climbing up a pole covered with grease,
+for a prize of food for the body. The boy that wins the leg of
+mutton will be the hero of the fair, and be carried round the place
+on the shoulders of the men. See how they strive and tear to win the
+prize. I should not wonder if they all slipped down together,
+notwithstanding the encouraging cheers of the crowd. See how the man
+on the housetop swings his hat in the air, and the people applaud. A
+few inches higher, and the prize is won.</p>
+
+
+<p>SLUGGARD.&#8212;Heavy-headed, sleepy Ned, awake, arise! You lazy fellow!
+Look at the clock! Eight hours&#8217; rest is enough for any little
+boy&#8212;and here you have taken nearly fourteen. All Sluggards should
+get their slates, and calculate how much time they waste every
+year&#8212;weeks that can never be regained. If you only lie in bed two
+hours later than you should every day, you lose more than one day in
+a week, or sixty-four days in the course of the year: which, at the
+end of seventy years, would be awful indeed! Twelve whole years
+lost! Lazy, idle people, never seem to have time for anything:
+industrious ones, time for anything and everything. I hope when
+little Ned sees his portrait he will be shocked with his appearance,
+and reform his ways.</p>
+
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_33" id="Page_33">[Pg 33]</a></span>TOPSY-TURVY.&#8212;Well, of all the funny pictures in this droll book I
+think this the drollest&#8212;a big letter T resting on its top on the
+ceiling, like in an overturned doll&#8217;s house, or a view taken by an
+artist standing upon his head. Turn it over, and see how comical it
+looks&#8212;everything appears to have lost its gravity.</p>
+
+<p><i>Gravity</i> means the power that holds us to the earth (as Papa&#8217;s
+loadstone attracts the needle): if it were not for gravity, we could
+not move about. Some day you shall read in that nice book called the
+&#8220;Evenings at Home,&#8221; about gravity, and why an apple falls to the
+ground. A great philosopher, Sir Isaac Newton, discovered why, as he
+lay under a tree. At a future time you will learn about gravity and
+many other things.</p>
+
+
+<p>UNCOMMON VEGETATION.&#8212;Uncle Periwinkle was very kind; he loved
+nature and his nephews dearly. He wore green spectacles, a
+dressing-gown all covered with leaves, and a large straw hat; in
+fact he was very fond of gardening, and reared all kinds of odd
+plants&#8212;this his nephews knew, and determined to play a joke upon
+him&#8212;not a cruel, heartless joke, that would hurt or destroy
+anything: no! they were too kind for that. They only carefully tied
+the carpenter&#8217;s planes upon the plane-tree, as if it were fruit&#8212;and
+some little boxes of all colours upon the box-tree, like blossom; so
+that when the old gentleman beheld it, he exclaimed&#8212;&#8220;Uncommon
+Vegetation!&#8221; upon which John and Walter came laughing out of the
+greenhouse to receive a bunch of fine grapes for their pleasant
+joke.</p>
+
+
+<p>WONDER.&#8212;So, Master Ploughboy Giles, you are spending your penny and
+your holiday at the fair. You seem not a little astonished at what
+you have seen in that peep-show. Surely you cannot imagine that they
+are real; it is the magnifying power of the glasses that makes the
+pictures appear so large. The pyramids of Egypt are the largest
+stone buildings in the world, and the oldest; the Behemoth, a huge
+animal that existed thousands of years ago (but I do not think it
+had wings like a butterfly, as in the showman&#8217;s picture); Daniel
+Lambert was an enormously fat man, who died a long time back. All
+these things must be in miniature if they are to be seen in that
+small box, very little larger than a dog&#8217;s house.</p>
+
+
+<p>XANTIPPE.&#8212;The comical event pictured here occurred more than two
+thousand years ago: Xantippe, the wife of the great and good
+philosopher Socrates, continually tormented him with her
+ill-humour&#8212;using him very cruelly&#8212;one day emptying a vessel of
+dirty water over her celebrated husband, whom she ought to have
+loved: he only remarked, that &#8220;after thunder there generally falls
+rain.&#8221; Socrates lived in the refined city of Athens; he was one of
+the most eminent philosophers of Greece; he was very plain in
+person, as you perceive by the picture: but a man may be great and
+good, yet ugly, as Socrates was. The philosopher had enemies who
+sought his destruction; he was killed with poison. After his death
+his accusers were despised, as you will read in ancient history some
+day.</p>
+
+
+<p>YEARN.&#8212;What have we here? Little Miss Cross vexed, just because she
+cannot get at the grapes. I am sure I should not like to have my
+portrait drawn with such a sullen face. She has been trying to take
+fruit without her aunt&#8217;s permission, that very likely is unripe and
+improper for her. The walk in a delightful garden ought not to make
+her long to eat all the fruit she sets eyes upon, or wish to pick
+the sweet flowers, that last much longer upon the plants than when
+plucked. I perceive that the peevish young lady in the picture has
+been picking the flowers. See, they are strewn upon the seat beside
+her, under those dirty feet that have trodden down the beds of
+mould. I am afraid Miss Cross cannot be a joyous, happy child,
+because disobedient.</p>
+
+
+<p>ZANY.&#8212;Finis is the Latin word for finish, and here it is the last
+droll picture&#8212;a Zany laughing at his portrait in this comical book,
+which he seems vastly to enjoy. What a droll fellow, to read with
+his head where his heels should be, like the clown in the pantomime.
+Look at his staff, the cock and bells, with which he dances, making
+a jingling noise. A Zany is not an idiot, but often a funny clever
+fellow, paid to make people laugh. We all like a good laugh
+sometimes. Many years ago kings used to keep jesters to amuse the
+company; King Henry the Eighth had a clever jester, called Will
+Somers, whose portrait was painted by a great artist named Holbein,
+which is now in the palace at Hampton Court, and may be seen by
+those who love pictures.</p>

+
+<p class="ni">Messrs. WARD and LOCK have much pleasure in announcing
+that they have just purchased the Copyrights of many of
+the Valuable <span class="smcap">Illustrated Educational Works</span> lately
+published from the office of the <i>Illustrated London News</i>.
+The New Editions of these Popular Books have been most
+carefully revised, and in their present state arrive as
+near perfection as possible. It is the intention of the
+present proprietors of these Educational Books to continue
+the Series, and they have already made arrangements to
+this effect.</p>
+
+<p>The object of the Publishers is to supply a Series of
+Illustrated Volumes, adapted both for Schools and Private
+Study, which shall be accurate and complete text-books,
+<i>and at a price within the reach of every one</i>.</p>
+
+<p>The old system of instruction, by which the names of things
+only were presented to the mind of the pupil, has been long
+admitted to have been imperfect and unsuccessful. With the
+young it is necessary to speak to the Eye, as well as to
+the Mind&#8212;to give a picture of an object as well as a
+description; and the adoption of such a plan of tuition is
+not only far more effective than that which is confined to
+words, but is at the same time much less irksome to the
+teacher, and more pleasant to the pupil. A greater interest
+is excited, and the representation of the object remains
+clear and distinct in the mind of the child long after the
+verbal description has passed away.</p>

+Reading Lessons are arranged upon a new progressive
+principle, exceedingly simple, and well adapted for the
+purpose. The Accented Type has been adopted, so as to ensure
+correct pronunciation. The old system of mis-spelling words
+is dangerous in the extreme, and, therefore, very justly,
+has now fallen into disuse. In a word, the &#8220;<span class="smcap">Illustrated
+Webster Spelling Book</span>,&#8221; whether considered in respect to its
+Typography, Binding, or Beauty of its Illustrations, must
+take the highest position as a School-Book, entirely setting

+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B.  "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark.  It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement.  There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement.  See
+paragraph 1.C below.  There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.  See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C.  The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works.  Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States.  If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work.  You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D.  The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work.  Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change.  If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work.  The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E.  Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1.  The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the
+phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever.  You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder.  Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4.  Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5.  Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6.  You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form.  However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form.  Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7.  Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
+unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.

+that
+
+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+     the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+     you already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  The fee is
+     owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+     has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+     Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.  Royalty payments
+     must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+     prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+     returns.  Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+     sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+     address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+     the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+     License.  You must require such a user to return or
+     destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+     and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+     Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+     money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+     electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+     of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+     distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9.  If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark.  Contact the
+Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation

+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at

+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+
+    POETICAL PREFACE
+    TO THE
+    ROYAL PICTURE ALPHABET.
+
+    TO PRECEPTORS.
+
+
+    With learning may laughter be found,
+      "'Tis good to be merry and wise;"
+    To gaily get over the ground,
+      As higher and higher we rise.
+
+    Some children their letters may learn,
+      While others will surely do more,
+    As the subjects suggestively turn
+      To matters not thought of before.
+
+    Descriptions and pictures combined
+      Are here made attractive and clear;
+    So suited that children may find
+      From error the truth to appear.

+A a.
+
+    +-----------------------+
+    |       ABLUTION,       |
+    |_The Act of Cleansing_.|
+    +-----------------------+
+
+    The little sweep has washed his face,
+      But not as we advise:
+    For black as soot he's made the soap,
+      And rubbed it in his eyes.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+B b.
+
+    +-------------------+
+    |BARTER, _Exchange_.|
+    +-------------------+
+
+    Here's Master Mack presenting fruit,
+      Of which he makes display;
+    He knows he'll soon have Lucy's rope,
+      And with it skip away.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+C c.
+
+    +----------------------------+
+    |CATASTROPHE, _a Final Event_|
+    |   (_generally unhappy_).   |
+    +----------------------------+
+
+    "Oh here's a sad catastrophe!"
+      Was Mrs. Blossom's cry--
+    Then--"Water! water! bring to me--
+      Or all my fish will die."
+
+
+
+

+
+D d.
+
+    +-------------------+
+    |    DELIGHTFUL,    |
+    |_easant, Charming_.|
+    +-------------------+
+
+    These boys are bathing in the stream
+      When they should be at school:
+    The master's coming round to see
+      Who disregards his rule.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+E e.
+
+    +----------------------------+
+    |        ECCENTRICITY,       |
+    |_Irregularity, Strangeness_.|
+    +----------------------------+
+
+    We often see things seeming strange;
+      But scarce so strange as this:--
+    Here everything is mis-applied,
+      Here every change amiss.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+F f.
+
+    +---------------------------------+
+    |             FRAUD,              |
+    |_Deceit, Trick, Artifice, Cheat_.|
+    +---------------------------------+
+
+    Here is Pat Murphy, fast asleep.
+      And there is Neddy Bray:
+    The thief a watchful eye doth keep
+      Until he gets away.
+
+

+
+    +------------------------+
+    |         GENIUS,        |
+    |_Mental Power, Faculty_.|
+    +------------------------+
+
+    A little boy with little slate
+      May sometimes make more clear
+    The little thoughts that he would state
+      Than can by words appear.
+
+
+
+
+[Illustration]
+
+H h.
+
+    +----------------+
+    |     HORROR,    |
+    |_Terror, Dread_.|
+    +----------------+
+
+    This little harmless speckled frog
+      Seems Lady Townsend's dread:
+    I fear she'll run away and cry,
+      And hide her silly head.
+
+
+
+

+
+    +----------------------------+
+    |    ICHABOD AT THE JAM.     |
+    |                            |
+    |ICHABOD, _a Christian Name_.|
+    |JAM, _a Conserve of Fruits_.|
+    +----------------------------+
+
+
+    Enough is good, excess is bad:
+      Yet Ichabod you see,
+    Will with the jam his stomach cram,
+      Until they disagree.

+    |         KNOWING,        |
+    |_Conscious, Intelligent_.|
+    +-------------------------+
+
+    Tho' horses know both beans and corn,
+      And snuff them in the wind;
+    They also all know Jemmy Small,
+      And what he holds behind.
+
+
+

+
+    +-----------------------------+
+    |            LUCKY,           |
+    |_Fortunate, Happy by Chance_.|
+    +-----------------------------+
+
+    We must admire, in Lovebook's case.
+      The prompt decision made:
+    As he could not have gained the wood
+      If time had been delayed.
+

+
+    +-----------------------+
+    |         MIMIC,        |
+    |_Imitative, Burlesque_.|
+    +-----------------------+
+
+    The Gentleman, who struts so fine,
+      Unconscious seems to be
+    Of Imitation by the boy
+      Who has the street-door key.
+

+
+
+MORAL TALES.
+
+
+ABLUTION.--Poor little fellow, you are certainly making comical
+faces: I fear the soap has got into your eyes, and that you will
+make that towel very black indeed. All boys, when they wash
+themselves, should take care to rinse off the soap and dirt before
+using the towel. To make the poor little sweep quite clean would
+take much washing. I should like to see the soap and water a little
+cleaner. Many of us have nice wash-stands and baths of marble, but
+this poor little fellow must make the best of what he can get. See
+how cleverly he has put a brick under the broken leg of the stool to
+prop it. I like to see boys clever and ingenious.
+
+
+BARTER.--Miss Lucy Hart was a nice girl, but rather thoughtless,
+little regarding any time but the present--new things in her eyes
+being the prettiest and the best;--thus, she would cast away old
+toys for new ones, as if she were not likely to want them again.
+See, Master George Mc Gregor is bartering for her skipping-rope;
+offering some fruit in exchange for it. The fruit he has picked off
+the tree without permission. I know Lucy's mamma will be vexed; for
+not only will the fruit soon be gone, and the skip-rope wanted
+again, but it was a present from Papa. The plaything cost far more
+than a little fruit, which will be quickly eaten, and possibly make
+Lucy unwell after so much as she has had to-day.
+
+
+CATASTROPHE.--Poor dear lady! has the cat tried to help himself to a
+gold fish, and overturned the handsome glass vase? Naughty Tom!
+greedy puss! I am sure kind Mrs. Blossom always feeds you well; and
+I think you know that you have done wrong, or you would not run so
+fast over the rails into Admiral Seaworth's garden, where he keeps
+his large dog Neptune, who may bark and send you back in a fright.
+
+Poor fish, see how they gasp!--run and fetch some water, or they
+will die. Men drown in water, but fish cannot live out of it. It is
+the nature of cats to catch mice and birds--so that we should keep
+our little favourites out of their reach.
+
+
+DELIGHTFUL.--These boys, I fear, are bathing without their parents'
+consent, which is very wrong, indeed. It is very pleasant in the
+water on a fine day; but little boys should not go there, as it
+might be deep, and they might become cramped in their limbs, and be
+drowned when no one was near, as many naughty boys have been before
+now.
+
+It is proper that boys should learn to swim, when with Papa or some
+kind friend, but not as these boys have. I feel just sure they have
+played the truant--as I see the village school-master, with his
+little dog, coming over the rustic bridge to catch them.
+
+I think that the letter D might, in this case, stand for Disobedient
+as well as Delightful.
+
+
+ECCENTRICITY.--What have we here?--a very odd, comical picture,
+indeed! What a strange fellow, to put his hat upon the fire, and a
+saucepan on his head. I do declare he has his trowsers and waistcoat
+on wrong side before. See, he has taken the poker for a
+walking-stick, put a greasy candle in the book, and the eggs upon
+the floor. Why a small baby-boy would not do this: the poor fellow
+must be out of his right mind. You may laugh at this odd picture for
+it is very ridiculous, and will hurt no one; but good children
+should never make sport of those who are deformed in mind or body,
+for it is not a fault but a misfortune to be so.
+
+
+FRAUD.--Patrick Murphy--commonly called, for shortness, Pat--was a
+very stupid little man; he reared pigs, and had he been sober, would
+have by this time saved a little property; but, no, Pat liked beer
+and strong drink: so that upon market-days he was far less sensible
+than his own jackass--which did know its way home--and for a long
+time took back foolish tipsy Pat safely; until one day, the roads
+being very bad, the cart came to a stop, and Neddy could pull no
+further. A rogue passing, seeing Pat asleep, unloosed the donkey
+from the cart, leaving Pat to awake, and much wonder what could have
+become of Neddy Bray, the donkey.
+
+It was very wrong of the man to take Pat's donkey, although Pat was
+a drunken fellow.
+
+
+GENIUS.--Bravo! my little Artist. I dare say if you try again you
+will improve upon your first attempt. All people should learn to
+draw, that they may be able to describe a form in a very few lines,
+making things intelligible at sight which could not be described in
+any other way. A little knowledge of drawing will lead to a love of
+pictures and delight in the beautiful works of nature. Giotto, a
+great painter, who lived many hundred years ago, was but a poor
+shepherd-boy, who amused himself by drawing portraits of his sheep
+as he tended them on the hills; from rude attempts he rose to be a
+great artist, whose works are treasured by kings and princes. I dare
+say you may some day see some of the works of Giotto, the great
+Italian painter.
+
+
+HORROR.--This drawing represents little Lady Selina Jemima Townsend
+as she appeared when afraid. Afraid--of what? Why, a poor tiny
+reptile, a harmless frog, that had jumped into her hat full of
+daisies, with a croak, as much as to say--"How do you do? Good
+morning, Lady Townsend; I am glad to see you down in the country."
+But what do you think she did? Why, the little lady scampered away
+as fast as she could to her governess, in whose dress she hid her
+face, crying,--saying she had seen "a nasty horrid thing." For this
+her governess reproved her, saying, "God created nothing in vain."
+Frogs are harmless and beautiful when in the water, through which
+they can swim and dive with wonderful ease.
+
+
+ICHABOD AT THE JAM.--Ichabod is an odd name, but such is the name of
+the little boy in the picture. He was much pampered by his parents,
+and never knew when he had had enough. Ichabod would cry for things
+to eat, then cry again because he could eat no more, and after all
+cry, because eating made him feel sick and ill: but that was not
+all; Ichabod was, I am ashamed to say, a thief. He stole the jam
+when his mother thought he was asleep in bed. See, Betty the maid
+has heard a noise, and caught the rogue in the act. To-morrow and
+for many days Ichabod will be ill in bed, and have to take much
+nasty physic. I wish he had _mis_-taken the mustard for honey, and
+burnt his naughty, fibbing tongue.
+
+
+KNOWING.--Ah! ah! Jemmy Small. I fear the steeds are too knowing for
+you to-day. They appear conscious: they would like the beans and
+corn you have in the sieve, but do not like the halter you are
+hiding behind your back. More than one has kicked up his heels, as
+much as to say--"Catch me if you can!" You seem to think, as you
+bite the straw in your mouth, that they may give you a pretty run. I
+know Bob, the pony, will not be soon caught.
+
+Horses and other animals like play much better than work, but good
+boys and girls ought to love both, and not require sweetmeats to
+induce them to do their duty--for they have intellects of a high
+order, and may become clever men and women.
+
+
+LUCKY.--Master Lovebook was indeed lucky in his escape from the
+Bull--and I will tell you how it happened: In going to school, this
+young gentleman had to go round by the wood and across the meadows,
+when one day he observed a savage bull making towards him; alarmed,
+he did not run crying anywhere, but considered one moment, and made
+back the shortest way to the wood, with all speed for the posts,
+just as the savage animal was going to toss him high in the air.
+
+Master Lovebook was unfortunate in meeting the bull, but fortunate
+in having the posts between him and the infuriated animal.
+
+In danger, brave little boys never cry, but think what is the best
+to be done.
+
+
+MIMIC.--To be vain of anything is not right, and to be proud of fine
+clothes very silly indeed. The young gentleman in the picture, I
+think, is vain. See, he is smoking a cigar, and if we may judge by
+the expression of his face, we may presume that he does not fully
+enjoy it. As he struts along the rude boys ridicule him. See the boy
+behind mimicking his airs and graces--using the handle of the
+door-key for an eye-glass. I fear that lad's mirth will soon be
+changed into sorrow--for the jug must be broken against the post,
+and the beer spilled--so that in turn he will be laughed at.
+
+We cannot help smiling at the little coxcomb, although at the same
+time we pity him.
+
+
+NEGLIGENCE.--Here is Tommy Slowboy, the lowest boy in the
+day-school, too idle to learn or even play. See how vacantly he
+stands gaping at the men clearing the snow from the house-tops, with
+his hand in his pocket because he has lost his glove, having placed
+the hot shoulder of mutton down in the cold snow. No wonder the
+first dog passing helps itself to the joint. Tom will not only be
+chid, but have to go without his dinner. Yet, what cares Tom for
+scolding or anything else, he who is so neglectful of duty?
+
+Mind that you strive to learn early, that you may become wise and
+happy hereafter. Look at the picture of Tommy Slowboy, and avoid
+apathy and indolence.
+
+
+OBSTINACY.--Obstinacy is a sad thing. See the naughty Pig in the
+picture, how he pulls in the opposite direction. Master Pig will be
+obliged to go into the sty, and very likely get the whip for his
+pains; like a wayward child that gets chid for disobedience. I hope
+there are very few disobedient young ladies and gentlemen, like the
+perverse pig. The pig is a stupid animal: but I have heard of a
+learned pig that could tell his letters, pointing to them with his
+snout; but most swine are dirty in their ways, and not at all
+particular--little caring so long as they can eat, grunt, and sleep.
+The pig will often lie in the dirtiest corner of his house, and
+stand in its trough of food.
+
+
+PETS.--Here is a portrait of Aunt Gray feeding her Pets, or
+rather stuffing the poor monkey. Some people say Miss Gray is
+kind to animals, but I do not think so, for she keeps her pets
+prisoners--feeding them too much, and all for her own pleasure,
+until they become like spoilt children, peevish, and always wanting
+sweet things. Kind children love animals, and delight to see them
+free. In the Zoological Gardens animals are not pets; they have
+there plenty of room, and are nicely kept for our instruction. See,
+poor Jacko, the monkey, has grown too fat to leap, as in his native
+woods he used, from bough to bough. The poor gold fish have hardly
+room to turn in their glass prison: how they would enjoy a swim in
+the garden pond!
+
+
+QUANDARY.--Poor Dame Partlet having got into the back yard cannot
+get out again. She is in a Quandary, for she fears the dogs will
+bite her--though their chains are not long enough. Keeper, the
+mastiff, is a noble fellow, and would not hurt women or children;
+neither would Nero, the bull-dog; he would rather face a lion or a
+wild ox: whilst Snap, the terrier, barks and snarls in the company
+of his brave companions.
+
+Little boys and girls should not touch strange dogs, for they
+sometimes snap at those who are not familiar to them. To take food
+from dogs is not prudent, for they growl, bite, and are
+ill-tempered, like a little fellow would be if deprived of his
+dinner, after he had tasted the first morsel.
+
+
+RIVALRY.--To compete for good is famous--such as little boys
+rivalling one another in a race up the Ladder of Learning--that is
+exercise of the mind. Here we have a picture of country boys
+exercising their strength--climbing up a pole covered with grease,
+for a prize of food for the body. The boy that wins the leg of
+mutton will be the hero of the fair, and be carried round the place
+on the shoulders of the men. See how they strive and tear to win the
+prize. I should not wonder if they all slipped down together,
+notwithstanding the encouraging cheers of the crowd. See how the man
+on the housetop swings his hat in the air, and the people applaud. A
+few inches higher, and the prize is won.
+
+
+SLUGGARD.--Heavy-headed, sleepy Ned, awake, arise! You lazy fellow!
+Look at the clock! Eight hours' rest is enough for any little
+boy--and here you have taken nearly fourteen. All Sluggards should
+get their slates, and calculate how much time they waste every
+year--weeks that can never be regained. If you only lie in bed two
+hours later than you should every day, you lose more than one day in
+a week, or sixty-four days in the course of the year: which, at the
+end of seventy years, would be awful indeed! Twelve whole years
+lost! Lazy, idle people, never seem to have time for anything:
+industrious ones, time for anything and everything. I hope when
+little Ned sees his portrait he will be shocked with his appearance,
+and reform his ways.
+
+
+TOPSY-TURVY.--Well, of all the funny pictures in this droll book I
+think this the drollest--a big letter T resting on its top on the
+ceiling, like in an overturned doll's house, or a view taken by an
+artist standing upon his head. Turn it over, and see how comical it
+looks--everything appears to have lost its gravity.
+
+_Gravity_ means the power that holds us to the earth (as Papa's
+loadstone attracts the needle): if it were not for gravity, we could
+not move about. Some day you shall read in that nice book called the
+"Evenings at Home," about gravity, and why an apple falls to the
+ground. A great philosopher, Sir Isaac Newton, discovered why, as he
+lay under a tree. At a future time you will learn about gravity and
+many other things.
+
+
+UNCOMMON VEGETATION.--Uncle Periwinkle was very kind; he loved
+nature and his nephews dearly. He wore green spectacles, a
+dressing-gown all covered with leaves, and a large straw hat; in
+fact he was very fond of gardening, and reared all kinds of odd
+plants--this his nephews knew, and determined to play a joke upon
+him--not a cruel, heartless joke, that would hurt or destroy
+anything: no! they were too kind for that. They only carefully tied
+the carpenter's planes upon the plane-tree, as if it were fruit--and
+some little boxes of all colours upon the box-tree, like blossom; so
+that when the old gentleman beheld it, he exclaimed--"Uncommon
+Vegetation!" upon which John and Walter came laughing out of the
+greenhouse to receive a bunch of fine grapes for their pleasant
+joke.
+
+
+WONDER.--So, Master Ploughboy Giles, you are spending your penny and
+your holiday at the fair. You seem not a little astonished at what
+you have seen in that peep-show. Surely you cannot imagine that they
+are real; it is the magnifying power of the glasses that makes the
+pictures appear so large. The pyramids of Egypt are the largest
+stone buildings in the world, and the oldest; the Behemoth, a huge
+animal that existed thousands of years ago (but I do not think it
+had wings like a butterfly, as in the showman's picture); Daniel
+Lambert was an enormously fat man, who died a long time back. All
+these things must be in miniature if they are to be seen in that
+small box, very little larger than a dog's house.
+
+
+XANTIPPE.--The comical event pictured here occurred more than
+two thousand years ago: Xantippe, the wife of the great and
+good philosopher Socrates, continually tormented him with her
+ill-humour--using him very cruelly--one day emptying a vessel
+of dirty water over her celebrated husband, whom she ought to
+have loved: he only remarked, that "after thunder there generally
+falls rain." Socrates lived in the refined city of Athens; he was
+one of the most eminent philosophers of Greece; he was very plain
+in person, as you perceive by the picture: but a man may be great
+and good, yet ugly, as Socrates was. The philosopher had enemies
+who sought his destruction; he was killed with poison. After his
+death his accusers were despised, as you will read in ancient
+history some day.
+
+
+YEARN.--What have we here? Little Miss Cross vexed, just because she
+cannot get at the grapes. I am sure I should not like to have my
+portrait drawn with such a sullen face. She has been trying to take
+fruit without her aunt's permission, that very likely is unripe and
+improper for her. The walk in a delightful garden ought not to make
+her long to eat all the fruit she sets eyes upon, or wish to pick
+the sweet flowers, that last much longer upon the plants than when
+plucked. I perceive that the peevish young lady in the picture has
+been picking the flowers. See, they are strewn upon the seat beside
+her, under those dirty feet that have trodden down the beds of
+mould. I am afraid Miss Cross cannot be a joyous, happy child,
+because disobedient.
+
+
+ZANY.--Finis is the Latin word for finish, and here it is the last
+droll picture--a Zany laughing at his portrait in this comical book,
+which he seems vastly to enjoy. What a droll fellow, to read with
+his head where his heels should be, like the clown in the pantomime.
+Look at his staff, the cock and bells, with which he dances, making
+a jingling noise. A Zany is not an idiot, but often a funny clever
+fellow, paid to make people laugh. We all like a good laugh
+sometimes. Many years ago kings used to keep jesters to amuse the
+company; King Henry the Eighth had a clever jester, called Will
+Somers, whose portrait was painted by a great artist named Holbein,
+which is now in the palace at Hampton Court, and may be seen by
+those who love pictures.

+
+    Messrs. WARD and LOCK have much pleasure in announcing
+    that they have just purchased the Copyrights of many of
+    the Valuable ILLUSTRATED EDUCATIONAL WORKS lately
+    published from the office of the _Illustrated London News_.
+    The New Editions of these Popular Books have been most
+    carefully revised, and in their present state arrive as
+    near perfection as possible. It is the intention of the
+    present proprietors of these Educational Books to continue
+    the Series, and they have already made arrangements to
+    this effect.
+
+    The object of the Publishers is to supply a Series of
+    Illustrated Volumes, adapted both for Schools and Private
+    Study, which shall be accurate and complete text-books,
+    _and at a price within the reach of every one_.
+
+    The old system of instruction, by which the names of things
+    only were presented to the mind of the pupil, has been long
+    admitted to have been imperfect and unsuccessful. With the
+    young it is necessary to speak to the Eye, as well as to
+    the Mind--to give a picture of an object as well as a
+    description; and the adoption of such a plan of tuition is
+    not only far more effective than that which is confined to
+    words, but is at the same time much less irksome to the
+    teacher, and more pleasant to the pupil. A greater interest
+    is excited, and the representation of the object remains
+    clear and distinct in the mind of the child long after the
+    verbal description has passed away.

+
+    *.* The "ILLUSTRATED WEBSTER SPELLING BOOK" has been most
+    carefully compiled by an Eminent English Scholar, who is
+    daily engaged in the tuition of youth, and, therefore, knows
+    exactly what is really useful in a Spelling Book. The
+    Reading Lessons are arranged upon a new progressive
+    principle, exceedingly simple, and well adapted for the
+    purpose. The Accented Type has been adopted, so as to ensure
+    correct pronunciation. The old system of mis-spelling words
+    is dangerous in the extreme, and, therefore, very justly,
+    has now fallen into disuse. In a word, the "ILLUSTRATED
+    WEBSTER SPELLING BOOK," whether considered in respect to its
+    Typography, Binding, or Beauty of its Illustrations, must
+    take the highest position as a School-Book, entirely setting
+    aside the old-fashioned, and, in most instances,
+    unintelligible--so called--helps to learning.

+    *.* The Public will do well to be on their guard against

+    of pronunciation by accents. The old system of pronunciation
+    by mis-spelling words has become obsolete, and Dr. Webster's

+
+    The extraordinary success attendant upon the publication of
+    the Half-crown Edition of WEBSTER'S POCKET PRONOUNCING
+    DICTIONARY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE,--in the face of a most
+    obstinate and inveterate opposition on the part of the
+    proprietors of the out-of-date and worthless compilations,
+    so called Dictionaries, printed from old stereotype plates,
+    which have remained unaltered for years,--has induced
+    Messrs. WARD and LOCK to issue a CHEAPER EDITION FOR THE
+    MILLION, price only =ONE SHILLING AND SIXPENCE!!!=
+
+    *.* The New Edition at =1s. 6d.= will, of course, be printed
+    on thinner paper, but still the type will appear perfectly
+    distinct. It is almost unnecessary to state, that only an
+    enormous sale can reimburse the Publishers in issuing an
+    edition at so low a price as =1s. 6d.=; still, Messrs. WARD
+    and LOCK feel assured that their good intentions will be
+    appreciated by an extensive and continually increasing sale.
+    "WEBSTER" is now the only reliable authority on the English
+    Language, and it is only right that every Englishman,
+    however humble his sphere, should be able to purchase the
+    best English Dictionary. Whilst the Cheaper Edition, at
+    =1s. 6d.=, is well adapted for National and British Schools,
+    the Half-Crown Edition, on superior paper, and bound in
+    cloth, gilt lettered, will be always in demand for Schools
+    of a higher grade.

+
+    "We could point to a work selling for twelve shillings not

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE

+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO

+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.

+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at

+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
