these human slips take root, spring up and

green-housc adapted to the development of
tho activities and faculties Of tho human
mind in all it's originality; it is child's gar,

in perfect harmony.
Tho Kindergarten brings children together
at on age when tho mental faculties first begin
to develop, and surrounds them with infucns
ccs and objects calculated to awaken inquiry,
and to fostcr love for tho boautifnl it fills
the mind with pcasnnt images and awakcus
observation, perception and originality.
The powers of the child are developed
symmctricully. naturally, and progressively.
While the reason and understanding sleep,
the sensitive perceptions arc storing the
mind and receiving impressions from external
objects
BY tho varied and beautiful material used
in the Kindergarten. tho child is led forth
into tho great world of color and form,
planned by tho Divine friend. and is taught
to select, compurc aud arrange according to
tho types used aud made familiar with tho
system. Froebel first introduces color, then
| form from tho six types which tho eyo
gazcs and never tires. From form we take
them to paper foldings weaving, ring laying
and incrlacing in endless designs. There is
not u motion Of those colored balls, not n
position of tho rings, nor an arrangement Of
tho blocks made without reference to some
mathematical OF artistic law. In ull Of these
things the Kindergarten pcrccives tho natu :
raj bent Of the child's mind.
Then to sum the whole it induces physical
development, manual skill, clcar thinking,
attention, concentration, thnughtfulness, aud
cagerncss for knowledge. 1t is play school

From all parts of tho country reports come Of
the immense sales and increasing demand for
that dcscrvingly popular Sowing Machine, The
Old and Reliable "STANDARD," the price of
which the proprietors wisely reduced TO $50, in
clading all tho attachments, and at once secured
for them popularity among the people fa" be-
yond that ever yet attained BY any other ma
chino at any price; the consequence Of which
is. agents arc leaving the old high priced ma
chimes, and seeking territory for the "STAND-
ARD" knowing from experience that with the
best goods at the lowest price they Can ouscl all
other machines, where the superior quality and
low price is made known. This splendid ma
chine combines all the improvements. 1t is far
ahead Of all others in beauty and durability Of
its work, ease Of management, light running
and certainty Of operation, is sensibly mado
upon sound principles, with positive working
