The Johnson Readers.
Revised by E. c. Branson.

The question to ask of a series of Read
ors is not whether it is graded in the
best manner, but whether it contains the
best literature graded in the best man
ner.
The Johnson Readers contain the best
literature They were born of a desire to
provide school children with the highest
type of books. There isn't trashy lesson
in these Readers. There isn't a line to
awaken a vile appetite. There isn't
hint of the impure or vicious. There is
mo belittling of anything that is noble.
There is nothing sacrilegious or untruth-
taful in them. There is no pretty writing
of doubtful tendencies. There's nothing
but the best in them.
And they are not sectional.
They are the first and only Readers in
which Southern authors have received
fitting recognition but Southern authors
have not been magniied at the expense
zof the authors of other sections.
The Johnson Readers are- perfectly
graded. There are no bitches to jump.
There are no lessons too hard" followed
by lessons too easy" Lessons of the
same grade are not piled one on the other
to call halt. Nowhere is the pupil re-
CURED to break step.
