ELEMENTARY FRENGH READER.

A coUeetUm of interesting and instructive short storiês,

adapted for tue in Middle Class SchooU, with a

complète French-IhigUsh Vocabulary.

At the request of seyeral leading members of the Scholastio Profession, I baye undertaken to compile an Elementary French Beader, snitable, on account of its price and contents, to Middle Olass and other Schools. The matter oontained in this book will afiford ample scope for the teac^er to exercise bis pupils in conyersation and elementarj translation, whUe the bold type chosen will make it more pleasant to read.

The Yocabnlary giyes eyeiy word in the tezt, the plural of nonns and adjectiyes (when formed otherwise than by the addition of s), and the féminine of a]l adjectiyes, thns ayoiding the need of a dictionary. For pnrposes of référence, I baye added a list of regolar and irregular yerbs.

I trust this little yolume will answer the purpose I had in Tsew when oompiling it, and meet with the approbation d

96 9af«s. Oloiiit VtIjo% ao.
