Standard of the U. S. Supreme Court, of all the State Supreme Courts, of the U. S. Government Printing Office, and of nearly all the Schoolbooks. Warmly com- mended by State Superintendents of Schools and other Educators almost without number.


Journal of Education, Boston, says: This edition of Webster's Dictionary, the International, is simply exquisite. The type is clear, and the arrangement of the different types gives fine effect; the pronunciation is modern and standard; the ety- mology is tersely, clearly put; the definitions are modernized, condensed, and complete; the illustrations are for uise rather than for show, but are still artistic.
