BARNES' NEW SCHOOL BOOK TYPE. HIGHEST EXPERT ENDORSEMENTS. "I congratulate you upon the result of the printer's art as shown in your recently published New National Readers' and History of the United States.' 66 The fact that irreparable damage is done to the eyes of young children by badly printed primary school books, makes your work in the books alluded to above, a genuine public benefaction. I do not see how any damage can possibly result in the proper use of such books, the typographical parts of which are so well adapted to the healthful exercise of the organ of vision. 'Trusting that educators may be led to see the value of your books, and to lessen the evil effects of abuse of the eyes of the young." I am, dear Sir, New York, Jan. 5, 1886. C. R. AGNEW, M.D. The increase of disease to the eyes of students is one of the most significant phenomena of modern civilization; it has influenced the Germans to adopt the Roman type in place of the o.d German, and has aroused the attention of the medical profession. Some improvement in the printing of school books is beginning to be noticed, but nothing we have seen can compare in general adaptability to the wants of the eyes of scholars with the typography and clearness of illustration of the NEW NATIONAL SERIES OF READERS, and the BRIEF HISTORY OF THE U. S.. published by A. S. BARNES & Co. "Such praiseworthy endeavors to comply with the demands of science and to preserve the eyes of our children deserves the hearty endorsement of every philanthropist." TIMOTHY F. ALLEN, A.M., M.D., LL.D., New York, Dec. 16, 1885. Senior Surgeon to the N. Y. Ophthalmic Hospital. ESTES & LAURIAT'S PUBLICATIONS FOR 1885. ZIGZAG JOURNEYS IN THE LEVANT. By H.
