A Complete Course for Public & Private Schools - The Normal Course in Spelling [Larkin Duton.LL.D.]

The aim of the authors was to make a spelling book for teaching pupils to spell. It is believed that the proper study of the lessons in this book will, in the shortest time, develop in the student the ability to spell the words which he will afterwards need to write. The lessons for the most part, contain only words in common use. A the same time the matter for the lessons has been so selected, classified and arranged as to afford the pupil all the incidental advantages of definition and use in sentences consistent with the main purpose of the work.
