***In order to render the most valuable portions of the ESLIE'S SHORT and EASY METHOD

Series of Select Christian Authors more accessible to those who may not be able to purchase the larger and more expensive Editions, and to promote their more extensive circulation among all classes of society, the Publisher has

resolved to print a number of the more popular and useful Works in the Series in a very cheap form. A number of

other Works will also be introduced into this Cheap Series

which have not yet appeared in the former. And though published in a very cheap form, they will at the same time be beautifully printed in 8vo. on a clear and distinct type, and on fine paper; and they will be complete and entire reprints of the Editions in the former Series. These reprints will form the Cheapest Editions of the Works of our more eminent Christian Authors which have yet been presented to the Public.

"It has been suggested to the authors of this publication, that the study of the French Genders might be made more easy of attainment, by printing elementary works, for the use of the early scholar, in two colours, making the red to designate the feminine, and the blue the masculine. It was argued that Mnemonics would be more assisted by the aid of colour, and that the intimate connexion existing between vision, memory, and recollection, might derive great assistance from such a method."
