elementary studies, a choice collection of Polkas, Waltzes, Solos,
Schottisches, Songs, Hornpipes, Jigs, Reels, etc., with full
explanations of both the “Banjo” and “Guitar” styles of execution,
and designed to impart a complete knowledge of the art of playing the
Banjo practically, without the aid of a teacher. This work is arranged
on the progressive system, showing the learner how to play the first
few notes of a tune, then the next notes, and so on, a small portion
at a time, until he has mastered the entire piece, every detail
being as clearly and thoroughly explained as if he had a teacher at
his elbow all the time. By Frank B. Converse, author of the “Banjo

Ned Donnelly’s Art of Boxing. A thorough Manual of Sparring and
Self-Defence, illustrated with Forty Engravings, showing the various
Blows, Stops and Guards; by Ned Donnelly, Professor of Boxing to the
London Athletic Club, etc., etc. This work explains in detail every
movement of attack and defence in the clearest language, and in
accordance with the most approved and modern methods; the engravings
are very distinctly drawn, and show each position and motion as
plainly as the personal instruction of a professor could convey it. It
teaches all the feints and dodges practised by experienced boxers, and
gives advice to those who desire to perfect themselves in the Manly
Art. 121 pages.

Sut Lovingood. Yarns spun by “A Nat’ral Born Durn’d Fool.” Warped
and Wove for Public Wear, by George W. Harris. Illustrated with
eight fine full page engravings, from designs by Howard. It would be
difficult, we think, to cram a larger amount of pungent humor into 300
pages than will be found in this really funny book. The Preface and
Dedication are models of sly simplicity, and the 24 Sketches which
follow are among the best specimens of broad burlesque to which the
genius of the ludicrous, for which the Southwest is so distinguished,
has yet given birth.
12mo., tinted paper, cloth, gilt edges $1.50
