"I would advise =Sunday-school teachers= to use, in connection with the
lessons of 1897, =Klemm's Relief Map of the Roman Empire=. Every scholar
who can draw should have a copy of it. Being blank, it can be beautifully
colored: waters, blue; mountains, brown; valleys, green; deserts, yellow;
cities marked with pin-holes; and the journeys of Paul can be traced upon
it."--MRS. WILBUR F. CRAFTS, _President International Union of
Primary Sabbath-School Teachers of the United States_.

=DESCRIPTION OF THE MAPS.=
These maps are made in two forms, both with beautifully executed relief
(embossed)--the cheaper ones of plain stiff paper similar to drawing paper
(these are to be substituted for and used as outline map blanks), the
others covered with a durable waterproof surface, that can be quickly
cleaned with a damp sponge, adapted to receive a succession of markings
and cleansings. Oceans, lakes, and rivers, as well as land, appear in the
same color, white, so as to facilitate the use of the map as a
=_geographical slate_=.

EXTRA EYES
* * * * *
Have you ever seen the beautiful colors in a fly's wing? or the hole
through a hair, or the little seed babies in the different seeds? Probably
not unless you have some extra eyes to see them with. We call these EXTRA
EYES, MICROSCOPES, Microscope is a name made from two Greek words, MICROS,
"small," and SKOPEIN, "to view," and is an instrument to look at small
things.
A very nice one is shown in the following picture; it has glass plates to
put these small things on, a mirror to reflect the light under them, and
all of the little instruments necessary. The price is $2.00, and this
covers the entire cost of a nice strong box with a place for each part,
which will be sent to any address for this price.
