The Chinese Minister at
a banquet In New York
said, "This great nation
drinks too little tea," and
ascribed as a reason "THE
INFERIOR QUALITY OF
THE TEA lnPORTED."
The China tea importer
will not change his ways
any more than. will the
Chinese producer.
The reason why con
sumption of Ceylon and
India tea has increased so
phenomenally is because
of THE SUPERIOR QUAL
ITY OF THE TEA IH
PORTED, and because it
is manufactured on latest
scientific principles.

THIRD! 0ur textbooks are written by men strong
both in theory and practice. Tiw authors of
textbooks intended for use in colleges and universities have thorough scientific
training, indeed, but Ihey have little or none of the knowledge that can be gained
only by doing by experience. They do not know, and, therefore, omit to mentlo
in tneir b.ioks the way in which innumerable scientific facts may be applied in
simple operations of the trades or professions. These applications of science are
familiar onlv to the exnsrt both in theorv and practice, and onlv such men are em-
,-e laugiu me mwr, 01 ra fluyeJ as EJitors anJ ,structors b. tne Aanagement of these Schools.
Mechanical and Architectural T ,
FOURTH: Tne men inai mae our textbooks su-
' pervise the instruction of our students.
No one can teach the contents of a book so well as the man that wrote the book;
he knows better than any one else what is in the book, why It is there, and its
importance with reference to the other parts of the entire subject.
OU CANNOT successfully educate yourself through the mails by
enrolling with one of our Imitators. You are certain to lose the
money you pay for tuition, because their methods of instruction are
illogical, and the results without value to any one desiring educa
tion for its practical use.
Our system of Correspondence Instruction in the Industrial
Sciences was originated in The International Correspondence Schools, of Scranton,
Pa., in October. i8ot. Since that time, we have taught the Theory of the
Engineering Trades and Professions, as well as
Drawing, to thousands of industrial workers, and have qualified them for respon
sible positions. Our rolls contain the names of students in every part of the civil
ized world.
That a method or an invention should thus extend aroun J the globe, and rapidly
grow in favor with the lapse of time, is proof positive of intrinsic value.
These great results have been achieved by original methods of teaching
methods especially adapted to the end In view. Our Instruction and Question
Papers and our Drawing Plates differ widely from school and college textbooks,
and cost us over Suo.ooo to prepare and our imitators are compelled to employ a
cheaper but an utterly Impracticable method that of using textbooks of colleges " I ney are frequently revised.

and the universities.
If the industrial classes could learn drawing and the mathematical and physi
cal sciences from ordinary textbooks, there would have been no field for The
International Correspondence Schools, and our grand army of :6o,coo students
could never have been assembled. ,
Our instruction and Question Papers, and Drawing Plates, differ from the
textbooks used by students in the regular schools in the following important
respects:

d at the pleasure Of those that use thpm. In nr.W to rrrft wh.if
is wrong, Improve what is faulty, smooth away difficulty, and insert what is of
use them

later discovery, changes must be made very frequently.
Our Irwtrn.-tlon Pancr
belong to us ; and in our Editorial Department, they are in constant comparison
with what Is latest and best; faults, omissions, and crudities of evervkmJ are
therefore remedied without delay. In the case of textbooks on Applied Physical
Science, the need of revision occurs with special frequency. Take Electrical books,
for example; many works on this subject printed five years ago are now nearly
worthless, for the reason that they are out of date.

Its abstractions are always difficult. Our textbooks contain only the facts,
principles, ana processes arsoiuteiy required by tne student in his trade or pro
fession. These are usually easy to learn and to applv. The workingman has not
the time to study all the matter contained in the school and college textbooks,
neither does his work require him to be strong in abstiact theory. In the prepar
ation of our Instruction Papers, neither time nor expense is spared to secure the
greatest possible, simplicity and ease of application. We do not occupy the time
of our students'm the study of the derivation of rules and formulas; we teach
T them how to apply rules and formulas.

expense both in time and money. They have been copyrighted because they era
body a method of Instruction entirely new one that has been extraordinarily pro
ductive of practical results.
Our students in drawing make as rapid progress in, learning and become as
proficient as the students of the regular schools and colleges. The principles un
derlying our system of teaching drawing are entirely different from those in the
systems employed in the regular schools, colleges, and universities, and there is
no other system by which drawing Is taught as successfully through the mails.
Any system of education Tor people with limited time.to devote to study by
the correspondence method that relies on the use of school and coMli txthnnk
will end in failure; the student thnt pays his money for such tuition will get no re-
knowledge and arc learning to apply it.
If you want to educate yourself in the theory of your trade or profession, if
you want to become a draftsman or to add to your eirnin? capacity the strength
that COMES FROM THE UNION OF SCIENCE WITH PRACTICE, we can help
you.
