THE SMITH-AND-DOLIER ARITHMETICAL SCALES. This important invention is calculated to save nearly all the time now wasted in setting and correcting sums in the four first rules, and to enable pupils, by means of short lessons, to acquire an extraordinary ease and rapidity of calculation. The scales are in four sets (one for each rule, namely, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division), so as to serve for one, two, three, or four pupils at a time. Two neighbouring families frequently unite in purchasing them. They will endure for the use of many successive families or schools; and one series is sufficient for a school, as they may be used by the pupils in rotation. Price of the whole, complete in four mahogany boxes, £1 10s.
