Oblong 8vo, [20]pp. Very Good+ with a small rectangle cut from the bottom corner of the front wrap (revealing "lose hope"), sunning to outer pages. Handsome illustrations on the inner wrap. Four pages have exercises completed by Cora J. Eaker (signed on cover); then, a pencil outline of a star, one page used as scratch, and the remaining 14 unmarked. Crisp example of an uncommon series; 1 copy in OCLC (Scranton). Specimen phrases include: Avoid the reproaches of your own heart. Hate nothing but evil. Quackery is the pretense of a charlatan. Years less than deeds measure our existence.
