Excerpt from Outlines of English History With Memory Formulas: Dates Permanently Fixed in the Mind Without the Use of Figures

To the superficial and unthinking, any departure from the way to which they have long been accustomed seems arbitrary and objectionable. It is' only the power of habit, however, that blinds them to the fact that the way they have always used is decidedly arbitrary and mechanical; and that a method which dispenses with figures has something of the advantages of wireless tele graphy, that transmits messages without the use of poles and wires.

Ten minutes' wide-awake attention is sufficient to master the Figure Alphabet. And the student's progress then becomes easy and rapid. His after-work is almost of the nature of a recreation or pastime. He is soon sur prised, however, to find the amount of useful knowledge into which he has been playing his way.
