The following lectures were really given; in substance; at a girls school (far in the country); which; in the course of various experiments on the possibility of introducing some better practice of drawing into the modern scheme of female education; I visited frequently enough to enable the children to regard me as a friend. The Lectures always fell more or less into the form of fragmentary answers to questions; and they are allowed to retain that form; as; on the whole; likely to be more interesting than the symmetries of a continuous treatise. Many children (for the school was large) took part; at different times; in the conversations; but I have endeavored; without confusedly multiplying the number of imaginary speakers; to represent; as far as I could; the general tone of comment and inquiry among young people.
