This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Daniel Adams was born on September 29, 1773 in Townsend, Massachussets, United States, the son of Daniel and Lydia Taylor Adams. His father was deacon in the church and a justice of the peace.
Adams graduated from Dartmouth College in 1797, studied medicine under Dr. Nathan Smith of the Dartmouth Medical School, and is recorded as having received the degree of Bachelor of Medicine in 1799, and that of Doctor in 1822.
Adams began practicing in Leominster, Massachussets. Here at the memorial service for Washington, held February 22, 1800, he delivered the eulogy, which the town ordered printed and "served to every legal voter. "
Together with Salmon Wilder he began publishing a weekly newspaper, called the Telescope, the first issue of which appeared January 2, 1800. For want of sufficient encouragement it was discontinued, October 14, 1802.
In the meantime he had become impressed by the lack of adequate text-books in the schools. The commonly used arithmetic, for example, was difficult and expensive. Accordingly, in 1801, Adams published The Scholar's Arithmetic, comparatively simple and reasonable in price. For many years it was used throughout New England.
He also published not later than 1803, for a third edition with a preface of that date was issued in November 1805, The Understanding Reader or Knowledge before Oratory. This also had wide use.
About 1805 he removed to Boston, where he taught a private school, and for a time edited the Medical and Agricultural Register, a monthly periodical designed to give "practical information in husbandry, cautions and directions for the preservation of health, management of the sick, etc. "
His own health becoming somewhat impaired, Adams removed in 1813 to Mont Vernon, New Hampshire, and resumed the practice of medicine. Soon he was one of the most prominent consulting physicians in that part of the state.
His interest in schools and civic affairs continued, however, and it is said of him that he "wielded a controlling influence in behalf of temperance, education, and morality. "
In 1846 he removed to Keene, New Hampshire, where he died.
Besides the text-books mentioned, he published: Geography, or a Description of the World, The Thorough Scholar, and other works.
