Perhaps your is an earlier edition?
Mine is the 1931 Revised Edition. Noble and Noble, New York.
From the preface to the new edition:
... It has passed through several editions, but up to the present time no vital
revision has been made. This new edition is presented with a clear realization
of the fundamental change that has come over the spirit and methods of
instruction in formal grammar. ...
