DEAR MB. BIGITLOW, I sent for your "Punctuation and other 

 Typographical Matters " (having long groaned over bad pointing in 

 authors and printers), and was glad to find an excellent manual 

 which will contribute to the comfort of many. I cordially recom- 

 mend it to all authors, printers, and men of letters. 



Faithfully yours, 

 Allibone's Dictionary of Authors. I. AUSTIN ALLIBONE.

 enlarges the reading public's obi; Cations to him." Atlantic Monthly. 



"It is intended for the use of authors and teachers, while business 

 men who have occasion to print circulars, advertisements, etc., cau 

 hardly afford to be without a copy of it for reference." Schenectady

" This is an admirable little work; the more admirable for the use 

 of busy people, because it is little, s^nce it is also clear and Compre- 

 hensive. The errors pointed out are those to which nearly all wr:t:-rs 

 are liable. . . . We commend it as the most convenient, little manual 

 of which we have knowledge." Christian Herald. 



" This is a valuable little volume. It is not a grammar, with rules 

 and definitions ; but it takes up-words and parts of speech, and shows, 

 generally by example, their correct use. It is arranged systemati- 

 cally, and is adapted to the use of the home and the school." Th 

 Current. 



" The matter is well arranged, and the points upon which instruc 

 tion is desired can be readily found." Christian Union. 



" This is a useful book. A careful study of the several chapter* 

 *vxmld be of great advantage to all who have to do much or littr 

 !peak ir z w writing. " Gospel Banner.
