 i in. thick, that it may be easily carried in the waistcoat pocket. 



" It is certainly an extremely rare thing for a reviewer to be called upon to notice a volume 

 measuring but 23 in. by if in., yet these dimensions faithfully represent the size of the handy 

 little book before us. The volume which contains 118 printed pages, besides a few blank 

 pages for memoranda is, in fact, a true pocket-book, adapted for being carried in the waist- 

 coat pocket, and containing a far greater amount and variety of information than most people 



would imagine could be compressed into so small a space The little volume has been 



compiled with considerable care and judgment, and we can cordially recommend it to our 

 readers as a useful little pocket companion." Engineering.
