 Dear Mr, Bigklow, — I sent for your "Punctuation and other 

 Typographical Matters " (having long groaned ever 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, 

 AMbone's Dictionary of Authors. I. Austin Allibone. 



" Mr. Bigelow's book is a practical treatment of the subject, and 

 enlarges the reading public's obligations 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., can 

 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, since it is also clear and compre- 

 hensive. The errors pointed out are those to which nearly all writers 

 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." — The 

 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 chapters 

 would be of great advantage to all who have to do much or 15**te 

 peak'^sj or writing. " — Gospel Banner.
