ADVERTISEMENT TO THE THIRTY-SEVENTH EDITION.

"ENQUIRE WITHIN" is deeply indebted for past favours, and anxious to obtain the cordial and warm recommendation of its friends in all parts of the World. Cheapness and varied usefulness are its prominent characteristics. Within the space of a few years no less a number than THREE HUNDRED AND NINETY THOUSAND COPIES HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED.

This Edition has been brought out with the intention of its being still more worthy of success. No really useful part has been omitted. The Classification has been improved, in accordance with many friendly suggestions, and Additions have been made, both modern and interesting.

Banting and Diet, the favourite game of Croquêt, Decalcomanie and Diaphanie, &c., have been added; as well as an entire Chapter for the use of Ladies, containing Instructions in Crochet, Tatting, Netting, Knitting, &c., with illustrative patterns under the title of " ENQUIRE WITHIN UPON FANCY NEEDLEWORK."* Enquirers on the laws of Landlord and Tenant, Husband and Wife, Debtor and Creditor, are supplied with latest information. Diseases and their Remedies, and Medicines, their Uses and Doses, have received special attention. In addition to a very carefully arranged Index, a new Summary of Contents has been supplied, and no labour or expense has been spared, with the hope that every Reader may receive complete and satisfactory replies from

ENQUIRE WITHIN UPON EVERYTHING.
