A lirgo book is often an unhandy thing to have about one’s person, and it is espscially ill- suited to the needs of mugwumns, most of whon weak in the legs and in other ways poorly adapted to carrying freight. It goes without saving that this book will be the constant compan- ion of every man who dosires to e well informed.
