compact and useful little
manual, full of the wisest and most practical suggestions in regard to
the mechanical requirements for the proper preparation of manuscript;
the right use of doubtful and frequently misused words; punctuation;
matters of style; and errors of arrangement." The _Critic_ says: "It is
full of sound advice and practical suggestions."
