, A BOOK THAT ALL SHOULD BEAD . FAMILIAR THINGS . A MISCELLANY OF USEFUL AND ENTERTAINIMG KNOWLEDGE , EMBELLISHED WITH NUMEROUS WOOD ENGRAVINGS . 32 Pages , foolscap , 8 vo ., price 2 d . Monthly . There is nothing , however trifling- or insignificant it may appear , but contains within itself or its history—when we take the trouble to search it out—much that is interesting , useful , and instructive . The familiar objects by which we are surrounded , no matter how well known and common they may be accounted , have all connected with them many interesting facts , with which few are acquainted . How little do we regard the things which daily minister to our comforts , yet how curious are the processes through which they must pass , before they are fit for our use or amusement ; those who have been in the manufacturing districts must be fuHy alive to the vast amount of profitable knowledge which lies hid ' under the simple exterior of our household objects . . . The aim and purpose of this work is to convey , in an interesting and popular form , so much of the Natural History , Chemistry , and Commercial Value of familiar things , interspersed with light and pleasing anecdotes and incidents of interest , as shall give its readers a proper idea of the value aud importance of the -thing's which they meet with in every-day life , the care , fatigue , and perhaps danger , with which they are produced , and not to be contented with an imperfect knowledge of themselves , and the things with which they are surrounded . WHAT HAS BEEN SAID OF THE WORK BY THE PRESS . The Court Journal says , " Itis an excellent title , and admirably The Cambridge Chronicle remarks that " this highly interesting maintained .
