PARSON'S HAND-BOOK

BUSINESS AND SOCIAL FORMS.

A COMPLETE WORK OF REFERENCE AND SELF-INSTRUCTION.

OUR NEW EDITION,

Just coming from the printer and binder, has been enlarged to over 700 LARGE OCTAVO PAGES, and has the addition of two new departments, one on Short-Hand and Type Writing, and one on choice Poetical Selections; fully and handsomely illustrated. Notwithstanding the expensive improvements, the price of the book remains the same; and we assert, without fear of contradiction, that we give the most book for the money of any house publishing any book of a similar nature in America. And, further, PARSON'S HAND-BOOK stands as the peer of its class, notwithstanding the higher price at which others may be sold. This is evidenced by the fact that our agents are constantly urged to take these other works in part payment for the HAND-BOOK, even though they had paid for them nearly double what we ask for ours.
