The Complete Letter Writer FOR LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.
This is the first time that a book has been published that plainly teaches
=how to write a letter=. It shows clearly all the blunders and mistakes
apt to be made by an inexperienced writer, and makes manifest in the
simplest way the proper method of avoiding and rectifying such blunders
and mistakes, whether they occur in the spelling, the punctuation or the
grammar.
This book explains all the details of correspondence, whether relating to
the form, the penmanship, the directing, folding and sending of a note or
a letter. There are in this book valuable hints about =Love, Courtship and
Marriage=, showing in what style lovers should indite epistles.
There are given all the various letters that arise in the course of
business: Asking for money, requesting time, enclosing remittance, asking
assistance, reasons for refusal, from tenants to landlords on different
subjects, with landlords’ replies. Then--=and this is a very important
feature=--there is shown the legal importance of a letter; and
explanations are given upon the exact meaning of expressions used in
writing, that may be brought into court in litigations. It also contains
the =art of abbreviating writing=, so that any one can, with practice,
write with the rapidity of the shorthand writer. In fact, =the following
persons all require this book=:
YOUNG LADIES AND YOUNG GENTLEMEN.
WIVES AND HUSBANDS.
WIDOWS AND BACHELORS.
FARMERS AND TRADERS.
THE SICK AND THE WELL.
SOLDIERS AND SAILORS.
MOTHERS AND FATHERS.
DAUGHTERS AND SONS.
GIVERS AND RECEIVERS OF PRESENTS.
THE EDUCATED AND THE ILLITERATE.
But it would take page after page to begin to enumerate all the different
classes to whom “=The Complete Letter Writer=” would prove an invaluable
companion. There is nothing worth knowing in any other letter writer not
to be found here, while there are many things of importance here not to be
found in any other book. Notwithstanding all these good points it is only
=Twenty-five Cents a copy=, and is sent at that price, postage paid, to
any part of the United States or Canada. Address
