When No. 29 was published there were only eleven (half-yearly) volumes
of _Punch_ available for use by the patient who is here seen consulting
Dr. Punch. There are now available one hundred and fifteen of these
volumes, and actual experience of Dr. Punch's advice to his patient
enables me to thoroughly indorse the soundness of the advice given by
the wise and genial old doctor of Fleet Street.
