DICK & FITZGERALD,
No. 18 Ann Street, New York.
THE FOUNTAIN OF ALL KNOWLEDGE.
THE REASON WHY:
A CAREFUL COLLECTION OF
Some Thousands of Reasons for Things which, though Generally Known, are Imperfectly Understood.
A BOOK OF CONDENSED SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE FOR THE MILLION.
BY THE AUTHOR OF "INQUIRE WITHIN."
This is a goodly sized volume of 356 pages, comprising a sort of Encyclopedia of Scientific Information of all kinds. It is arranged with an Alphabetical Index, in referring to which you can solve almost any problem in Natural Philosophy or Learned Science that may come up. It is a book that will give you the cream of the information that a long course of practical experiments and profound study has imparted to the savants and philosophers of this progressive age. It contains a collection and solution of Thirteen Hundred & Thirty-Two Facts in Science & Philosophy, some of which, on their first discovery, puzzled the most learned and apt scholars.
It is useless to go into details of this excellent work. Suffice it to say, that it treats on every imaginable subject pertaining to Causes and Effects, and must necessarily be invaluable to all persons who desire KNOWLEDGE, and whose means and position in life have prevented them from acquiring it by a regular and tedious course of Study.
