Houghtaling's Revised Hand-Book of Useful Information.

1909 edition. Orange wraps, 18mo, 224pp. Very Good+ with light soil and a few small snags around the edges of the wraps. A few practical illustrations (and for some reason, a plate showing the "Egyptian Obelisk" in Central Park on page 51). Useful information about naturalization laws, how presidential elections work, the cost of tin roofing, how to remove a tight ring, "What is Dynamite and How is it Made" and some health remedies, including "Simply stop breathing." Plus editorialized history and U.S. Census data, including a detailing of marriages with French nationals. Nice pictorial ad for expanding document envelopes on the last page.
