AN accurate knowledge of how to attend to the every-day affairs of a business life is, indeed, a most valuable possession. The requirements of modern business life are manifold and exacting, demanding technical information, and, besides, quite a degree of what may justly be termed "cultivation." This valuable and indispensable book covers a wide range of information of much importance, and is designed as a text-book for schools, and for ready reference for young people and those who need such instruction as it contains. It treats in an attractive and clear manner subjects which bear on every-day callings, like "Letter-writing," by which so large a percentage of business is conducted; "Bills, Receipts, and Accounts;" "Post-Office Business," with instructions regarding late advantages and scope of accommodation; "Telegrams," "Express Business," "United States Money," "Savings Banks," "National Banks," "Bank Checks," "Notes and Drafts," "Mortgages," "Investment and Speculation," "Taxes," "Fire Insurance," and "Life Insurance." These are topics conveying a general idea of the worth of the book--topics about which business men must know, and covering that which they who would be business men must learn. Keeping relatively abreast of modern methods, the educators of our day see the necessity of imparting _business knowledge_, as well as that which is purely scientific, historical, or literary in its nature; hence, the adaptability of "Every-Day Business" to the necessities of American schools and our progressive ways of life.
