Enquire within upon everything

22.
Instead
of
"After
which
hour,"
say
"After
that
hour."
23.
Self
should
never
be
added
to
his,
their,
mine,
or
thine.
24.
Each
is
used
to
denote
every
individual
of
a
number.
25.
Every
denotes
all
the
individuals
of
a
number.
26.
Either
and
or
denote
an
alternative:
"I
will
take
either
road,
at
your
pleasure;"
"I
will
take
this
or
that."
27.
Neither
means
not
either;
and
nor
means
not
the
other.
28.
Either
is
sometimes
used
for
each--"Two
thieves
were
crucified,
on
either
side
one."
29.
"Let
each
esteem
others
as
good
as
themselves,"
should
be,
"Let
each
esteem
others
as
good
as
himself."
30.
"There
are
bodies
each
of
which
are
so
small,"
should
be,
"each
of
which
is
so
small."
31.
Do
not
use
double
superlatives,
such
as
most
straightest,
most
highest,
most
finest.
32.
The
term
worser
has
gone
out
of
use;
but
lesser
is
still
retained.
33.
The
use
of
such
words
as
chiefest,
extremest,
&c.,
has
become
obsolete,
because
they
do
not
give
any
superior
force
to
the
meanings
of
the
primary
words,
chief,
extreme,
&c.
34.
Such
expressions
as
more
impossible,
more
indispensable,
more
universal,
more
uncontrollable,
more
unlimited,
&c.,
are
objectionable,
as
they
really
enfeeble
the
meaning
which
it
is
the
object
of
the
speaker
or
writer
to
strengthen.
For
instance,
impossible
gains
no
strength
by
rendering
it
more
impossible.
This
class
of
error
is
common
with
persons
who
say,
"A
great
large
house,"
"A
great
big
animal,"
"A
little
small
foot,"
"A
tiny
little
hand."
