Enquire within upon everything

Stamps.
Always
put
a
Stamp
on
your
envelope,
at
the
top,
in
the
right-hand
corner.
225.
Direction.
Let
the
Direction
be
written
very
plain;
this
will
save
the
postman
trouble,
and
facilitate
business
by
preventing
mistakes.
226.
Postal
District.
If
the
Address
be
in
London
add
the
letters
of
the
postal
district
in
which
it
happens
to
be,
for
this
also
saves
trouble
in
the
General
Post
Office.
Thus
in
writing
to
the
publishers
of
"Enquire
Within,"
whose
house
of
business
is
in
the
East
Central
(E.C.)
postal
district,
address
your
letter
to
Messrs.
Houlston
and
Sons,
Paternoster
Square,
London,
E.C.
227.
Heading.
At
the
head
of
your
Letter,
in
the
right-hand
corner,
put
your
address
in
full,
with
the
day
of
the
month
underneath;
do
not
omit
this,
though
you
may
be
writing
to
your
most
intimate
friend
for
the
third
or
even
the
fourth
time
in
the
course
of
a
day.
228.
Subject.
What
you
have
to
say
in
your
Letter,
say
as
plainly
as
possible,
as
if
you
were
speaking;
this
is
the
best
rule.
Do
not
revert
three
or
four
times
to
one
circumstance,
but
finish
as
you
go
on.
229.
Signature.
Let
your
signature
be
written
as
plainly
as
possible
(many
mistakes
will
be
avoided,
especially
in
writing
to
strangers),
and
without
any
flourishes,
as
these
do
not
add
in
any
way
to
the
harmony
of
your
letter.
We
have
seen
signatures
that
have
been
almost
impossible
to
decipher,
being
a
mere
mass
of
strokes,
without
any
form
to
indicate
letters.
This
is
done
chiefly
by
the
ignorant,
and
would
lead
one
to
suppose
that
they
were
ashamed
of
signing
what
they
had
written.
