Excerpt from Dr. Chase's Recipes, or Information for Everybody: An Invaluable Collection of About Eight Hundred Practical Recipes, for Merchants, Grocers, Saloon-Keepers, Physicians, Druggists, Tanners, Shoe Makers, Harness Makers

The amount paid for information inbu'e work, and for testing by experiment, together with traveling' expenses, and cuts used in illustrating it, have reached over two thousand dollars, and all for the purpose of making a book worthy to be found in Everybody's library, and to prevent such extortions in the price of Recipes. Yet any single Recipe in the work which a person may wish to use, will often be found worth many times the price of the book, perhaps the Beer of those you dearly love, by having at hand the necessary information enabling you to My apply the means within your reach, instead of giv ing time for disease to strengthen, whilst sending, perhaps miles, for a physician. Much pain and suffering, also, will often be saved or avoided, besides the satisfaction of knowing how many things are made which you are constantly using, and also being able to avoid many things which you certainly would avoid, if you knew how they were made.
