HOW TO CURE A WOUND.

TITLE AND HALF-TITLE PAGES.

With a view to economy of paper, the title and half-title pages of the
Volume which is completed with the present issue are not being delivered
with copies of _Punch_ as hitherto; they will however be sent free, by
post, upon receipt of a request.

Those readers who have their Volumes bound at the _Punch_ Office, or by
other binders in the official binding-cases, will not need to apply for
copies of the title and half-title pages, as these will be bound in by the
_Punch_ Office or supplied direct to other binders along with the cases.
