NOTE: Pages 39-42, 87-110, and 163-178 are omitted, apparently by design as noted by an amusing footnote at the end of Contents, to WIT: "The reader will perceive an hiatus after p. 38, another after p. 86, and a third after p. 162. Some digressions occurred in those places on subjects too abstruse to be generally interesting; they have therefore been withdrawn; but in consequence of a temporary absence of the author, the suppression took place after the work was printed. As the connexion of its parts is not disturbed, it is hoped that the liberty thus taken will be tolerated with indulgence." A lovely copy of a humorous treatise, taken to the absurd, on the topic of a sense of economy." (Carrie Estelle Dohene Foundation), not only with stunning Cruikshank aquatints, but with the provenance of both Edward Laurence Doheny, and his widow Carrie Estelle Doheny. DOHENY BOOKPLATES Bookplates to front pastedown endpaper, and to front free endpaper. The first, a photograph of a mother, and three children surrounded by images of a country estate, a city home, an oil well, and a sailboat. The ribbons read: "Ex Libris" and "Edward Laurence Doheny". Doheny (1856-1935) was an oil tycoon and philanthropist who drilled the first successful oil wells in Los Angeles, and in Mexico, later expanding into Venezuela. He was implicated in the Teapot Dome scandal, having been accused of offering a bribe to U.S. Secretary of the Interior, Albert Fall. Doheny was twice acquitted, but Fall fell. The second bookplate is that of Doheny's widow, Carrie Estelle Doheny, a giant among philanthropists, with a particular focus on St. Vincent and Vincentian-related charities. Carrie Estelle Doheny ".was a renowned collector of books with a particular interest in Bibles, most notably the Guttenberg Bible, which she owned for decades. In 1983, 25 years after her death, her gift to the Archdiocese of Los Angeles became unrestricted and was liquidated. During the two years of auctions in New York, London, and Paris, her collection at the Edward Laurence Doheny Memorial Library ultimately realized upwards of $34 million." The bookplate depicts a lyre, candle quill and inkpot, an open book, and 9 books, upright upon the desk. ".Money! Money! my friends! Above all things get money, or, what is as important, learn to save it.There are a thousand ways of getting money, but only one of saving it, which is, not to spend it unnecessarily. This is the golden thread on which I have endeavoured to string my pearls of ancient and modern lore, of book-reading and of real life. I have read a great deal, and seen a great deal of all modes of existence.". Cruikshank (illustrator).
