HOW TO GET INTO THIS BOOK.

     Knock at the Knocker on the Door,

    Pull the Bell at the side,

Then, if you are very quiet, you will hear a teeny tiny voice say through the grating “Take down the Key.” This you will find at the back: you cannot mistake it, for it has J. J. in the wards¹. Put the Key in the Keyhole, which it fits exactly, unlock the door and WALK IN.
