"siting" corrected to "sitting" (page 68)
"baoadcast" corrected to "broadcast" (page 173)
"seond" corrected to "second" (page 180)
"dinning-room" corrected to "dining-room" (page 212)
"anthying" corrected to "anything" (page 244)
Other than that, printer's inconsistencies in spelling, hyphenation, and ligature usage have been retained.
