"Advice from the Scandal club" was included in the columns of a Review of the state of British nation from Feb. 19, 1704-April 24, 1705. Owing to the vast amount of material received it was decided to publish a monthly supplement beginning Sept. 1704 (cf. no. 58, Sept. 23, 1704). This supplement appeared in five numbers from Sept. 1704-Jan. 1705. The Sept. 1704 issue (announced in the Review for Oct. 21, 1704) had the title: A supplementary journal to the Advice from the Scandal club.
