MUSS& ILATHARL TUCK'S HIST YEAR'S lIND CHRISTMAS
CAZDIL—Year by year this firm of art publishers and
forth works of the great-it bauty, and this year their
001,,ctioa aof unsulassei excellence. The dainty and
charmine cards from the works of well ho men art Its
are produced in a manner which plainly shows that no
care and experme is sp.red in reaching the acme of per.
f.ction. Toeir "II .yel Aestlenly Series of Christmas
and New Year'. Cats " is without doubt the best
c Mertens that could possibly be sent out, and the enter
prising gentlemen who head the firm deserve well the
liberal support and the unprecedented sales for their
unprecedented outlay. Their portfolia of It Y.I Academy
cards deserve any words of paha we can possibly give
them. The treatment of each ol.the designs ie tasteful
and delicate, and the manner in which they are sent
out is ample testimony to the chill of the publishers as

is a ' Mu len beset by °lipid.," a tale told in four
chastrs. Tnis is beautifully painted by Mr. W. F.
R.A., laud faithiuliy reproduced by the
publishers. All the names in the Royal Academy series
are well-known, and we shod! be afraid to hazard a
guess at the outlay to which Meagre Raphael Tuck
must have ventured in producing these exquiste cards.
There are Dahrion„ PorWLef, Leslie, Sant, Marcus Stone,
and lierdman, all Royal Academicians, and their
names are full IIIetITTHE of the excellence of their
works. Besides these very expansive specimens there
are satin and irechanienl construction cards,
besides the countless cheaper sales which are within
everybody's reach, Lod help to make still happier and
brighter the hipposea merry Christmastide. That Messrs.
Raphael Tuck have g..ined the palm is undeniable, end
we should be misjudging enterprise if we did not
add they intend ti kept it.
