at a very low price. " The Ladies' Treasury "
is well adapted to the tastes of the ladies
of the household, supplying their various
needs of romance, housewifery, music, literature,
fancy work, and fashion. There are articles of a
higher chaiact2r, such as an essay on " Shakspeare's
Maidens," to be followed by one on " Shakspeare's
Wives," a treatise on Chess, and a discourse on
astrono ny. " Cassell's Illustrated Family Piper "
contains its usual variety of grave and gay, in-
struction, entertainment, and amusement.
