One Of the cheapest Works eper offered to
the Public.

In presenting to the public the October
number of the LADY'S BOOK, the Propri
etors feel much pleasure in inviting atten
ton to a comparison between 1t aud the
preceding numbers. 1t Will be perceived
that gradual, but decided improvement,
has been effected in its embellishments;
particularly in the department of the cos
ume oflashions, which have been executed
by KELLY; an artist who, in the emhel
lishment which accompanies this number,
has literally exceled himself; rendering the
prints Of Fashions of the LADI'S BOOK
sufficiently excellent to compete with the
best executed in London, and to surpass
those Of Paris.-Hence, the public will
perceive that the hopes Of progressive i'm
provement, which the proprietors of the
LADY'S BOOK have expressed TO their
patrons have been fully realized.
a very material change is Observable in
the reading department of the LADY'S
BOOK, which Improvement will proceed,
or. at least, be sustained, by the exertions
OF its contributors; and, as furtherseXpres-
sion Of their gratitude 10 a patronizing com
Imunlty, the publication for january, 1884
Will contain TwENTY-FoUR ADDITIONAL PA
GEs, and the whole number will be eXclu-
slye!y devoted to and composed Of ORR
GiNAL subects-every article written ex
pressly for the work.
Among the contributors on this occasion
may be enumerated Miss Leslie, author Of
the Prize Tale entitled s'Mrs. Washington

to Them that their intentions aud exertions
have not been dlsregarded or forgotten, by
those Tor whom they have been made.
After the iisrt OF January ii is the inten-
ZION OF the proprIeIors to send circulars to
all who are IN arrears one year. Subscri-
Sers wishing to AVOID the expense of post
age, will please make payment before that
time.
