The Magazine has become the standard Of taste
in matters OF establishment and has led the way
in every thing really beautiful published in the
Magazine Of last year. The voice of the public
press while il places the work at the head Of A.
m2rcan Literature, is unanimous in the announce
mcnt, that no work eyer started in the country

No other magazine Of this KIND can have them

This VIC take to be a good move and although
Che preference is purchased BY US alta very heavy

up to equal thcu in beauty, or to compete with
them in popularity. The engagement is pCrua-
nent and is coG.jaal to magazine work one.

These beautiful cugraviurs will therefore form
a feature Of lIahams Magazine, in every num-
ber, 50 that we shall be able to distance any thing
like competition Oh this ground. These plates
are the most expensive that can be got up for
magazine Of large circulation, in consequence OF
the great price of prnting-bcmg more than
double that of line eneravmgs-and the ncccssi-
ty OF reduplicating the plates our edition alroa-
dy rendering it necessary that two or three plates
Of the same SUBJECT must be prepared for every
number in which they are used We now print
an edition greater than that Of any contemporary
for The last year, and confidently assert that at
the same rate Of increase we shall issue in 1912,
un edition Of not less than 35,0O3 copies monthly,
and slal! soon have M edition unequallcd in the
history of magazine publishing.

ever been done in tbs nltry. The wide spread
fame Of these artists is 4 sufficient guarantee of
the character Of the WORK We shall receive from

RICHLY COLGRED FASHIONS.
In compliance with the almost unanimous wish
Of our lady subscribers we shall furnish them
with beautiful and correct plate Of Fashions, and

has been decidedly popular with both sexes, and
has rendered the work the Text Book OF Fashion,
the Onion over. These fashion plates will be
drawn from original designs from Paris and
l.ondon and may always =" depended upon as
the prevailing style in Philadelphia and New
York for tho month in which they are issued.
These, however; shall in no wise interfere with
the regular and choice ongraVngs, and music
which accompany each number oftho magazine; |
as we shall not suffer oursoivesto be surpassed in
number or beauty of ofilustrdtons by any other
work, but shall maintain the position which we
have assumed, of leading all others in the rich |
