The Fashions are published IN the Casket quarter

Paris. The engravings are colored, and executed
from original designs. No old worn out plates are
e-touched, and then published the latest fashions
The truth of designs may be tested by comparing
them with the latest desert pon of dresses from Lon
don an Paris. They universally admitted to be
the finest specimens of ravng and coloring affor
ded by any Magazine in the country. The expense
of getting them up IS greatbut we shall n no wise
abate the quality Remember the readers of the

choice engravings, which always accompany the work
