In the line of critical notices of new books, de-
ciaed improvement has been made upon the plan OF
the 90 Phenix and Budget'-and in the way OF stories,
important reform has been adopted, which vii
abolish the plan OF giving long novels continued pro-
vokingy, from number to number.
In order to place the work in the hands of such
may not feel willing to pay the expensive prices
of monthly magazines, the proprietor has determined
TO publish the work at the extremely low price
charged for its palmer and unillustrated predecessor
The price will therefore be 81 50 per year for sin
gle copy-fve copies for SIS 90. This Is giving about
four pages for cent.
1t is desirable to receive orders at once, that we
may know how to regulate our issues.
The trade will be served at very liberal rates p
extremely anxious to extend the usefulness
of the work as widely as possible
