cided improvement has been made upon the plan ~
the 8" Phenix and Budget'-and in the way ,torje,
an important reform has been adopted which VIII
abolish the plan of giving long novels continued pr5
vokingy, from number to number
In order to place the work in the hands Of such 4
may not feel willing to pay the expensive price,
of monthly magazines, the proprietor has determined
to publish the work at the extremely low prince
charged for It's palmer and unustrated predecessor
The price will therefore be 81 so per year for .n
gle copy-fve copies for s. 90. This is giving a5ot
four pages for one cent
II is desirable to receive orders at once that we
may know how to regulate our issues.
