SPLENDID EMBARRASSMENT
! In the department of Engravings. it is well
| known that Graham's Magazine has far sur.
passed any periodical work ever published IN
| this or any other country. The. highest am
btion Of rival publsers seems thus tsf to have
been to maintain a-resPectable imitation OF the
numerous costly and beautiful works of art
with which the successive numbers of this
| Journal have been graced. Among the pic
lures that will be engraved for the volume in
! 1913, are several ORIGINAL P.fINI1NGA
! by Ingham, Inmon,s COX, TEo mpson. freeman,
! Franqlne and other. distinguished artists.
