cided improvement has been made UPON the plan of
the "Phenix and Budget"-and in the way of stories
an important reform has been adoPed, which will
abolish the plan of giving long noyesconnued, pro-
vokingy, from number TO number.
In order to place the work in the fnnds of such as
may not feel willing TO pay the expensive prices
OF monthly magazines, the proprietorhas determined
to publish the work at the extremely low price
charged for its palmer and unustraed predecessor
The price will therefore be 81 so pei year for sin
gle coPy-fve copies for IS co. Thi is giving about
four pages for one cent!
1t is desirable to receive orders q once that we
may know how to regulate our issues
The trade will be served at very liberal rates
