HODEY'S LADY'S BOOK having been for
Y ESQ long series of years, universally recegni-
zed as the exclusive and indisputable guide to the
fair sex, in matters of taste, fashion, and litera-
ture-th0 only work conducted by distinguished
female authors, who have won for themselves
nigh place among the guiding spirits of the age
the only work whichin point of fact has been ex-
clsively devoted to the ladies-its favor with its
fair patrons has not been less remarkable than its
perfect adaptation their feelings and tastes and
their requirements. In entering upon new year,
the publisher, without diminishing in the least that
sterling and useful literature, which has so long re-
suited from laying under contribution the native
good sense and elegant fancy of our American Fe-
male writer's, Will, as each successive number ap-
pears, present i'll the several departments ofLiteT-
atlIre, Fashion, and Pictorial Embellishments, a
constant and ever varying succession, of new and
striking features. Nor does he promise without
ample ability to perform. The best literary tall
ent, the best efforts ofthe most distinguished artists
in the couritry-and, to crown as we'll adorn the
whole, the most perfect arrangements for the re-
ception of the American; London and Paris Fash
ions, far in advance of any other publication in
this country, enable himto assute the patrons Of
the LADYiS BOOK thasthe forthcoming volume
vii, more than justify its well earned tile of the
Magazine Of Magazines for the ladies of our
country.
1t has passed into custom TO assert that dress is
matter of trifing importance, but this every lady
knows 10 be utterly false Taste i'll dress is uni
versaly felt to he the index of thousand desirable
qualities in woman, while deficiency in this res
pcct always Injuries one in the estimation of stran-
gers, and of her intimate friends-the beauty
of Helen and the wit of Aspasia, would hardly
commend to geneIal favor an acknowledged DowDY
10 dress. Hence the importance of an accredited
guide to the Fashions.
This useful Office, already filled for fourteen
years, with universal acceptance, by the L1dy's
Book, the publisher pledges himselft 10 discharge in
future, in style esupassing all his former efforts.
The ladies know perfectly we'll that our Magazine
is the highest authority in Fashion. "
No lady considers herself well dressed who con-
travencs this authority and, in our own city, IN n
York, Boston, Baltimore, Cincinnati, louisville,
Lexington, St. Louis, New Orleans, Mobile, Rich
nond, Charleston, Savannah, and the other metrop-
oliiip,l cities of the various States, the tasteful
