The great popularity which has aiten-
ded this Magazine for 1915, has induced
the publisher TO outlay still heavier expen~
ses, in order to make il the

The improvement for the year 1916 will
be Of the most extensive and costly charac.

in style of elegance never before attemp-
ted in this country. The January number

scripts of the feudal ages. This elegant
illustration is the first thing of the kind

FASHIONS FROM PARIS.
The Magazine has long maintained the
reputation of giving the most correct
Fashions, accompanied by full letter press
description; and his, 10 country subscri-
bers especially, is great desideratum
We get our Fashions in advance from Paris,
so we can never be beaten in this depart
ment, but will always remain ahead! Each
month, from variety of Patterns, the
Fashions are selected, engraved land
colored for us ahead ofall rivals! To each
plato is added IA llletter press description,
besides information on all the latest styles.
The other magazines have long been
mere copyists of this one which has now
become, in our eastern cities, the Text
Book of Fashion,! So energetic are we in
this department, that we have often actually

To render our periodical FAMILY

give, every month, New Receipts tor
Housewives, patterns for Embroidery, Lace
Work, &c, dc; thus making sort Of wade
mecum, Indispensable TO every female, but
especially to those in the country, who
would learn the latest Improvements in the
city.
A USEFUL HINT.
All the other Magazines are merely
intended for amusement: They have no
higher plan in view. This one, on the
contrary supplies want long ielt, for it
gives the sex, monthly, the Latest
Fashions, the Newest Receipts, the CITY
Chit Chat, and every New Improvement
This it does, alike 10 the lady in the Atlantic
States, and the one in the far West, and on
the same day in the month. What lady can
do without this Magazine? Fitted for a
"Home Book" and :'Boudoir Companion"
alike ii is already perused by tens ofthou-

An equal system of taxation, and az mild a one

American people. IL is their right resting on fun

dangerous power to single class Of capitalists
