Domestic Life, &c. &c, keeping ahead of
all rivals. We shall give portrait of the

FASHIONS FROM PARIS.
The Magazine has long maintained the
reputation of giving the most correct
Fashions, accompanied by full letter press
description; and this, TO country subscri
bers especially, is a great desideratum
We get our Fashions in advance from Paris,
so we can never be beaten in this depart
nent, but will always remain ahead! Each
month, from variety. of Patterns, the
Fashions are selected, engraved,a ,and
colored for us ahead ofall rivals! Toeach
plate is addeda ulletcr press description,
besides information on all the latest styles.
The other magazines have long been
mere copvists 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
published the Fashions here before the
London Magazines. Of these assertions
we challenge denial!
THE HOME DEPARTMENT.
10 render our periodical FAMILY
Magazine, as well as lady's book, we
give, every month, New Receipts tor
Housewives, patterns for Embroidery, Lace
Work, &c, &c; thus making sort Of wade
mecnm, indispensable to every female, but
especially to those in the country, who

city.
A USEFUL HINT.
