month, from variety of Patterns, the
Fashions are selected, engraved ,and
colored for us ahead ofall rivals! Toeach
plate is added full letter press description,
besides information on all the latest styles

published the Fashions here before the
London Magazines Of these assertions
we challenge denial!
