hing Agreeably to the practice OF last year,
the publisher will issue as good a number each
month as be- does in January. This is a novel fsu-
:ure in Magazine publishing. During the whole /
OF last year he gave more engravings and more
reading matter than any OF his contemporaries,
and will continue 10 do so next year. Those who
subscribe to GODEY's LADY's Book, may do so un-
der the assurance that they will receive more for
their money in the Magazine alone, than by sub
scubing Tor any other work. To this is added and
included in thesame g, the LADY's DOLLAR News
PAPER, which contains in one month nearly, if not
quite as muck reading moIIer as the other month
les, making for s., the amount OF reading OF two
magazines a month"; There are pecnliarties about
Godey's Lady's Book for the ladies that no other
Magazine possesses. There is a Mezzoiint and
Line Engraving in each numher-bOh by the best
artists. lu addition to these, there are given
monthly what no other magazine gIves-a Color
ed Fashion Plate, with full description. This
feature is peculiar to Cooley, as no other vol has
them every month and colored. Then there are
Caps, Bonnets, Chemisettes, Equesiranism forI
Ladies, with engravings. The Ladies' Work Ia
be, with designs for knitting, netting, crotchet,
and all other kinds Of work. Patterns for Smo.
king Caps, Chair Covers, Window Curtains, D'Oy-
ley's, Purses, Bags, etc. etc. Health and Beauty,
with engravings. Model Cottages, with ground

OF something useful. Music, beautifully printed
on tinted paper, which may be taken out and
bound. Colored Modern Cottages, and Coored
Flower Pieces occasionally. These are all extra

These were all given last year, and will be con-
