We think we can show how much cheapel
it is to take the Lady's Book at Three Dol
lars than any other magazine at Two Dollars
We will take a late number of both. tn,
Two Dollar Magazine contained SO articles
the Lady's Book 90.
The Two Dollar Magazine contained 80 en-
cravings, the Lady's Book 56.
The Two Dollar Magazine contained Ga pa
ges, the Lady's Book 100.
Twenty-four more engravings, twenty siI
more articles, and thirty-six more pages
nearly double the quantity. The lowest clul
price Of the Two Dollar Magazine is S1,25
lowest club price of Lady's Book 81, 67, onl,
AZ cents difference in the price, which is tire
and half cents on each number, and for tina
sum (three and a half cents), you receiv
twenty-siX more articles, twenty-four NOR
/, engravings, and thirty-six more pages month
ly-certainly a very cheap three and a hal
cents worth. This view of the case ha
: probably never before been presented, but it i
vince herself of BY comparing the two maya
zines.

Entering Town Sites.

The following correspondence will show
that the act of the last Legislature Of the
Territory, designating the County Commits
sioners as the proper persons to enter Town
Sites, is not recognized by the COMMISSIONS
of the Land Office.
II is a question OF doubt whether the Judges
of Probate, or the United States Judges, can
be regarded as "Judges of the County Court"
AS soon as that doubt is removed, notice will
be given. In the mean time no entering of
towns not incorporated can be made.
A copy of the act of the last Legislature
will be placed in the hands OF the Commits
sioner, and, under The circumstances, the en-
tries already made MAY be confirmed.
