THE LITERATURE
is Of that kind that can lie read aloud in the family
circle, and the clergy in immense numbers are
subscribers for the Book
THE BEST LADF WRITERS
in America contribute to its pages, and we have
some that write for no other magazine.
THE Music
is all original, and would cost 25 cents fthe price
of the Book) in the music stors; but most of it is
copyrighted, and cannot be obtained except in
"Godey.''
OUR STEEL EEGRArINGs.
All efforts to rival us in this have ceased, and
We now stand alone in this department, giving, as
we do, many more and infinitely better engrayings
than are published in any other work,

PLATES,

Fashions on each plate. ofher Mogaztnes gire

FAR AHEAD OF .aNY FASHIONS IN EU-
ROPE OR AMERICA.
Godey's is the only work IN the world that gives
these immense plates, and they such as to have
excited the wonder Of publishers an6 public The
publication ct these plates cost 0,0Oo MORE than
Bankruptcies of the OLD style, and nothing but
our wonderfully large circulation enables us to
give them. Other magazines cannot afford it,
We never spare money when the public can be be-
nefitted.
These fashions may be relied on. Dresses may
be made after them, and the wearer will not sub
iect herself to rdiculs as would be the case if she
visited the large cities dressed after the sty of
the plates given in some of our called fashion
magazines.
OUR WOOD ENGR.7YINGS,
of viii ch we give twice or three times as many as
any other magazine, are often mistaken for steel.
They ara so far superior to any Others.
IMIT4TTONS.
Beware Of them. Remember that the Lady's
Book is the original publication and the cheapest
IL you take Cooley, you want no other magazine
Everything that is useful or ornamental in a
house can be'iound in Cooley.
DRAINING LESSONS.
No other magazine gives them, and we have
given enough TO fill several large volumes.
