Der of the Ladys Book for 1863 This alone will
place the Ladys Book in literary point of view

articles by the best authors in America. And all
these will be given in 1853, at prices for which
see extremely low club rates.
The oldest the best, and the cheapest magazine
in America is the Godeys Lady Book. The inn
mense increase in the circulation of Cooley (hay-
ing trebled itself in the last years. is conyinc-
ing proof of the superiority of the work, if the
work itself was not sufficient evidence. And when
it is considered that not bribe in the shape of
premium has ever been offered. it shows that Co.
dey's Lady's Book stands first in the hearts of A.
merican ladies, who subscribe for the sake of the
Book and not TIL premium. -

writers in AIne and has always been remark
able for its high literary and moral character

superior 10 that of any other magazine, having

Of Steel engravings, the press have unanim GUS
ly pronounced Godey's the best ever published by
any magazine of the world. \ on may look in
vain for IA such steel engravings were publish
ed during the year 1862. and those for 1853 will
surpass them Other magazines do not go to the
expense of original designs Cor their steel engrav
ings. The Double Fashion plate has from to
| full length fashions on each plate. Other maga-
zines give but two. Cooley is the only work in the
world that gives these immense plates. which cost
| $4,000 more than the old style These fashions
may be relied on as correct. They are always
the latest styles, and hence ladies not subject

visit the large cities
