The LAKE SIDE MONTHIY-Wit

The LAKE SIDE MoNTHLY--With
the January (l87l) No. of the Western
Monthly, its name will be changed to The
Lakeside Monthly. The Western Monthly
now forms part of the new organization
known as the Lakeside Publishing and
orlnting Company, uf Chicago, it is deem
ed best that it should bear the same of the
Publishing House whose representative it
becomes. The propriety of such change
will be apparent The Magazine will re-
main, however, identically the same, and
will be no less distinctly Western publ
cation than before. Its conductors have
made liberal plans and arrangements for
It's future, and will endeavor that the repu-
tation which The Western Monthly ha,
achieved in the world of letters shall be
maintained and increased under its new
name and new auspices.

THE HARpERs' PUBLICATIONS.

THE HAMPERS PUBLICATIONS.
Among the great publishing houses of the
world, stands that of the Harper Brothers,
New York. Not merely as a publishing
house. in the strictsen of the erm, is this
the case, but as the publishers of works of
hich they themselves are the editors and
proprietors. Harpers' Monthly Magazine
has stood the test for many years, and to-day
has no rival among the many magazines
published in this country. AS an illustra-
ted Journal, Harpers' Weekly is second to
none in the world, and for general reading
Is equal to any newspaper in the country
Harpers' Bazar is the foremost journal of
its kind now published in any country,
giving as it does the latest and most relia-
bic intelligence on the fashions, thus making
it most complete favorite among the
ladies. The prospectuses of these three
publications will be found in another col.
umn of the REPUBLICAN and we commend d
perusal of them to our readers

What Did IT.

What Did It Lyoa' Kathairon made
my hair soft, luxuriant and thick, and Ha-
gan's Magnolia Balm changed that sallow
complexion into the marble beauty you now
see. This is emphatically the language of
all who use these articles. A fine head OF
hair and refined complexion are the great
est attractions woman can possess. The
Kathairon and Magnolia Balm are just what
will give them to you-and nothing else
will. The Balm is the bloom of youth 1t
makes lady of thirty appear but twenty.
Both articles are entirely harmless, and
very pleasant. They should be in every
lady's possession.

2 vine-wreathed cot, by the river side
The low, broad windows opened wide
To the meadow stretched below.
The red, red clover, is all aboom,
Aud the ey-bse revels in sweet per fume,
And the roses nod, and blow,
maid at the lattice, fair and bright,
Stitching away. from morn Till night.
On the snowy robe of a bride.
Stitch, stitch, stitch, till the day grows late,
A, d the maiden turneth her eye to the gate
That swings on its hinges vide.
There are whispered words by the lattice pane
There are ta.eS re-told. VOWS made again,
BY the light of the setting sur.
: nd heart to heart, in the twilight grey,
The lovers talk of the bridal day,
"When the snowy robe is done"
The cottage stands on the grassy shore,
But the vines are dead, and the maid no more
Stitches with love-lt thought
Theresa wan, worn face, at the lattice pane ;
There's wild dark eye, that urns in vain.
10 the gate that opens not.
There's deathlv pal n, in gentle breast
There's a folded robe in an oaken chest
A robe that was never worn.
The field of clover is bleak and grey;
The honey-bee flew to his hive away,
And the winds of the Northland mourn.
