THE ALDINE, while issued with all the regu-
larity, has none of the temporary or timely in
terest characteristic of ordinary periodicals 1t
is an elegant miscellany of pure, light, and
graceful literature, and q collection of pictures,
the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in black
and white. Although each succeeding number
affords q fresh pleasure to its friends, the real
value and beauty of THE ALDINE will be most
appreciated after it has been bound up at the
close of the year. While other publications may
claim superior cheapness us compared with
rivals of a similar class, THE ALDINE is q
unique and original couception-alone and un
approached---absolutely without competition in
price or character. The possessor of the volume
Just completed canno: duplicate the quantity OF
fine paper and engravipgs in any other shape OF
number OF volumes for ten times its cost
The labor of getting THE ALDINE ready on
the press is great that reprintng is out of the
question. With the exception OF small num-
Der specially reserved for binding, the edition o.
1871 is already exhausted, and it is now scarce
