The Cairo bulletin., 1873-12-19

The Aidine, while issued with all the reg.
uarity, has none OF the temporary or time
| ly interest characteristic of ordinary peri |
Odicas. II Is an elegant miscellany OF pure
light and graceful literature and a collcc-
tion OF pictures, the rarest specimen OF ar |
tistic skill, in black and white. Although |
each succeeding number aiorus a fresh |
pleasure to its friends, the real value and
beauty OF The Aldine will be most apprcci-
| ated after IL has been bound up at the close
OF the year. While other publications may
claim superior chcapness, Us compared with !
| rivals OF Il similar class, the Adine Is an uu-
| iqu" and original conception--alone and un-
| al pI ,ached-absolutely without conception
| In price or character.
