The Illustrations OF The Adine have won q
worldwide reputation, and in the art centre,

cuts are examples OF the highest perfection
ever attained. The common prejudice in favor
OF ''steel plates" is rapidly yielding to a more
educated and discriminating taste which rccog
nizes the advantages OF superior artistic quail

wood cuts OF The tdine possess all the delcacy
and elaborate finish of the most costly steel
plate, while they afford better rendering OF
the artists original.
