ceany of pure, light and graceful literature; and
collection of pictures, the rares specimens of artistic
SKILL in black and white. Although each succeeding
number affords fresh pleasure to its friends the real
value and beauty of THE ALDINE will be most APP |

year. While other publications may claim superior
cheapness, compared with rivals of similar class

engravings in any other shape or number of volumes

ART DEPARTMENT, 1874.
The illustrations of THE ALDLNE have won
orldwde reputation and in the centres of Europe
it is admitted fact that its wood cuts examples
of the highest perfection ever attained The common
prejudice in faver of steel plates is rapidly yielding
to a educated and discriminating taste which
recognizes the advantages of superior artistic quality
with greater facility OF production The woodcuts of
THE ALDLNE posses all the delicacy and elaborate
finish of the most costly steel plate while they afford
better rendering of the artists original

ALDLNE will reproduce examples of the best foreign
masters, selected with view to the highest artistic

in his own home the pleasures and refining influences
of true art.

designs appropriate to the by best artists
and will surpass in attractions any of its predecessors
