The Aldine, while issued with all the reg.
ularity, has none Of the temporary or time
ly interest characteristic Of ordinary peri
odicals. 1t Is an elegant miscellany OF pure
light and graceful literature and collec-
ton OF pictures, the rarest specimen Of ar.
tistie skill, in black and white. Although
each succeeding number affords Il esh
pleasure TO Its friends, the real value ana
beauty OF The Aldine will be most appreci-
ated after 1t has been bound up at the close
of the year. While other publications may
claim superior eheapness, as compared with
rivals OF a similar class, the Aldine is an un-
ique and original conception-alone and un
proached-gbsolutely without concept"
In price or character.
