The Aldine, while issued with all the reg.
ulsrity, has none of the temporary or time
" interest characteristic of ordinary peri
odicals. II II an elegant miscellany Of pure
light and graceful literature and collec-
ton OF pictures, the rarest specimen of ar.
tistic skill, in black and white. Although
each succeeding number anorus hesh
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 sheapness, as compared with
rivals OF similar class, the Aldine is an un-
ique and original conception-alone and un
proached-absolutely without concept"
In price or character.
