Art work free from competition, and to spare neith-
er thought nor expense to still further beautify and
and improve the broad pages Of the work:
While urging the necessity OF cultivating taste
for the beautiful In Nature and Art, The Aidne has
not been unmlndfu of the force of example and IL
lusration therefore II has been constant study 70
ment so certainly consequent upon sincere devotion
to such subjects As in the past, so In the future The
ALdtne will continue to be an example OF the pro-
gresslve and refining influences Of connection and
association with the beautiful and true.
