affection for it exists among those who
read and know it's merits.
Certain it is that no journal contains so
many attractive and original features.
Enjoyable in the highest degree, it's tone
is the purest. its literary standard the

well-filled pages the grace, learning, wit,

He brains the boy that's keeping tally.
