GoDEY's LADY's Book for August is
Ia delightful number, handsomer in APP
{pearance, and more generally satisfactory
than any of its predecessors. Every
fmonth seems TO mark a stride in the
progress of this popular magazine, The
spresent issue opens with a beautiful
sChiaro-oScmo cut of ''Nly Pets" fine
Sstudy of animal life as contrasted with
graceful girlhood, and grouped against
Ga strong background of nature. The
illustrations this month are capital. A
5series of letters describing the trials OF
Zone pressed into service to write another s
under the title of "a Post.
ascript," are particularly good. A power,
sful serial story, translated from the
3Frencb by Emily LennoX, continues in
4this number, under the title of "ThC
gYoke of Honor" An entertaining con.
3versation on chicken-culture, incubat
9ing, ETC., forms feature of the book

PARTICLES on the useful and ornamental
occupations of women. 'Phillipa'
lPocket-Money" will furnish some valu
liable suggestions to women who arr
alonglng for some way to turn profitable
apenny. A short parlor drama, called
A''He is an Englshman," is given this
smonth for the use of summer idlers whC
edo not care to go too deeply into the
shistrionic. "Della Donna" is q very
Scleyer story of limited length, and Mrs
gHayden's "Cup of Cold Water is wei
Ecalculated to win tho fancy of all lover,
sof romance. GoDEY's' never looked
Sbetter than it looks now. In this day
