With the advent of the warm weather
comes Sf,as05tfdge @ C7ofhie,ss Quarterly
for summer 1888. It is embellished with a
handsome colored fashion-plat frontispiece,
that attractively and invitingly introduces to
its lady readers its well spread and well
filed table Of contents. The usual short
story that prefaces its varied contents is
named, "Zhe Boy aud the Bridge" and is
contributed by Fannie Windsor. It is writ
ten in the manner of that unapproachable
story-teller, Hans Christian Anderson and
has pathetic ending. Several good draw
ings illustrate the story immediately fol-
lowing the conclusion of the story, extracts
are given from an interesting account Of the
bridge over the Schuylkill at Market street,
Philadelphia written in 1906. This bridge
is the one that gives the title to the story
Thus joined, the story and history prove
doubly interesting reading. The fashion
feature Of interest in the present issue are
the goodly number of pages devoted to illus
trated fashion gossip, furnished by May For
ney. The kitchen department is conducted
by Juliet Corson, whose recipes are always
practicable and reliable. The Craze Club
serial continues its history of the current
craze in all the ways and by-ways of social
