The Cosmopolitan for March is
before us, and is the most superb
number Of that excellent magazine
which has yet been issued. 1t bears
its new cover, which, after the order
of magazine covers, is as ugly as il
could possibly be made, but is quite
striking withal. The leading article
is "German Opera in New York, u
which is given the prominence Of
colored illustrations. E. P. Roe's
new serial, "Miss LOU" also begins
in this number. 1t has also several
other articles of unusual merit. We
consider the Cosmopolitan better
worth its subscription price, $500
per year, than any other magazine
published. We will send it and the
STANDARD both one year for $3.50

unusual features Of this great nat

quately written about. The conclud.
