she knows all that is going on, and is bright and
entertaining in conversation but l could do as
well as she does if ! had the same source of

reading, about various social matters and the
topics of the day, than would pick up in amonth
by my occasional chats with friends. 1t certainly

and everything is so beautifully illustrated, too.
Every time Mamie goes over to the Aliens she
comes back and leases me to get you to take
Demorests Family Magazine, as the stories are
SO good Even the boys watch for it every month,
as a place is found for them also in its pages; and
Mr. Allen swears by it. 1t is really wonderful
how it suits every member of the family !"

offering to send Specimen Copy for 10 cents, so
we can't lose anything, as each number contains
