PETERSON'S MAGAZINE.
DOUBLE-SIZE COLORED STEEL FASHION PLATES!
For many years "Peterson's Magazine" has had a larger circulation, than any other monthly in the United States. In 1866 it will be greatly improved: The reading matter will be increased, and each number will contain a Double-Size Steel Fashion Plate, elegantly colored, with from four to six figures: making "Peterson" more desirable than ever! The terms will remain two dollars a year, with liberal deductions to clubs. Containing nearly one thousand pages annually, fourteen steel engravings, twelve double-size fashion plates, and eight hundred wood-cuts, it will be, in 1866, beyond all question,
THE CHEAPEST MAGAZINE IN THE WORLD.
The novelets and tales are acknowledged to be the very best. More money is paid for original stories than by any other Magazine of the kind. In 1866, in addition to the usual array of shorter stories, Four Copy-righted Novelets will be given, viz:
THE SOLDIER'S ORPHANS, by Mrs. Ann St. Stephens.
THE STOLEN BOND, by the Author of "The Second Life."
THE OLD MILL OF AMOSKEAG, by the Author of "Susy L's Diary"
Mrs. SHODDY'S SKELETON, by Frank Lee Benedict
In its Illustrations also, "Peterson" is unrivalled. The Publisher challenges a comparison between its
SUPERB MEZZOTINTS & other STEEL ENGRAVINGS
And those in other Magazines, and one at least is given in each number.
DOUBLE-SIZE COLORED FASHION PLATES
Each number will contain a double-size Fashion plate, engraved on steel and handsomely colored. These plates will be twice the size of those heretofore given: and will excel anything of the kind yet seen. In addition, wood-cuts of the newest bonnets, hats, caps, head-dresses, cloaks, jackets, ball dresses, walking dresses, house dresses, &c., &c., will appear in each number. Also, the greatest variety of children's dresses. Also, a diagram, by aid of which a cloak, dress, or child's costume can be cut out, without the aid of a mantua-maker, so that each number, in this way alone, will save a year's subscription.
COLORED PATTERNS IN BERLIN WORK, &c.
No other Magazine gives the beautiful and expensive patterns for Berlin Work, &c., printed in colors, for which "Peterson" is celebrated. Many of these, at a retail store, would cost fifty cents. These will be kept up. Each number will also give patterns in Crochet, Embroidery, Knitting, &c., &c.,
RECEIPTS FOR COOKERY, THE TOILET, &C., &C.
Carefully tested receipts will appear monthly, for the Table, the Toilet, the Sick Room, the Nursery, &c. Also, hints on Horticulture, Furnishing, &c. These alone, at the end of the year, will be worth the price of the Magazine. A piece of New and Fashionable Music in each number.
TERMS—ALWAYS IN ADVANCE.

Where a person is entitled to an extra copy for getting up a Club, there will be sent, if preferred, instead of the extra copy, a superb premium mezzotint for framing, (size 27 inches by 20,) "Washington parting from his Generals," or a Lady's Illustrated Album, handsomely bound and gilt. Always state whether an extra copy, or one of these other premiums, is preferred: and notice that for Clubs of three or four, no premiums are given. In remitting, get a post-office order or a draft on Philadelphia or New York: if neither of these can be had, send green-backs or bank notes.
