Illustrations.—The journal will make no claims to the character of a “picture book,” but wherever engravings are needed to make the descriptions clear they will be furnished. Some of the engravings which have already appeared in our pages are as fine as anything to be found in the most expensive journals.
Special Notice.
As our journal is too small and too low-priced to claim the attention of news dealers, we are compelled to rely almost wholly upon subscriptions sent directly to this office. As many persons would no doubt like to examine a few numbers before becoming regular subscribers, we will send four current numbers as a trial trip for
FIFTEEN CENTS.
CLUBS.
Where three or more subscribe together for the journal, we offer the following liberal terms:
| 3 copies for | $1.25 |
| 5 〃 〃 | 2.00 |
| 7 〃 〃 | 2.75 |
| 10 〃 〃 | 3.50 |
Advertisements, 30 cents per line.
As postal currency has nearly disappeared from circulation, we receive postage stamps of the lower denominations (ones, twos and threes) at their full value. Postal orders are, however, much safer and more convenient. To avoid delay and mistakes address all communications to “The Young Scientist, Box 4875, New York,” and make all checks and orders payable to John Phin.
