Eighty large, double-column Octavo Pages of Choice Reading Matter in each Number. Elegantly Illustrated with Steel and Wood Engravings.
THE THIRD VOLUME OF THE HOME MAGAZINE BEGINS IN JANUARY, 1854.
In conducting this work, the editor (T. S. Arthur) pledges himself to keep its pages free from everything that is ill-natured, profane, or vulgar; while, at the same time, he will seek to impart thereto the highest possible degree of interest.
Of its quality we will let the press speak. From hundreds of editorial notices of a highly commendatory character, the following are taken:—
Arthur's Home Magazine.—The publishers of this valuable monthly have added a new feature to its attractiveness. The second volume, beginning with the number for July, opens with a beautiful steel plate, besides a great number of fine wood engravings. The Home Magazine only lacked this feature, of illustrations, to make it not only one of the best, but one of the most beautiful and attractive of all our monthlies. With this addition, it will certainly rank among the first, if not at the head of the list.—Journal, Greenville, N. Y.
Arthur's editorial department is characterized by sense, energy, and progress.—Philadelphia Delta.
Parents, if you wish to create and foster a love for reading in your children, obtain Arthur's Magazine.—Courier of Reform, Concord, N. H.
Arthur's Home Magazine is before us in its endless variety. It is the finest breakfast-table companion we meet with. A person can peruse its pages with pleasure and profit for a moment, or for hours.—Herald, Fond du Lac, Mich.
This monthly, although one of the youngest, is certainly one of the most popular periodicals in the country.—Philadelphia Inquirer.
This periodical should be a "standard" in every family.—Intelligencer, Amsterdam, N. Y.
