THE UNIVERSAL BINDER.

A New and Superior Binder for Our Magazines.

A and C are the two covers separated.

A-cover shows the paper filed on the wires, and the back or flap (B) which forms the back of the book.

C-cover has a metal hinge or clamping-bar, perforated for the wires, with lugs to hold the wires when bent down, and a pocket for the back to slide into.

D shows the complete book, made without the objectionable bulging back of other binders.

The back (B), when in the pocket, forms a complete book with one sheet or any thickness of paper placed in the binder. The wires are toughened by a process, and will not break.

We are gratified at being able to call the attention of our subscribers to an Improved Binder that we know will give entire satisfaction. It is made very strongly, of the best materials, and makes a handsome, finished-looking volume whether filled with the full number of magazines required, or with but one or two copies. The Binder is made in two sizes and two styles; one is adapted for Wide Awake and one for The Pansy. The name of each magazine is stamped in gold on the covers. Any magazine that is of the same size as either of the above may be bound, either permanently or for temporary preservation. For instance, Babyland or the C. Y. F. Journal will fit Wide Awake binder very well.

We can supply the binder for either magazine in full cloth, or in half Russia. An awl for punching holes in the magazines accompanies each Binder.
