HE BEST THINGS

IN ENGLISH PERIODICAL LITERATURE RE-
PRINTED UNABRIDGED IN A SINGLE WEEK-
LY MAGAZINE AT MODERATE COST

Whatever other magazines you may subscribe for, you cannot afford not to see regularly The Living Age (Littell's.)

It supplements the American magazines, containing what they do not. It makes superfluous the taking of a considerable list of English magazines, as it reproduces without abridgment the freshest, most important and most timely articles from their pages.

More than thirty of the leading English periodicals are regularly drawn upon to make the contents of The Living Age.

The magazine publishes the best essays, fiction, poetry, travel sketches, literary, art and musical criticism, historical and biographical papers, scientific articles, discussions of social, religious and educational questions, and papers upon PUBLIC AFFAIRS and INTERNATIONAL POLITICS, together with an editorial department devoted to "Books and Authors."

No other magazine, American or English, presents the writings of so many brilliant and distinguished authors.

Light and easy to hold, the magazine contains each year about twice as much material as any of the four-dollar magazines, and its weekly issue enables it to present the articles which it reproduces with great prompt

ness.

The subscription price is SIX DOLLARS a year, postpaid in the United States, Canada and Mexico.

Outside of these countries, foreign postage is required at the rate of three cents a number. To introduce the magazine, TRIAL SUBSCRIPTIONS will be received, Three Months (thirteen numbers) for ONE DOLLAR.
