The soldier's orphans
Stephens, Ann S. (Ann Sophia)
American fiction -- 19th century
Each number will contain a double-size Fashion plate, engraved on steel
and handsomely colored. These plates contain from four to six figures
each, and excel anything of the kind. 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 diagrams, 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 diagram in this way alone, _will
save a year’s subscription_. The Paris, London, Philadelphia and New
York fashions described, in full, each month.
_COLORED PATTERNS IN EMBROIDERY, CROCHET, &c._
The Work-Table Department of this Magazine IS WHOLLY UNRIVALED. Every
number contains a dozen or more patterns in every variety of Fancy work;
Crochet, Embroidery, Knitting, Bead-work, Shell-work, Hair-work, &c.,
&c., &c. SUPERB COLORED PATTERNS FOR SLIPPERS, PURSES, CHAIR SEATS, &c.,
given—each of which at a retail store would cost Fifty cents.
“OUR NEW COOK-BOOK.”
The Original Household Receipts of “Peterson” are quite famous. For 1867
our “COOK-BOOK” will be continued: EVERY ONE OF THESE RECEIPTS HAS BEEN
TESTED. This alone will be worth the price of “Peterson.” Other Receipts
for the Toilette, Sick-room, &c., &c., will be given.
NEW AND FASHIONABLE MUSIC in every number. Also, Hints on Horticulture,
Equestrianism, and all matters interesting to ladies.

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, or either of the famous “BUNYAN
MEZZOTINTS,” the same size as the “WASHINGTON.” _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
