EXCELLENT RECIPES.

LADIES' GUIDE TO CROCHET.
BY MRS. ANN S. STEVENS.
Copiously illustrated with original and very choice Designs in Crochet,
etc., printed in colors, separate from the letter-press, on tinted
paper. Also with numerous wood-cuts printed with the letter-press,
explanatory of terms, etc. Oblong, pp. 117, beautifully bound in extra
cloth, gilt. Price 75 cents.
This in by far the best work on the subject of Crochet yet published.
There are plenty of other books containing Crochet patterns, but the
difficulty is, they do not have the necessary instructions how to work
them, and are, therefore, useless. This work, however, supplies this
much felt and glaring deficiency, and has the terms in Crochet so
clearly explained that any Crochet pattern, however difficult, may be
worked with ease.
Copies of the above mailed to any address in the United States free of
postage.
