 gan, wiitosthus: "The Illnsliiilid Moinc Jour- 

 nal, is lit the very head in Ktvlc\ tvpogruphv, 

 and everything that npi'lalns to (lie pi'inlor's 

 art. and no wonder, I'or'r. G. Newman is its pub- 

 lisher. The initial number Hurelj- prtimises a 

 gfiiuirie siic'i-css, if siiceess is I'ossiBi.B in this

 prise a full measure of prosperity." 



P. H. Elwond, Starkville, N. V. : "The April 

 number of the Illustrated Home Journal came 

 a few days ago, and it seems to lie a general 

 favorite in the family circle. I have no doubt 

 it will be a grand success."

 thus: "We are very much i)leased with the 

 Illustrated Home Journal, and wish it abun- 

 dant success." 



Frank A. Eaton, Bluffton, O., writes thus: 

 " I am dolighleil with the Illustrated Home 

 Journal ; its contents are choice literature, 

 and it is tilled with line instruction, which 

 makes it true to name. Its typography and 

 i|uality of paper are the best. 1 shall careful- 

 ly preserve ^ olumo IV, commencing with the 

 April number, and have it bound." 



Mrs. L. C. .\xtell. Roscville, HI., writes thus: 

 "The Illustrated Home Journal is received, 

 and I have read the greater portion of it 

 through, and find it a magaziiieof much better 

 tone than the most of our home and fireside 

 reaciiug; in fact I am well pleased with it, and 

 wish .you success. " 



The Rev. M. L. Williston, Chicago, Ills., 

 writes: "The Illustrated Home Journal has 

 e(jme, and I admire this Centennial niunljer 

 greatly. You have made a rich issue of it." 



G. W. Bomaree, Christiansliurg. Ky., says: 

 "As a magazine for the family, the Illustrated 

 Home Jourual cannot help being a pleasing 

 visitor in the families, wherever it g(tes. I 

 lui\-e seen nothing of the kind in our famil.v 

 that is so pleasing as your Illustrated Home 

 Journal." 



H. H. Brown, Light Street, Pa., writes thus: 

 "I received the Illustrated Home Journal for 

 April a few days ago. It is a magazine that 

 should be found in the liomes of all who desire 

 a paper that gives instruction, and its articles 

 are of such a nature that they cannot help but 

 please all who read its pages. ' 



C. H. Dibbern. Milan. 111., thus writes: "The 

 first number of the Illustrated Home Journal 

 was duly received. I have now had time to 

 look it over, find form some opinion of the 

 character of tlie work, ('oming :ill unan- 

 nounced, it is ceriainly a very agreeable sur- 

 prise to us all. The style of printing, and the 

 cliaracler of its contents, are flrst-iMass. Tlie 

 Illustrated Home Journal will no doubt take 

 its idace siiccililj" among the leading journals 

 of tiieda>-, and "do what it can to make the 

 worlil Ijctter and happier." 



G. K. Hutiliard, Fort Wayne, Ind., writes as 

 follows: The Illustraled Home Journal was 

 duly received, and shows tiiat it has been 

 through the hands of skilled workmen, from 

 its general make-up. The editorevirlently has 

 a correct idea of the pl'HE and kxtehtai.mno 

 class of reading which shoiilil be phiced in our

 family touch such a responsive chord, or re- 

 ceive such a hearty welcome.
