THE GARDEN MAGAZINE 



"To business that we love we rise betime 

 And go to 't with delight." — A?iio?iy and Cleopatra 



Doubleday, Page & Company's 



Garden City, L. I., N. Y. 



This firm has moved to light and air, to 

 big floor spaces, to gardens and plenty of land 

 and we hope and believe to do more efficient 

 and more original work than ever before. 



During the last six months we have prob- 

 ably bored our readers more than we should 

 about our plans and country aspirations; we 

 still have a life's work on our hands to de- 

 velop to its full the task we have undertaken, 

 but we realize that merely to talk about it 

 is not enough. We must show something, 

 and we cordially invite our friends to visit 

 us, and see what manner of building and 

 grounds we have planned and the beginning 

 of our hopes' fulfilment. 



If any of our friends and customers wish 

 to find our representatives in New York, 

 they may go to the old building, 133 East 

 Sixteenth St., where some of us in the adver- 

 tising or selling departments will be on hand 

 to serve them; or, our books and magazines 

 may be seen at our new book store in the 

 Concourse of the Pennsylvania Station, 33rd 

 Street and 7 th Avenue, as well as at 133 

 East Sixteenth St. 



Meantime we have our own trunk tele- 



^ phone lines between Garden City and New 



LYork, and you may call us on the Garden City 



[line. At this writing the trains run from the 



[Pennsylvania Station at 7:58, 9:00, 9:32, 11 :oo 



12 :3o, I :oo, 2 :oo, 3 :oo,3 :39,4:i3,4:39, 5 :oo,etc., 



[but in view of the Railway Company's liability 



f to change their schedules without notice, a little 



study of the time table is advisable. If 



[you are down town in New York take the 



[Subway at Wall St., or Bowling Green ten 



to fifteen minutes earlier than the above 



times and change to the electric train at 



Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn. The trip from 



the Pennsylvania Station New York takes from 



35 to 45 minutes, a little less from Brooklyn, 



: and the electric service runs near the Press. 



COUNTRY LIFE TWICE A MONTH AND 

 20 CENTS A NUMBER 



There are certainly 150,000 readers of The 

 ^Garden Magazine who are interested in the 



joys of country living. To all such may we 

 suggest that they get and read the November 

 issue of Country Life which is just out. The 

 magazine is not returnable, and you may have 

 to order it from your newsdealer, although all 

 the larger dealers carry it in stock. The 

 price is reduced to 20 cents an issue, except 

 for the double Christmas number, and the 

 quality is improved, if we have not mis- 

 judged. For $4.00 a year we shall hereafter 

 give the reader twenty-four issues instead of 

 twelve. 



The Mid-Month (November 15) issue of 

 Country Life is devoted to all that pertains 

 to "Inside the Country House." The Con- 

 sulting Editor is Mr. Louis C. Tiffany who 

 voices the keynote of the number when he 

 says: "Beauty in the home has little to do 

 with the amount of money spent." 



OTHER SPECIAL NUMBERS ARE ARRANGED 

 FOR AS FOLLOWS 



Winter Joys Number. 



The Motor Number. 



The Bungalow Number. 



The Back-to-the-Land Number. 



The Little Gardens Number. 



The Little House Number. 



The Rose Lovers' Number. 



The Flight Number. 



The Good Health Number. 



With the enlarged space the publishers 

 intend that Country Life in America shall 

 cover all the subjects that all the people 

 interested in the subject want to know about.
