Wliat Subscribers say about 
the Chromo*. 
We have a large number of letters from sub¬ 
scribers who have received the Chromos, ex¬ 
pressing their delight in the possession of ihese 
beautiful pictures. We give below extracts 
from a few of these letters. The Chromos are 
being delivered as rapidly as possible. 
“ 1 Mischief Brewing ’ arrived on the Sd, and immediately 
commenced brewing mischief, in that no one could properly 
attend to their work for looking at the Chromo." 
“The picture alone, in my opinion, is worth three times 
the subscription price of Hearth and Home, and the bitter is 
a 'mine of useful and entertaining knowledge." 
“ Your premium Chromo has just been received. Well 
pleased with it. Thanks.” 
“I received the two Chromos, and am highly pleased with 
them ; they were beyond my expectations. I am profoundly 
obliged to you for them: i will try my best now to get as 
many subscribers as possible." 
“We have received the Chromo, ‘ Strawberry Girl,’ and 
are very much pleased with it. Every one who has seen it 
considers it a beautiful picture." 
“ Your Chromos are by far the best sent to this plane by 
any publisher. So say all.” 
"I received the new Chromo sent last week, for which 
you will please accept my thanks. I think it is a perfect 
beauty. Every one who has seen it; is pleased with it.” 
“ I received the Hearth and Home Chromo a few days 
ago, safe. The almost universal exclamation in reference to 
it is, - Beautiful! ’ ‘ Lovely ! ’ That face is hard to surpass." 
-‘I received my picture (Mischief Brewing) and would 
not take ttie retail price for it, $5.00." 
“The Chromo, ‘The Strawberry Girl,’ was received in 
good condition. It is a fine thing, and the wonder is. at the 
rate Chromos are selling, even in New York, that von can 
send such a one out as a gift to subscribers to Hearth 
and Home.” 
“ I think the Chromos are splendid." 
“ It does seem wrong for me to add to your labor by even 
reading this note, and I at first thought I would no,t do it. 
But I lelt so mean to receive two such gifts as the Chromos 
olHearth and Home and Agriculturist and not so much as 
reply with a ‘ thank you.’ I could not stand it any longer 
since seeing the delight of my subscribers over their Chromo 
for the Agriculturist. Please forgive me for the time it 
takes you to read this, and the thanks I send with theirs 
for the splendid presents. ‘Truly a thing of beauty is a joy 
forever.' ” 
“We thank you heartily for it (Chromo, ‘Strawberry 
Girl’). We look upon it as a gift, considering the paper to 
lie worth more than the price charged for it. Its weekly 
visits are looked forward to, alike by old and young, With 
great pleasure. We consider the tone of the paper of the 
highest order, and the principles inculcated such as can not 
fail to exert a good influence upon the present and future 
generations." 
“ The Chromos are now coming to hand for my subscrib¬ 
ers, and as you probably wish to know how they are re¬ 
ceived, I write to say they give universal satisfaction in 
every instance, although all my subscriptions were taken 
for the papers themselves, and are considered worth the 
money, and Chromos are thrown in. The papers, Hearth 
and Home, and Agriculturist, in our estimation, are ahead 
of anything now out. for all homes, and should be taken 
universally." 
“Your premium Chromo of the ‘Strawberry Girl’ for 
Hearth and Home came to hand by mail all right. It is 
beautiful beyond our expectations, and is really up to and 
beyond your description of it. We thought some, little ex¬ 
aggeration might be allowed, when so many Chromos were 
in the market, and you hlul so many competitors. But in 
this, as well as in your premium Chromo for Agriculturist. 
the one half has not been toid. AYe admire both hugely, 
and thank you most, heartily for them." 
“ Your Chromos are received, and we are exceedingly 
well pleased. They are both beautiful, but we fancy the 
American picture. Please accept our thanks.” 
“ Your beautiful Chromo, ‘ Mischief Brewing,’ arrived 
safely by mail. I think it must be admired wherever seen, 
it is so truly excellent."
