An amazingly nice issue of a popular magazine at the turn of the 20th century. No only is it clean and tightly bound, but it also retains its yapped edges and has the most pristine spine I have ever seen on a century old magazine. The main article is a story about the British Parcel Post and how it ran, but there are other more fetching topics such as "The Power and Beauty of Woman's Eyes", "Platonic Friendship" and "Society's Amateur Circuses." Plus there's pieces on the captains of industry of the day, an idea for equitable taxation and the teaching profession's hardships and rewards. The two most well-known contributions are illustrator Rose Cecil O'Neill, she of kewpie doll fame and Henry Seton Merriman who has a story here titled "Barlasch of the Guard." Magazine measures 6-3/4" x 9-1/2" and has 117 ages, plus many interesting ads at back.
