selves into three sections, the high

"Woman" is the name of a new magazine for women. Hie first number is just issued. Your newsdealer has it. Youcan get it from him, and it is worth your while getting it. There is nothing startling about this magazine. There should be nothing startling about a decent magazine for women and the home. But this particular magazine is unique among all the so-called publications for women. You might not like it a little bit, and then, again, it might hit your fancy good and hard. If you like fiction good, wide-awake, snappy stories both serials and short stories you will like " Woman." In fact, fiction is the big feature of the magazine. All the other magazines for women are cast on the same model a little bit of fiction, a few articles, more or less chit chat, some wise advice, a fashion department and a smattering of general miscellany. "WOMAN" doesn't look any more like this conventional model than a yellow dog looks like a race horse. It is built -on new lines for a strictly woman's publication. To know what it is like you will have to get a copy of it. It would cost too much to tell you all about it in this advertisement.
The price of "WOMAN" is TEN CENTS A COPY, and the magazine is a very big one 192 pages.
By the way, two rattling good serial stories begin in this first number and it contains a big lot of other good things. You would do well to ask your dealer for it before his supply is exhausted. THE FRANK A. MUNSEY COMPANY, New York.
