her officers.
CUBA, THE QUEEN OF THE AN
TILLES, is illustrated in all its phases,
from the captain general’s palace to the
hovels of its starving wretches—shown as
it ia today, not as it will appear after
Sampson's fleet has bombarded it, that
will come later.
We have made exclusive arrangements
with the publishers whereby we will fur
nish our subscribers with these beautiful
portfolios, containing 16 reproductions in
each number, at 10 cents for each series.
The regular subscription price is 50 cents,
and those wishing them, who are not sub
scribers to our paper, can secure them at
thatpnee. And they are weU worth 50
cents.
We have samples of these beautiftil
worksofart and history in our office
whirt we would be glad to show you and
take your suhacriptiou for the entire series
eras many parts m you wish.
