LONE HAND MAGAZINE.

A copy of the "Lone Hand" Magazinfe is to hand from Mr C. C. Aitken, bookseller. Queen Street. Ihe production, which is excellent and typically Australian, has just been published by the Bulletin Company, but let the editor of the "Lone Hand" explain the mission of the publication. He says:—"'The Lone Hand' will be a patriotic magazine, and will boom Australia at every opportunity. Most Australian papers do their little bit to push our cart along, but it is mostly useless as the papers only circulate amongst our own people. The Lone Hand, which is to have a circulation of 50,000. will circulate all over the world, and if it doesn't influence the tide of immigration* to turn our way, it will fail in its chief mission. The magazine will go in for good all,'ound quality rather than for a couple of features, and a quantity of inferior matter per issue, as is the case with a big percentage of English and American magazines." The first issue cbntains "The Bulletin Memoirs," by J. F.' Archibald, founder, and for many years editor. It contains many fine pictures of early political life. Some of the choicest of Victor J. Daley's poetry is included, and there are articles, stories and pictures galore.
