Last chance to enter your sub- scription at the $4 rate VOGUE Will Raise its Price to $5 The present rate of $4 holds good until February 15th Owing to the tremendous increase in the cost of paper, labor and materials, Vogue—rather than lower its standard of production in the slightest degree—will raise its price on February 15th, from $4 a year to $5. Vogue is not an extravagance, as mere fiction magazines are. It is an economy, rather. Its advance fashion information and authoritative advice insure you against ‘‘clothes mistakes” and save you many times its subscription price. $4. invested in Vogue atiny fraction of your loss on a single ill-chosen hat or gown will save you $400 The gown you buy and never wear is the really expensive gown. Gloves, boots, hats, that miss being exactly what you want are the ones that cost more than you can afford. Consider, then, that for $4—and $4 surely is a tiny fraction of your loss on a single ill-chosen hat or gown—you may have before you through- out the whole year this world-wide fashion authority, thereby insuring the correctness of your gowning and saving you from costly * mistakes. 24 Issues for $4 Vogue's service cannot be compressed into one copy a month—its timeliness, ils speed, and its determination to give the last authentic word DEMAND that it be published semi-monthly.
