LADIES’ HOME JOURNAL DAY

(http://www.lhj.com/) On this day in 1883 Ladies’ Home Journal was
published for the first time. It became one of the few magazines to reach a
circulation of over one million. Paid circulation is currently over 4,000,000.
But, why not let the folks at LHJ say it in their own words:
“...As the oldest, most respected women’s service magazine in the country,
Ladies’ Home Journal has always focused on issues of crucial importance to
millions of women. Since our first issue, in December 1883, we’ve covered an
incredibly wide range of topics--from the latest medical research and consumer
news to parenting know-how, workplace survival, good skin care, nutrition
facts and much, much more. Every issue includes subjects as diverse as the lives
of our readers, women who work both in and out of the home and who are wives
and mothers as well. With top-quality research, analysis and reporting,
Ladies’ Home Journal represents a standard of excellence that just keeps getting
better after more than a century of service to America’s women. We both
empower women and applaud their growing power. Our fifty year slogan has never
been more true: Never Underestimate the Power of a Woman.”
