The Purple Cow!

_Boston Herald._--"The pictures and rhymes in The Lark rank with the most remarkable things done for children since the days of Mother Goose."

_Boston Budget._--"_The Lark_ is a reaction against the decadent spirit. It is blithe, happy, full of the joy of life and the Greek within us--a herald of the dawn of the new century."

_Boston Commonwealth._--"Everything in The Lark is clever--some, we may be permitted to add, cleverer than the rest."

_New York Critic._--"The faddists have produced some extraordinary things in the way of literature, but nothing more freakish has made its appearance in the last half-century than The Lark."

_New York Tribune._--"It is perhaps one-fourth a monthly periodical and three-fourths an escapade. The Lark ought really to be called 'The Goose.'"

_New York Herald._--"The current number of The Lark is, if possible, more curious, more quaint, more preposterously humorous, and more original than its predecessors. It is entirely unlike any other publication."

_Richmond Times._--"We do not understand upon what the editor of The Lark bases anticipation of interest and consequent demand."

_Philadelphia Times._--"The young men who publish The Lark have ideas of their own. The Lark is smart and funny in a way quite its own, and it is also capable of serious flights and of musical notes clear enough to be heard across the continent."

_Cincinnati Commercial Gazette._--"The worst thing about it being that it is all too brief."

_Jersey City Chronicle._--"Every line in it is well worth perusal."

_St. Paul Globe._--"_The Lark_ partakes of the prevalent temper of life on the Pacific Coast, where the don't-care mood of the West takes an especially sunny and cheerful turn, and life looks a bigger joke than elsewhere in the Union."

_St. Louis Mirror._--"_The Lark_ continues to be odd and ridiculous. Its humor is quite unlike any other humor ever seen in this country. There are good men with good pens working on The Lark."

_Kansas City Star._--"_The Lark_ seems to have attained a distinction hitherto considered impossible in the unconventional. It seems really original. It succeeds in holding in captivity the unexpected."

_Los Angeles: The Land of Sunshine._--"It is unlike anything nearer to hand than 'Alice in Wonderland.'"
