About the Publication: Ladies' Home Journal had its beginnings in a newspaper column called "Women and Home" in the Philadelphia Tribune and Farmer. In 1883, the writers of the column, Cyrus Curtis and Louisa Knapp Curtis, began a supplement to the Tribune and Farmer called Ladies' Journal. He was the publisher, and she was the editor. The supplement quickly developed into a magazine, which was named Ladies' Home Journal and became a prototype for other women's magazines. It was still being published at the beginning of the twenty-first century. M.E. Musselman may have been Emma Musselman, a fashion illustrator for Ladies' Home Journal.
