Ladies' Home Journal

Ladies' Home Journal ( 1883– ),
monthly magazine founded by C.H.K. Curtis, was edited by his wife until 1889. It was popularized by its second editor, E.W. Bok (1889–1920), who not only obtained famous contributors, but also indulged in mild campaigns for social reform and aesthetic improvements in urban life. Later editors have continued his policies with such success that the circulation in 1994 was about 5,000,000.
