1886 CE
The Ladies' Home Journal had arisen from a popular single-page supplement in the American magazine Tribune and Farmer titled "Women at Home".
"Women at Home" had been written in 1883 by Louisa Knapp Curtis, wife of the magazine's publisher Cyrus H. K. Curtis.
After a year, it had become an independent publication with Knapp as editor for the first six years.
Its original name was The Ladies Home Journal and Practical Housekeeper, but she drops the last three words in 1886.
It will rapidly become the leading American magazine of its type, reaching a circulation of more than one million copies in ten years.
