Branwell Bronte created the Young Man's Magazine when he was a kid and passed on "editorship" to Charlotte Bronte, then 13, when he got bored of it. She filled it with heroic poems, fairy stories, and fake ads. It also exhibited her and Branwell's temporary obsession with vivisection. Here are some of the ads:
