Most men wno mingle with great
crowds or participate in an event of
many features aro absolutely unable to
describe in detail any one particular
feature It is then that they find their
weekly newspaper most valuable Just
so it is with the readers of daily news
papers they have not tho time or the
inclination to follow every phase of the
weeks events and so turn to a weekly
newspaper for a conciso and connected
account of any event of more than local
interest This demand is easily sup
plied at small cost by The Weekly
