QuartO New World.
PROSPECTUS OF FOURTH VOL.
COMMENCING JANUARY |, 1912.
EDITED BY PARK BENJAMIN.


DURING the two years which have elapsed since
The New World" was begun, it has been the eff
fort of the Editor to render it the most READABLE
newspaper of the day. To this end the propFietors
have literally contributed Neither trouble nor
pense has been spared. The most popular books
and periodicals have been purchased. The best
contributors have been engaged. correspondence
with the most interesting paris OF the world has
been established. In short, the best arrangements
have been made to publish an independent literary
Journal acceptable 10 all classes of readers. The
editor can think Of nothing which has been left
done to enhance the value and 70 elevate the char
acter of the New World.
It's success has been most encouraging. II will
commence the new year with 1 circulation of about
TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND COPIES, a lar
ger number, it is believed, than is issued Of any
other weekly paper in Great B Jain the United
States. This success is imputed chiefly to two rea.
sons: first, to its having contained an unprecedent
ed number Of excellent articles by the most popular
authors; second, to its having assumed and observ-
contaminated by party politics. and it's ample pages
unsoiled by prone and improper esls, vulgar allu-
sions irregious sentiments; AMI therefore it finds
it's warmest welcome by the domestic hearth, and
receives its highest approx al from that sex, whose
rights II has maintained, in whose deicacy il has
never offended, and whose mental and social supe
rIority it has labored to vindicate.
About to enter upon a new year, and to com,
mence another volume, we proceed to mention
few inducements for old friends TO continue with u.s.
and for new friends TO join their company. No
| change whatsoever will be made In the manner Of
editing and conducting the New Word; but it will
receive in all its departments fresh accessons Of
bility. Many able writers will grace our columns.
