TME WEEKLY TRIBUNE appeals also to Teach
ers, Students, and persons Of inquring minds,
by the character of It's Literary contents, which
include reviews of all the works proceeding
from the master minds of the Old or New
World with liberal extracts from .aose Of
especial interest. Imaginative Literature also
claims attention, but in subordinate degree.
Home Interests are discussed weekly by q
lady specially qualified to instruct and interest
her own sex, and the younger portion of the
other. No column is more eagerly sought or
perused with greater advantage and profit than
hers. The News Of the LAY, calculated by
brief comments, is so condensed that no
reader can deem it d:tfuse, while given suf:
fciently in detail TO satisfy the wants of the
average reader. Selections are regularly made
from the extensive Correspondents Of The
DALY TRIBuSE from every country, and its
editorials of more permanent value are here
reproduced. In short, TuE WEEKLY TGIBUNE
itself TO Millions by ministering to
their intellectual wants more fully than they
are met by any other journal, while its regular
reports Of the Cattle, Country Produce, and
other Markets, will of themselves save the
farmer who regularly notes them far more than
his journals price.
For the family circle Of the educated farmer
or artisan, TnE WEEKLY TRIBUNE has no su-
perior, as is proved by the hundreds Of thou
sands who, having read it from childhood, still
cherish and enjoy it in the prime and on the
down hill Of life. We respectfully urge those
who know its worth to commend TIE WEEKLY
TRIBUNE to their friends and neighbors, and we
profer it to clubs at prices which barely pay the
cost Of paper and presswork
