Judging from the number OF readers THE
DAILY STAR has. They are lately find
ing out that THE STAR gives them the
cream of the news for breakfast, leaving
the whey for other papers to serve for
dinner.
1t is difficult for some of our citizens
to understand how it is that they can
get the market reports OF the commercial
centres OF the world and telegraphic in
telligence five hours earlier through THE
. DAILY STAR than through the morning
papers.
They should remember. that The STAR
lis in evening paper, coming to US while
the other papers are making. up and
printing the matter which It,, With its SUI.
lperior facilities, has obtained and put in
print several hours earliep, and which
these same morning prints publish dur.
ing the night and date the next day.
The market reports Of PHE STAB are
understood by our dealers who have
watched them to be as complete and re
liable as those of any paper published
and are especially priced by them on ac.
count of the fact that they reach us &c
much earlier than those Of any Other
lpaper.
