WILD OATS.
PROSPECTUS FOR 1875.
Champion american Comic Paper

Illustrated 10y corps Of the best Ameri-
can artists, and contributed to by the
most popular humoriSts and satirsts OF
the day.
Wild Oats now enters successfully up
on the sixth year OF it's existence, and
has become the established humorous and
satirical paper of the country. 1t was
started and continued the first year as i,
monthly. then, to satisfy the demand Of
the public, it was changed to Il fortnig hit.
ly. Still continuing its good work of
hitting folly as it flies, aud showing up
the political and social sl,ams by it's
mastery cartoons and punyent editorials,
it achieved even greater success than
before, and was recognized as the ablest
and brightest Of its class. Since then we
have yielded still further to the pnbiic
demand, and now publish Wild Oats
weekly! It has literally grown into its
present shape on its intrinsic merits, be-
ing the first successful weekly humorous
paper ever published in this country.
Among the artists especially engaged
to furnish Illustrations for Wild Oats are
Frank Bellew, Thomas Worth Hopkins,
Wales, Shelton, Wolf, Jump, Kcettels,
Stuckhardt, Day, Poland, and several
others who are yet known to fame.
: In its literary departments Wild Oats
will, us it always has, stand alone and
unapproacllable. At least one first-class
serial story will always be found in it's
pages, by the best humorous, satirical,
and character writer's in the United
States; while its sketches and squibs
will be sparkling, original and pointed.
Wild Oats will be tirst-class in every
particular, and on this account may be
taken into the best families without fear
or suspicion, as no word or illustration
will appear that eau offend the most fas-
ti,lious.
