Wild OATS.
PROSPECTUS FOR 1875.
Chompio" american Comic Paper

Illustrated by corps of the hest Ameri-
can artists, and contributed to by the
most popular humorists and satirists Of
the day.
Wild Oats now enters successfully up
on the sixth year Of its existence, and
has become the established humorous and
satirical paper Of the country. 1t was
started and continued the first year as =
monthly, then, to satisfy the demand Of
the public, it was changed to fortni yht.
~. Still continuing it's good work Of
hitting folly as it flies, and showing up
the political and social slams by it's
mastery cartoons and pungent editorials,
it achieved even greater success than
before, and was recognized as thu ablest
and brightest Of its class. Since then we
have yielded still further to the public
demand, and now publish Wild Oats
weekly! 1t has literally grown into it's
present shape Oh 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 Bcllew, Thomas Worth Hopkins,
Wales, Shelton, Wolf, Jump, Keettels,
Stuckharlt, Day, Poland, and several
others who are yet known to fame.
In its literary departments Wild Oats
will. as it always has, stand alone and
unapproach:sble. At least one first-class
serial story will always be found in its
pages, by the best humorous, satirical,
and character writer's in the United
States; while its sketches and squihs
will be sparkling, orr ginal and pointed.
Wild Oats will be tirst-class iu 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 can offend the most fas-
tidiOus.
