UDe - Sun.
NEW YORK, 1883.

More people have read HE SUN during the year just now passing than ever before since 1t was first printed No other newspaper pub. lished on this side of the earth has been bHught and read ln any year by so many men and women.
 We are credibly informed that people buy read and ike HE SUN for the following req sons, among others:
 Because the news columns present an at tractive form and with the greatest possible accuracy whatever has interest for humankind; the events, the deeds and misdeeds the wis dom: the philosophy, the notable folly, the solld sense, the improving nonsense-all the news of the busiest world at present revolving in space.
 Because people have learned that in it's re- marks concerning persons and affairs THE SUN makes 8 practice of telling them the exact truth to the best of its ability three hun dred ana si1ty-nxe days ID the year, before election as well as after, about the whales as well as the small fish, in the face of dissent as plainly and fearlessly as when supported by general approval. HE SUN has absolutely no our- poses to serve, save the information of it's readers and the furtherance of the common good.
 Because it is everybody's newspaper. No man is so humble that TIE SUN is indifferent to his welfare and his rights. No man is so rich that 1t can allow injustice to be done him. NO man, no association of men, is powerful enough to be exempt from the strict applica- ton of it's principles of the right and wrong
 Because in politics it has fought for dozen years, without intermission and sometimes almost alone among newspapers, the fight that has resulted in the recent overwhelming popular virdict against Robesonsm and for honest government. No matter what party is in power, THE SUN stands and will continue to stand like rock for the interests of the people against the ambition of bosses. the encros ch- ments of monopolists, and the dishonest schemes of public robbers.
 All this is what we are told almost daily by our friends. One man holds that THE SUN is the best religious newspaper ever published because it's Christianity is undiluted with cant Another holds that it IS the best Republican newspaper printed, because it has already whipped half of the rascals out of that party, and Is proceeding against the other half with undiminished vigor. A third believes it to be the best magazine of general literature in ex- 1stence, because it's readers miss nothing worthy of notice that is current in the world of thought, So every friend of THE SUN dis covers one of it's many sides that appeals with particular force to his individual liking.
 If you already know THE SUN, you will ob- serve that in 1883 it is little better than ever before. If you do not already know THE SUN, you will find it to be mirror of all human activity, a storehouse of the choicest products of common sense and imagination, mainstay for the cause of honest government, sentinel for genuine Jeffersonian Democracy, scourge of vic edness of every species, and ap un- commonly good investment for the coming year.
