WEEKLY TRIBUNE "
OF
November 4, 1896.

Public interest will steadily increase,
and the disappointment of the men
whose votes turned the scale at the last
election, with the results under the
administration they elected, will make
the campaign the most intensely ex
citing in the history of the country.
The NEW YORK WEEKLY TRIBUNE,
the leading Republican family news
paper of the United States, will publish
all the political news of the day, inter'
esling to every American citizen, re
gardless of party affiliations.
Also general news in attractive form,
foreign correspondence covering the
news of the world, an agricultural de-
partment second to none in the coun-
| try, market reports which are recognized
authority, fascinating short stories com
plete in each number, the cream of the
humorous papers, foreign and domestic
with their best comic pictures, fashion
plates and elaborate descriptions o.
womau's attire, with varied and at
tractive department of household in
terest. The NEW YORK WEEKLY
TRIBUNE is an ideal family paper, will
a circulation larger than that of any
other weekly publication in the country
issued from the Office of daily. Large
changes are being made in its details
tending to give it greater life ant
variety, and especially more interestin!
to the women and young people of tn
household.

A Bright Saying.

"Cute" expression of a little three
to-four-year- son of one of the Bos-
ton letter carriers: He has great love
for his father, who seldom Furnishes
him, and rather contemptuous dislike
for his mother, who occasionally spanks
him. One day, wanting to get square
with her and show her how much he
thought his father superior to her, he
said: " Mamma, don't papa look nice
when he is dressed up. He is fipe-
looking man when be has his best
clothes on" Then, thinking it was
rather hard to give his father all the
praise, and to soothe her wounded feel
ings. he added, " But, mamma, you're
the dandy spankerW
