has the largest circulation of any
newspaper on the western hemisphere.
Only few months ago large news
paper directory questioned the claim
of circulation made by The Constitu-
tion and put up forfeit OF 500 that
it could be disproved that 1T had more
than 100, 900 circulation. The Con-
stitution promptly accepted the offer
and submitted its books TO the repre-
sentative of the firm. Mr. George T.
Rowell, publisher of the newspaper
directory, acknowledged his error pub
licly and paid the forfeit.

During the war with Spain, which
has Just been brought to close, the
reports of no newspaper in the south
could compare with its news presenta-
tion from the front. Its special staff
representative sailed with the army

and Of the 100 correspondents who
went to Cuba, he was one of only sew
en- who remained to see the flag hoist
ed over the public Buildings in SANTA
go. Its special representative also ac-
companied the fleet in the Caribbean
sea, and its Washington special ser
vice covered every detail of the impor-
tant war reports originating at the

Every man should take his county
newspaper before anything else, and
next to this he should take a good
general newspaper, such as The Con-
stitution. His county paper gives
him the local home news, which is
not supplied by a newspaper furnish
ing the general news from all parts of
the country and from all over the
world. Before man seeks informa-
tion from outside, he should first feel
sure that he is being kept posted on
what is going on at home. That is
why he should take his county paper
first. When. however, the opportun-
ity is offered to get the best weekly
newspaper in this country with your
home paper, the inducement is such
as to elicit prompt response from oul
readers.
We will be glad to receive clubbing

wish to take The Constitution also
we will be glad to receive subscrip
tions to the latter and forward them
