A SPLENDID SUCCESS.
Mr.. Munsey's Boston journal Has jumped
Into Popular Favor.

The splendid success which Mr.. Mum
sey is making with the Boston journal
is only the natural result of his infusion
OF life and spirit into it's columns. Every
department of the paper has been made
more attractive, and added to this the
establishment of features entirely new
to Boston newspapers. The daily social
column contains the news of society in
the principal cities told in terse para
graphs, the financial pages, both morn
ing and evening, are models of their
kind, and the editorial pages, entirely
different in the morning and evening
editions, are bright and crisp, though at
the same time dignifed. The new Jour.
nal deserves the progress which it is
making in Boston and throughout New
ENGLAND
