FAVORITE HOME PAPER.
Why the Twice-a-Week Republic Has Achieved Such Wide
 Popularity.

Established for nearly cen- tury and read regularly by more than 500,000 persons in the west and southwest, the Twice-a-Week Republic of St. Louis can justly lay claim to that enviable dis tinction, "Favorite Home Pa per-
 It is great because it has al- ways aimed to inform, instruct and entertain it's readers on all matters of public and home in- terest. In 1904 it will be espe- cially interesting and valuable. Here are some reasons why you should subscribe for it:
 This is campaign year and you will want to be informed of the movements of party leaders, re- ports of the great national and state conventions, the progress of the campaign, reports of the election, etc.
 You will want to know all about the Worlds Fair, to be held in St. Louis from April 30 to December l, 1904.
 You will be interested in and kept well informed by the farm visitor, regular supplement of the paper, prepared especially for the farmer and his family.
 You will want to know what the world is doing in every line of activity, and through the un- surpassed news and special ser vice of the twice-a-week Repub- lie you will not be disappointed.
 In short sketches, choice bits of fiction, articles of interest to women, children and household suggestions the Twice-a-Week Republic easily leads among the weeklies of the great West.
 If you want the Twice-a-Week Republic sent to your address, order it at once direct from the office at St. Louis, Mo-, or through your local newsdealer. It costs only S1 year.
