THE DREAMER.
By Thomas Nunan

ny IIVIIIdo
lie used to dream of things he'd do
When grown to be man,
Beguiling boyhood years away
With many an idle plan.
And now, when grown to be a man,
He knows no greater joy
Than dreaming of the things he'd do
If still h were boy.

The Best Known Newspaper in
the United States.
CIRCULATION $4,000.
Popular in Every State.

In many respects the Toledo Blade is
the most remarkable weekly newspaper
published in the United States. 1t is
the only newspaper especially edited
for National circulation. 1t has had the
largest circulation for more years than
any newspaper printed in America.
Furthermore, it is the cheapest news
paper in the world, as will be explained
to any person who will write us for
terms. The News of the World so ar
ranged that busy people can more easily
comprehend, than by reading cumber-
some columns of dailies. All current
topics made plain in each issue by
special editorial matter written from in
ception down to date. The only paper
published especially for people wEo do
or do not read daily newspapers, and
yet thirst for plain facts. That this
kind of a newspaper is popular, is
proven by the fact that the Weekly
Blade now has over 1S5, 900 yearly sub
scribers, and is circulated in all parts
of the u S. In addition to the news,
the Blade publishes short and serial
stories, and many departments of matter
suited to every member of the family.

The world premier magician Kellar,
returns TO this city on Monday, Oct
22nd, at the Majestic Theater. All his
wonderful nev illusions, and an entire
ly new program Of small magic will be
given here. Kellar after years of pains
taking energy, will give his latest
masterpiece, The Sailor, The Witch
and the Enchanted Monkey, a mystical
deception that bewilders the spectator,
by the seeming incongruity of the
marvellous disappearance of the various
characters, some of them being project
ed through space in twipkling. This
weird surprise is only one of the many
difficult feats that Kellar will perform
during his engagement here, and it is
promised that even all of his previous
efforts have been eclipsed
