A Growing Newspaper.

With the revival of business in Hat
tiesburg and the Hattiesburg district,
the Daily News has been materially i'm
proved. New features have been add
ed from day to day and the editorial
force has redoubled it's efforts to give
the citizens of this community a pub
LEGATION second to none in the State.
The result has been most graft
flying.
In fact the circulation of the Daily
News has almost doubled in less than
six weeks, a record that is without a
parallel in the history of Mississippi
Journalism. Hundreds of these new
subscribers have come to us unsolf-
cited which is all the more crafty
ing anu riio- fact that numbers OF volun-
tary subscriptions have been received
from the smaller tomns tributary to
the city indicates that the popularity
of the paper is not confined to Hat
tiesburg alone.
The Daily News can now assert with
out fear of contradiction that it goes
each afternoon into more homes in the
Hattiesburg district than any other
two newspapers combined.
This is of little interest to subscrib
ers, but it means much to advertisers
who desire to reach the buying public
in this territory. To these the books
of the office are open and we guaran
tee to them larger daily circulation
than any other publication in Soutl
Mississippi, else we will carry theil
advertising without charge.
