LITERARY MEAT AND ADVERTISING BREAD

Let consider average magazine of the so- called popular sort. Someone defines it follows:
 "A magazine is q small body of literature, trely surrounded by advertising In this respect. it resembles a railroad han, sandwich with the ad Vertising bread very thick and the literary in especially thin slices The situation is well summarized, when Dooey says: "Hinnesy mon, last night my way home from wurruk I bought of them popular magazines eXpectin after l had eaten supper and put slippers and lighted pipe, to sit down for quiet aven's enjoyment locking the advertisements, and do you know, mon, 25 per cent of the dommed thing was just nothing but heraci,oor''
 The magazine frequently gives great prom hence to pictures of actresses-doubtless by favor able arrangements with their managers. With these may appear an article with aIliterative title How Placid Phiadelphia's Putrdity Purged; Why Denver Went the Devil Then may follow article explaining how reporter Willy Willie under 'Jawn Dee's' window and by making noise like dividend, secured interview with him.
