"PUBLICK OCCURRENCES" THAT ARE MAKING HISTORY

An important department in THE SATURDAY EVENING POST, a weekly magazine founded by Benjamin Franklin in 1728.

It will give the story of important current events the world over in a condensed form. It will explain and interpret; it will throw light on many puzzling questions, on the meaning and relations of events that come to the general reader. The newspapers do not usually tell the beginnings of national and international troubles--there are usually "missing links" in their story. These lapses the Post will fill out.

"SPIRITED REMARKS"
A strong editorial page. There are not many of them in the country--clever, vigorous, striking editorials from an individual point of view. The best writers have been secured to write regularly for the Post editorial page, which will be made one of its strongest features.

SHORT STORIES AND SKETCHES
Nearly one-half of each issue of the Post will be given to fiction. The stories will be selected wholly for their interest, variety and literary value, and not becau7se of the name or fame of the author. Every story will be fully illustrated by the Post's artists.

THE SATURDAY EVENING POST as it is To-day

A good magazine is a good newspaper in a dress suit. It should have all the brightness, interest, enterprise and variety of the newspaper, with the dignity, refinement and poise of the magazine. The Saturday Evening Post, the oldest periodical in America, is a high-grade illustrated weekly magazine, equal in tone and character to the best of the monthlies.

IT WILL BE MAILED TO ANY ADDRESS ON TRIAL, FROM NOW TO JANUARY 1, 1899, ON RECEIPT OF ONLY TEN CENTS (THE REGULAR SUBSCRIPTION PRICE IS $2.50 PER YEAR)
