ing throughout tho world with our
troops operating in tho Philippines and
tho great Presidential campaign too at
hand its value is further increased.
Tho motto of The TmnoK-A-WKKK
World Is improvement. It strives each
year to bo bettor than it wob tho year
before and public confidence in it is
shown by tho fact that it now circulates
more than twico aB many papers overy
week ns any other newspaper not a
dally published In America.
We offer tills unequaled uowspapor
