to discover a “good thing.” Every month the demand
for THE BOHEMIAN at the news stands in this city

compounded of snappy, unusual short stories, enjoyable
humor, attractive portraits, anecdotes of persons of note,
with clever drawings, and sparkling, illustrated special
articles of the out-of-the-way kind, that the result is a
delightful and peerless entertainer.
