should be beyond question.
Third—A helpful paper, - one that
tells the housewite of home life,
thoughts and experiences, and
keeps her in touch with social
usage and fashion.
Fourth—A paper abounding in
original character sketches, bright
sayings, unctuous humor and
Fifth—it should conta’n good sto¬
ries and pleasing matter for
young people, that the children
may friend. always regard the paper as a
Sixth—Literary selections and
stores suitable for 'older people
should be given, for, they too,
like to enjoy a leisure hour.
Seventh—In short, it should be a
weekly good all-round family shall journal, bring a
visitor which
refreshment and pleasure to every
member of the household.
