A man to be a Christian must be a

Greeting and Congenial Salutations
from Ibe Detroit Free Press.
From tlie unlimited words of praise that have
been bestowed upon it, the conclusion fixed that the
Detroit Frte Press is the most popular journal in
existence. Not that it has the greatest cirenlaUon—
though for that matter few papersihave a more ex
tended one—but that the most profound affection
for it exists among those ; who read and know its
merits.^
Certain is it that no journal contains so many at
tractive and: original features. ’ . .
Enjoyable in the lijhest degree, its tone is the
purest, its literary standard the most excellent.
It combines to a surprising extent in its wcll-fiU-
cd pages the grace,.learnin g, wit, hnmor, versatility
and genius of the American people.
Unique among newspapers', Sprightly aDd rcada
hie in every portion—it is edited with so much
tact, intelligence anchease, that readers of everj
class find it, above all others, the one that satis-
fieel -
Varied are its departments and its contents—the
whole a most judicious combination. If one may
liken intellectual to material things its field of sto
ry, poetry, correspondence, anecdote, wit, humor
sentiment, history, belies letters, knowledge in its
illimited extent—may be compared to a well order
