WONDERFUL VALUE.
All Canadians are proud of the won-
derful success of the Family Ilerald
and Weekly Star of Montreal. Few
homes in Canada will be found with-
out it to -day and every home is the
better for receiving it. It is a week-
ly newspaper, family magazine and
agricultural journal, all three in one,
and each one worth what they ask for
the whole combination. Our readers
should all have their local paper. but
no fatuity can well afford to be with-
out "The Family herald and Weekly
Star." It is simply Marvellous what
a vast amount one gets for a dollar
a year, "The Family Herald and
1Veekly Star" is looked upon as a
clean family paper in eyery respect.
