There are the daily Home Pages --the daily instalment of a good story -the Social and Personal columns -the illustrated daily Fashion Hints. But the "tar's" strongest appeal to the wide-awake woman is the unusually interesting way in which it presents the news of all the world, day by day. There is not a dry line in it --yet it is not sensational or in any way "yellow." Just good, clean, wholesome, well-written accounts of everything that is going on that's worth reading about.
