It is over a quarter of a century since the Family Herald and. Weekly Star of Mont- real was established and it certainly grows better with age. During the past eight months it has rnatie greater strideS towards perfection than during any five years of its history. Weil may it astoniah American publishers that the Family Ileac1 and Weekly Star can give so much for a dollar a year. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the most welcomed, while it is absolutely the most entertaining visitor that collies to tens of thousands of Canadian Homes. The Family Heral and Weekly Star has passed the point where other publishers might be Jealons of it, because it is emphatically the leader and without a cOalpetitor. , No home pan be chill or unthrifty where thp Family Herald and Weekly Star is taken. All 'Canadian publishers wish it well, for it de- serves it, end we see that only a dollar a year secures it and its beautiful premium, The Orphan's Prayer." 111.11=20=2.61, Canadian Apples in England.
