NEW ATTRACTIONS. .s 81


The publishers of the SATURDAY EVEN
ING Posr feel constrained TO make again
their Acknowledgements to the reading pub
llc forsthe liberal support which theirpape
receives 10 show that they are not un-
mindful OF the return which such patronage
requires, it would be entirely sufficient to
refer the reader to the established character
of


THE FIRESIDE FRIEND

sectarianism in our religion, but print and
