The most widely circulated “weekly’ newspaper in America is the Thrice-a- Week edition of The New York World, and with the Presidential campaign now at hand you cannot do without it. Here are some of the reasons why it is easily the leader in dollar a year jour- nalism. It is issued every other day, and is to all purposes a daily. very week each subseriber receives 18 pages, and often during the “busy” season 24 pages each week. The price is only $1.00 per year.

Most applications received by the officials of the Pittsburg lines are turn- ed vver to the heads of departments, where they are placed on file,and when a vacancy occurs the applications are considered in the order they are re- ceived.
