SiRVES OBSERVES. A Scorcher About Souse of Our CrUOCt GrJrtis. WE always.knew we had some pretty lively (to put ii wildly) girls in town, but the idea that any of them should go as far as the following note shows, never entered our minds. i.ies*- gills one would think thee were ladies, that a th night of vice had never entered their minds. Can it be pis ide that a a her and moth- • r;-. loving care should be thus trampled upon, that the pride of their dear's should become .so low and maudlin, so unci ast as f ' originate the following: M ;i:,s and Mists and myself are -.onu io Ind .....i; the last of this week, i an i voii.e .ii. atidMr. to cow. e down a n.ij or so aiter wv have, as to ft void .•.uspirion.

Now what do you think of that. We do not know whether the girls did go down to Indianapolis or not. If they did you can imagine what followed. Father and mothers,take our advice, kindly given. Your daughters may appear to you to be the ipersonilicated of virture, but be careful, very careful, they do things behind your back of which you would never dream. They may tell you that they will spend the night at some girl friends house, but they don’t mention whom they meet before they get there. They have more than one excuse to get away from home, which seems very plausible to the gullible mothers and fathers. Don’t be fooled any longer. If you regard virture as a blessing, keep your daughters in off the streets at night. Some may read this and say that “Observer is going too far. I will trust my girls. When they tell mo any! king, I believe them and they will not abuse my confidence.” That is all very true. Some parents are blessed with children who will notabuse their confidence. But you can’t tell what will happen. Company causes a great influence. Be on the safe side, take our advice, look after your daughters more closely and you will never regret it, never.

A EBundi cd Ton Hagazijao Order. An event in periodical literature, ’not without in significance to the general public as showing the 'growth of the reading classes, was the receipt on the 9th of [November by The Cosmopolitan I Magazine of the order given beI low. A single order from a news company fur one hundred tons of magazines! I mat is almost an ' event in the history of the world. A like order lias never before been made, and if past ratios be maintained it means considerably more than half a million circulation for the December Cosi inopolitan. Yet, when the list of authors and artists in the December number is examined, one is not so much surprised. It contains the only known unpublished manuscript of DeMaupassant, illustrated by Vierge, perhaps the most famous of European illustrators; After the World's Fair, by Paul Bourget, John J. Ingalls, William Dean Howells, Lyman J. Gage. Arthur Sheburne Hardy, Mark Twain, Robert Grant and others nearly as famous, and nearly two hundred illustrations, to which the following artists contribute: Hopkinson Smith, Kemble, Harry Fen, F. O. Small, Attwood, Henckel, Dan Beard, Reinhart and Remington. Think of having the World’s Fair done by such expensive men as Howells, Mark Twain and Paul Bourget, and sending such artists as Charles S. Reinhart to Chicago for a single number of a magazine to be sold for only 15 cents, or by subscription 12.} cents. A A book- publisher, preparing such a book would not dare incur these’expenses short of $5.00 a copy. Is it not a revolution that is an improvement upon old methods a revolution of vast importance to the reading publi •.? The order to which reference is made reads as follows: “Publisher Cosmopolitan. Dear Sir:—Of the 200,00 ) copies of December number to be sent us, please send as follows: 172,65) copies regular edition, 27,25 ) copies R. R. edition. Yours respectfully, The American News Company.” We will send the People’s Pilot and The Cosmopolitan, one yeai for $2.25. Send in your name. Subscribe for the People’s Pilot, only One Dollar a year.
