Looks like the Tribune’s toner cartridge was running low when they printed this edition. ;-)

Google has a feature where you can browse old newspapers, it’s quite amazing to see the difference in reporting. Also just plain neat to see stuff from a different time.

Thanks -- really cool! I always enjoy reading the advertisements as much as the news in old papers. Advertising has come a long way. Ad copywriters in 1897 sure had a way with words. Don Draper hadn't been born yet...

I’m impressed! You read to the very last line. Good point — Dr. Pierce didn’t make enough of his Favorite Prescription to cure HRH of her gripe.

Hillary takes five. That’s why she fell down.
