Dave, smiling, bent forward to hear what she said. Just then came the flash, and the photographer, his work finished for the time, gathered his paraphernalia together and left. The music recommenced and the dancing proceeded. Three weeks later that photograph was reproduced as a double-page illustration in one of the prominent pictorial weeklies.
The North Star, in size, typography, and interest, compared favorably with the other weeklies of the day, and lived for seventeen years. It had, however, its "ups and downs." At one time the editor had mortgaged his house to pay the running expenses; but friends came to his aid, his debts were paid, and the circulation of the paper doubled.
Their literature, their Press, turns all on that; immense illustrated weeklies of unsurpassed magnificence guide them in domestic architecture, in the art of owning a garden, in the achievement of the sumptuous in motor-cars, in an elaborate sporting equipment, in the purchase and control of their estates, in travel and stupendous hotels. Once they begin to move they go far and fast.
But this may be said. If the old literary omnibus is to continue, as it deserves, to hold the center of the roadway, then it must be driven with some vigor of the intellect to match the vigor of news which has carried its cheaper contemporary fast and far.

His friends came wholly from The Polite World which so adorns the illustrated weeklies.
Paul obeyed, and then betook himself to the timber-grove, where he sat rapt into meditations on the Vision. He had read whatever came within his reach, good, bad, or indifferent, and his conscious thoughts were always a patchwork of phrases. When he was put to mind the shop he read the penny weeklies.
A printer and stationer was compelled by usage to supply papers; and besides, paper subscribers served a purpose as a nucleus of general business. As with the "British Mechanics," so with seventeen other weeklies. The daily papers were fewer, but the accountancy they caused was even more elaborate.
Latz liked her so, with her fragrantly coiffured head, scarcely gray, back against his shoulder and with his newspapers Wall Street journals and the comic weeklies which he liked to read would sit an entire evening thus, moving only when his joints rebelled, and his pipe smoke carefully directed away from her face.
