Truth (Canada)

Country: Canada

Subtitled "A Weekly Magazine of Current Literature", the magazine features a mix of short and medium-length Canadian and international news (some identified by source), jokes and puns and amusing anecdotes, short essays about politics, installments of four or five novels, and lots of ads (including one for the Great Ottoman Blood Remedy). Sort of a late Victorian Canadian READER'S DIGEST.

Also known for a time as "Truth for the People".

Truth (US)

Country: US

Initially published as a news and gossip weekyl, Truth became a humor magazine a la Puck and Judge with brilliant colour lithograph cartoons. It was one of the earliest magazine to carry comic strips (first appearance of "The Yellow Kid" in #372, 2-Jun-1894). In 1893 the magazine's printer gained a controlling interest in the magazine and changed the focus to a more serious and artistic bent.
