Smith's Magazine

[1] Created for the "John Smiths" of the world, Theodore Dreiser was its initial editor; after a year, he moved to Broadway Magazine.

[2] By the time Dreiser departed, the magazine had a circulation of 125,000.

[4][5][6] Originally a story magazine directed at the general public, it later focused on a female audience.

When the magazine ended its run, Street & Smith merged it and its mainly female readership into the newer, eventually even more successful Love Story Magazine.

Smith's was the first magazine to publish author Ben Ames Williams, in July 1915.
