A new brakeman was making his first run over the road at night and waa standing in the center of the car. grimly clutching the seats to keep erect. Suddenly the train struck a ■50 Kern, the brakeman ran for the ddor. "Jump for your lives," he shouted. "She’s off the track!" Remarks w flona or me belt.

"The last time you operated n me for $350; now you charge f.*r an operation that wasn’t any more dif ficult than the first." ”1 know,", replied the surgeon. "But you must remember that I operatnl :«» ’save your life, and the cost of llvlnj has gone up.” The Evening Newspaper A canvass of .135 depart ment stores in cities of more than 75,000 population elic ited from 10‘2 the unequivo cal opinion that the evening newspaper is a better adver tising medium than the new*- paper published in the morn ing. The reason ia plain to see. Six dava of nvery week the morning paper is read by people on their way to their offices, and either left in the street car or tossed to one aide in the _ office. The evening paper is ear ned home. The family read* it. Ita contents are likely to be the subeet of dinner- table discussion. When her day’s household labor n ended, the wife aits down with the evening paper to rend the news and searen the advertisements for bar gains. The morning paper is » sort of casual caller. The evening paper is a visitor, a friend,counselor and com panion. Ita influence is fa* stronger with ita reader* than the influence ot the lias- tilv-aeanned morning paper- Tliat ia- why it produces so ranch better reaulta for tn* advertiser.
