AFTERNOON NEwsP APERs.

Geo. P. Rowen, of New York
City, who has devoted many years
of his life to the publication of
newspaper directories and to the
study of circulation and advertis-
ing mediums, has at last been forced
to the conclusion that the after
noon newspaper has outstripped its
morning contemporary. What he
says in this connection will interest
the shrewdest advertisers every
where.
eyes, the afternoon papers are
making marvellous progress, says
Mr.. Rowell in an interview. "Ev-
erywhere they are in the lead. And
let me say in preface that l am an
old-fashioned man and was reared
in the old idea, which l still hold
for that matter, that the morning
papers are, as a rule, the best,
What 1 say in afternoon papers has
been pounded into me by cold facts
against all my prejudices.
"The strongest argument in
favor of the afternoon paper is that
it prints today's news today, while
the morning paper holds it ever
until tomorrow. News, like milk,
must be had fresh, else it is sour
and stale. A morning paper which
reprints what the evening press
made common knowledge the day
before will naturally fall behind.
Therein lies the strength of the
evening papers and the weakness of
the morning journals.
Another point is that the after
noon papers are read more closely
by the women than their morning
rivals. There is no doubt of that
statement, and the fact is, of
course, important to advertisers
who want to lay their announce
ments before women. The evening
papers are acquiring wonderful
prestige, and their value as adver-
tising medium is increasing, as wise
advertising men are becoming
aware. The Chicago News, an af
ternoon paper, in 1899 published
more advertising than any other
newspaper in the world which tells
the truth about its circulation or
gives advertisers opportunities of
verifying statements of circulation.
In New York the Evening Journal
has larger circulation than the
Morning Journal, and the Evening
World has a larger circulation than
the Morning World. This is a
proud showing for the afternoon
papers. In most large cities the
situation is the same. For instance
on the Pacific Coast, in Spokane
the best known paper is published
in the morning, but an evening pa
per there has as large circulation;
in Seattle an evening paper prints
as many copies as any morning
paper in the city, and in Portland,
where the Oregonian has controlled
the field for many years, there is an
evening paper which has as large a
number of readers as its older con-
temporary.
GAS | said before, however, was
bred up to respect and revere the
morning papers, and these praises
of the evening papers express con-
victions which | very reluctantly
admitted to my mind And I say
again that the mightiest argument
in advocacy of the afternoon journ-
ais is that they publish the news on
the day when events occur, not the
day after"

Carnival Queen Contest.

One of the leading features of
the coming street fair is the Flower
parade, and as the leading honor in
this is determined solely by popular
vote, the interest in the voting
contest increases as the time ap.
proaches. AS the people begin to
realize their opportunities to sup
port their favorites the contest
promises to be very interesting.
Already several candidates have
drawn quite number of votes, but
new ones entering promise to draw
their share. In Miss Parkins' en-
trance into this contest yesterday
we see a chance for her to make it
close for some of the other candi-
dates, for her numerous friends are
working hard in her behalf. AS
there only remains ten days in
which to decide this affair, every
one should come to the support of
his friend without delay.

Paper Carpets In Korea.

Carpets in Korea are not of as little
moment as are carpets here. They are
handed down in families as heirlooms
from generation to generation to be-
come darkened and subdued with age.
They are rugs always and are made of
paper by peculiar process. In ap-
pearance they are much like the lac
quered boxes which come from Japan
and which are so much used as hand
kerchief boxes" said the old time
American consul In Korea. THE ma
tives always take off their sandals
when they enter the house, and that
fact accounts largely for the long life
of the rugs. When | was there, how
ever, / shocked the feelings of every
one by wearing my shoes, carpets or
no carpets, and during my stay / COM
pletely wore out some of those beauti-
full dark colored carpets. They are
about quarter of an inch in thickness

GargIing the Throat.

If one is to really do good by gar
gling--that is, if one is to insure that
the fluid shall reach the posterior wall
of the pharynX-the nose must be held
and the head must be well thrown
back while performing the gargling
process. BY gargling in the usual way
only the anterior surface of the uvula
and soft palate and the base of the
tongue are reached. But by holding
the nose and throwing the head well
back when gargling the medicament
reaches every surface of the pharynx
very effectively.
The comparative value of the two
methods can be tested by painting the
posterior surface Of the pharynX care
fully with strong solution of methy-
lene blue and then letting the patient
gargle with water ip the usual way,
when ii will be found that the water
elected will be clear and unstained;
then let him gargle again, holding the
nose and throwing his head well back,
when the elected fluid will be found
stained, and an inspection of the
pharynX will show that the blue has
been washed away.
This is Il thing worth remembering,
for many observers have maintained
that garglng is not only useless as n
method Of medication, but is quite in
effectual even as a means of cleansing
the pharynX. Medical Jour

Thought They Were Dogs.

Summer in Dawson City is delightful
and even the winters, say those who
have stald there in that season, are
glorious. Many are the stories told
about the wondrous beauties of the
trail over the ice and the White pass,
where even women have gone, han
ding their dogs from day to day as
the men handled theirs. Every man
and woman there has a story, all in
teresting and some thrilling.
II used to like to start out first in the
morning" said Detroit woman. "Once,
as l hurried my dogs down the trail In
the gray dawn, saw three stray ami
mails romping on the way. Now, II
you catch up with a stray dog on the
trail, he is yours; so, my heart flutter-
ing with JOY, / began whistling TO the
half wild creatures.
"At first they paid no attention to
me, but kept romping and leap frog
ging up and down the train. | slowed
up my team and put myself in front,
the better to make my peace with the
renegades.
"When we had come within 100 yards
of them, they stopped playing, sat
down and stared at us. l whistled
again, and they all ran. How foolish
l felt when it suddenly dawned on me
that had been trying to harness three
wild wolves" York Independent.

The history of grip" or influenza.
can only be traced back, with any GER
tainty, for 800 years. Perhaps its home
is in Russia. 1t retains certain broad
characteristics which make IL recop-
nizable even under such odd names as
the gentle correction" and the new
delight" A curious description of IL
under the name of "coqueluche" is
found In the diary of Pierre de LES
toile in the time of Henry III of
France, as follows:
"The coqueluche at Paris, year 1880.
From the I'd day to the Sth day of
June there fell sick at Paris 10000
persons of an illness having the form
of rheum or eatarrh, which they call
the 'coqueluche.' This illness seizes
you with n pain in the head, stomach
and loins and lassitude throughout
the body, and it prosecuted the whole
kingdom OF France while the year last
ed, so that once having come hardly
anybody in town or village or house
escaped.
"The best remedy the doctors found
was TO make the sick abstain from
wine. TO some they ordered bleeding
and rhubarb, for others cassia, and
finally they found II best to keep the
sick in bed and allow them little to eat
and drink. They say Mt Paris that of
this coqueluche' there were dead at
Rome in less than three months, more
than 10000 persons"
