The best evidence Of the fact that
evening papers are most profitable ad-
vertising mediums is that in Chicago
there are more than twice as many
evening papers sold as there are morn
ing papers, the reason being that peo-
pie have so much more time to read
in the evening. That advertisers un-
derstand and appreciate this in Chi
cago is proved by the large excess of
advertising published in the evening
papers.
To-day Thursday the three leading
evening papers In Chicago carried

this SO that wheelmen will have no reason
to complain if the paths are not fixed up"
Mr.. Sublette went on to say that the
cycle path fund was not only completely
exhausted, but that the city was actually
in debt $1,60185 for work already done.
