man" is not at home. No, the female
shopper does not get her advertising
knowledge from the morning paper.
Neither does the business man. AL
most invariably he reads II only cur
sorily, usually for the late telegraph
news alone. He has read the local
news and half the telegraph news in
the evening paper the night before.
For this reason he seldom turns over
all the pages of the morning paper
with the thoroughness with which
one reads book. His interest In the
morning paper invariably lags as
soon as he has passed the first page.
The Paducah sun., 1905-08-09
THE AFTERNOON PAPER.

(The Columbia, Mass, Citizen.)
1t is quite natural that newspapers
occupying the morning field should
claim superior advantages for the
morning paper and that those occu-
pying the evening field should deny
this claim and assert them in their
own behalf. Yet we believe that any
unprejudiced jury would find ver-
dict in favor of the evening newspa-
per under almost any conditions.
The only advantage the morning
paper can claim is that II is occa
sionally possible for its circulation
TO cover a wider territory than that
of the evening paper. But while this
is possible, it is seldom the case for
two reasons: First, the stronger de-
mand for evening papers. and sec
ond, the facilities of transportation
which make il possible for the even
ing paper to cover an ample field in
city and country.
But the evening paper possesses
distinct advantages not at all char
acteristic of its morning contempo-
rary. The evening is pre-eminently
the time for reading, and what is
read in the evening hours is much
more likely to be absorbed and re-
membered than the same information
seen during the busy hours of the
day. The evening paper gives the
news of the day of publication,
whereas the morning paper gives the
news of the day previous. The even
ing paper is almost invariably 12
hours ahead of its morning contem-
porary as a purveyor of news. Es-
pecially is this true of local news,
which constitutes one of the mos,
important departments of every
newspaper.
Local news events are recorded in
the daytime, an hundred to one as
compared with the night, and they
appear in the evening paper the day
they occur. The morning paper takes
them as a rehash and usually obtains
them with the aid of a paste pot and
pair of scissors. For all these rea-
sons the average of circulation is in
favor OF the evening newspaper, and
the sphere of its influence is inn
measurably broader than that of the
morning paper.
From the advertisers standpoint
equal advantages lie with the even
ing journalism. The housewife forti-
fies herself for the days shopping
expedition by the perusal of her ev-
ening paper the night before she
starts out. She does not go TO the
morning paper for the desired infor-
nation on account OF three reasons:
First, the chances that there is no
morning paper in her household; |
second, If there is. she could have |
gotten the Information from the ev-
ening papers twelve hours before;
third. in the majority of cases, she
has not the time TO look at newspa-
pers in the morning hours.
Household duties begin to multi
ply. the children have to be prepared |

HIS RICH GIFTS
MAKE TOWN POOR
Half Million Library and Million
Dollar School Are Burdens
on Taxpayers.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service
Methuen, Mass, Jan. 2O.-Edward F.
Searles, once a poor carpenter, but now
the widower Of Mrs. Mark Hopkins,
and who says he has at least 100000
900, has embarrassed this little town
with a gift Of $1,000,00O for high
school building, the finest in the coun-
try, altho there are only eighty-fve
pupils.
AS each new building he gives to the
town requires support, taxation is high,
and the villagers have to scratch to
raise money. But they don t dare to
afront Searles, so they take expensive
and expense entailing gifts without an
audible murmur. The public library,
which cost 100000 and burns more
coal than the rest Of the town put to-
gether, is a specimen of the embarrass-
ment Of riches.
Searles cannot spend his money, as
it accumulates too fast. He lives alone
with servants in castle, which is ex-
pected to be left to the town as a hos
pital when he dies. Then, as one resi-
dent says:
We shall be so rich that we shall
be poverty stricken to keep up appear
ances. Searles means well, but does not
!seem to understand the situation. He
is the same chap today that he was
when, as poor carpenter and dec,
orator, Mrs. Hopkins became infatuated
with him and led him to the altar.
His gifts embarrass us, but we must
take them.
