One night around the camp
fire-if they have camp fires
any more-he made a bet
that he could walk $4,000
miles in seven years, through
every continent of the earth,
making his living as he went,
without begging, borrowing
or stealing.
From that time-in May,
1oO5-he had legged" it
through many lands, China,
Corea, Manchuria, Siberia,
Russia, Austria, Germany,
Switzerland, France, England
ana Canada,
In April, 1909, ahead of his
schedule, he was bound east
from Seattle, across the Uni
ted States-walking on the
roadbed of the Northern
Pacific Railway Company.
Near Miles City, Montana,
he met another traveller, who,
also on a wager was walking
west from St. Paul to Seattle,
and the two compared notes
and experiences as Peary and
Cook might have done had
they met at the North Pole.
To their mutual surprise,
they discovered that they
were both wearing the. Cot
zian Health and Walk
Easy" Shoe. The west
bound traveller had got his in
St. Paul before starting, and
King, his in Spokane, on the
recommendation of a local
dealer.
When King reached St.
Paul, on the 21st of June,
1909, with his feet and his
shoes in good condition, he
gave the shoes to c. Gotzian
& Co., their maker, with an
affidavit as to these facts. in
token of his appreciation.

THE EVENING NEWSPAPER.
Random Thoughts on the Gentle Art Of
ADVERTISING.

hanGpm Lhou1nrs on me Gentle Art Of
Advertising.
The careful observer of events in
newspaperdom cannot but be impress
ed with the manner in which the even
ing newspaper is outstripping its
morning competitors in the race for
supremacy. 1t is only comparatively
few years since the influential papers
Of the country were morning editions;
now the ones which WELD the sceptre
are published in the latter part Of the
day.
Like all processes OF progress this is
natural and to be expected. In the
old days when mail facilities were un-
developed; where trains were few and
the rural mail carrier as he is in the
up to date present was unknown, the
evening paper was confined almost ex-
clusively to a narrow circle surcum-
scribed by the territory which could
be reached through it's carrier system
or newsbo.-s on the streets.
Now, with trains travelling at a high
rate of speed and at frequent inter
walls; with the rural service brought up
to a high state of efficiency the even
paper is on the spot everywhere. The
people want news. while it is news:
the evening paper brings it to them
hot off the wires IL it's an outside
happening; right after it occurs II its
a local event. News while it is news
is the slogan OF the evening newspa-
per; the morning papers have sue
eumbed to the enivitable.
2 Advertising is, or should be a part
OF the best news OF the day. II It's
rightly planned and written II will be
just as absorbing in it's interest as any
other local news matter If it's placed
in the evening newspaper it will not
only be seen, 1t will be read and dis
cussed; it's offerings weighed in the
family consultations with resultant
profit to the advertiser.
When the careful business man Of
today is planning his publicity ne will
take into consideration these facts
He will see that regardless OF how
much farther he may want to 20 in
his expenditures for advertising the
first consideration is to have plenty
Of provision is made for liberal space
In the evening newspaper. He will
then travel along the line Of least re-
sistance in creating business.
