SUNDAY EVENING PAPER.

Frank A. Munsey has demonstrated
that the SUNDAY evening newspaper is
success. For year he has been
publishing Sunday evening edition of
The Washington Times. For shorter
period he has sent out similar issues of
The Philadelphia Times and The Bal
timore News.
All three. publications have won out
in popular favor-according to recent
announcements. They have grown
rapidly in circulation and as advertis-
ing mediums. Many news scoops have
been made and the patrons are served
every twenty four hours with fresh
news matters.
The opposition the publisher first en-
countered has been overcome and the
Sunday evening paper appears to have
been accepted as readily as the Sunday
morning publication.
