COCK WAS J— cess Not Due fo Luck, New York, Sept. .—John R. Brad- ley, the financial backer of Dr. Fred erick A. Cook, took pains to explain that the Brooklyn explorer’s success in reaching the North pole was not so much the result of chance as the opin- fons of several polar experts would indicate, “This was no haphazard expedi tion,” he said, “no intensifled Arctic joy ride undertaken on nerve. We went about our preparations for this accompaniment, but every imaginable contingency had been provided for. misfortunes of other men who had tried for the pole, hoping to benefit by their erro and we certainly bene fitted by their examples. “I am not going to tell what the cost was, but I'll tell you this much: le item of the equipment was 5,000 gallons of gasoline and another was two barrels of gumdrops. An Esquimaux will travel thirty miles for a gumdrop. His sweet tooth is the sweetest in the world. “Now Cook has as much nerve as any man in the world, I guess; but he had something besides nerve to carry him throngh. I'm not trying to take any of the credit; but I want to say that he had the right kind of an out- fit to take him through. Cook will prove to the satisfaction of every fair mind that he has done exactly what he says he did.” REACHES TS LAST STAGES Federal Investigation of Pressed Steel Car Company Plant.

Blindfold Buyi The man who rushes blindly into the first yard he comes to when he buys lumber will never get round shouldered carrying the money he saves by such tactics. Those who reason that all lumber is alike beeause it looks alike, have several more guesses coming. There’s as much difference in lumber as there is in shoes or clothes, and you don't buy those with your eyes shut, do you? As lumber is supposed to last a long time, quality should be the first consideration in buying. Your money talks here, of course, but what you get for your money, talks more yet, Our rule of quality first—then price—satisfaction always—doesn't | leave any chance of blindfold lumber buying at this yard.
