And George gave up wrestling. That is, Ernest gave up for him, Ernest was in George's corner at the time. At the end of the bout he said: “Chorge, as a wrestler ve are cheeses. Ve vill nod wrestle any more.” eorge, advised by admiring friends, wanted to becc a “white hope.” He can demonstrate any time that he can strike an 1,800-pound blow, which is 200 pounds better than Jeffries could do at his best.

Witness the evening papers in New York, Chicago, Cincin- nati, St. Louis, and other large cities. It is so in Seatttle. The reason for this is that the evening paper is the family paper. It is read by the entire family. Every paper goes into the home, whether bought on the street or delivered at the house. Here it is read by the buyer—the housewife—who then plans the morrow’s shopping. This is the kind of circulation that pays—no other CAN or DOES pay as well. Does your ad appear in The Star, Mr. Advertiser? The Star’s advertising rates are lower per thou- sand circulation than the rates of any other Seattle daily newspaper. Advertisers who use all of the other papers say results from The Star are most satisfactory. Over 40,000 Copies Sold Daily
