Dr. Longacre hands us a copy of
the Manilla (P. I.) Times, a weekly ;
newspaper of magazine shape, the
product of an old Omaha boy, Geo.
Seiner, who is the pioneer newspaper
man of the Phillipine Islands. It Is
said Mr. Seiner lias made a mint of
money out of its publication and can
show his prosperity to the extent of
a couple of hundreds of thousands of
dollars as a result. That’s pretty
good and comes nearly up to the
average Nebraska country newspaper
man's bank account. Anyway, the
magazine-newspaper is an up-to-date
publication and shows prosperity on
its face.
The many friends of Will Odendahl,
Jr., will regret that his newspaper
venture at Cortez, Colo., cost him a
little bunch of money, for which he
received a bunch of experience in
return. He purchased an interest
from the ostensible owner, failing to
take necessary papers in regard to the
deal, and it turned out the ostensible
owner himself had purchased the
paper on wind, which failed to satis
fy the owner in fee simple of the
plant, who took it back and Will
having nothing to show for his
money received an undesirable lemon.
It's too bad, but may prove a valu
able lesson in the school of experience
for our young friend. We understand
at present Will and his wife are in
Denver, where he is employed in a
garage.

THE CALL OF THE COAST
The Seattle Exposition invites you. The Pacific Coast
country, in the development of its marvelons civilization,
solicits you to journey through that land. The melting snow
of the mountains is a magical resource, shaped to ihe genius
of electircal and horticultural wizards; those mighty forests
that are the last of their kind left standing in this country;
there are no such orchards, orange groves or floral landscapes
in the world—nor have there ever been. On a tour of the
Coast you pass through an empire, where the romance of the
Spanish past has been merged v\ith tuc human activities of
the new West.
See your own country; see the with its fast grow
ing wealth, population and intv..,, ;nab:e cities, and learn
what a future it may offer to your sous; this five thousand
mile journey is a broad education. 1909 offers much to
tempt you.
