Thos. Edison has figured out a solu

as gold and silver certificates. He al
so suggests compressing a bushel of

culate it. Good scheme, Mr. Edison
if one gets hungry he can soak his

When catarrh attacks a person of

An Oregonian special under date
of October 9th has this: Cleveland is
getting ready for the issue of gold
bonds, probably S100,000,0)0, either un
der a compromise silver bill or under
authority of the treasury department
already had. Carlisle and Gresham
are of the opinion that the best com
promise that can be made with the sil
ver men is to continue vhe purchase of
2,000,000 ounces of silver per month for
three years, and to authorize bonds for
the purpose of increasing the gold re
serve to $200,000,000. Tho silver men
may insist on the purchase of 2,500.000
ounces-per month. If they do, they
will consent to a provision permitting
the national banks to issue circulation
to the par value of their bonds.
A Mail reporter in his rambles
about the city of Medford last Monday
by chance stepped into the fruit pack
ing establishment of J. A. Whitman.
In converration with Mr. Whitman we
gleaned a few points regarding tho
profits accruing to the owners of well
cultivated fruit farms. Speaking more
particularly of apples we were given
the information that a choice variety
of winter fruit, such as Mr. Whitman
is now buying, brings at the present
time forty-five cents per box a box Is
one bushel. This is an average price,
and at the very low average of six
boxes to the tree we have $2.70 as the
net profit for one tree. Wo say net
profit, because that no expense de
volves upon the grower except the
picking anddelLvwlBRhobojuJorJ4:
shipment ueuiK lumisncu anu me pucK
iug done by the purchaser. Now let us
figure a little further: Upon an acre
of ground seventy trees call be grown
some plant as high as seventy-five,
Hon. J. D. Whitman, considered one of
our best authorities, pluuted seventy
throe, but let us figure at seventy.
Seventy trees to the acre, six boxes to
the tree, forty-five cents per box and
we have, what just an even $1S9 as
one year's, product- from one acre of
land. Mr. Whitman estimates that
one good man will cultivate and spray
fifty acres of trees. It can easily bo
seen by this that a neat little fortune
can be made from a few acres planted
to apple trees.

"Without quest! n Wash Norton and

ticularly the mesmerism concluding
the entertainment, where a magnifi
cent display of expeusive costumes
Iroiu all countries is shown. I no en

"Why is He So Irritable?'
This question is ofteu heard aud
nearlv as olten unanswered.
It is not always remembered, as it
should be, that the occasion of ill-tem
per and irritability is often to be founa
iu the physical condition of the persons
affected. " What is the use of trying to
"harmonize"' a man whose liver has
gone back on him? If a man is tortured
with rheumatism, how can he be ex
pected to be affable and agreeable?

to be cheerful and always ready to tell
a funny story.J i he only way to remove
the difficulty is to get at the cause.
Dyspepsia, rheumatism, impure blood
and liver troubles yield to Hood s bur
saparrilla; this is why it is an elective
tranquilizer, a peaceful messeuger, and
a preventive oi domestic quarrels
