Sopho- it ii cles. it PREMONITIONS. , Address All Communications to COOS KAY DAILY TIMES Mnrslificld Oregon There's a bud on the bush by the lilac gate, And a bird on the bough In the lane; And, upon my soul, I can hardly wait For the bloom In thf valley again! There's a knock at the door of tho beautiful hill And a shadowy, far-off note . Of song on the stream from the lips of dream, And the robin is clearing throat! his RETURNING TO KETTEK RUSI NESS CONDITIONS. Tho Issuance, with strong under writing, of $40,000,000 of long-time Bow-Interest rate bonds by the Penn sylvania Railroad Company Is the most conclusive evidence that wo have yet had of the return of nor mal business conditions. We must so back a considerable period to find a similar transaction to a time Jong antedating the outbreak of the .recent panic. The Investing world Is slowly but surely working out of the abyss of unnecessary funk into which it has been plunged, says a New York pa per. Exaggerated fears, if not alto gether conquered, are being brought under semblance of control. Money for somo purposes is already abund ant and it will soon be possible for corporations and business men to se cure funds to build, Improve, extend, and equip. Tho embargo is being lifted this is the gratifying infer ence to be drawn from the announce ment of tho new Pennsylvania fi nancing. Confidence, as has often been re marked, Is a plant of slow growth. 3t does not respond much to merely -verbal stimulation. Yet manifestly there are signs of a better state of leellng. Tho recent supreme court decisions have done much to restore a. belief that property rights are still Ao bo protected. Tho events of the dast six months have dono something So educate the public, and there is iless npplnusu for the dancing der vlsbes of our legislative halls and executive offices. Thero has been re covery from tho hysteria that was epidemic, as enn bo seen by compar ing tho news this year from Wash ington and tho state capitals with the news from tho samo quarters a year ago. Tho strength shown by Secretary Taft ns a presidential can dldato Is healing ho is In a fair way to bo accepted by tho conservatives and by tho radicals who have not lost grip on their judgments as a commonsenso, middle ground candi date who is neither at war with pro gress nor with prosperity. With the psychological impediment removed, with tho public temper normal, thero is no reason that a year that came dn with depression may not go out 'with hopo. The eaves are a-drlp, and the sod grows warm, And tho trees are beginning to sigh; The spirit of bloom's in the wake of tho storm, And there's infinite sweet in the sky; Tomorrow, perhaps, when I wako I shall sco A catkin in velvet and brown, And little Miss Daffodil, golden in glee, A-stroll through the heart of the town! Oh, whisper It, wind, to my heart once more, " There are snowdrops open, you say, And the streams are cleaning up house with a roar, Each moment expecting Miss May! I know It, I know it, Sir Tanager cries, And tho meadows are waiting for mo, And tho earth is In infinite love with tho skies, And the skies are in love with the sea. J-X)OD FOR THE KLUE JACKETS. A roport has been mado to tho navy department at Washington in jogard to the vnluo of tho various -powdered, dehydrated, and condensed foods which were tested during tho long crulso of tho lleot to tho Pacl Jlc coast. It was found that powder ed milk Is not as good a substltuto for tho fresh nrtlclo as is tinned milk. Powdered eggs wore- found to bo satisfactory in tho scrambled and omolot form, ns woll as In puddings, ciiBtards, and tho like, and their uso Jb recommended whorover fresh eggs cannot bo obtained at reasonable prices. Most of tho dehydrated veg etables that wero tried answered all jequtromonts especially tho cranber ries, cabbage soup, greens and pota toes, but tho spinach and onions pre served In this way by being doprlved of their moisture did not provo so tsatlsfnctory, ns they requlro a good ideal of seasoning to mnko them jpnlutnblo. Tinned potatoes which taro -a now product on the market, Ibut which havo beon satisfactorily tcinrtl iy tho nrmy la tho Philippines .an'd "AlaBka, proved to ho palntable substitutes lor tho fresh article, and tholr iite Is recommonded. Largo quantities of thoso substitutes will bo purthnsed for tho (loot's voyngo .across 'tho Pacific, and havo already Tjocji r ordered, along with 2GO,000 f pournih (tit coffco and a liko amount :of -butter. "Romember," said tho Prudent men, at the Milllcoma, "that the words once spoken can never bo re called." "No," answered tho Politician, "but you can always make a fuss and say you were misquoted."
