Ice Cream Sherbets THIS AMOUNT IS OFFERED FOR INVESTMENT HERE THROUGH ANSWERS FROM THE ADVERTIS ING CAMPAIGN OF THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. InvcMtor' letters are beginning to pour into the mail box ut the oostoflke rented by the Chamber of Commerce and the amount of capital available for the growth of Astoria would amaze anybody who had time to read the letters sent In answer to advertisements.

Thi i a fairly good pros pect frtii the result of a few months' advertising on the part of the Chamber of Commerce, and it cun be applied here if the citizen will get together and make matter convenient for the in vestor. Thi immense amount of money range in sums of from $1000 to $100, WW. Hundred of letter have been re ceived from people iu the east who state that they have $1000 to invest, while numerous enquiries have been received from people who have from $30O0to$20 mm.

He announces that he is well recommended and wants to make his home in a city where construction work is an important feature of its progress. A letter will be sent to the engineer that his services would 1 in great de mand in this city. The straightening of streets, and the sliding of the hills into the watered lots after the seawall is completed would provide considerable work for a construction engineer, and the numerous features of Astoria's progress, which come up from time to time, would no doubt be greatly bene fited by an atcive man in this line of business!. t LISTEN TO THIS. Thousands Will Benefit if Statement Made is True. It may be that some, persons will be inclined to doubt the statement made by an eminent authority, at a recent meet ing, that with a mixture of dandelion, kargon and satsaparilla, he would give prompt relief to any sufferer of rheuma tism or the usual forms of backache, caused by inactive, clogged kidneys, yet many cases of long standing that had been entirely relieved were cited to prov the truth of his assertion; ' The- same au thority further stated that many cases which failed to yield to the healing wat ers of the famous health resorts, or the usual remedies as prescribed, salicylate of soda, potash, colchicum, etc. were readily rebeved by the use of this simple mixture Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half ounce j Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsapanlla, three ounces. Take a teaspoonful dose after meals and at bedtime. A. well-known druggist, , when ap proached upon the subject, stated that while this prescription, as written, is new, the ingredients are continually prescribed by the best physicians, and any good prescription pharmacy has them; they are inexpensive and harm less to use, and are mixed by shaking well in a bottle. ,. If the claims, made for this mixture, are only partly correct, it would seem that no sufferer here could afford to leave the prescription untried.
