THE DAILY ASTORIAN, ASTORIA, THURSDAY MORNING SEPTEMBER 5, 1895: for Infants and Children. EVJOTHERS, Do You Know that Paregoric, III Eatetuan'a Drops, Godfrey's Cordial, many so-called Soothing Syrups, aud most remedies for children are composed of opium or morphine? Bo Votl Know that opium and morphine are stupefying narcotic poisons ? ftp Yon Know that in most countries druggists are not permitted to sell narcotics without labeling them poisons?

Bo You Know that Castoria is a purely vegetable preparation, and that a list of Its ingredients is published with every bottle ? Bo You Know that Castoria is tlie prescription of the famous Dr. Samuel Pitcher. That it has been in use for nearly thirty years, and that more Castoria is now sold than of all other remedies for children combined ? Bo You Know that the Patent Office Department of the United Stales, and of other countries, have issued exclusive right to Dr. Pitcher and his assigns to use the word " Castoria "and its formula, and that to imitate them is a state prison offense ? Io You Know that one of the reasons for granting this government protection was because Castoria had been proven to be absolutely harmless ? Ho You Know that 35 average doses of Castoria are furnished for 33 cents, or one cent a dose ? Bo You Know that when possessed of this perfect preparation, your children may be kept well, aud that yoi may have unbroken rest? Well, these things are worth knowing. They are facts.

She will take on 20u tons at the O. H andN. dock, having icft Portland short Unit quantity on account of the danifvh of sticking on one of the numerous mmlbanks along the river. The salmon are coming up the Shasta and Klamath rovers In great numbers, and .parties are out every night spearing them, with good success In securing large supplies, says tho Yreka Journal. It Is a shame that these fish are hindered In getting up the river and Into our lakes and streams by dams built across the K.'a'.Tiath river, thus depriving us of a very tine llsh and eplendld sport. The dam at Keno has been opened so that flsh can paEd it, but the big dam In Cal Ifornla has no flshway and the fish can not pass It. It lis to he hoped that the California; 'flsh commissioners will see that a proper flshway is constructed According to the tonnage engaged, the total output of salmon from British Col umlila to Great Britain direct by water will this year be In the neighborhood) ot SM.000 caaea This la an incrouse of about SO.OtX) cases over last year. The first Sainton vessel to load is raw on tho Fraeer, and1 will, It Is expected, take on a portion of her cargo at Bteveston. She Is the u'tch bark Van Galem -ind Is 1378 tons. She is one of a fleet of three under charter to Robert War4& Co., the other two vessels now on tlTelr way out from England with cargo being the British ship Fiery Cross, of 1399 tons register, and the British bark Sardhana, of 1119 tons. George W. Wyckoff, a 10-year-old boy of Port Townsend, was turned over to Deputy Marshal Qullter yesterday. He was arrested two or three days ago for using an axe too freely on the .United States quarantine ship Iroquois. He was caught chopping the woodwork and try ing to break In the doors, and his arrest followed, the complaining witness being Dr. Simpson of the United States marine hospital. He was taken before United States Commissioner Swan at Port Town send, but as he is but a committing magistrate the boy was brought here for Judge Hanford to dispose of. Young WyckoB Is said to be a kleptomaniac, and not responsible for his acts. Prose cuting Attorney Rupert, of Jefferson county, wants him Bent to tho reform school. Post-Intelligencer. "The Columbia river salmon pack for 1895," says the Interstate Grocer, "ex ceeds the pack of any season during the last decade, except those of 1885 and 192. In 1S85 the pack amounted to 553,800 cases and in 1802, 502,800 cases. This season it amounts to 41KM50 cases, a shortage of about 55,000 cases from the high water mark of 1885. The pack dwindled down In 1SS9 to 325,500 cases, during which year Btandard brands of Columbia river salm on sold at $1.85 to $2 per dozen in St. Louis, on a jobbing basis, with Puget sound and Alaska salmon from (1.45 to $1.50. We mention this because some of our brokerage friends who make a specialty of the salmon business pre dicted early in the season a heavy de crease In the pack. Salmon is selling today In St. Louis, on a Jobbing basis, at 90 cents to $1 for Alaska and Puget sound fish and $1.55 to $1.75 for well known brands of Columbia river. It Is cheap enough." By an accident the dredger Python Is laid up with damages similar to those sustained iby tho Anaconda some time ego, says a Seattle paper. The suction pipe has been cracked, and, although not entirely useless, will nece-isarlly have to be replaced by a new one In a short time. The accident was caused by the men op erating the hoisting machinery, who al lowed steam to bo turned on at an un expected moment, resulting in the larga ripe coming up out o the water and striking the bracts immediately above. One of these was torn away, but the others held, and the pipe had to 'give. It was cracked in two or three places toward the cuter end. The Anaconda, was at once put in position at the end of the r.lpe line, and almost no delay resulted fiom t'he accident. Sand has been stead ily flowing, and up to last evening more than 100 cubic yards had been lodged behind the bulkhead line. The old chan iel has at last fairly 'been crossed by the bulkhead, and tomorrow's grist from the dredger will finally stop the outflow with the tide. The crew of the schooner St. Lawrence, sailing Into Puset sound, has gone on a strike the trouble all arising from the profit Sharing system. The unen complain that catches aro not disposed of at the best prices, and make the charge that Capt. Silas Calder disregards their re quests to get higher bids, but continues selling to Ainsworth. & Dunn, when others are willing to pay more. One of the crow, on the arrival of the schooner last Friday at Seattle, took it upon himself to go to two other dealers for bids, and claims that from one he received an offer of 2 cents a pound and from the other 214 cents, while In the face of this buf 2 cents was received. This caused the six men in. the crew to quit and the boat will not leave until a new crew is se cured. Captain Calder is owner of a small Interest In the St. Lawrence and A Ins- worth & Dunn are the real owners. The sharing system In use on the Sound al lows the boat one-fourth and the crew, Including the captain, divides the other three-fourths, paying aJl expenses. When the captain is not the ovner, he gets a percentage of the boat's share also, and when he is the owner of course he has a sure one-fourth. The Barmore, which has given the un derwriters no end of trouble, as noted elsewhere, is ashore up north, and ac cording to the captain, a total loss; she was Insured In trie east or England. Her cargo was hard to place, as she was alleged' to be badly loaded and overload ed, street cars and a steam launch being on deck, loaded on top of lumber. Quite a littlo notoriety was given the vessel and the captain when she sailed and the street rumors concerning the latter can hirdly be pleasing to that gentleman when he hears them. The fact that Cap tain Metcalfe has gone north in a char tered tug supplied with wrecking appli ances, shows the underwriters, who dis patched him in their interest, do not care to trust the vessel and cargo to Captain AV'oodslde's unaided skill. The cargo shipped from this port was valued at over $39,000, and considerable was taken on at Astoria or Portland. The cargo for Ore gon was safely delivered, and under writers on- that are so much ahead. The Swiss Marine and Canton each had a line on the cargo, part of which was re insured. Gutte & Frank's agency had $7,500 and the Fireman's Fund $2,578 direct, the Commercial Union had a line, all of which' was, fortunately, reinsured. The 'Maritime had about $9,000, all reinsurance, and the North China about $9,400, rein surance, mostly from either the Canton, Swiss Marine or Commercial Union. That probably covers the whole cargo insur ance, and while indefinite, is the best information that the Commercial News could obtain yesterday. No one seemed willing to admit having a line on the Bawramore." News. Prof. D. 8. Jordan, of the Stanford university, who is an old friend of George F. Myers, the salmon canner, during his stay In the city made frequent visits to the cannery to see the different varieties of salmon. In which he is much interest ed, says the Seattle Post-Intelllgencer. The lart salmon cannery the professor previously visited was that of Mr. Myers on the Columbia river in and he was astonished at the wonderful riianges. es pecially In machines and labor saving ap paratus. The saimon known on Puget sound as the "Tyee," Prof. Jordan pro ne unces emphatically a late run of the pimrrat, otherwise known on the Colum bia river as tbe Chinook. All people who THE EQUITABLE LIFE OF" NEW YORK Is the strongest and best managed life insurance company on the face of the e-jrth. Our rates are tio higher than odh ers, for the same kind of a policy, and our contract la so much more liberal to Mie Insurer that you cannot afford to take anything else butt an Equitable pot Icy. Irresponsible travelling agents will misrepresent facts to you by trying to make you bedleve that what they have is Juat as good as the Equitable. By consulting the insurance commissioner's reports you will discover the falsehood. There Is no company, "Just as good." The Equitable is now and has been for fifteen years past THE best. L. Samuel, Eugene Samuel, special agents. have studied salmon recognize the simi larity in appearance and shape, although as the professor remarked, they do not havo t'he rich. Juicy taste of the Chinook. Nevertheless it is a good edible flsh. Mr. Myers said yesterday: "The present run of flsh of which tho cannery is now pack ing Is the haddo. We aro receiving about 13.000 daily. The run' lf lighter than an ticipated, for preparations had been made to (make use of 28,000 a day. From the records of the cannery books for t'he past eighteen years this variety only con tinues biennially about twenty-eight to thirty days. The pack up to date Is about 11,000 cases. The run commenced August 11 and will close as per previous averages September 8. "The sliver salmon are already making their appearance. These disappear about November 10 to 15. It is somewhat remarkable that each of these varieties suddenly disappears near the dates mentioned. One day there may be a number taken and then they are not seen or heard of until the next season. The silver and skowitz arrive every year, the haddo biennially in the odd numbered years. The same species Is found every two years In Alaska, where they go In the years ending with an even number. Scientists will not hazard an opinion as to the cause." THE NORTHWEST LUMBER TRADE. "Many a man coming here from the East miscalculates the chances of making a fortune. He sees the wonderful forests, the beautiful locations for mill sites, he knows what white pine Is selling for in the East, he knows what lumber can be made for, he figures' the freights and counts the profit which In his calculations some times rolls up Into the hundreds and thousands very fast. Figures cannot lie, he says, and bis calculating is seconded by the real estate man, who is trying to sell him the timber land, and perhaps get a chance from him to plat a town and sell house 'lots from the same tract. Of course figures do not lie, but if you don't get all the figures in you don't get the whole truth. Let me state a few facts to toe added to what you have al ready gleaned. There Is plenty of lumber here to take the place of white pine, but the people East believe In white pine, and it is and will be for many years their first- choice, without regard as to whether It is best or not. Great mis takes have been, made in the manner ot putting Pacific coast lumber into the Eastern market in the fact that little consideration has been given the wishes of the eastern buyers in regard to how they wanted the stock worked. Tho peo ple, with few exceptions, who have been getting out lumber for the Eastern mar ket know little or nothing about the condition of things East, or the require ments of the Eastern dealers. This has had the effect to give a -decided set-back to the business. This is not the worst of it; the bad work Is stlH going on, and cheap dealers and cheap mill men are sending out cheap price lists, and cheap salesmen, who (have not the first ide of how an order should be filled. This ptate of affairs has made the Eastern dealer tired and suspicious, and unless he has happened to got hold of a respon sible mill man or dealer from this sec tion he is inclined to let Pacific coast lumber drop until such time as he Is Obliged to force a demand foe It. All this works against the man who Is starting a mill business on the Pacific coastr One firm that I know which has leased a little mill through Its salesman, sold 75 cars of mixed lumber and shingles within a few .weeks, and I will gamble that 6u per cent of these orders will never be filled, and there will be a kick on 75 per cent of those that are filled, and a Just one at that. Taking orders on a fa.se iepre8entatnon is not tho way to build up a successful eastern business, but it is a sure way to make trouble even for the firms which are able to Bhlp good stock well manufactured. All of these things have to toe contended with by the now shipper as well as t'he fact that there are mills already built which will more than furnish the lumber and phlngles needed In the East for the next five years. Many of these mills are poorly constructed, with machinery not suitable to the business and that poorly arranged In the mill; but they manage to do some business; and If they cannot get the stock out as well as some of the better mills It will be sold for less money,, and the dheep mill man with his cheap lumber will have a tendency to keep down the price of lumber, so that the man with an up-to-date mill is only keeping the mill running for the 'benefit of his work men and hanging on until such a tlma as the timber shall get into fewer hands, when tbey may -possibly stand a chance of swapping a dollar for a dollar sjnd ten cents. Now is the time to buy tim ber land, and the quicker tho timber is corralled In few hands the better for all concerned." Correspondence of B. (F. Cobb to Northwestern Lumberman. ORIGIN OF EXPRESS BUSINESS. The express business, which now covers the world, sprung from a trivial sug gestion which a man was wise enough to adopt and develop: Mr. Adams ana the Tate Captain Colt of Norwich were close friends anli the former often sailed with the captain on Ms voyage between New York and Nor- v ich. On one of these Journeys Mr. Adams said to Captain Colt: "I wish I could find something to do." The captain with his well known busi ness readiness, replied: "Do you see those bundles and packages in the berth of my stateroom? Their number Is In creasing wltfi every trip; they are In the way, and the care and attention I have to give them consumes more time pan I can afford, Suppose you collect and take charge of these private packages for a fair compensation. I think you can eastly build up a paying business." Mr. Adams was not s.ow to grasp tne Idea and embrace the offer. From this obscure and insignificant beginning sprung the "Adaims Express Company." The first express contract made by Mr. Adams from Boston to New lork Is among Capt. Cout's papers. Ex. NAMED AT SIGHX. Harper's Baiar. Ethel (aged four) Did you Know Adam named a'l the animals?

ROYAL Baking Powder. Highest ot all la leavening Strength V. S. OvsnuMot Report A PROBLEM IN SOCIOLOGY. Sonfe time ago, after publishing an article on the sad case of "The Unem ployed in Pall MaM," I received! a very pathetic letter from a lady, who claimed to represent a class of unemployed per haps tho most deserving of all. I have kept this letter by mo for three or foi'r weeks, in the hope of arriving at some practical suggestion for the relief ot such cases as it describes. But t'he prob lem Is 400 hard for me. The writer Is one of the numerous daughters of an officer, left with an Income insufficient to keep her in decency, and at 60 years ot age she finds every field of employment closed to her, simply because she Is DO. Let her speak for herself: "I am still active and energetic with good health. I do not look much, over 40. I can teach well all the usual subjects except music, and I am a fluent French scholar; but I date from the pre-examl-natlon period, and alas! have no certifi cates, ... I am an experienced house keeper and understand aacounts. I could chaperone girls, having been accustomed to moving in good society. I could moth er the children of a widower, for I have had great experience with children, more especially with delicate ones I could be useful to- a literary man, for I am a rapid writer; or as a secretary, for I can write a letter from a hint of what is required. Yet nothing can I find to do. I have answered advertisement after advertisement. I have corresponded with all those agents whose frauds you so frequently expose. In despair I ask: What am I to do? Can you and will you suggest some opening?" Can anybody else? AtThOugh the prob lem Is too much for a mere Journalist, It seems to me one well worth the con sideration ot the benevolent. For tlie above Is not the voice of an individual only, tout of a class and a large one. London Truth. HER PRIDE Was Conquered and Her Heart Softened By a Little Poem. New York Sun. "There Is such a thing as trying too hard to accomplish a difficult purpose," saldl a gentleman from iNew York yester dayt "I have Just had an experience in my own city which' has taught me to believe that all things are possible If we are only patient and wait for the op portunity to accomplish them. Indirect means Often prove much more potent than methods which- would appear to have more force, My experience was in making a reconciliation between a hus band and wife who had decided to dis agree and had filed divorce papers. I was a great friend of husband and wife, and the breach that was widening day by day worried me considerably, as I knew there was no Just reason why they should not live together. The wife took her child, a golden-haired blue-eyed boy ot 3, and went to a fashionable seaside re sort, and there plunged Into the wildest sort of gayety, seeming to be as happy as mortal could be. The husband had also gone to a pleasure resort, and he, too, sought to hide the grief In his heart by entering into all the pleasures of the large crowd of associates who were so journing at the same resort. All this time he had many conversations wlthi me. in which he confessed his unhapplness and asked me to use my influence to alter his wife's determination. As I was going to the resort at which his wife was stopping I told him I would use my opportunity. "Shortly after my arrival I broached the subject, but met with such determined opposition from the wife that I was forced to abandon my -purpose for the time. But again and again did I try to soften her heart, but each time she seamed to grow colder. I saw that there was no possibility of reaching her heart in a direct manner, so I conceived an idea which was put into execution shortly after. "It was at a dinner party I was called upon for a toast. I regretted my Inability to provide one, but said that Instead 1 would recite a poem written toy a broken hearted friend of mine. The wife was sitting opposite to me, and I had good opportunity to watch her as I read a poem which I had written, which revealed the feelings such as I would have had if I had been In the husband's place. The whole crowd was affected toy It; the situation was novel, and I used this to intensify the dramatic effect. Before the poem had been finished tears gleamed In the eyes of the wife. Having been successful so far I followed up the ad vantage gained, and before the evening was over pride and anger were overcome by the little verses I had written." HOUSEHOLD HINTS. To remove the odor of parafllne from a tin vessei wash It thoroughly with vine gar. An aftnost invisible cement for mending glass Is 'made of Isinglass boiled in spirits of wine. To preserve old furniture that is becom lng worm-eaten pour a little, carbolls oil onto it, and rub well In. This will Improve its appearance. Chloroform will remove grease or paint marks from a carpet, when a material has been stained and amfnonia is used to clean it the color sometimes appears destroyed. The application of chloroform wlK restore this. Bread destroys the smell of onions, and if water with a pioce ot bread in It be boiled In a pan smelling of onions it will thoroughly clean it. The water should be allowed to boil for about an hour, then be emptied out, and the pan well dried, To clean glass bottles from oil put a few ashes in each bottle and stand them In cold water, which bring gradually to the boK; ,let them' boll for one hour, and then stana in tne water until It is cold Wash the bottles in soap suds and then rinse with clean water, To destroy mice fill a bucket with water and scatter oats over the top so that the water' Is quite hidden. Then put the bucket near a table or chair. They will be attracted by the oats, Jump into the water and be drowned. To remove" a . shiny appeararfce f rom4 cloth. Gentlemen's cloth coats very fre quently look shabby before they are at all worn, on accout of the shiny appear ance caused by ribbing. This may be remedied by wetting the shiny parts, covering them with a damp linen cloth, and ironing with a very hot Iron. When furniture gets very much scratched and the scratches are deep they may be filled as follows: Dissolve some yellow beeswax In sufficient turpentine to make It the consistency ot thick treacle, and apply it to the furniture with a woolen cloth. Polish briskly with a clean woolen ciotn until ary, wnen the wood will be much Improved in ap pearance. 'Home Notes.
