Hnrrlson's coal clrculur con tains the follow Ing: Since the Inst Aus tralian steamer left there have been three urrlvnls from Newcastle and Syd ney, vis., Itoas-ahlre, 3,515 tons; ltnhe mla, 2,270 tons; Wavertri, 3.221 tons; lotr.l, S.006 tons. The engaged list of coal curried front Australia tforty-flve j vessels In nil) now ailoat luid to load, shows a currying capuclty of over 126, iKH) tons. This Is quite a formidable list, nnd Utterly It Is being added to very fust, showing conclusively that Colonial coul will be a leading factor In the coming season, as a fuel for steam purposes. There uie sixteen vessels (one In bullast) now cn route from Newcastle, and six from Sydney, with about 57,01X1 tons of coal, all of this should come here within the next sixty days. The market Is entirely bare of the better grades, such as Wullseml, etc., still the asking price for cargoes nearly due, cleurly Indicate thut other grudes of fuel are being substituted, or better quotations would rule. Second grades of Newcastle nnd Sydney are llndlng favor with large consumers, and contracts are now being freely made for delivery Into next year ut prices heretofore unknown here. The quotations named must leave a mea gre mnrgln for the coul, und for the carriers, yet Importers are eagerly seeking orders. Next year Swansea shipments will be materially diminish ed by our Increased Imports of Austra lian, as at quoted values the latter Is much more economical, there being at present over one dollar per ton In Its favor.

Secretary First National Bank, Treasurer All Others' rW t to impose on you "just as good" V In Medieval Days When people wanted anything they knelt down and prayed for tt Bow aver, that was aom tiro ago. Along about 1400 a fellow named Guten berg, who had "come de Rhine over," was monkeying around a carpenter .hop In Lenta. He whit tled aome little block, and actually mad. an alphabet Then he rigged a sort of well, a machine that would look something like our let ter preaa of today. He arranged his blocks in order, put aome ink on tiem. also a piece of paper, and then screwed his press down. That waa called printing. Old Gutenberg made a howling succee. of the racket and his bead became so swollen that he really snubbed the king on day. Th king overlooked It however, for he had an Idea what kind of fellows printers would be. V ell. Anally they got tn print ing system down pat and. aa the centuries rolled by, began printing newspaper. first person. Invariably singular number, any gender and bard case. la This Enlightened Day There are many newspapers as a matter of fact But It la an utter Impossibility to get a newspaper to admit it Tbt, advertising patronage of a newspaper depends largely ves. Wholly upon Its circulation. A newspaper Is a great deal like the human body; If Its circulation la good, tt prosper.; otherwise, otherwise. Some papers publish Want Columns That Is, a column, or a number ot columns, devoted to small advertise ments. If a fellow wants anything trouble, a wife, a house don't make any difference what it is he can get It by means of a small ad. Included in the "witSt" column are "For Sale," "For Rent" "Lost" "Found," "Stolen" and "Miscel laneous." Now, just see what chumps some people are! Why, a man has been known to hunt over a city this city for days looking for a house In which to live. Had he come to The Astortan office and asked for a want ad. he could have gotten his house without the least bit ot trouble and tor about 25 cents. It Is Needless To tell of The Astortan's circula tion. The paper has been estab lished for a quarter of a century. Why, old Concomly read the first rumor of the building of a railroad to his braves from it Circulation is The Astorlan's long suit Conse quently, when a fellow comes into The Astortan ottlce, looks pleasant throws down 35 cents on the coun ter and says he wants a house, he gets It Why. Just Think I The Astortan goes Into every house In Astoria and a great majority ol those In the surrounding section, ot Oregon and Washington. Hence, It you insert an ad. In The Astortan, it Is equivalent to engaging a man to go around to all those houses and telling the Inmates that you want something or have something for sale. Why, talk about a snap! A Bit of Advice When you want anything no mat ter what It Is when you have any thing for sale; when you lose, find or steal anything, come around and tell your trouble to The Astortan. Bring 25 cents with you, and, above all things, look pleasant Tell the clerk that you want a want ad. in the want column, give him your 25 cent, and go away happy. A. Her man Wise would say, a want ad. will restore the blind, the bald and the bow legged to manhood. 3 Lines ,0C Cents. for a-J - Try It. ENGLISH CAPITAL TOR AMERICAN INVESTMENTS.

Lung Diseases and Rheumatism Many Remarkable Cures Th objection urged against Iadlo la th past by th large bum bar. who otherwise would bar been glad to taks advantage of Its beneficial climate, haa been a lack of suitable accommodation.

They are furnished with modem eonvenlenoes, supplied with pur artesian water, and so situated aa to gtv occupants all the advantage to be de rived from a more or at, protracted residence la this delightful dunat. (From th Baa Francisco Argonaut) "In th heart of the great desert of th Colorado which th Southern Paclfls t-avenes there la an oasis called lndlo, which. In our opinion, te the sanitarium of the earth. W believe, from personal investigation, that for certain Individ uaia, there la no spot on this planet so favor- able." G. T. Stewart M.

As to Its poasibllltles as health retort here Is the moat perfect sunshine, with a temperature always pleasant a perfectly dry soli, for rain Is an unknown factor; pure oxygen, dens atmosphere and pure water. What more can be desired? It is the place, abov all others, for lung troubles, and a para dise for rheumatics. Considering the number of sufferers who have been cured.
