New York World Estimates On
Million Men Returning
to Work.
Closely following the election, the
New York World printed an exhaus
tive review of the revival of industry,
showing that 1,000,000 men are march
ing brixklv forward to roopened fac
tories, basy whirling looms ana
RDindlei. to railroads and other
branches which go to make up the
industrial highway of the United
tiUtcs.
Fruin every section the wheels of
hops and factories are shrieking a
running welcome to batallious of em
ployes who are responding promptly
to the call for mora lielp to man the
plants which have been ent rely closed
or practically out of commission
pending tlie result of the natiouaal
election.
lo each qcarter of the nation smoke
nnurs from the chimneys of establish
ments which have been ' work i re
duced forces of men at half lime.
Hush orders for additional equipment
buve poured into the ollicis of ma
chinery builders In volume and
s . indent to ewamp them and creatiug
at once a tremendous demand for ad
ditional employes.
All along the line word has beeu
parsed that prosperity has arrived
simultaneously with the election of
William II. Taft, and, like a giant,
business and manufacturing interests
have roused from lethargy, and.
baking off the shackles of nncertalnty
and distrust of radical changes in
eoooomio conditions, have ordered
fires rekindled and forces doubled.
Every barometer of trade changed
utterly within a week. The first
news from the polls sent the glass to
the "fair weather" mark, and with
in a week business conditions from
coast to coast hare become wonder
fully settled.
From financial headquarters the
signal bas been flashed to business
firms to hurry the building of delayed
railroad lluei. Contracts involving
expenditures of hoge sums for equip
ment and labor and which contained
clausal conditioned upon the election
results, have been put into effect by
telegraph. In many mannfacturing
oenteis of the east and west and lo
the south the full strength of the labor
army is practically 'called into action.
There is Dot an industrial captaiu but
bas lignalled the magic slogan, "Get
Busy" From all parts of the country
come details of a revival of industries
aud business.
The Woild tbeu follows with ulna
ooluuius of dispatches from all in
dustrial oeuters in all parts of tne
United States showing unosoat
activity and quotes bankers and busi
ness men as predicting the greatest
spasm of prosperity the country has
experienced in years. The trend of
all the interviews is that the country
feels firm ground nudur its feet, with
no obstacles in the way of progress.
COFFEE
Nothing docs more for
a grocer, one way or the
other, than coffee. He
must sell poor; (he needn't

advantage of the system as affording

funds of the people while at the same

Telia You How to Overcome
Rheumatism With Simple Ks
clpe, Which la Etxaily Mixed.
A well-known authority on Rheuma
tism gives the following valuable,
though simple and harmless, prescrip
tion, which anyone can easily prepare
at home : Fluid Extract Dandelion,
one-half ounoe; Compound Kargon,
one ounce ; ; Compound Syrup Sarspa
rilla, three ounoes. Mix by shaking
well in a bottle apd take a teaspoonful
after each meal and at bedtime. He
states that the lugieJients can be ob
tained from any good presorlption
pharmacy at small cost, and, being of
vegetable extraction) are harmless to
take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken reg
ularly for a few days, is said to over
come almost any case of Rheumatism.
The pain and swelling, if any, dimin
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without
Injuring the stomach. While the.e
are many so-called Rhenmtism reme
dies, patent medioioes, etc, some of
which do give relief, few really give
permanent results, and the above will,
no doubt, be greatly appreciated by
many sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this
neighborhood elicits the information
that these diugs are harmless aud
can be brought separately, or the
druggists here will mix the prescrip
tion for onr readers if ankuil to.

The Port Orford Tribune comments
tliusly en the actions of one of our
citizens recently :
ine people or urants fass were
startled on November 1st by seeing
Harvey Cook rnnning in his shirt
sleeves bareheaded toward the weft.
And a cop tniuking something very
wrong had happened, bad a hard time
to stop him, and when be asked what
was the matter, Harvey exclaimed:
'Let me go. I'm Dad and most tell
Papa and Mamma. It's a girl and
weighs 8 pouuds. ' And on he went
much faster than ever he ran a foot
race aud soon Grandpa aud Grandma
Cook were seen to pass going to see
their little granddaughter. The
mother aud daughter are doing fine
aud we hope time will quiet Harvey's
nerves. "
