dustry. From .Brockton come espe-
cially encouraging reports. W. L.
Douglass is going to increase the Ca
pacity of his factory to 5000 pairs Of
shoes per day.
The addition will be made in the
form of wing running out from the
front of the factory 100 feet deep,
forty feet wide and four stories high.
This will add $1,000 square feet Of
space for manufacturing purposes.
About "a, 600 more per week will be
paid out to shoemakers, which will
go to increase the prosperity of the
community at large.
When the factory starts up the first
of July it will be on an output of 500
dozen pairs Of shoes per day, and the
weekly payroll, exclusive of office
help, superintendent, foremen, etc.,
will be $29, 900 per week to those
actually engaged in making shoes.
The statesmen on the road are sell.
ing twenty-five per cent more goods
than last season, and to take care Of
this increased business the erection of
the addition is made necessary. The
increased sale is the direct result OF
extensive advertising, the expendi-
ture for which is now larger than at
any other period, and is to be still
further increased.

true golden age in the worlds history.
He says that improved methods in
extracting the precious ore from allu-
vial lands and all sorts of deposits in
which the percentage of the metal Is
extremely small will result in an en-
ormous expansion in the supply, and
that within fifty years at most the
quantity Of gold obtained from an i'm.

be multiplied many times. He takes
a rosy view Of the results of the

that prosperity, contentment and the
