Thomas A. Edison. the famous in
yentor, has perfected a phonograph
which, it is believed, will revolutionize
the taking and producing of testimony
and dictation. Mr.. Edison claims that
with two machines, one for recording
and the other for producing, a single
operator can do the work of eight un-
der the present system. The Orange, n.
j., correspondent for the Chicago
Chronicle says: Although no larger
than ordinary monographs, the new
device is different in many particulars.
The record is nine inches long and half
an inch thick and will take from eight
to nine letters Of ordinary length. An
other advantage claimed for the record
of the new machine is that it can be
shaved IT'S times, making 1t cost no
more than the cheapest paper The
machine is operated by electricity. Af-
ter the person debating has finished his
work the typewriter operator takes the
record and transfers it to a phonograph
at his desk. When he touches button
with his foot the machine begins to re-
produce. The invention is not claimed
to be an entirely new and untried one,
but it has not been so thoroughly per-
fected that 1t could be proftably used
for the purpose referred to till now
While the belief is about general
that the present prosperity Of the
United States Is to continue, it is a
cause for qualification to find that
shrewd observers of foreign nations
hold to this view and dc not hesitate
to express their emphatic belief in the
permanent prosperity Of this country.
Commercial Councillor Backer Of Ber-
lin, German official who made a tour
of this country to study our resorces
and to report upon the development Of
our industries, in an official report
made to the German government is
quoted as saying: "The enormous pro-
gress of the UnitsA States during the
past decade will continue at an increas-
ing ratio" The high German official
who made this emphatic and unre-
served statement in his report to his
government enlarges, in addition, upon
the resources of the United States, and
comedies the superiority of the Ameri-
can industrial system, which has en-
abled the United States to compete sue
cessfully in the markets of the world |
The conclusion is reached that the |
present prosperity Of this greatly pros
porous country, biased upon produc-
tiveness and intelligent development Of |
wonderful resources" will continue "in
spite Of all that Europe can do in the
way Of competition or reprisal."
The above is an expression Of opinion
which is most impressive and most
significant. The opinion of the high
German official is undoubtedly shared
by the representatives Of other foreign
nations who have studied the situation
and conditions in the United States,

Wife Fell In Lows with Husband "All
over Again.
The wife of a Well-known attorney
iat law Of Seward, Neb., tells the tale
worth reading: My husband was a
soldier in the Civil War, and was, as
he called himself, IAN old coffee cooler
and had always drank very strong
coffee.
About a year ago he complained of
a feeling Of faintness every time after
climbing his Office stairs, and was also
troubled by terrible headaches that al
most drove him wild.
He gradually grew weaker and
weaker until his affection eliminated
in nervous collapse, and for weeks he
seemed to be fading away from us in
spite of all our efforts.
1.-THE physicians pronounced him
strong and well, with no organic uou.
bic whatever, and there seemed to BIZ
nothing the matter except the COM.
pletes giving out of his nervous system,
'.The doctors decided that coffee was
at the bottom of all his trouble and
ordered Postum Cereal in its place. He
improved daily since he quit coffee and
began drinking Postum, and now says
he feels better than he has felt for 20
years, headaches are gone, no more
fainting spells, and is gaining IN flesh
every day, and he seems SO much
younger and heartier and happier than
he has for years that / have fallen in
love with him over again.
GINA Aon ~, ~ E1,,,o4l, ..,Sr ~..FG. 80
years ago he had a peculiar trouble.
His tongue was swollen and sore at tho
roots and covered underneath with
testers.
He thought his afHiction was Of a
cancerous nature and his doctorIwas OF
the same opinion. He could scarcely
cat anything and became 50 poor and
run down he was simply a nervgou
wreck. He consulted various physi-
clans, but one were. able to diagnose
his case or help him In the least.
AT last q doctor to whom he ap-
piled said he believed my brother was
coffee poisonedissnd advised him to quit
coffee and drink Postum. He gave him
Nc medicine, but told him to give
Postum fair trial and return to him IN
6 weeks. Ny brother had used Postum
only about ten days when the testers
disappeared from his tongue, and at
the end Of two weeks the soreness and
swelling were rome and he began to
pick up in flesh and spirits.
HE has never touched coffee since,
but drinks Postum all the time and
has never had the slightest return OF
the trouble.

CONGRESS TO DECIDE,
The Statehood Question as Viewed
BY the Eveniag Post


Spesking editorially the New
York Evening Post says. The
question Of separate or joint state
hood fof 0klahoma and Indian
territory is being debated as hotly
in those localities as If they had
power TO settle IL for themselves.
The failure Of Congress at the last
session to confer statehood on any
of the territories has, II seems,
made live issue In Oklahoma Of
the question: What are we TO ask
for next timer
On this question the two politi-
cal parties have already taken
sides. The republican policy de.
mands immediate statehood, which
practically means separate state
hood, since II is not proposed to
admit Indian territory before the
five civilized tribes sever their
tribal relations. The republicans
protest against holding back one
territory until another is ready for
statehood, perhaps as a part Of
the former" The ''singIe staters"
most Of whom are democrats, also
declare that they want statehood
as soon as possible, but they do
not believe in making Oklahoma
and the Indian country "lhe two
Rhode Islands Of the West"
As to Indian territory, the sen.
timent there, so far as expressed, /,
appears TO be chiefly In favor Of
joint statehood, which would give
her share in 0klahoma's pros
peritY. II does not seem in the
least likely that all this argument
will bring about anything ap.
proaching unanimity among the
people Of the territories, and Con.
gress, viewing the dissensions,
will doubtless do what Il probably
would do in any case, and treat
the whole question exactly as II
pleases.
