Dare to Be Happy.

Let us never be afraid of innocent
Joy; God Is good and what he does Is
well done; resign yourself to every
thing. even to happiness; ask far the
spirit Of sacrifice, of detachment, Of
remuneration, and above all, for the
spirit Of Joy and gratitude, that gen
uine and religious optimism which
sees In God a Father, and asks no
pardon for his benefits, We must
dare to be happy and dare to confess
1t, regarding ourselves always as the
repositories, not as the authors Of our
own joy.-Amiel.

EDITOR BROWNE
OF The Rockford Morning Star.

About seven years ago l ceased
drinking coffee to give your Postum a
trial.
Il had suffered acutely from various
forms Of indigestion and my stomach
had become SO disordered as to repel
almost every sort of substantial food.
My general health was bad. At close
Intervals l would suffer severe attacks
which confined me in bed for a week
or more. Soon after changing from
coffee to Postum the indigestion
abated, and in short time ceased
entirely. l have continued the daily
use of your excellent Food Drink and
assure you most cordially that | an
Indebted to you for the relief 1t has
brought me.
wishing you continued success, I
am Yours very truly.

OF course, when q mans health
shows he can stand coffee without
trouble. let him drink 1t, but most
highly organized brain-workers sim
ply cannot.
The drugs natural to the coffee ber-
~ affect the stomach and other organs
and thence to the complex nervous
system, throwing 1t out of balance and
producing disorders In various parts
Of the body. Keep up this daily pois-
oning and serious disease generally
supervenes. So when man or woman
finds that coffee is a smooth but dead
ly enemy and health Is of any value
at all, there Is but one road-quit.
1t is easy to find out II coffee be tho
cause of the troubles, for If left of 10
days and Postum be used In its place
and the sick and diseased conditions
begin to disappear, the proof Is un-
answerable.
Postum is not good II made by short
boiling. 1t must be boiled full Is min
utes after boiling begins. when the
crisp flavor and the food elements are
brought out of the grains and the bev,
erage is ready to fulfill its mission OF

THE OFFICIAL PAPER FOR GIL
LIAM COUNTY
THE CONDITIONS ON rHE COAST

During the recent session OF
Congress there was incessant
oratorical strife between the
jingoists who sighted or imag-
ined wars horrid front across
the Pacific. and the peace proph-
cts who predicted an era of calm
with such sponsors as the Hague
Tribunal and the Carnegie peace
fund. The war heralds of whom
Congressman Hobson is the
arch.type, believe that we are
on the verge of war with Japan
and Hon. Hobson even predicts
that it will be precipitated be-
fore another year. Those who
pipe the time of peace insist
that this arranged war scare is
mainly in the interest of con-
tractors, the builders of war;
ships and Notifications, and the
purveyors of munitions of war.
Congress had barely adjourn
ed when an army of twenty
thousand men were assembled
on the Mexican border for what
exact purpose the administration
has not said. During the ses-
sion representative orators were
slurring the army and magnify
ing our defenseless condition.
1t was given out that Japan
could land quarter or a million
of soldiers on the Pacific Coast
before we could get ten thous-
and there. Well, in less than a
week we have assembled a COM
pletly equipped army of twenty
thousand men more than half
way on its journey to the Pacific
slope, and there is no doubt
that with the lines of railroad at
our disposal we can in two weeks
or less time place forty thousand
men in a position to defend the
three or four sensitive points of
attack on our western litorial.

WELCOME THE IMMIGRANT

The following from the Edit
orial Columns of the Oregon
Journal expresses our senti-
ments exactly regarding the
welcome being extended to the
homeseekers who are now enter
ing Oregon in large numbers:
THE first delegation of home
seekers arriving on the colonists
rates has reached Portland. In
formation is that the trains to
follow are crowded, and that the
period Of the low rates will wit
ness the largest list Of arrivals
in state history.
The visitors will find Oregon a
hospitable state. They can ask
questions of any passerby and be
assured of a kindly reply. They
can seek information anywhere,
and have confidence that there
will be a gracious response.
They can move freely among
Oregonians and as sure of civil
treatment.
Oregon is peopled by strivors
and descendants of the old
pioneer stock and of new pop
ulation from the sister states.
1t makes a militant, but a gen.
erous mixture, The predomi-
nant trait of the frank western
spirit that is born of magnificent
distances, broad outlines and the
traditions of life on the frontier.
Oregon is a state where the
latch string hangs outside. 1t is
a state where there are no ex-
tremes Of temperature to tear
the nerves and wear out the
physical life. The thermometer
does not have to be wrapped in
blankets in the winter or kept in
refrigerator in summer. 1t is a
state in which there is no record
of a crop failure, and in which
the percentage of mortality is at
the lowest notch.
