Mr. Rltxman says that he never felt he could afford to spend the time and money on an uncertainty, so never made any effort to find the treasure. . The place where the wealth was sup red to be roncalM was at Munset Itav. m cove south of the entrance to t'noe F'ay. This place It was said was selected so that the unloading of the vessel woul't not be observed, and Is sal.f to be trie only point on the coast which answers the description of the plae where tne treasure was concealed. flunsrt Hay Is a few miles South of Coos Fay and Is a small harbor of refuse, which Is used by fishing boats during storms. While there are rocks and reefs on the outside there Is an entrance for boats, and It would be nnlte possible for a small vessel to run In and unload a cargo without ob servaMon. While funset Itay Is dur ing tne Summer lime quite a favorite camping place, during certain seasons It would even now be secluded and un observed. I nlll he moved to his farm.

The treasure was stipptsed to have been conceal some time In the '40s. Mr Evans says IhaL after the Indian wars of I -,,( In Oregon two men named Abbott and Packard, who hail been discharged from the Kegular Army after fighting the Indians, came to Sunset Hay and made a aeareh. They used lonr Iron rods with ateel points with which they probed the waters of the coast. In speaking of the story, Mr. Kvana ays: "if there waa any murder in con nection with It I never heard of It. but I suppose If anyone committed murder they would not tell about It. As far as disposing of the bodies In the thick timber It would not be diffi cult. Hut I do not koow that the story of the treasure was believed by many persons, and at different times men came to make a, search. In several cases' they stopped at my house, when they were looklnir for the treasure. Whether Klmmel and his associates ever came here or not I would not at tempt to say. as there were some whom I did not know. I have never heard of anybody ftndlnir any of the treasure The a-oM find In Coos County detracted from the treasure sury. and It waa forgotten when other events of more Importance followed. Ne ( lews Obtainable. '1 would not know how to loolc for the treasure unless one could find de pressions where the ground has been disturbed or find some marks on old trees or stones which might give a clew. For my part I waa engaged In gold mining and ranching and never made any attempt to find the 13.0n0.000 supposed to be burled. Some who came to hunt fur the treasure were soon dis couraged because of the rough land and the thick timber and underbrush. The underbrush grows so fast that In a few years any part of the ground that might have been disturbed would be quickly covered." Sunset Hay Is a beautiful spot.

No. 16 and 18 Tubes, ea. 50 Woodard, Clarke & Co. SULPHURRO IS PROVING A BOON TO MULTITUDES People of Thia City Buying It Be cause Their Systems Need It. MABVELOUS EE COED FOB JTJST TWO SHORT MONTHS Stewart's Compound of Sulphur Go ing All Over the World Bead Booklet Carefully, as Information . 'Will Help You Sulphurro- Baths for Tired Teet. Portland Is proving that it needs Sul phurro. Men and women who have suf fered for years have at last found re lief, and health through the wonderful curative properties of the medicine dis. covered by C. M. C. Stewart, of Seattle. That one medicine could accomplish so much -rood for mankind In its short existence as Sulphurro seems Incred ible. Although It has been on the mar. ket only since the first of the present year Just two months Its name Is known all up and down the Pacific Coast. It has been sent Into almost every state In the Union by friends who have been benefited by Its use, and bottles of it are on the way to des tinations all over the world. Many of those whom Sulphurro has cured of various ailments rheumatism, stomach disorders, goitre, tumors, skin diseases and blood affections have friends or relatives living- "in the old country," and these admirers have pur chased Sulphurro at the drug-stores a ltd have forwarded It themselves, hoping; It would prove as beneficial on tha other side of the water as It had In their particular cases. Isn't that a pretty good record for two months in the public eye? Previous to January 2 Sulphurro had never been mentioned in any newspaper. SrLPIIL'KKO WORTHY OP SUCCESS. Another question: Could Sulphurro gain such wonderful success if It was not worthy In every respect? The friends of Sulphurro those who have been cured after long; suffering from diseases they feared .might be their undesired companions the re mainder of their lives are the most constant and persistent spreaders of the Sulphurro gospel. The remarkable fact is that wherever Sulphurro la taken or applied In ac cordance with tha booklet accompany ing each bottle, and is given a fair chance to Improve the condition of the patient. It works wonders. Mr. Stew art has yet to hear of a single case where benefit or cure has not followed when his directions were given rigid adherence. In this connection he desires to em phasise the necessity for reading care fully the booklet and getting from It all the information possible about the need for cleaning out the system and the way to do It. Sl'LPHt'RRO BATHS BE.VKFICIAU Albng with the Internal and other treatment, Sulphurro baths will be found especially helpful In the cure of disease. The Sulphurro In the water renders It soft and pleasing to the senses; the skin immediately feels the benefit of the tonic, and the entire sys. tern responds. A Sulphurro foot bath Is restful for tired feet. Sulphurro can be used in so many ways with Immediate advantage that It is establishing a stronger claim every day to be called Dame Nature's own remedy. The system needs sulphur. That fact has been known for genera tions. But in these later days the tendency la away from old traditions and prac tices. Our mode of living Is so dif ferent from that of a generation ago that we have carved out new lives hurried, busy lives that do not give us time enough to think of our own phys ical welfare or that of our children. Sulphurro Is getting back to first principles. It Is the Ideal blood and system cleanser, and now that Spring is here, we all need to have our phys ical beings freshened and given new Tlgor. Sulphurro will do It, and do It better than It has ever been done be fore. Sulphurro is convincing. BTvery state ment made In the newspapers about it has been founded on fact, with the proof right at hand. No extravagant or unwarranted statements have been Howed to appear. Only a few of the hundreds of letters of appreciation have been shown the public by the news papers. Catarrh Seattle, Jan. Z, 1912, C. M. C. Stewart. Seattle, Wash.

Dear Sirs: So far I have seen no testimonials of Sulphurro aa a remedy for hemor rhoids, so I wish to tell you my ex perience, as I know there are many people who suffer untold agonies from that source. I have for years been afflicted, many times being unable to turn myself In bed. Late In September I received my first bottle of Sulphurro. being one of about 400 who were that day given of the wonderful remedy at Mr. Stewart's home. I Immediately began its use. and was simply astounded at the sudden and complete relief from pains from both hemorrhoids and rheumatism, which had given me no relief for many months. Now, after five months, I can say I have felt no return of pain from either source, and feel as agile as a girl. My daughter had a bad stiff neck. We applied the usual remedies for two days; ahe grew worse; then tried Sul phurro as a liniment. We used It but twice. The relief was Immediate; the oure speedy. A friend gave it to her children for worms, with the desired result. I know of many who have had mar velous relief from the use of your won. derful remedy, and hope many, many more will seek and obtain relief and cures from the same source. I will gladly answer any inquiry, either personal or by phone, or by let ter If postage for reply Is Inclosed. Very gratefully yours, (Signed) MRS. LORA SMITH. No. 913 Twenty-fourth Ave., City. Woman Cured of 15 -Year Asthma Case SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 30, 1912. Mr. C. M. C. Stewart Sulphur Co., Seattle, Wash. Gentlemen : I have-received Buch benefit from the use of "Sulphurro" that I feel it my duty to write you this letter in the hope that it may be the means of inducing other sufferers from asthma to try your truly wonderful remedy. I have. been treated for asthma for fifteen years by some of the best phsicians and specialists in Philadelphia, Buffalo and Pittsburgh, and have undergone two surgical operations in hopes of effecting a cure, but have never received any lasting benefit from any of them. In October, 1911, 1 began taking Sulphurro, knowing it could not do any harm, even if it did no good. In about two weeks I began to breathe better, and today I believe I am' as free from asthma as any normal person could be, in spite of the heavy fogs common here and other conditions which were a dread to me in the East. I eat and sleep better than I ever have in my life, and I have no cough at all. In fact, I am cured of asthma after hav ing suffered for fifteen years, and I cannot thank you enough for having placed your great discovery in my hands. Very truly yours. ' MRS. S. A. POWELL. Read This Interview Belden Main, in charge of the ship ping department of the Ernst Broa" hardware store, at the corner of 'sixth' avenue and Pike street, Seattle. Is one of the most enthusiastic lndorsers of Sulphurro. To It he owes the fact that he Is stronger and better today than he has been for years. Said Mr. Main -to a representative of this paper; "For the last six years I have been suffering from rheumatism. This be came particularly violent not ions; ago and was accompanied by a case of shingles, the nervous disease that is so excruciatingly painful and so ' often fatal. I was In bed 13 days and. most of the time was under the influence' of opiates, not being able to stand the pain. "Riding on an Alki Point car one day, I fell into conversation with a stranger. " 'What you need, said he, 'Is Mr. Stewart's Liquid Sulphur Preparation.' " 'Never heard of Stewart or his med icine,' I replied. "But I immediately got from Mr. Stewart a ten-ounce bottle of Liquid Sulphur (Sulphurro) to give it a trial. At first I didn't like it and took only one or two drops of it. Then I went back to my old medicine. j ; "These did me no more good than be fore. I suffered great pain, my Joints were stiff and I was a wreck. "Then my daughter urged me to try Sulphurro again, declaring she was con vinced it would cure me if I would fol low directions so many others had profited by its use. 'I went back to Sulphurro and In creased the dose slightly. In seven days I was perfeotly well. Not an ache or a pain was left, and my rheumatism had disappeared entirely. All the ef fects of the shingles went with it." Mr. Main urges all his ailing friends to try Sulphurro, in the sincere belief that it is a true benefactor of man kind. He will be glad to relate his ex. perience personally to anyone wishing to hear him. Rheumatism Seattle. Feb. IS, 191. The C. M. C. Stewart Sulphur Co., Seattle, Wash.
