Anuaon' from the them to j Storm Scenes in Eastern Oregon, ; lu other climes tho rays of the shining sun may do to melt the Jsottled snow, but in the live and progressive north Pacifio country the sun is nowhere compared with tho wind. For instance, 'tis mid- , winter in eastern Oregon. A ocean of bunchgrass land. Noth ing breaks its even purity but the occasional sagebrush tops that peep above it, or a piece of black overhanging rimrock jutting from the canyon side. The air is rather cold, and the aspect on earth is bluer, than the cold blue sky above bluer to the suffering stock and their restless owners. Snow, snow, a sea of snow. Nothing but snow. Horses are pawing for grass high up on the hillsides, or stand ing about a frozen watering place with gaunt bodies and a feverish lustre in their longing eyes. The cattle are humped up and motion less in the brushwood at the bot tom of deep canyons standing in still despair with paunches con tracted to thoi- spinal columns. The sheep are strung along the creek's fringing brushwood, or bunched about the feed-yard at the home-ranch, the lambs and weak sheep having free access to the stack as long as the hay lasts. The sky darkens, and the wind, facing right-about, blows gently from the south. It has done this many times during the long storm, only to bring fresh snow, or veering toward the north, freezes a crust on that already fallen. This time the south wind, from a gentle, puffing bieeze, in creases to a steady gale, and be fore night the sagebrush lifts higher from tho white Geld, and rocky points are bare. It is the real chinook. The warm wind has thawed to life the suffering stock, who commence nibbling the un covered sagebrush. All night the wind blows a stiff gale, and in the morning the south hillsides are bare of snow. Horses and cattle are filling up on the bare grass, and the sheep are driven off to the camp. Every gully and ravine is a running stream, and in all the steep gulches is a dashing torrent. The creeks, swelling big, carry from the mountain's edge trunks of trees, and in places wash away valuable creek bottoms. Next day only small snow patches mark the diminishing drifts, the sun comes out, and in four clays from the breaking of lho snowy spell the ground is all bare, the mud dried and the grass green ; stock is regaining its chilled vitality, and new life enters the land. There may be several bad storms in a single winter, but the inevit able chinook, or Japan current, speeding from the tropical Pacific climes, brings with it salvation to the snow-bound bunchgrass coun try, and the snow rapidly disap pears with not a ray of sunshine in sight.

I have tried a number of physicians, but without receiving any permanent benefit. Among thennmberwereoneor two specialists. Tho medicine they applied w&3 like fire to the sore, causing intense pain. I saw a statement In tho papers telling what S. S. S. had done for othera similarly afflicted. I procured somo at once. Before I had used the second bottle the neighbors could notice that my cancer wa3 healing up. My general health had been bad for two or threo years I had a hacking cough and spit blood continually.
