AnV one that doesn't Mm thorn -nr their doings isn't compelled to go, and the decent thing for their oppo nents to do is to let them severelv alone. CHA3IPIOXS THE FALL PACE. 4,A Daniel Come to Judgment" In "H. O. T." Some great man has said that "the longer you live the more you find out." Such, doubtless, will be the experience of Columbia river salmon canners when they learn that they don't know anything about their bus mess, and after laboring, some of them for a quarter of a century, at putting up canned salmon, they are as badly mistaken as the man that would eat tho peach stone and the peach away.. Here they have been, lo these many years, packing spring salmon in pref erence to other grades and varieties, and now comes the Herald of Trad, and in its issue of the 12th inst., cru elly reveals how mistaken all thi in. The argument, if argument it may be called, of our San Franohcu cou temporary, is that fall salmon is better than spring "Balmon. It starts out by saying that it is "not so foolish as to claim that the fish caught and paked after August 1st of each year are not equal to the fish caught and paoked in April, May, June or July." This would indeed be great follv on the part of the H. Ot T.t bnt it is just what everyone who knows auy thing at all about salmon does claim. Further on our sapient San Fran cisco salmon sharp says that it doesn't do to can "the choicest parts of the table salmon," and that the salmon caught at tho mouth of the river are not so desirable for cannera as when they have passed up the river say u hundred miles or so. This is deoid edlyrich. Most men think that the sooner a salmou is caught after com ing injCrom the sea, in tho spring and summer, the finer it is. and the better it will bo for canning." But from our San Francisco friend's superior stand point we can all clearly see how mis taken we all have been. It is, of course plain to the dullest intellect that the proper course to pursue is to refuse to catch or oan those nasty plump salmon that come iu in May, Juno and July, and wait for a bonier breed, the salmon that can be found up near the headwaters in the leafy month of September. Indeed the best thing to do is to move all the canneries from Astoria and the lower Columbia a couple of hun dred miles up stream. Still, it is pos sible, that the canners will refuse with strange perverseness to see the error of their ways, and will go right on in their blindness canning spring salmon caught at the mouth of the river, and claiming its superiority to the fall fun. Poor, genial John T. Raymond, now dead and gone, used to say that H. O. T." meant "high old time." From the tone of our San Francisco con temporary '8 leader on tho merits of fall salmon it looks as though the San Francisco IT. O. T. wa3 having a H. O.T. Suicide. DR.

Ears and Scalp Covered with Ecze- matous Scabs and Sores Cured by Cuticura. MY little: son, aged eight years, lias been afllicted u ltti Eczema ot the scalp, and at times a great j-ortlon of the body, ever stneo ho was two years old. It began in his ears, and extended to his scalp, which be came covered with .scabs and sores, and from which a stlCKy fluid poured out, caus ing intense Itching aud distress, and leaving his hair matted and lifeless. Underneath these cabs the skin was raw, like a piece of beetteav. Gradually the hair came out and wasdestroved, until out a small patch was left at the 'back of tho head. My friends In Teabody know how my Hi tie boy has suf fered. At night lie would scratch his head until his pillow was coered with blood. I used to tlo his hands behind him, and In many wajs tried to pievent his scratching; but it was no use, lit: would s r.itcli. I took him to the hospital and to the best physi cians In Teabody without success. About this time, some friends, w ho had been i ured by the Ci'ticpka Hkmkdics. prevailed up on me to trv them. I began to use them on the loth of Sanitary last. In seven months every particle of tne disease was removed. Xot a spot or a scab remains en his scalp to tell the story of his Miffering. ills hair has returned, and is thick and .-trong, and his scalp as sweet and Cfenn as any child's In the world, I cannol.ty piiotuih to express my gratitude for this wonderful cure by the Clticui:a Ukmkiuks. and w.sh all similar ly atllicted to know tint my statement Is true and without exaggeration. illAltLJCSMclvAY.
