Fires continue to burn merrily In the Deschutes and Fremont National For est and numerous new fires are re ported elsewhere In Oregon and Wash ington.

Heavy rains on the Columbia and Rainier National forests slowed down the blazes there. Forestry officials fear that fires on the Columbia will spread to the old Yacolt burn, where they would be beyond control on account of the dryness of the old trees.

"I warn never sick to amount to any thing; in all my life up to a few months a Ico." he continued, "and for a man of my age my health was just about per fect. Then something seemed to gro wrong: with my kidneys. There was a kind of dull, aching- pain in my back, and ever since the trouble started it disturbed me so much at night that I never could Ret any restful sleep. I was badly conBtipated, too, and I would feet up in the mornings feeling: just about as tired and worn out as when I went to bed. I was also troubled with ca tarrh In my head, and altogether I felt so bad and no account that I knew I would have to take something to straighten me out. To tell the truth, I never have had to take much medicine of any kind, so It was all a new ex perience for mo to get Into such a run down condition. "But Just about this time I began to hear such wonderful things said about Tanlac that I went and got me a bottle. Well, sir, I never had such an appetite in my life as I have got now since I started taking Tanlac. Why, I can eat and digest anything. My kidney trou ble has been entirely relieved and, with the help of Tanlac Tablets, my consti pation has been completely removed. I sleep like a log at night, never wak ing till daylight comes, and when I get up In the mornings I feel fine and fresh and completely rested.
