When the eyes become weak, and the lids inllamcd and sore, it is an evidence that tho system has become disordered by Scrofula, for which Ayer's Sarsaparilla is the best known remody. Scrofula, which produced a painful in flammation in my eyes, caused me much suffering for a number of years. By tho advice of a physician I commenced taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. After using this medicine a short time-1 was completely Cured My eyes are now in a splendid condi tion, and I am as well and strong as ever. Mrs. "William Gago, Concord, N. II. For a number of years I was troubled with a humor in my eyes, and was unable to obtain any relief until I commenced using Ayer'r Sarsaparilla. This nieili cine has effected a complete cure, and I believe it to be the best of blood puri fiers. C. E. Upton, Nashua, N. II. From childhood, and until with a few months, I have been afflicted with Weak and Soro Eyes. I have used for these complaints, with beneficial results, Aver' Sarsaparilla, and consider It a great blood purifier. - Mrs. C. Phillips, Glover, Vt. I suffered for a year with inflamma tion In my left eyo. Three ulcers formed on the ball, depriving me of sight, and causing great pain. After trying many other remedies, to no purpose, I was final ly induced to use Ayer's Sarsaparilla. By Taking three bottles of this medicine I have been entirely cured. My sight has been re stored, and there is no sign of inflamma tion, soro, or ulcer in my eye. Kendal T. Bowen, Sugar Tree Ridge, Ohio. My daughter, ten years old, was afflict ed with Scrofulous Soro Eyes. During the last two years she never saw light of any kind. Physicians of the highest standing exerted their skill, but with no permanent success. On the recommen dation of a friend I purchased a bottle of Ayer's 8arsaparilla, which my daughter commenced taking. Before she had used the third bottle her sight was restored. Her cure is complete.

Vicwril Ihe Siskiyou Scenery. Ashland Tidings. When the Southern Oregon wenther began to "get in its work" on the new railroad over the Siskiyous, afwut the first thing it did was to suspend indefinitely the time card of the Mt. Shasta division of "the C. & O. It. U. The sides of the deep cuts began shap ing themselves to the angle most pleasing to nature, sloughing off the surplusage of rocks and alluvial deposit and piling it upon the truck; the big fills begun to settle aud re adjust themselves upon a more solid Imsin, and in many places along the roadbed the enl of Ilia unballasted track had to perform the unnatural duty of holding up the ties. A heavy rock slide at Steinmnu prevented the H. P. trains from coining auy further north than that place after Tuesday, and the 0. C. sent up a train from Ashland to 1. -aitsfer passi,gers, mail and express nutter at that point, rndny the railroad boys km id to the Tidings editor: "You ought to go up to Ihe slide and see the road aud get au item for your paper." The editor thought so loo, and boarded tho special train which pulled out for Steinmau Friday about 11 a. m. At the slide the south bound passengers were transferred to a C. P. train and soon started up the mountain. Then we were ready to come back to town that is the editor was ready, but the traiu wasu't. Looked at the scenery some. Kock debris and liquid adobe in the foreground, and cloud banks, fir trees and an occasional spot of wet sky in the distance. Man in telegraph cur said no prospect of south train rouching Stciuiuan that day. Ready to go home again. Conductor hadu't time to run down. Looked at the scenery some more wetter and muddier and darker. About midnight heard the south bouud train Just above us on the second grade, the engines snorting nud puffing and the conductor thinking himself in luck that be had made five or six miles in ten hours. The passen gers, including the Uncle Tom's Cabin Co., didu t nave anything to eat on tne train so far as we knew, but tbe donkey and pony and the two blood hounds. Next morning we heard that they had reached Cole's with out having to butcher the beasts. A good not breakfast again improved the situation Saturday morniug, and about 9 o'clock the welcome order to pull out for Ashland ar rived. Took a farewell look at the scenery at the train started off two miles an hour. Hadn't gone a mile till a telegraph messen ger afoot overtook the train and stopped her with a dispatch "return to Stuinman aud await orders." About this time the Tidings representative coucludcd they shouldn't force any more of that scenery npou him, and in company with the news agent struck out down the road in a gentle Italian drizzle to count the ties to Ashland. Walked Over half way to town when along came tbe train serenely rolling toward home. It stopped and took us iu out of the wet, and before another telegraph messenger could get in his work Ashland was reached and the editor made his escape. No, thank you, no more railroading till next July. ' 1 A Rare Coin. Some time during the year 18SG, says the Jacksonville Times, E. Hendricks, of Apple gate, cut a large pine tree near his bouse and found in its interior a rather anoionl coin. The tree was a very large one, aud his ax was not the first that had been used to mtr its symmotry and grace, for, encircled by forty-fivo rings of poarly growth, were found evidences of a previous assault clear-out marks of an ax, a small cavity and a pack age of cloth or paper containing a copper coin. No writing or other marks could be found on the covering to relieve the curious in respect to this event. The coin is about tbe size of a nicklo, is composed of ooppsr, is dated 1790, has on one side the lion and the unicorn struggling for tht crown and on the other side a monogram composed of the letters V. O. C. The tree stood on the banks of Applegate river, near one of the trails from Oregon to California, was a largo tree in 1811 and had held its secret forty-five years, vviiose secret did It noldf Ship Lost. Aiikhpkkn (via Olympia), Feb. C The British bark Abercorn, of JUiiysport.r.ngiati(i loaded with steel rails bonnd for Portland was wrecked ten miles north of Gray's flur bor bur on the 30th at 6 a. in., and twenty- two lives were lost. On the 25th she sighted the Columbia bar and took on a pilot from the tug Astoria, but was blown out to sea and iu the storm and thick weiithur which followed the pilot lost bis bearings. At daylight on the 30th a sea-otter hunter, Chas Mclntyre, and some Indians taw them, but, an they bad no boat, could not help them A little after noon the vessel broke up. Mdntyre and the Iudians made desperate effort! to save the drowning men, nooiy risk ina their lives in the surf time and again but were able to save only two men and Ihe cabin bov, who was unconscious for ten hours after being rescued.

An avenue six miles in length is now being laid out and cleared through the above land, the entire diHtuuce of which on either side will be planted with English walnut trees. A firm , of land owners is planting .sixty seres of French prunes on bottom lands near town. Captain Thomas G.

The planting that is now be ing dono, with tbe large acreage that has heretofore been planted in small orchards, ranging in size from five to thirty acres, will in a short time throw Anderson in the lead of the fruit-producing districts of Califor nia.
