Some day there will be a big mining excitement in Southern Oregon. For years the country has been the Mecca of prospectors who have washed the gold from the gulches and gouged it out of pockets where they could get it with the least expense and work. Un til the last few years there had been no efforts at deep sinking. It was a poor man’s country, and the prospec tors were content to pick the gold from the surface. No one knows the quanti ty of gold thus mined. As high as 2200,000 have been taken out of a single pocket, and the finding of nuggets and pockets with lesser amounts have been common enough to attract scarcely more than passing notice. Since ’51 the hills have yielded a steady harvest of gold. During the wild Klondike stampede and other gold excitements, when the tidal wave of humanity shifted here and there, taking men from every mining center in the world, very few left the Southern Oregon dig gings. They preferred a certainty to lighly colored rumors. There was gold enough at home to keep them; and while other prospectors were un. dergoing the hardships in Alaska, blazing the Chilkoot trail with their bones, plunging to death in the swirling White Horse rapids, “mushing” over Lake Bennett at the heels of starving dogs, and dying by the scores in Daw son city of chills, fevers and other sickness caused by exposure and in sufficient sanitary arrangement«; while these things were being ex perienced, the miners in Southern Oregon were comfortably mining gold at borne, their only care a fear of dry weather whereby the water supply for hydraulicking would not be so large as usual. Sometimes such comparisons are needed to teach people the ful- blessings they enjoy at-home. Mrs. C. E. VanDeusen of Kilbourn, Wis., was afflicted with stomacli trouble and constipation for a long time. She says “I have tried many W ashington , I).
