I doctored with several doctors but obtained no relief. Was told that an operation would effect a cure, go I submitted to one, but this proved like all the medicines I had taken not beneficial. I obtained, and started at once taking ' Favorite Prescription.' "Four months ago the doctors and nurse said it would 1e a year or more before I would be able to do my house work, and, of:' course, I thought so myself as I watt not able to walk across the floor for several weeks.- I am now able to do my housework and to care for my chiklren and I do not feel as.thouj;H I could ever thank you enough for tlie benefits I ' have : re ceived."

Merrill of Ashland writes an interesting letter which appeared iu the Oregonian of Wednesday and la eprinted herewith, upholding the contention that residents of the Rogue watershed should be given the privilege- of spearing or gaffing sal mon for homo use. Tho letter fol lows: Ashland, January 7, To the Editor: There are a few points to this fish controversy in the Rogue River valley hero that must be taken into consideration, as there are two sides to every question. For forty years the settlers In Rogue River valley and Its branches, if they wanted a salmon, went down I to the river with spear or gaff and I took what they wanted, and did no I harm to the trout or other fish. It Is true they did not make their living ! by commercial fishing, but they did I clear up the country, build the roads and bridges and make tho valley what it Is, and they own several hundred miles of land along the river and Its I tributaries." It is hard for them to 1 understand that it is not special priv ilege for one man with a little Btrip of land, at the mouth of the river, to have the right with Belnes to catch nearly all of tho salmon that come into tho river. ' With the salmon, the steelhead and other trout are also pulled out. Granting that tho trout are all thrown back into the water, tha pounding they get by the heavy fish land with the sand they get in their gills and tho handling they get In being thrown back, they are put in such condition that very few ever see the upper river. A few steelhead with fungus growths about the head and gills, caused by handling, can be seen In some of the dead water of the upper river. The man who takes a salmon with a spear takes the fish he is after and disturbs nothing else, but under tho present laws, If he does take one salmon he will have a heavy fine to pay and his fish is taken from him, although ho may own twice the river frontago that the special privi lege man at the mouth of the river does.' If he wants salmon for break fast his only alternative is to hitch up and drive to town and get a piece of salmon at the market that was caught out of his river, shipped to Appeal to Reason H Ask any of the great army of Post urn users what influenced them to try this beverage, and the reply nine times out often will be tht they were convinced the caffeine and tannin in tea and coffee were harmful to health. 1 Some imagine it is hard to give up tea and coffee. But it isn't, with the delightful aroma and flavor of Postum at hand. This flavor somewhat resembles that of high-grade Java coffee, but there is no coffee in Postum only the nourishing goodness of wheat, skillfully processed with a small per cent of wholesome molasses. T Postum comes in two forms: Postum Cereal which has to be boiled; Instant Postumsoluble made in the cup instant ly. Some prefer one, some the other. Made right, they are alike delicious, and the cost per cup is about the same. There's better health, comfort and efficiency in POSTUM "There's a Reason" t888n::a AUTO OWNERS ATTENTION!

Portland or Seattlo, and reshlpped Into the Rogue River valley and sold at a high prlco. ' The Medford editor who takes a stand as a sportsman is all right and we want thousands more of them to whip their flies on the Rogue, but the man who tolls all day in the field and wishes to step down to the river and spear a salmon for breakfast should have his rights also. As to the finan cial side of the question, more money Is invested for fishing tackle and all that goes with the sport up the river than there is at tho mouth of the river. Many wealthy residents of the val ley were attracted here by the good fishing and many more will come, and the thirty thousand people in this valley will not allow the fish to be destroyed where they enter the nar row river, whero the conditions are totally different from salmon fishing on the large rivers. E. T. MERRILL. Port Orford Tribune: Two corps of government engineers have already j decided that Port Orford harbor Is the most suitable port for hundreds i of miles along the Pacific coast for building a harbor of refuge. . It is forecasted that the Southern Pacific Company Is preparing to go ahead with its formerly planned dou ble track electric system from Port land to Salem. Stayton, Ore., is becoming a prune and potato center.
