Nervous Prostration
Complete Recovery by the Use of -
Ayer's Sarsaparilla
" Some years ago, as a result ol too
close attention to business, my health
failed. I became weak, nervous, was
unable to look after my interests, and
manifested all the symptoms of a de
vline. I took three bottles of Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, began to impy ve at once,
and gradually increased my weight from
one hundred and twenty-five to two
hundred pounds. Since then, I and my
family have used this medicine when
needed, and we are all in the best of
health, a fact which we attribute to
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I believe my chil
dren would have been fatherless to-day
had it not been for Ayer's Sarsaparilla,
of which preparation I cannot say too
much." H. O. Hinson, Postmaster and

NEWSY LETTER FROM ANTELOPE
"What Oar Correspondent Sees and Hear
Anionic the People.
Antelope, Aug. 13, 1895.
To the Editor. Chester, the 5-year-
old son of Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Bolton,
died Sunday of spinal meningitis. The
little fellow made a brave struggle with
the disease, having- lingered eeveral
weeks. Dr. Pilkington, assisted by Dr.
Howard of Fossil, did all that medical
skill could do, and the best of nursing
was given him, but of no avail. He
passed peaceably to his last sleep.
Chester was an unusually bright little
boy, and was a favorite with all who
knew him. His parents and several
friends started with the remains Sunday
evening for The Dalles, where they will
be laid in the'ir last resting place. As
the sad procession passed the school
house, a chorus of girls assembled, sang
the two beautiful songs, "Nearer My
God to Thee" and "We Will Never Say
Good Bye in Heaven." The entire
community sympathize with the be
reaved family in their affliction.
The Antelope public school opened
Monday, Aug. 12, for a ten month's
term, with G. H. Dunn and Miss Lillie
Hinton as teachers. This is Mr. Dunn's
third year in this school and' Miss Hin
ton is known as one of Wasco county's
best teachers. The attendance was un
usually large for the time of year and
everything points t'o a prosperous and
successful school year.
Miss Myrtle Parrin returned from a
several week's outing in the mountains
to attend school at the opening.
Allen Grant moved into town Saturday
to send hia children to school.
Richard Hinton of Bakeoven, spent
Sunday in town visiting friends.
C. V. Lane, who baa been confined to
his bed for six weeks past with heart
dropsy, is able to be around again.
Mrs. Rodgers, who has been sick all
summer, is slowly improving.
Mr. Durrell has sold his butcher shop
to Ed. Miller, an expeiienced butcher,
who will take possession Wednesday.
Mr. Durrell goes to Salem t5 prepare his
stock for the state fair, after which he
will locate permanently in Spokane.
Dave Scott, who has been in the
mountains with sheep all summer, is in
town on business. He reports the grass
and feed very short and dry.
Jack Tunny has purchased the har
ness and saddlery shop, lately belonging
to Charles Parren. .
Frank Irvine and his ' daughter,
Bertha, returned Friday from a two
weeks' business and pleasure trip to The
Dalles and Portland.

mill the last of the week looking after
the interests of his new ball.

There ia more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Chenev & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken inter
nally in doses from 10 drops to a tea-
spoonful. It acts directly on the blood
mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes
timonials. Address.

There comes a time to all of us, when

sickness or overwork its invigorating
influence is surprising, promptly restor
ing health, energy and cheerful spirits.

None Bat Ayer's at the Worlds Fair.
Ayer's Sarsaparilla enjoys the extra
ordinary distinction of having bee the
only blood purifier allowed an exhibit
at the World's Fair, Chicago. Manu
facturers of other sarsaparilla sought by
every means to obtain a showing of their
goods, but they were all turned away
under the application of the rule fore
bidding the entry of patent medicines
and nostrums. The decision of the
World's fair authorities in favor of
Ayer's Sarsaparilla was in effect as fol
lows : "Ayer's Sarbaparilla is not a
patent medicine. It does not belong to
the list of nostrums. It is here on its
merits."
