CANCER CUREO AND A LIFE SAVED By the Persistent Use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla "I was troubled for years with a sore on my knee, which several physicians, who treated me, called a cancer, assuring me that nothing could be done to save my life. As a last resort, I was induced to try Ayer's .Sarsaparilla, and, after tak ing a nunib.'r of bottles, the sore began jto disappear anl my general health improve. I persisted in this treatment, until the sore was en tirely healed. Since then) I use Ayer's Sarsaparilhi occasionally as a tonic and blood-purifier, and, in deed, it seems as though I could not keep house without it." Mrs. S. A. Fields, Bloomfield, Ta.

Pleasure Tarns to Despair, Awoke In Time. but lie Victob, Or., Sept. 28, 1896. Mister . Editor : I have been a regular subscriber to your paper every eince it started and always liked it first rate, 'till this silver question came up. Then for sure I didn't like it a bit. You see, when they first begun to talk free silver, it stuck me just where I lived. At least I thought it did. You see I have always found silver a mighty good money. I never could get half enough of it. So it just seemed to me that if they would just go ahead and make it free I'd be the happiest man alive, but that's all changed now. I've had a vision a real vision. - It came about this way. I put in tbe day last Wednes day diggin taters, worked from daylight 'till dusk as hard as ever I could, ate a big mess of salmon for supper, then went to bed ; but instead of sleeping I dreamed. I'd been thinking about sil ver all day, so I dreamed about taters and silver all nigbt. V I dreamed that there was a very tall smooth-looking man came along and offered to by my taters. Said he would give me a dollar a bushel' if I'd take the money he had, so I axed him what kind of money he had. He said, real pleas ant like, I have some notes of band due, one day after date, and signed by Col. Sinnott, of The Dalles, Or. Now I've known the colonel fr a long time, but I didn't know that he ever gave his note. Still I thought that this is aU right. Jnd sent this fellow out to by truk for the hotel and didn't want to send tbe money by this chap. So I spoke up and said : "All right, mister, I'll take the notes. They are as good as gold to me. How many taters do you want?" He eaid he'd take all I had. ( So me and the boys lit into weighen' em as fast as we could, while the tall man sat there on the fence keepin' tall'. When we got through be counted it up and there were sixty bushels. So he put bis brand on the sacks and handed me twelve $5 notes, each' signed by Col. Sinnott. My, didn't I feel rich. Won der I didn't wake up, I felt so good ; but I didn't, I dreamed on. Dreamed that I went to The Dalles next day and took the notes to Colonel to cash. When I got to the Umatilla house it seemed to me that everything looked kinder dis erted and broke up like. After waitiu' a god while the colonel came in, ehuk hands as usual, but I .noticed that he looked kinder disturbed like. , After ex cbangin' tbe.time of day, etc., I men tioned the notes and later deal, thank ing him tor the good price I had re ceived. Bat he stopped me short off and said: ."My friend you have made a sad mistake. Those notes are not worth the paper they are written on. am bankrupt." Now I've known the Colonel long enough to know that he can joke when he wants to, so I laughed and said ; "That's all right, lets go and take a little wine." "Hold on," says the Colonel, "you mistake, I am serious. I haven't a cent to my name." I saw from his looks that he was in earnest, so without my asking he told me all about it. Says he : "You remember that historical fish story of mine?" "Oh yes," says I. "Well," says he, "I told it one time to my sorrow, yes, I may say, to my utter ruin.- When Bryan was through here two years ago I told it to bim. His admirers here have felt pretty sore about it tor some time and finally in duced the city council to pass an ordi nance compelling me to sign $5 notes due one day after date to whosoever could furnish the paper, and to continue signing as long as paper conld be se cured. Tbe upshot of the whole matter was, Jacobsen landed here tbe day after the ordinance passed with about a ton of paper all filled out with my signature. I redeemed them as long as my wealth lasted. You are too late." I tried to offer some consolation, but failed. Says I: "Colonel, seems tome the council have treated you ' very un farely," "Yes," says he, "so they have. Still you silver lunatics propose to give Uncle Sam a dose of tbe same kind of medicine." - Just then the old woman nudged me in the ribs, and said: "Wake up, John, it's gittin' daylight a'nd I do believe them taters you dug yesterday got frost bit last night.' "Ta'ers be dinged," says I. ' But then I got up right quick and raadd the' fire, while the old woman growled about the taters being left on covered over night.. But say, Mister Editor, I'm done with free silver. That dream opened my eyes. How is Uncle Sam goin' to make all of the silver dol lars as good as gold unless he has the power to say how many to make. .You were all right at first Mister Editor, only I was too punkin'-headed to see it. Send the paper right along to yours truly,' ' -. - - "Mossback." First Iady to Make tbe Trip. F. H. Kearney and wife have returned from a bicvele tour, which gained for 4 Mrs. Kearney tbe distinction of being the first lady who has ever ridden across i the sand wastes between Pendleton and Tbe Dalles. It was all due to her own ingenuity that she was enabled to make the trip easily and arrived in The Dalles not much fatigued. Mr., and Mrs. Kearney left Pendleton a month ago'and arrived homo a few days ago. They ' rode 800 miles on their wheels. From The Dalles thev went to Portland on the boat and and then took wheels again for a tour through the valley, visiting Salem and several towns along the roid. On the way to The Dalles, Mrs. Kearney noticed that the tires of . her bicycle cut into the sand so us to make it probable that she could not stand the trip. She suggested to Mr. Kearney that some of l In- u ind be let out of tbe tires, and after a iiule experimentation, both adopted the expedient and 'with "fiat tires," and wheels running almost on their runs thev made the journey over the Band desert with ease and speed! East Oregou:.;n. The Free Coinage Problem. The Free Coinage Problem is the title of a penny magazine or pamphlet by Lewis N. Dembitz of Louisville, Ky. It contains one of the fairest and best discussions of the money question to be had at any price. It contains in very brief space and in simple language as much of the early history of money, especially in this country, as is neces sary to understand the present situa tion. It discusses in a logical, unbiased and impartial manner the probable ef fects of the proposed free coinage legis lation upon all classes, and especially tipon farmers and wage earners. It pre sents a vivid picture of tbe present hard lot of many farmers and shows what kind of money will be for their best in terests. This little 48 page magazine contains more of monetary history and facts and more of sound argument than - many books which cost 100 times its price. It makes it possible for any intelligent la borer or farmer who can spare 1 cent to become well informed on the money question before he casts his vote. Ten or 15 copies can be ordered at .once for 10 or 15 persons. Otherwise it will cost 2 cents to send 1 cent. Address Present Problems Publishing Co., 57 Park place, New York city.
