Oi) THE EXCELLENCE OF SYBUP OF HGS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also to the care and skill with which it is manufactured by scientific processes known to the California Fig Svkup Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the importance of purchasing1 the true and original remedy. As the genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured by the Califohnia Fio Syrup Co. only, a knowledge of that fact will assise one in avoiding1 the worthless imitations manufactured by other pa ties. The high standing of the Cali fornia Fjo Sykup Co. with the medi cal profession, and the satisfaction which the genuine Syrup of Figs has given to millions of families, makes the name of the Company a guaranty of the excellence of its remedy.

Deafness Cannot DeLCurcd by local applications, aa they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There ia only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, aud when it is en tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and thia tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine caess out of ten are caused by catarrh, which ia nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous sur faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars ; free. F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O.

The delinqent taxes of Wasco connty, as shown on th6 rolls now in the hands of the sheriff are $60,000, an amount al most equal to the indebtedness of the county. Every citizen will doubtless admit that this state of affairs should not exist, and that all taxes should be collected. On account of hard times in the past the county court Las Bhown leniency to taxpayers, but that leniency has reached the limit, and the court cannot wait longer on delinquents to mako settlements For this reason a warrant has been attached to each de linquent roll commanding' the eheriff to collect all taxes by seizure and sale of property. With a bountiful crop" now in sight, there can no longer be any rea sonable excuse for the non-payment oi taxes. The sheriff is bound bv oath to comply with the terms of the warrants attached to the tax rolls for the collec tion thereof, and has no option in the matter. Delinquent taxpayers can save the cost of seizure and sale of property by settling their taxes at once. Robert Keei.y, Sheriff and Tax Collector ior Wasco County. Dated, August 4, 189S. ESTRAY.
