Oregon's deep draught to cross tho bir

Tho advent of tho Oregon with her
powerful battery and formidable armor

No orders were issued by the navy de
partment for the dispatch of the Oregon

wishes of Admiral Remey, who has full
authority for the disposition of the ves
sels of his fleet to meet all possible
emergencies.

Mr. J. . Lilly, a prominent citizen of

deliverence from a frightful death. In
telling of it he says.: "I was taken with
Typhoid fever, that ran into Pneumonia.
My lunga became hardened. I was so
weak I couldn't even sit up in bed.
Nothing helped me. I expected to soon
die ot Consumption, when I heard oj Dr.
King's New Discovery. One bottle gave
great relief. I continued to use it, and
now am well and strong. I can't say
too much in its praise." This marvellous

Trouble. Regular 6izes 50 cents and $1.00.
