A. Typical South African Store-
O. R. Larson, of Bay Villa, Sundays
lviver, Cape Colony, oondnots a store
typical of South Africa, at whicb can be
purchased anything from the proverbial
"eedle to au anchor." This store is
situated in a valley nine miles from the
nearest railway station and about
twenty five miles from the nearest town.
Mr. Larson says: "I am favored with
the custom of formers witbio a radius
of thirty miles, to many of whom I have
supplied Chamberlaiu's remedies. All
testify to their value in a household
where a doctor's advice is almost ont of
tbe question. Within one mile of my
store the population is perhaps sixty.
Of these, within the past twelve months,
no less than fourteen have been abso
lutely cured by Chhmberlain's Cough
Remedy. This must surely be a record."

Two Good Homes Stolen From
Chinaman.
Tuesday afternoon Sheriff Shutt re
ceived a message from McLaughlin's
saw mill, utating that two horses had
been stolen the night before. The mes
sage stated that the thieves had been
tracked as far as tho Waddell place on
Butter Creek.
Alter receiving the message, the
sheriff was soon in the saddle and rode
out to the mill.
The horses belonged to Joe McLaugti
lin's Chinese cook at the mill and were
stolen Monday night. The animals
were valued at $200.
Arriving at the mill, Mr. Shutt found
that the tracks leading to the Waddell
place were not made by the thieves.
He hunted all dav Wednesday, but was
unable to find a trace of the miscreants
or the missing horses. ' Mr. Shutt is of
the opinion that the horses were kept in
the timber and were taken into Grant
county. The rains obliterated all tracks
The sheriff is of the opinion that
there is an organized band of horse
thieves in the vicinity where the horses
were taken. -
A. band of 100 goats were stolen
srom the Rogue River farm of
William Bybee a few nights ago,
and no trace of the thief can be
found.
