A Common Cold
Is often the beginning of serious affec
tions of the Throat, Bronchial Tubes,
and Lungs. Therefore, the importance
of early and effective treatment cannot
be overestimated. Ayer's Cherry Pec
toral may always be relied upon for the
speedy cure of a Cold or Cough.
Last January I was attacked with a
severe Cold, which, by neglect and fre
quent exposures, became worse, finally
settling on my lungs. A terrible cough
soon followed, accompanied by pains In
the chest, from which X suffered intense
ly. After trying various remedies, with
out obtaining relief, I commenced taking
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, and was
' Speedily Cured.
I am satisfied that this Temedy saved my
life. Jno. Webster, Pawtuckct, E. I.
I contracted a severe cold, which
suddenly developed into Pneumonia,
presenting dangerous and obstinate
symptoms. My physician ordered the
use of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. His in
structions wero followed, and the result
was a rapid and permanent cure.
H. E. Stimpson, Rogers Prairie, Tex.
Two years ago I suffered from arsevere
Cold, which settled on my Lungs. I con
sulted various physicians, and took the
medicines they prescribed, but received
only temporary relief. A friend induced
me to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. After
taking two bottles of this medicine I was
cured. Since then I have given the Pec
toral to my children, and consider it
The Best Remedy
for Colds, Coughs, and all Throat and
Lung diseases, ever used in my family.
Robert Vanderpool, Meadville, Pa.
Some time ago I took a slight Cold,
which, being neglected, grew worse, and
settled on my Lungs. I had a hacking
cough, and was very weak. Those who
knew me best considered my life to bo
in great danger. I continued to suffer
until I commenced using Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral. Less than one bottlo of this
valuable medicine cured me, and I
feel that I owe the preservation of my
life to its curative powers. Mrs. Ann
Lockwood, Akron, New York.
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is considered,
here, the one great remedy for all diseases
of the throat and lungs, and is more
in demand than any other medicine of its
class. J. F. Roberts, Magnoli3, Ark. tt

"IS A NUT-SHELL."
Editor Astebian:
The liquor traffic and drunken
ness are two separate and dis
tinct questions. They have, of
themselves, little or no connec
tion whatever. The laws of trade
should regulate one, while the
laws of health and a sound morali
ty should control the other." To
buy and sell liquors under certain
legal restrictions, is as sacred a
right as to buy and sell any article
of merchandise. " It is as clearly
interwoven in the commerce of
our country as any other business.
A law against the manufacture and
sale of whisky, beer, etc., is in di
rect violation of tho rights of the
citizen.
Prohibitory liquor laws are un
just, unwise, and impolitic. They
are wrong in principle and against
publio policy. Those who advo
cate the enactment of prohibitory
liquor laws are the enemies of
commerce. Their interests, if
they have any, are not identified
with those of the enterprising,peo
ple of the country. The ideas of
such people, respecting tho tern;
perance question are born of fa
naticism. Drunkenness is a disease, con
traoted by an over indulgence in
intoxicating drinks. No legisla
tion can prevent it or effect its
cure. It is not n matter for legis
lation at all. In order that a cure
may be effected the laws of hy
giene will have to be resorted to,
and not those of a penal human en
actment. What man needs more than any
thing else, in properly solving the
question of temperance, is a cor
rect knowledge of the proper
means to employ to prevent the
disease in the human family. No
law, however severe, can be en
acted that will do it. If we would
have our people abstain from in
toxicants, and become sober men
and women, we must educate them
into it.
The worst enemy of temperance
to-day in the country is the man
or woman who is trying to legis
late drunkenness out of the coun
try instead of educating it out. A
penal statute has never yet re
formed anyone. Criminal law is
but a terror to- evil-doers; it is w
an educator in morals of any
pie.
Fanaticism is not temperan. -,
nor can it ever be. The fanatic is
the enemy of society. The in
stincts of such are, in a measure,
brutal, and coupled with the un
holy desire to do wrong. Fanati
cism is, in itself, the worst form of
intemperance.' Its mission is to
deprive human beings of the rights
and privileges which are justly
theirs.
Temperance laws are impractic
able, as well as laws of any other
kind, unless the people whom they
are made to govern are educated
in temperance and morality. Tem
perance, like any other virtue, is a
thing to be learned, and not one
that may be forced' into tho mind
by the stern logic of penal laws. "
Colic.
Persons, and especially children, are
subject to this agonizing complaint
which often comes on suddenly in the
night and without any previous warn
ing. Simmons Liver Regulator should
always be at hand. A single dose will
generally allay the pain. It never fails
in giving relief. It is harmless, and
can be given with safety to a child of
theienderestage.
A New Mexico paper mourned
the death of judge Butschofsky.
That jurist was represented by his
eulogist to have "awoke feeling
better, took a dose of medicine
and died." An esteemed contem
porary of tho eulogist thereupon
vituperated the statement and
proved by affidavits that the judge
awoke feeling worse, took a drink
of water aud thereupon died.
They are particular about the facts
when a man dies with his boots off
in that country.
Every family should be provid
ed with a bottle of Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral. It is a specific for colds
and coughs.
New Hampshire has a law to
suppress lightning-rod agents. Or
egon needs no such law, for among
our other charms we have no dan
gerous lightning.
No fictitious certificates, but sol
id facts'teatify the marvelous cures

The 0. B. & N. Lease..
1 Copies of the much-talked
3f
lease Ol cue vickuu naunav
Navigation company to the Ore
gon onort Lane anu uniuu xracinc
railways have now been made pub
lic. They show that the company
leases the entire property for
ninety-nine years from January 11,
1887, the.lessee companies being
given the right to deduct and re
tain from any amount becoming
due under the lease, any sum
which may be necessary for pro
tecting their rights under the
lease. The short Line is to pre
serve the railways, steamships, etc.,
devised in good repajr, well in
sured, and will supply additional
rolling stock that may be needed.
Continued default for thirty days
by the lessee will enable the leaser
to resume its property. The Union
Pacific comnanv fierures through
out the instrument as the Union
company. It guarantees fulfill
ment of the obligations assumed
by the Oregon Short Line com
pany, and in order to guard
against doubt as to the power
to bind itself, it is agreed
that tho property shall be
managed and controlled in the
interest of all parties to the lease
until some act of congress or ju
dicial decision affirms the legality
of the guaranty. In case, however,
within ten years, such affirmation
shall not be forthcoming, or in
case of default, the Oregon com
pany may, at its option, by notice
or in writing to the presidents of
the Short Line and Union Pacific,
declare this lease at end, room is
left by the following paragraph
for the entrance of the Northern
Pacific into the lease: "The said
Short Line and Union companies
may, in their discretion, and by
consent of the Oregon company,
at any time during the continu
ance of the agreement, cuter into
and perform any contract what
ever not inconsistent with the
Northern Pacific Railway oom
pany, or any other person or cor
poration, in relation to the ni m
agement or operation of s:tii rail
road, steam vessels or o'lu-r
property f said Oregon company
hereby devised.'
COXCEKTRATV YOUR VITALITY.
One of the secrets of health is the
concentration of vitality. The re
cruiting of the vital principle is done
effectually by BnAXDKETii s Pills.
"Health finds happinees in the mere
sense of existence." BitAXrmETii's
Fills help nature to reassert her own
when she ha3 been forced to vacate
her stronghold in the body. When
an enemy attacks a fort all the
forces are concentrated at the point
of attack to resist the onslaught.
So with the body. Brandretii's
Pills concentrate all one's vitality to
throw off the encroaching disease.

The Olympia Transcript says
that Tacoma is not the original
name of the terminus, but the In
dian name was Che-bau-lip. This
is the "unkindest cut of all." Just
think of Mt. Rainier appearing on
all the maps as Mt. Chebaulip.
But then maybe the Transcript is
mistaken, and we sincerely hope
so for the sake of the mountain.
