That is to say, your lungs. Also all
your breathing machinery. Very wi u- j
derful machinery it is. Not only li: j
larger air-passages, but the thousan . r
of little tubes and cavities leading
from them.
"When these are clogged and choked
with matter which ought not to be
there, your lungs cannot half do their
work. And what they do they can
not do well.
Call it cold, cough, croup, pneumo
nia, catarrh, consumption or any of
the family of throat and nose and
head and lung obstructions, all are
bad. All ought to be got rid of. There
is "ust one sure way to get rid of
them. That is to take Boschee's
German Syrup, which any druggist
will sell yon at 75 cents a bottle.
Even if everything elso has failed
yon, you may depend upon this for
certain.
The Enclfclt Salmon JIarkct.
The Loudon Grocer of October 22d
says of the market in that city:
Salmon still finds a very firm mar
ket and transactions continue to be
reported at extreme rates, the pur
chases for the week haying been at
from 2S3 Gd per case for outside
rivers, np to 33s for Columbia river
fish in tall tins, according to brauds;
and it is also said that contracts
havo been entered into for arrival at
tho-last-nnmed price for salmon in
"flat" tins, which is exceedingly dear,
whether wo regard the exceptional
position of the article, or the prices
at which it can be retailed to the
consumer.
Of the Liverpool market the
Grocer's' Gazette of the same date
says:
There is no special feature in salm
on at present, but there is a good,
steady,regular demand.andsome large
parcels have been placed at full market-prices;
a much larger trade could
.have been done at a slight reduction,
but holders decline to make any con
cessions, and their holdings are very
limited.

riage Miss Itfary Procler to fr.
O. B. Thompson, of Astoria Ore. The

V. Peacock. The ceremony was
brier, amVwaa listened to with bated
breath by a church filled with friends.
Tho altar was tastefully and beauti
fully decorated with flowers. The
bride was attired in a neat Gobelin
blue broadcloth, with hat and gloves
en suite. Mr. and Mrs. Thomson took
the S:o9 Missouri Pacific for Sedalia,
