been engagel i-ince hist May.
The inspected thousands of acres!
of alleged swamp lands in the.
Lakcview and swamp land districts
and found about one-half to be ac-j
tual swamp or overflowed, while
the remainder is dry- They disagree
as to tlie character of about o,UUUj

will make separate reports, Shack-J

and Sweek to the governor, re
garding the s'une. The remainder

Messrs. Sweek and Shackelford
have nearly finished their individ

them to their respective head
quarters before January 1,
each conntersigsiimr th oth
er's report, except, of course,
where there is dispute.
Messrs. Elliott and liichmond,
two other land agents, are at The
Dalles, having completed examin
ation of land in The Dalles, Ore
gon City and Lakcview districts.
Their reports, it is said, agree
throughout. Over half of the land
examined by them was found, to
be not swamp.
As a result of the investigations
of the agents, l."0,000 acres of
land, at a rough estimate, will be
lost to the state, but titles to the
land will be established, and dis
putes which have arisen over
swamp laud matters since ISliO will
be largelv settled.
ft is expected that patents for
lands declared swamp will be is
sued by the government to the state
immediately after the submission
and examination of these reports.

The following Is a true account of what your
S. S. S.hasdoneforour little daughter, Hassl.
now four years old. When 13 months old &
lump appeared on her heel, which slowly grow
larger. The family physician thought It ra
caused by a piece of broken gl.m or neeula;
but failed to bring anything to light. Tn
child became feebler all the time, seeming to
lose the use of her leg, and Anally quit walk
ing entirely. The middle finger and thumb
of either hand became enlarged, the fleih be
coming hard. The hip Jolnt3 became IotoIt
(xl, S3 that when seventeen months old sh
could not stand, having lost tha use of le?
and arm. Partial curvature of the spins also
followed. The nervous system was wrecked,
muscles contracted, and there was general
wasting of flesh and muscle. At eighteen
months of ago she was placed under the
treatment of a prominent physician of Bos
ton, Mass., but at the end of ten months she
had declined to such a degree that she was In
a dying condition. This was in April, 1336
We took the child away not knowing what
to do. In this dreadful dilemma we were
over-persuaded by friends to try"ona bot
