The Favorite
JeJicine for Throat and Lung Diffi
culties has long been, and still is, Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral. It cures" Croup,
Whooping Cough, Bronchitis, and
Asthma; soothes irritation of the.
Larynx and Fauces ; strengthens the
Vocal Organs; allays soreness of the
Lungs; prevents Consumption, and,
even in advanced stages of that disease,
relieves Coughing and induces Sleep.
There is no other preparation for dis
eases of the throat and lungs to he com
pared with this remedy.
"My wife had a distressing cough,
with pains in the side and breast, we
tried various medicines, hut none did
her any good until I got a bottle of
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, which has cured
her. A neighbor, Mrs. Qlenn, had the
measles, and the couch was relieved by
the use of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. I
have no hesitation in recommending this
Cough Medicine
to every one afflicted." Robert Horton,
Foreman Headlight, Morrillton, Arb
"I have been afflicted with asthma
tor forty years. Last spring I was taken
with a violent cough, which threatened
to terminate my days. Every one pro
nounced me in consumption. I deter
mined to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
Its effects were magical. I was immedi
ately relieved and continued to improve
until entirely recovered." Joel Bullard,
Guilford, Conn.
" Six months ago I had a severe hem
orrhage of the lungs, brought on by an
incessant cough which deprived me of
sleep and rest. I tried various reme
dies, but obtained no relief until I be
gan to take Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. A
few bottles of this medicine cured me."
Mrs. . Coburn, 19 Second St., Lowell,
Mass.
"For children afflicted with colds,
coughs, soro throat, or croup, I do not
know of any remedy which will give
more speedy relief than Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral. I have found it, also, invalu
able In cases of Whooping Cough."

CATCHING SEALS AND SEALIONS.
Captain Paul Boytou has re
turned irom where he has been
for the past week in quest of seals
and sea lions for Lincoln park in
Chicago. In reply to an Oregonian
reporter's question as to his suc
cess, the captain said:
"I found the sea lions and seals
very wild, the former being simply
ferocious. While I was at the
mouth of the Columbia the
weather was very rough. I Spent a
day at Tillamook head and cap
tured four sea lions, as fine speci
mens of the animal as I have ever
seen. They were, as I have said,
very wild, but with my method I
found no trouble in taking them.
"The trail over the mountain
that I traversed to reach the head
is one of the roughest I think on
the face of the earth. It took me
eight hours to travel seven miles,
but the sight that met my eyes on
reaching the rock well repaid me
for my trouble. The rock was
fairly alive with sea lions, both
large and small. The four I took
were captured with very little
trouble, but 1 found on starting
for home that I would have to
abandon them. The storm that
was raging had blown so many
trees across the trail that it was
impassable for pack horses. The
afternoon I spent on the rock I
could have caught all the sea lions
I wanted, but I had no use for
more than four.
"I also spent a day on Sand
island in quest of a few specimens
of the seal, I found an abundance
of them and took two, all I wanted,
with very little trouble, although
they were very wild, having: been
shot at so many times by passing
fishermen. I have been advised
be the fishermen to wait until the
canning season begins, when any
numberofsealswili.be caught in
the fish nets which I can purchase
at a comparatively low figure.
My intention is to wait for a few
weeks to let the angry Pacific
quiet down a little, when I will be
able to get what I want. In a
couple of days I will have two
cougars ready to ship. After
shipping my animals east and giv
ing my exhibition at Seattle J will
depart for the east, where I have
dates to give exhibitions."
As the reporter was taking his
leave the captain called him back
and said: "While on my way to
Tillamook "rock I stopped at a
ranch at the mouth of Elk creek,
at which place my hest showed me
two hie preservers that had drifted
ashore. On one was painted Earl
Granville, St. Johns, New Bruns
wick, and on the other Benj.
Sacall, 2,921, J. O. K. T. It is
a mystery to me and to others to
whom I spoke, where the life pre
servers came from, unless it be
that the two ships have been
wrecked and their crews have
gone in a body to Davy Jones's
locker."
Catarrh Cared,
A clergyman, otter years of. suffer
ing from that loathsome disease, Ca
tarrh, and vainly trying every known
remedy, at last found a recipe which
completely cured and saved him from
death. Any sufferer from this dread
ful disease sending a self addressed
stamped envelope to Prof. J. A. Law
rence, 88 Warren St., New York City,
will receive the recipe free ot charge.
Private Jas. K. Belton, an in
mate of the confederate soldiers'
home, at Richmond, Va., tells a
startling story. He says that when
employed as a diver in getting
copper out of the wrecked confed
erate ram Merrimac in 1873, he
dived into the forecastle and found
the skeletons of two men, manacled
to the floor. He supposed they
were members of the crew incar
cerated for violation of some rule,
and when the craft was sunk were
forgotten.
Impaired Circulation.
DR. FLINTS REMEDY, by exercising
a regulative influence over the action or
the heart and the general circulation,
will check at once bleeding from the
lungs, 'and will cure dropsy ef those
organs. Descriptive treatise with each
bottle ; or. address Mack Drug Co. N. Y.
More than twenty million acres
of land in Washington territory,
or nearly one-half the whole area,
remain unsurveyed.
DYSPEPSIA, DESPAIK, DEATH.
These' are the actual steps which fol
low Indigestion. Acker's English Dys
pepsia Tablets will both check and cure
this most fearful of diseases. Guaran

The Pish Commission.
San Francisco, March 10
Livingstone Stone, superintendent
of the United States fish commis
sion of the Pacific coast, who has
just returned from McCIoud river,
reports success in the distribution
and collection of eggs in the dif
ferent rivers of the coast.
Dnring the past year one mill
ion and a half of salmon eggs were
taken from the McCIoud river
hatchery. Nearly all of the eggs
were hatched and placed back in
the stream.
He states that from the Willam
ette river near Oregon City, 5,000-
000, salmon eggs were obtained
during the fall. Uf the 5,000,000,
between 80 and 90 per cent were
hatched, ana the fish put into the
Clackamas river.
The commission has just re
ceived a car load of whitefish eggs
from the great lakes, which will be
distributed in the Columbia river
and its tributaries, and the Cceur
d' Alene lakes.
The commission expects soon to
receive a car load each of white
fish, lobsters, eels and striped bass.
Other car loads of fish eggs, of
which the coast rivers lack suf
ficent quantities, are also expected
to arrive.
Seven new stations have been
established throughout the coast,
and $140,000 has been expended
in the construction of hatcheries,
and in the collection of eggs and
their hatching.
BETTEU THAN BLOODY ItATTIXS.
General Wheatcrofc Nelson, says : My
experience In the English army as well
as in America, convinces me that noth
ing so thoroughly purlfiess the blood or
adds to health, vigor and life as Ack
er's English Blood Elixir." This great
Remedy Is sold under a positive guar
antee by J. W. Conn, Druggist.
The laws of Oregon now provide
thatif any person shall commit the
crime of larceny by stealing a dog,

of shall be punished. by imprison

the penitentiary, or from three
months to one year in the county
jail, or a fine of from $50 to Sl,
000. t'AUELESS MOTHERS.
Many mothers have permitted their
clildren to die before their eyes when
they might have been saved. Any
mother who keeps house without a bot
tle of Acker's English Baby Soother at
hand, runs a risk which she may some
time regret. It has saved tho lives of
thousands of children, and is doing so
every year. J. W. Conn, Druggist.
A small piece of Limburger
cheese carried about one's person
will drive away the disagreeable
odor of tobacco smoke, so offensive
to delicate nostrils. Time.

We hold positive proof that Acker's
English Blood Elixir cures nil blood
poisons where cheap sarsaparillas and
so-called purifiers fail. Knowing this,
we will sell it to all who call at our
store on a positive guarantee.

Doctor Walter K. Hammond says: "Af
ter a long experience I have come to
the concfusion that two-thirds of all
deaths from coughs, pneumonia and
consumption, might be avoided if Ack

carefully used in time." This wonder
