" For two years I suffered from a se
vere pain in my right side, and had
other trouhles caused hy a torpid liver
aud dyspepsia. After giving several
medicines a fair trial without a cure, I
hugan to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I
was greatly benefited hy the hrst bottle,

Another marked effect of the use of this
medicine was the strengthening of my
si 'lit." Mrs. Carrie Adams, Holly

" I had a drj- scaly humor for years, J
and suffered terribly"; and. as my broth
er and sister were similarly afilicted. I
presumo the malady is hereditary. Last
winter. Dr. Tyron, (of Fernandina, '
Fla.,) recommended me to take Ayer's
Sarsapa.rilla, and continue it for a year.
For live months I took it daily. I have j
not had a blemish upon my body for the
last three months." T. E. "Wiley, 11G

. "Last fall and winter I was troubled
with a dull, heavy pain in my side. I
did not notice it much at first, but it
gradually grew worse until it became
almost unbearable. During the latter
part of this time, disorders of the stom
ach and liver increased my troubles. I
began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and,
after faithfully "continuing the use ol
this metticino lor some months, the pair
disappeared " and I was complctclj
cured." Mrs. Augusta A. Furbush

A Trip to Cook's Inlet. !
h.st Thursday, a Cathlamet Gu zelte
representative had the pleasuro of run
usu across Wm. Arnold of Hurces' can
nery, who gave us a verj' interesting
account of what Le saw, heard and did, ,
on his trip to Alaska, from which he has
just ictnrnrd. Mr. Arnold said: ;
"We left San Francisco, March 2.", said ,
after an uneventful voyage, we arriwd !
in Cook's Inlet, about a month later. i
Onr cannery, belonging to the Cutting j
Packing Co., was the only one in the
Inl.rl and packed 33,000 cases of salmon.
ueniiira stalling .VJiuu vi uiuicm ui
bellies. We had a splendid run of fish,
and could have put up many more cases,
had not the vessel that, was bringing us
onr tin got disabled, which compelled us
to c'..-e down after running Just two
months and a hulf. The Alaskan salmon
will average larger than these of the
Columbia river, but are not as fatai.d
will not weigh as much. We had a crew
of 107 Chinamen in the cannerv.
We left Cook's Inlet Augns't ilth, on
our rt turn journey home. 'I he rchconer
that we were in got disabled soon after
leaving Kodiak, and in order to git at
the leak, (!20 cases of salmon and 200
.sacks of coal, that was being taken to
San Francisco for analysis, were thrown
overboard to the fishes. After an im
mense deal of labor the leak was par
tially stopped, and by keeping the
pumps constantly going we were able to
keep her afloat. After a verj' exciting
experience of 3) days, we arrived safely
in San Francisco.
At one time wo thought we must surely
go down, with tho waves breaking over
us even' minute and the water gaining in
ihe hold, inch by inch. After getting
the leak partially stopped tho captain
called the passengers together and asked
whether he should make for Port Town-Sc-nd,
or keep on their course. The latter
motion prevailed as before shown.
On tho passage down, six Chinamen
died from the effects of opium. As one
after the other died, they were placed in
a largo box made of heavy tin and her
metically sealed up, like so many salmon
in a case. Tho company would havo for
feited a 1,000 ahead, if they had thrown
them overboard. As tho company un
dertook to bring them back, dead or
alive.
There is a large deposit of anthracite
coalnear tho cannery, which is pro
nounced by experts to be equal to any in
theworld. One vein was found to be twelve
feet in depth and the supply seems ut
terly .cxhaustless. It is only a question
of timo when capital will develope these
coal mines and supply .our cities
with the best coal extant At present
these coal lands are unsurveyed.
This is one of the best countries in the
world for sportsmen. Bear, moose and
reindeer abound. 'Whilo thero 1 killed
seven bears, one of which weighed 700
pounds.
Tho weather where we were varied very
much. One day it would be warm and
bright and tho next day cold and disa
greeable, and to make matters worse,
mosquitoes by the million. During the
timo we were there it was light all tho
time, but in the winter it gets dark very
early. Tho coldest weather they have is
in December, when tho thermometer
reaches W) to 60 degrees below zero and
the winter lasts for half tho year.
Tho timber around Cook's Inlet is
small and scrubby, and would average,
say two feet in circumference and about
forty feet in height, and is not of much
value.
Tho ground is rich and will grow vege
tables of all kinds. The planting is
done in April and May, and by August
tho crops are matured. 1 saw cabbages,
potatoes and other vegetables growing
nicely.
Alaska is one of America's richest pos
sessions and only needs the touch of cap
ital to unfold its manifold riches. I ex
pect to return in March."

Eighteen lumber yard discontinuances

lumber demand in Oklahoma was being
wildly overestimated.

Ten Tips on How to Lnok Vonv Rs.t.
Heliotrope will be the color of the win
ter in all the beautiful old tints and
many new ones from lilac and dahlia
i hrough violet and reddish purple and
Persian mauve.
Fur bands will be extensively us?d ou
cloth and gowns this winter.
High collars are again m vogue m
spite of the indications daring the sum
mer that a change to low cut necks was
to be made.
Wraps aru verj short in ihe back and
long, sometimes reaching the bottom of
tho skirt, in front.
Tho distinguishing characteristic of
head covering is lowness of crown and a
corresponding depression, of (rimming
for bonnets and largeness of shape and
gent-rosity of garniture for hats.
Bmid is still very much used to deco
rite carriage and walking costumes.
Th2 heavy Knssiaii hr.iid se.'.in to bo
preferred this season.
Urilliantine will be a popular dic-a
fabric the coming season. The new
brands ara silk finished and fall in 1ns
trons folds, which quality renders them
particularly suitable for straight skirts
and directoiro redingotes.
Pretty afternoon dresses of cashmero
and camel's hair are made very effective
by ihe use of velvet or heavily-repped
ribbons, these being more favored for
such decoration than moire or fancy rib
bons of any sort.
The girl who has not got somo kind
of a fur caps now is behind the proces
sion. A graceful garment, quite new in style,
to be worn over an accordion-plaited
house dress, is made of velvet, lined with
either a contrasting or harmonising col
or. It has a zouave front and is sleeve
less, and is finished with long directoiro
coat tails at tho back. It i3 called the
"directoiro slip," and pat on over a
dainty gown a rich effect ia given at mod
erate expense, for the slip can be made of
five yards of velvet.
