The Favorite
Iedicine for Throat and Lung Diffi
culties has long been, and still is, Ayer's
Chery 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,
' i relieves Coughing and induces Sleep.
There is no other preparation for dis
eases of the throat and lungs to be com
. lared with this remedy.
""My wife had a distressing cough,
with pains in the side and breast. We
- tried, various medicines, but none did
her -any good until I got a bottle of
A yer's Cherry Pectoral, which has cured
her. A neighbor, Mrs.. Glenn, had the
measles, and the cough" was relieved by
the use of Aj'er's Cherry Pectoral. I
have no hesitation in recommending this
&Cough Medicine
to every one afflicted." Robert Horton,
Foreman Headlight, Morrillton, Ark.
" I have been afflicted with asthma
for forty years. Last spring I was taken
with a violent cough, which threatened
to terminate my days. Every one pro-
& enounced me in consumptiop. I deter-
J-mined to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
?H rIt effects were'uiagical. I was immedi
ately relieved and continued to improve
i -untiljntirely recovered." Joel Bullard,
Guilford, Conn.
VSix months ago I had a severe hem
orrhage of the lungs, brought on by an
Incessant cough which deprived ine of
Bleep anil lest. I tried various reme
dies, but obtained no relief until I be
au to take Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. A
fewbotth-s of this medicine cured me."

A ICilli3noo correspondent writes:
The first haul of herrings, amount
ing to 500 barrels, was made here
this season on August 23. The next
haul was 300, and the catch has con
tinued until to-day.
The steam tug Hose recently went
around in the lagoon, but she got oft'
safely and uninjured.
The Indians bring in quantities of
fine salmon, weighing from twenty to
thirty-five pouuds apiece, and sell
them for 80 cents per 100 pounds.
They are the variety knowu here as
the hook salmon; the reason for the
name is because the Indians catch
them with hook and line, the bait
used being herring. The present sea
eon was late for this fish, but they
are comiug in pretty plentifully now.
We make the following extracts
from the diary of Rev. J. H. Schoclt
ert, Moravian missionary on the
NuBhagak river:
June 1L Though the wind blew
hard, we went a-fishing and caught
three king salmon weighing about 100
pounds.
June 14. Brother Wolf and I
caught twenty king salmon weighiug
about 400 pounds. All but two of
them were canned, getting seven
cases of forty-eight pound cans each.
June 15. We bad a good run, catch
ing thirty-four fish which weighed
600 pounds.
June 24. Getting up early we
fished all day, catching 170 fish and
loosing fully as many as we caught.
As the net was so poor some of the
fish went right through it, leaving
the holes for others to pas3 through
it.
June 2G. A very fine day; 80 de
grees in the sun and 70 degrees in the
shade. The sun rose at 3 a. ir. and
set at 9 p. ir. We cleaned und
salted eighty-seven king salmon,
which filled six barrels and weighed
1,200 pouuds. The silver salmon and
other fish we put out to dry.
July 1. We caught 154 small fish
weighing from eight to fifteen pounds
apiece. .
July U. We caught 2.U fish
July 4. During the forenoon we
were kept busy in wheeling home the
fish we caught yesterday. We also
got 800 dog salmon. These are not
very good to eat. but they serve as
well as food for the dogs in winter as
any other kind. Eaoh dog of our
team will require about 1,500 fish n3 a
winter supply, aud we have ten dogs.

THE OSATCR'S DESCENT '

An Episode that Jin Backs Fonnd Very
Imres3ive.
Down in soulhwe3t Missouri fonr
or five years ago a town had all ar
rangements made to whoop'er up on
the glorioii3 Fourth. The citizens
bad contributed in n liberal spirit,
the day was fine, and the crowd large
and enthusiastic. The orator of the
day v?a3 a slim, cadaverous looking
man from St. Joe. To stand off and
look him over you'd have bet your
last dollar that an old gander could
have ruu him nil around a ten acre
field. Therj were some lofty spirits
in towu that day, and one of Hiem
was Jim Buoks, a mixture of patri
otism, whisky, high jump, and rough-and-tumble.
Jim sized the orator
up, determined to have some fnn
with him, and took a seatj directly in
front of bint as he stood on the plat
form to speak. The orator hadn't
spoken 100 words before Jim inter
rupted bim. He did this twice more
and was warned to go slow. He
didn't go much on dreams or warn
ings, however, and watched for an
other opportunity. Pretty soon tho
orator said:
"And so this little baud of Pilgrim
Fathers set out with stout hearts and
unwavering faith in search of "
"In search of skunks," interrupted
Jim.
The orator made a long jump,
lighted down on Jim Bucks, and in
side of two minutes he had bim
licked so thoroughly that Mrs. Bucks
would have paBaed him by for n splat
ter of pumpkin jelly which had
dropped from a dinner basket. When
satisfied that his work was thor
oughly done, the orator returned to
the platform and continued in the
same calm unruffled tones:"
" liberty of speech and freedom
of conscience, and they founl them
at Plymouth Rock."
He wont on and delivered a really
eloquent speech, lasting nearly an
hour, and bo was just concluding
when Jim Bucks crawled out from
under a wagon half a mile away,
where be bad been laid and queried
of those around bim:
"Say! Is that feller still speakin' or
fightin'? Durn me, buti didn't
'spose oratory included jumping Jim
BuckaNLvsjor out of bi3 body!'
