HOW TO TAME COCKROACHES.
Catarrh Cured.
D awson , G a ., D ec . 7 1886.
For fully nine years I had ca­
tarrh. For five years I had it in
the very worst form, how obnox­
ious that is I need not recount.
I was under treatment of one of
the most celebrated eye, ear and
throat physicians in the United
States, but he was unable to do
me any good. In despair, I re­
started to numerous ¡latent medi­
cines that I saw advertised,
but of no avail. Finally, about
six months ago I began to take
S. S. S. in sheer desperation, but
with little hope and no faith in
it. But to day I am compara­
tively well ; indeed, I have been
so benefited by the S. S. S. that,
although skeptical of its merits,
I am compelled by the benefit I
have derived from it, to testify
to its unquestioned curative pow­
ers in catarrh cases. The best
compliment I can pay it is that
I have recently recommended it
to a number of my warmest per­
sonal friends.

Gentlemen : I am an employe

of your S. S. S. for a bad case of
blood poison, and the medicine
cured me completely.

If any supposes killing deer
for their skins has been put a
stop to in southern Oregon, the
following, from the Jacksonville
Times, will show him he is mis­
taken: “Within two months
a hide dealer at Jacksonville,
purchased 3,978 pounds of deer
bides. It would require about
1,300 of these pelts to reach that
weight. Other parties in south­
ern Oregon have purchased as
many more, showing that in all
about 2.600 deer have been kill­
ed for their skins only.” Tho
state should offer a premium for
the pelts of the scoundrels who
thus wantonly slaughter deer for
the trifling amount they receive
on the skius.
