Cherry PICTORIAL,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping-
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption,

I |. ! |.
M Among the great
I4HEXA discoveries of modern
~ I l3<fEA science, few are of
va more real value to
WSH Mmankind than this eff
NIIwh XIX fectual remedy for all
WK ~diSeases of the Throat
M and Lungs. A vast
MN trial Of its virtues,
EZl%N throughout this and
NRWNH other countries, has
shown that it does
surely and efectually
control them. The testimony Of our best cti-
2ens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that
CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of Consumption,
cured by this preparation, are publicly known,
so remarkable as hardly to be believed, were
they not proven beyond dispute. AS a remedy,
it is adequate, on which the public may rely
for full protection. By curing Coughs, the
forerunners of more serious disease, it saves un-
numbered lives, and an amount of suffering not
to be computed. 1t challenges trial, and con-
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand rs q protection against the early
and unperceived attack Of Pulmonary Alice
tions, which are easily met at first, but which
become incurable, and too often fatal, if neg
lected. Tender lungs need this defence; and it
is unwlse to be without it. AS n safeguard to
children, amid the distressing diseases which
beset the Throat and Chest of childhood, CHERRY
PICTORIAL is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudes are rescued from premature graves,
and saved to the love and affection centred on
them. 1t acts speedily and surely against ordi-
nary colds, securing sound and health-restoring
sleep. No one will suffer troublesome Infiu.
enZa and painful Bronchitis, when they know
how easily they can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation no cost or toll
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost
possible perfection. 1t may be confidently relied
upon as possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited, and capable of producing cures as
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.

San FRANCISCO, April 30.--Chas. How
ard, president OF the Spring Valley Wa
ter Co., came before the water commits.
sioncrs in open session to-day with u
proposition to sell the works of the com.
pany to the city, in conformity with mr..
rsngemcnts Of the commissioners to re-
ceiving proposals for supplying the city
with suitable works. The price demand.
ed WIS $4,000, 900, with rather an odd
reservation that the company should
have the privilege of asking less if they
desired. On being asked for an expla.
nation ofthis singular proviso, and re.
quested to name the lowest sum for
which the company would sell out, Mr..
Howard declined to name the minimum
rate, saying that 10000 WAS considered
a fair price, but intimating that possibly
q less amount might be accepted. The
commissioners did not commit them.
ss4Ves to any definite action on the prop.
osition, but the general tenor Of the dis.
cussion seemed to show that the propo-
sal failed to meet with approval, and
was in fact likely to create a feeling
"yerse TO the Spring Valley interests.

WHERE I NAVE BEEN.

The following beautiful poem, written

sented to us for publication by Mrs, G.
Lawton, of the Seattle nursey.-ED:
have sailed the mighty ocean,
Travelled many miles by laud,
From stern Alaska's iCe.Dound shore
10 Peru's silvcry stnnd;
From the rough and rugged Andes
Northward up the coast we 20,
From South through Central America
Crossed the Gulf to Mexico.
have visited the Islands,
North and South old Neptune'S line,
Aud have seen the tropics splcndor
In their glory most divine.
have seen lis golden sunset,
In sky Of molten gold,
And have stood and glzed enraptured
Al their beauties would unfold
Oceans, houses lakes on lire,
Flaming forms, to break the spell,
OF your beauties, Southern sunset,
No human tongue can tell
! have hunted on Vancouver,
And the shores of Puget Sound,
And have shot the elk aud panther
That in forests dark abound.
Through golden California,
Mid stern Nevada's hills,
Where We blasted out the silver,
Heard the clashing Of her mills;
From thence 10 Arizona
Where the Gila slowly flows,
And where the dread Apache
Numbering, plundering. sCalping,
O'er the hot and sandy desert goes;
With nothing 10 be seen
But sand and sky and alkali,
And sage-brush mixed between,
For many mile you ride upon
That desert plain so bare,
Ere you can say, "Unsaddle, boys,
There's plenty water here"
To many such u trip like this
Would benefit their health;
Bnt alas how many lose their life
In the dreadful search for wealth.
Such Is life amid the mountains
Where ever You may 70,
And many miners story
Will prove that il Is 80.
While he speaks he grows excited,
In his eyes q new light shines
When he tells Of gold eXcitements
In the days of Forty-nine.
Arizona don't agree with me,
couldn't make stake,
So snddled up my brOnChO
And started TO Salt Lake.
Well, who can like Mormon?

And soon got up and busted
And Westward took my way.
Yet this world Is not 40 weary

And no man can tell the value
OF u faith Severely tried,
And when want will drive you to the wall
Brace up, stand Arm, be true,
Never give up, you'll come out right,
lsmy advice to you.
And so I'll keep roaming
Over hill and over dale,
Aud pasa through many dangers
That make the stemest pale
But Tn getting old and feeble,
Aud can roam no more,
Aud my little boat lies anchored
Close By Scattle's shore.

A Quica-witted Thief.
From the New York Sun

The following very clever and sublimely
impudent dodge was some time since adopt
ed by Partisan thief: A lady, entering
her apartment, discovered that man was
beneath her bed. With much presence of
mind she exclaimed: ooh, dear, what =
bore; forgot my parcel after all, !" and
presently left the room, locking the door
The thief looked out of the window, and
saw there was no escape that way, and SO he
proceeded to undress himself and get into
the bed. Before long key turned in the
door, and voice came from the bed, as the
lady, accompanied by an officer of the poll
ce, entered, asking: "Why what's all this
about?" Then, as they approached the bed
he exclaimed: "Ah, ha. see how it is
Madame ia tired of me, is she, and thinks
she'll be rid of me in this way? Well, we'll,
I'll CO." In vain the lady Indignantly
protested, and demanded his arrest. The
officer thought that it would be useless, un-
der the circumstances, to detain him, and
he was soon out of bed and away.

Probable Murder.

Last Monday night after the vote had
been counted, Michael Farley in company
with several other gentlemen went down
to Metcalfs saloon. They only remained
a few minutes and started out to go home.
Mr.. Farley started first, and when within
few feet of the door some unknown per-
son threw half brick through the sash Of
the door striking him on the forehead
Mr.. Farley was taken to the Russell House
where he was properly cared for. 1t was
found that his scull was fractured, and a
small piece of the brick still remained
in the scuil.
There has no arrests been made and We
see no extra effort made to ferret out this
depraved brute, whose home should be the
Penitentiary. Every one should go pre-
pared to defend themselves. The cemmu.
nifty at large will be under obligations to
any one who will rid them of this vile
wretch. Mr.. Farley is quiet, peaceable
citizen, and has the sympathy of all.
