For the benefit of suffering humanity, and in
heartfelt gratitude at the wonderful result. l
deem it only my duty to give this un ocited tes-
timony in favor of Swifts Specific My wife has
been lfllicted with hereditary Eczema or Silt
Rheum from her infancy. 1t has increased in in
tensity with each succeeding spring, and being
somewhat skilled in med cine myself, ] tried
every remedy could think of for years Sarsa-
parilla combined with cry form of Potassae,
and hundreds of other remedies, 10 ions and
alkali washes of every kind known, but they all
gave only temporary relief.
During the spring of 1SS her lower extrem-
tiles became so infamed and sore that she was
obliged To keep them constantly coated with
covering of "Fuller's Earth mixed wet and al
lowed 70 dry on. Among other things she was
tfiicted with a periodical nervous headache, oc-
curing regularly every seven days, sometimes
followed by an intermittent FLYER for weeks at
time, so that her life became a burdento her.
This spring | determined she should take $. S.
s. and follow strictly the directions in regard TO
dose diet, etc. This was about seven weeks ago.
After taking the first large bottle the disease
seemed TO increase; the burning, itching and in
fammation became unbearable. She, however.
persevered in the uce Of the medicine After Ia
king the second bottle the Inflammation began to
suhsde. After the thiTh bottle the niam mBtion
disappeared, and sore spots dried up and turned
white and scaly. and finally she brushed them off
in an impalpable white powder resembling pure
salt She is now taking the sixth bottle, three Ia
blespoonfu four times daily Every appear
ance of the disease has gone, and her flesh is be-
coming soft, white and smooth again; aud what is
more, her periodical headaches have disappeared
and she isnow, AT 50 years of age, enjoying the
only good health she has known for upwards of
10 years No wonder she declares with emf basis
that every bolt of :. 5. Is worth thousand
times its weight i'll gold.
-nf further information concerning her case
will he cheerfully given by herself at her resi-
dence, 1876 Mullctt street, er by me.

BOARD or CORRECTION.

The County Commissioners met as a
Board Of Correction last Monday The
Board was in session two days. Present.
Chairman Lowell, Commissioners Brown
and Pickett, and Phil d. McGough, clerk
Of the Board. Assessor Reinhardt was
present during the session. The assess.
ment lists Of the county were examined
and in number Of instances the taxes
of persons were raised--in the aggregate
between $4,000 and $4,000. 1t is evi.
dent from an examination Of the roll, which
Is not yet fully completed, that there will
be considerable of a falling off in the total
assessment Of the county, compared with
last years figures. This falling off is at.
tributed mainly to the depreciation OF town
property in Glendale, to the loss Of cattle
and to decrease in the valuation of sheep.
The Board Of Correction is to meet again
on Monday, October 12th, for the purpose
of correcting the assessment roll of the
county, at which meeting any tax .payer
feeling aggrieved will have an opportunity
to present his grievance.

CHEAP JOB PRINTING.

Ut course this is free country. but
when Montana business men send East for
their Job printing they injure not only
themselves but the country they live in.
Our Bozeman contemporary, the Chronicle,
tells the truth in the following fashion: "a
job printing firm OF Ohio has this week
flooded Bozeman with its circulars and
samples of Job work. Among the number
we notice several from Montana towns. and
one especially that attracts our attention.
1t is for firm doing business in small
town. that attempts to support daily news.
paper with a good job attachment. For
twenty cents, which represents the differ.
ence in the price Of work done at home
and the work and postage Of the Ohio out.
tit, this merchant sends his money several
thousand miles away from the town to
which he looks to for support, and whose
citizens and their paper have given him
very important and well-paying office.
This Ohio printing Office hires, probably,
one or more job printers at $40 per week,
to set the type, and the remainder Of the
work is done by girls and boys at 5, and
IS per week. At the first glance the ,ner.
chant is made to believe that the work is
much cheaper than he can get it done for
at home. He forgets to add the postage or
express charges; he forgets that his home
office needs every cents worth of patron.
age; he forgets that great deal OF his pat.
ronage is due to the home paper. Truly
the newspaper man is the worst used Of
any being in existence. He is expected to
sit up nights and write the advantages OF
his town. He never gets rich--he is kick
ed If he errs--and never praised if he is
in the right. His is not an enviable life
even if he d s occasionally obtain free
ticket TO church festival after giving the
donors ~ half column puff"

leans.
Here is one of the paragraphs that, alas,
are SO often met with in the columns of the
papers published at Butte, the weal,hiest
and wickedest town in the world: "Last
Sunday afternoon Lena Gauthier, frail
angel, passed to the other shore by the
morphine express line."
Bishop Brewer, returning from Salt Lake
City, remained in Dillon over last Sunday.
He oficiated at st. James Episcopal
Church last Sunday, and preached two
sermons, morning and evening. For clio.
quence, elegant diction, apt illustration, and
impressivencss, Bishop Brewer has few
equals in the country.
On Friday afternoon Of last week two
fires occurred almost simultaneously. The
hosting works on the Bismarck mine il,
the Blue Wing District were burned and
the hosting works on the Cumberland
mine in the Bald Mountain District were
burned. We were unable to ascertain the
amount Of loss sustained.
Once in while Read, in the Butte Inter
Mountain, tells white truth. Here is one,
to.wit: "At the late meeting Of the Mon.
tana Press Association it was impossible to
tell the married from the unmarried men
simply by keeping track Of them at night.
AS a rule, however, the unmarried men
went to their hotels early and duly sober"
The Band Of Hope exercises at Grace NJ.
E. Church last Sabbath evening were quite
interesting. The Superintendent, Mrs.
James Kirkpatrick, assisted by several
ladies and gentlemen conducted the exer.
cises. Judge Eddy, Of Helena, made an
appropriate address 10 the children and the
affair was pleasant to the large audience in
attendance.

the conveyance and took to the hills. We
are pleased to learn that they were not

Tramps are prowling around the coun.

ranch Of Henry Porch tramp stepped and
asked for food. Mrs. Porch, through kind.
ness Of heart, set a nice meal Of cold vic.

a tramp demanded a hot meal. Mrs. p.
