years of his life to curing cancers alone, and
during that time has not failed to cure a

bad case, which killed the cancer in forty
eight hours, and in ten days time the whole
thing was removed and the affected parts
began to heal rapidly and was soon well, no
signs of it ever having returned.
He has cured hundreds of cases within
the last six years. and wants the public to
understand that he treats nothing but can
GERS. The doctor makes no charge until

night boat at Portland for Astoria,
arriving there in the morning. "Well,"
remarked a resident, did you come
down to see the place where your
wheat ought to be shipped?.' If the
Columbia was open to navigation,
barges loaded with golden grain could
carry it to the ships side at Portland
or Astoria for a song, and what a
sight it would be to see the tugs
bringing them down to where the
fleets of the world could come, find a
safe anchorage and load for other
ports. 1t will be thus some day, but
public Improvements are not pushed
with the energy of private enterprises
The Columbia, however, is becoming
known to the people of the country
and appropriations or the improve
ment thereof will no longer be re-
garded as a steal, therein lies our
hope. p. Eddg, editorial in Pen
