j. Eugene Jordan, NJ. D., Seattle, Wash,
Dear Sir:-lt has been some time since
wrote letter TO you. but have been so
well that il has not been necessary. You
remember when first wrote you in May,
81, / was in fearful condition with q
complication Of troubles. / could not
stand on my feet five minutes at time
unless walking around; it seemed as
though my back would break apart. You
remember that had an enlarged lung or
bunch under my short ribs on the left side
ana 1t seemed TO me as though would
smother to death. also had liver and
stomach trouble. In fact, my health was
completely broken down so that / would
have been much better dead than alive.
Could not do any housework at all Now
am getting so stout; my side does not
trouble me and can do all my nousework,
washing and all Please publish my testi-
mony in any of your books or papers, as
was just as bad as any one could be and
get well. There are great many weakly
people here that know your medicines
would cure if they had them to take, and
am sure If it was near here so that it
could be procured they would take it, as
all know how much have suffered.
beg to remain
Very Respectfully,
MRS. c. C. MEYERS.

This country will be densely populated
and there will be several big cities on this
Sound. Some of them may be a good deal
bigger than any of those who now take
the lead. And let me tell you, when it
comes to the question of specializing in
real estate, | would much rather take my
chances in one of those young, vigorous
towns than in the older ones, where values
are already pretty high. Many of these
small towns will go right ahead, and few
of them, on account of their more fortu-
nate location, will undoubtedly make
rapid progress in the near future. Such a
place, for instance, is Utsalady. l do be-
lieve that if town had been started on
that beautiful harbor in Utsalady Bay ten
years ago it would have been the largest
city on the Sound today. The location is
a commanding one, its resources are i'm
mense. The oldest settlements, the finest
farms, the biggest timber--up in that vi
cinity is where you will find it. The IA
nous Skagit and Stillaguamish valleys,
with their wealth of timber, coal, iron,
marble, asbestos, silver, copper and other
precious minerals, are directly tributary TO
Utsalady, which is practically the only
deep water harbor and shipping port for
that region. Utsalady is great steamboat
center already, and I notice the railroads
are also heading for Utsalady. In my
opinion it is good place 10 invest"

The spirits yearning cry.
The striving after better hopes
These things shall never die.
The tinid hand stretched forth to aid
A bNother in his need;

When justice threatens nigh;

These things shall never die.
The cruel and the bitter word
That wounded as it fell.
The chilling warmth Of sympathy
We feel but cannot tell;
The hard repnlse that chills the heart,
Whose hopes were bounding high;
The memory Of the cold hindclasp--
These hings shall never die.
