BRAcr THE NERVES.

Sedatives and opiates won't do It.
These nervines do not make the nerves
strong, and failing TO do this fall short
of producing the essential of their
quietude-yigor And while in extreme
cases--and these only--of nervous irri-
tation such drugs may be advisable,
their frequent use is highly prejudicial
to the delicate organism upon which
theyaact, and in order to renew their
quieting effect increased and dangerous
doses eventually become necessary. Hos
letters Stomach Bitters Is an efficient
substitute for such permcious drugs. 1t
quiets the nerves by bracing, toning,
strengthening them. The 1nnection be
tween weakness of the nervous system
and that of the organs of digestion is a
strong and sympathetic link. The Bit
ters, by imparting heathful impulse
to the digestive and assimilating func-
tons, promotes throughout the whole
system a vigor in which the nerves
come in for large share. Use the Bit
ters in malaria, constipation, bilious and
kidney trouble.

THE ROYAL CHINOOK.
An Experts Tribute to the Only True
Salmon in the World.


The following communication, re-
ceived in this city yesterday, will be
read with interest by Astorians:
Portland, Ore, Feb. 21, 1894.
Mr. A. j. Megler, Astoria, Ore.-My
Dear Mr.. Megler; Three years ago you
very kindly, at my request, procured a
salmon and sent it to Gen. o. D. Greene
at San Francisco, for which he was de-
voutly grateful. l saw him last sum-
mer when was in San Francisco, and
he appreciated 1t so highly that would
like to send him another one. Will you,
therefore, as a kindly act to Gen.
Greene, and a friendly act to me, pro-
cure the best and largest salmon you
can and give it to the steward of one
of the San Francisco steamers, asking
him to hang it up in the steamers cold
room, and address the sqlmon to Gen.
o. d. Greene, Pacific Union Club, San
Francisco. l dislike very much to
trouble you in this matter, but If you
will do so l will be under many obliga-
tions to you, and the whole object is to
please Gen. Greene. who he's not ye+,
QUIT talking about that wonderful sal
mon he got from the Columbia river,
and proved to the San Francisco mem
bers Of the Pacific Union Club that they
did not know enything about what a
salmon was; that California had really
no salmon, and that although some fish
they had looked like salmon, they were
not sure-enough sslmon, the only true
salmon in the world being the Royal
Chinook salmon of the Columbia river,
and that if anybody knew how to pick
out selmon it was Mr. A. ]. Megler.
of Astoria, Ore, and while he was
oblieed to Holman for sending the sol
mon he YVES eduolly obli~ed to Holmon
for getting an expert to pick out good
one.
Thanking you in sdvence for your
blindness in this matter, 1 am, very sin
cerely yours.
FREDERICK V. HOLMAN.
1t is needless to soy the salmon will
be sent, Mr. Megler yesterday havinG
obtained a fine specimen, Weighing be-
tween forty and fifty pounds. Gen.
Greene was formerly ststioned at Van
couver, and is personally known to
many residents of this city. While at
Vancouver he visited Astoria frequent
ly, and on several occasions accom-
panied Mr.. Megler on fishing excur-
sions.

THE NEXT POSTMASTER.
The Fight Now Understood to Be a
Triangular One.

Who will be Postmaster Hare's sue
cessor? This question is becoming Of
more interest as the time for Mr.. Hare's
retirement approaches, and It is UNDER
stood that one of the four candidates
originally in the field has dropped out
Of the race. The aspirants now are said
% be Herman Wise, School Director
Dealy and E. C. Lewis. each Of whom
has number of supporters who profess
to be confident OF the success Of their
choice. Herman Wise, however, appears
to have the inside track. and viii no
doubt be the fortunate enc. 1t has been
known for some time that our present
efficient postmaster would not be re-
moved until his full term expires, and
Mr. Wise's friends feel assured that he
will in due course step into Mr.. Hare's
official shoes.
