STURDY tollers. All over the state are to
be found men and women suffering from
the exposure and toll Of earlier years,
and. as well. many of younger age. upon

before disease had taken SO strong hold
upon him.
For many years Mr.. ]. T. Mccartney
was a well-known and successful farmer
in Linn county, where he still owns a
large ranch, but he has also property in
terests In Portland on the East Side and
is living at q East Seventh street. where
