Both legs were torn of above the

Zone day happened to read an ad-
vertisement of s. S. s., recommending
fhat remedy for cancer, and in view OF
the failure of the most eminent physl-
clans in the country, confess l had
little faith left in any human agency.
However, purchased bottle OF SIS,
and to my delight it seemed to oeneht
her. After she had taken couple Oh
bottles the cancer began 10 heal, ana
astonishing as it may seem, few Dot
files more cured her entirely. You can
probably better understand how re-
markabie this cure was when explain
that the cancer had eaten two holes IN
the breast two inches deep. These
healed up entirely, and although ten
years have elapsed, not sign OF the
disease has ever returned, and we are
assured of the permauence OF the cure,
which we at first doubted.
GAS my wife inherited the cancer, l
certainly regard S. S. S. as the most
wonderful remedy in the world, and 1t
is truly d Godsend to those afflicted
with this terrible disease. You may
be sure that l shall always be grateful
to that remedy, for without it my home
would now be desolate and my chill
dren motherless."
The above is but one OF many re-
markable cures being daily made by
S. s. S. Cancer is becoming alarm
ingly prevalent, and manifests itself in
such a variety of forms, that any lump
sore or scab, it matters not how small,
which does not readily heal up and dis
appear may well be regarded with
suspicion. We will gladly send to any

Letter From California.
SANGER, CAL, March II, 1896.

SANGER, OAL., MdTCH IL iO"N'
DEAR REeIsTER-Many times has the
resolve to send you letter been form
ed only to be broken. But on reading
such an interesting letter from Maine
have decided to send a line from
this land of sunshine, where 1.-The win
tiers are as kind as the summers are IN
Maine.
Life is pleasure under the sunny skies
Of Southern California. This being the
season of our rainfall, all nature is deck
ed in robes of beauty. As far as the
eve can reach toward the north, south
and west, the valley is dlothed in green
with the fruit orchards dotting the
landscape like immense flower gardens.
Apricots. almonds, pears and peaches
are now in bloom.
To the east, towering in grandeur
above us. are the snow-capped Sierras.
Their white tops present pledge as
thew next summer will be the fulfilling
of that pledge. of bountiful harvests.
For upon the supply of snow IN the
mountains depends the water in the
rivers with which to irrigate, and If the
water is here the crops are assured.
II NAV seem strange to hear of paying
for water at the rate of sixty dollars "a
foot or one and half dollars an inch.
But when one understands these terms
il is simple enough. A foot of water
means a stream that flows through an
opening a foot wide and foot deep
under a pressure of four inches, and
when the water-right is purchased 1t
entities the purchaser to use that
amount of water, whenever there Is
water to run, for as long as he owns the
land. But had no idea of writing up
the irrigation system. To tell your
readers of the winter beauties OF our
valley was my intention. While our
wards are fragrant with vioIets' hya'
| cinths. roses and Gala lilies, the entire
earth around is like great crazy quilt
with the profusion and variety Of wild
flowers. Every child who has even
few blocks to walk, comes to school la
den with flowers The brilliant poppy
or cup of gold. the lovely baby-blue'
ewes. the pure waXy four-o clocks and
the beautiful bird seyes, with many
others. make our country veritaolt
flower garden. While love West Nlr
ginia and always think of it as home
and want to come back when | can,
think this is the incest place to spenc
winters. We remember our winter
pleasures, coasting and sleighing with
out regret, as we go about our daily
duties with the windows and doors open
and carry our parasols in the sun.
With best wishes for the success o.

She was at once put under treatment
