HIS Last Hope Realized.

(From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.)
In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor of this pa
per was among the many seekers after
fortune who made the big race one fine
day in April. During his travelling
about and afterwards his camping up
on his claim: he encountered much
bad water, which, together with the
severe heat, gave him a very severe
diarrhoea which it seemed almost i'm
possible to check, aud along in June
the case became so bad be expected to
die. One day one of his Deighbors
brought him one small bottle of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy as a last hope. A big dose
was given him while he was rolling
about on the ground in great agony,
and in few minutes the dose was re-
peated. The good effect of the medi-
cine WAS soon noticed and within an
hour the patient was taking his first
sound sleep for a fortnight. That one
little bottle worked a complete cure,
aud he cannot help but feel grateful.

sampling and measuring up the big ore
bodies and on their report a sale of the
property hinges. They have a com
plete outfit with them and will be
camped at the mine until the work is
complete. The mines were the greatest
properties ever opened on the Pacific
coast and produced millions of dollars
in the grass roots. Many causes lead
to the closing down of the property
twenty years ago, since which time it
has never been operated. The ore
bodies are wonderfully large and can
be made pay quite handsomely with
the proper method Of treatment of the
ores. The people who are taking the
matter up are financially able to put
the mine on a paying basis and know
how to do it. Should the property re-
sumo operations after years of idleness
il will make that section of country
one of the liveliest in the county, as
other mines will follow suit.
