they were required to put up SO and
costs for their appearance before the
Mayor at this evenings session OF the

HIS LAST HOPE REALIZED.

from the Sentinel, Gego, Montl
In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlement in 1889, the editor Of this
paper 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 upon his
claim, he encountered much. bad water,
which, together with the severe heat.
gave him a severe diarrhoea which it
seemed almost impossible to check, and
along in June the case became so bad he
expected to die. One day one Of his
ncighbors brought him one small bottle
OF Chambcrlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy as Inst hope. A big
dose was given him while he was rolling
about on the ground in great agony, and
IN a few minutes the dose was repeated.
The god effect Of the medicine was soon
noticed and within an hour the patient
was taking his first sound sleep for a
fortnight. The one little bottle worked
a complete cure. and he cannot help but
feet grateful. The season for bowel dis.
orders being ut hand suggests this item.
