All PA.LY CAPITAL JOUttNAU, oALEM, OREGON- THURSDAY, AUGUST 25, UK EIGHT - Timely Advice to Chittem Bark Peelers wjii " , . i . iwWMi WW in t -' A Liberal Business Proposition By a Salem Business Man Anticipating a large crop of chittem bark for the year 1904, and realizing that this woult bring about lower prices, making It less profitable for the producers, Mr. D. J. Fry, the drug. EiBt, has had erected a public chittem barto warehouse la Salem, where all who wish to store their bark free of charge for from one to five years, thus enabling those who refuse to have low prices forced upon them by the large manufacturers and brokers of tho East and abroad, to hold their bark until a better market prevails. Chittem Bark Peeling Will Soon Be a Thing of the Past For a number of years Cascara Sa grada, or sacred bark, more common ly known as chittem, has been very successfully used as a laxative and cathartic. Indeed, this medicine has become so popular you will hardly find a drug store without it, In some form or other. In thla country or In Europe, and every year hundreds of tons are exported to various part of tho Old World. Until a few years ago tho gatherers of this world renowned product, not knowing its value, al- most gave it away. Three and one half to four and one-quarter cents per pound being the ruling price juntll last year, when sales were reported of $320.00 per ton. This sudden Jump was brought about by the report that the bark was giving out, followed by a short crop, and although other sec tions of chittem trees In Oregon and elsewhere on the northwest coast have since been discovered, at the present rate of peeling, It will be but a few years when the last crop Is har vested, hence the advisability and necessity of holding on to what you have, and In the end you will surely get better prices. The Warehouse Mr. Fry's new warehouse Is located on Front street, near freight depot, within fifteen feet of the S. P. tracks and one block from the boat landing. The building covers a space of 40x 821-2 feet, contains three floors and has a capacity of from twenty-five to thirty car loads. It Is the first and only public chittem bark warehouse built In the northwest The founda tion and basement are made of con crete, the superstructure Is covered on the outside with heavy galvanized Iron, all openings are covered with the same, thus making It practically a fire proof structure. The building throughout will be cool in the sum ' mer and dry in the winter, and is therefore especially adapted for thoroughly curing and preserving chittem bark, for be it remembered this aritcle Improves by age. the longer you keep It the better It gets, and the more valuable it becomes. Terms The terms upon which chittem bark is received are simple and compre hensive. The bark Is stored absolute ly free of charge for from one to five years, or fraction of a year. To some this may seem strange, but if you stop to think it over, Mr. Fry can always get a larger offer for a car load of old bark than you can get for smaller quantities of uncertain age, and there fore ho is generally in a position to pay more foryc-jir bark than any other buyer, and still save a margin of profit for his trouble. As stated, your storage Is free, the only condition is when you get ready to sell he wants a chance to buy, and if he cannot offer you as much as any ono else, you have the privolege of taking your bark away without one cent of cost for storage. The only expense to you is getting it to the warehouse, unloading and reloading In case you do not sell to him. The latter will be trifling as you are with in a few feet of the cars. y Form of Receipt Parties storing chittem bark will be given a receipt as follews: ft Salem, Oregon, Received from .. of ...190.. sacks of chittem bark. The undersigned agrees to store above from one to five years, or fraction thereof, FREE OF CHARGE, with the distinct understanding that when ready to dispose of same owner will sell to me, providing I pay as much as any other buyer offers. Signed DANIEL J. FRY. Not responsible for loss or damage, though best of care taken. Money Advanced On all bark stored with Mr. Fry, cash will be advanced if required, up to two-thirds the value. Iaterest on tho loan will bo charged at the rate of eight per cent per annum. All bark on which money is advanced must be Insured at the expense of the owner. Special Instructions Shipments of bark must consist of a merchantable quality, packed in strong sacks, securely sewed, and on the end of each, sack place the Ini tials of the owner, also name of post office. Failure to do this will neces sitate a charge for same, as no ship ment can be stored without being properly marked for recognition. Nearly three car loads have al ready been received for storage, and a large amount of space is engaged. Parties contemplating holding their bark for higher prices and stor ing, are requested to make early application. WW ?i N - - CALL ON OR WRITE TO DANIEL T. FRY Wholesale and Retail Dftiggist, r.

Do It iooay. The time-worn injunction, "Never put off 'till tomorrow what you can do today," is now generally present ed In this ferm: "Do It today!" That is the terse advise we want to give you about that hacking cough or de moralizing cold with which you have been struggling for several days, per haps weeks. Take some reliable reme dy for it TODAY and let that remedy be Dr. Boschee's German Syrup, which has been in use for over thirty-five years. A few doses of it will undoubt edly relieve your cough or cold, and Its continued use for a few days will euro you completely. No matter how deep-seated your cough, even If dread consumption has attacked your lungs, German Syrup will surely effect a cure as It has done before in thou sands of apparently hopeless cases of lung trouble.

Just whom will be selected cannnot b foretold, but that It will be a Campaa man Is absolutely certain. In addition to choosing a new chair man the committee meeting today will select a candidate for judge of the supreme court to take the place of Thomas A.
