A Change
In the medicine is so often ordered that you
sometimes doubt the ability of the physician to
properly treat the patient, when if the truth
was known the fault is with your druggist and
not the doctor. You become tired and restless
waiting for a change for the better to take place,
until in your anxiety you order a change of
doctors, when in the majority of cases a change
of druggists would be more beneficial to the
sick one.
When your physician tells you the medicine
don't have the desired effect, ask him to allow
you to have us prepare the medicine and note
the result. (
We accurately compound the prescriptions
of all physicians, no matter how complicated .
We do the work ourselves and don't turn them
over to an inexperienced assistant to fill.
Before changing doctors
try a change of druggists

Oregon City Normal College.
We began Oregon City Academy on
the 2d day of October, 1899.
We received a state charter in 1901
nnder Oie name of Oregon City Normal
College. 1
From numerical and financial stand
points, we have had reasonable success.
Our best success, however, is shown in
the advancement of our pupils.
Those of academic and normal graue
have accomplished their work bb thor
oughly and rapidly as the best schools
of college or academic grade.
Pupils in the advanced grades ot the
common school course have, as a rule,
passed two grades, or year's work, in
one year.
Our fourth year of school begins the
1st day of October, 1902.
We feel assured of a better school this
year, and look for increased attendance
oyer preceding years.
Oregon City is a good location for such
a school. If students of Oregon City and
surrounding country can do as well or a
little better in normal and college prt
paratory work than they can abroad, it
is certainly advantageous.
We have been long engaged in teach
ing, much of it in work of this grade,
and feel sure that no good student need
fail of doing the very best at Oregon
City Normal College.
Under the present sharp competition
in all lines of industry, all recognize that
every young man and woman suouiu
have a thorough, education. v
Wishing only the very best for the
young people now preparing to attend
school somewhere, we cordially invite
them to attend the college.
