THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is due not. only to the orisrinality und
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by -.eientific processes
known to the Caijfokma Fig Svncr
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing' the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
hy the Califokxia Fio Svrtji Co.
only, a knoivledpe of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured bv other pt.
ties. The high standing- of the Cali
fornia Fig Svnur Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrnp of Figs has
piven to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing; them, and it does not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to pet its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
the Company

same profit to the retail dealer. The law
of Oregon imposes conditions on the
publisher which are not required by the
law of any other etate. It requires the
contracting publisher to maintain a gen
eral depository or place of business in
this state, and to maintain sulxleposi
tories at snch points throughout the
etate now more than 250) as may he
from time to time designated by the
state board of education. We are there
tore required to keep on eale and on
consignment in various parte of the
etate large numbers of books, amount
ing to thousands of dollars. A number
of these places are remote from rail
Toad, the ireight in many caes costing
- as much as 15 per cent. The contract
'requires that the books shall be sold
at uniform prices at every place in the
BUte, and in order to do this and to j
ipiace all sections of the state and all
dealers on an equal footing, we are
obliged to pay this coat of transporta
tion, supply large stocks of hooks for
K-tiich there may lie no demand, and
which are nltiniatelv returned at our
expense, and in n damaged condition, -the
los-6 falling upon us. The retail '
price" onecified in the contract are the I
max ma u prices allowed to be charged ,
bv ti-e retail dealere for the book?.. In I
nianv places in the states and at Port- j
land" the books are Bold at catalogue ;
prices. We also mail the books, postage ,
prepaid, to any point m the state, at the j
catalogue, prices.
Oaroppenente are rival publishing
houses, or their agenls or their parti-'
ean. There onlv object is to Oritur j
about a change of text-books. We ask !
in all fairness why a change should be
made. A change in publishing Lonse
would in no wi-e lessen taxes of effect
any saving to the people, because the j
prices " " "WV
of all standard text-nooks are
alike. It wonld not heiieht the schools, ,
because our publications must be con-j
ceded to equal in e lucational merit those ,
of any other publisher. Common buai-
ness prudence ami economy require a ,
uniform series of books adopted fur
definit- periods. In no other way can .
favorable price? he secured or the peo
ple he protected from frequent and ex
pensive changes. Oar book" are iu ue
in tiie schools of the etate. Large num
bers of them, amounting to many thous
ands of dollars, are the property of the
ectiool pitrons. These would become
valueless if a change were made. It is
rnauileat folly to sugge-t a dungeon
the ground of ecunomv. Lt u consider
what a change of text books means.
For example, 30 per cent, or 30.00),
pupils in Oregon are in the grade thai
useaFi.Bt IJeader. If a change were
made, the people would necessarily have
to purchase 30.000 of the new' First
iieaders. No standard First Header is
Hold at less than "0 cent0, most of them
at 25 cents. In other words, it would
coat not lens than $1)000 to buy a etipnly
of new First Readers alone. Our sales
books for 180ft mid 160" show that we
have sold annually nut OOOO First Read
ers in Oregon, which at a retail price of
'Jo cents would be hut $1500. In fact, a
large percentage of these hooks were uld
tit a catalogue price of L'Oceutr, Fim
Headers, therelore, cunt the people of
Oregon less than $1500 xir year, while
it would cost at least $K!)00 to buy a eup
plv of a new kind. An annual Hale nt
i000 as against 30,000 First Readers in
use, me.uiH practically a renewal of
these hooka hut once In five yearfc, the
eame readers serving live sncceisive
cliiiiceH at a nominal cost to the pupil
after first purchase. Again, 40 per cent ,
of the ii pi In in the public schools study ,
trengraphv. There are two books in ue. I
There would, therefore, ho 40.000 pupils
in these classes, one-half in the element
ury and one half in the advanced book.
Twenty thousand pupils purchasing an
elementary geography, if a new book
were introduced displacing the one now
in use, ut GO cente per copy, which is .
the price of all standard geographies,
regardless of the publisher, would cost
the state $12,000. Yet the annual Bales '
ot Monleiih'n Elementary Geography, 1
the hook now used in our schools
throughout Hie elate, is but 4431 copies,
cutting 12058,00. If space permitted we
would no through the lit of booka in
ue and show exactly what the expense
of a chance of text books would Ih. The
total would be not less thiui $250,000.
That if the sum t!ie people of Oregon
would have to pay out for hooks the
rfl' ?CM " tne test Iwoks were chanced
Under the present system tlieannunl
cost ot b'toks Is less than JIS.OOO. The
sales of text book' in this state are nor
mal. The books havoheen In iie for n
number of years, the people are well
' supplied, and the sales each year are
(only to fill in and renew books actually
, worn out in the school room.
These figures prove the savinc t the
people bv continuing in use the hooks
they have on hand. The conditions
now are similar to those existing four
years nco w hen the present hook" were
raadopled. The public then almost
unanimously opposed a chance. They
did tint then, nor do thev now, wih to
incur the expense which a chance ot
text books would involve..
