CM) THE EXCELLENCE OF SYBUP OF FIGS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also to the care and skill with which it is manufactured by scientific processes known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the importance of purchasing the trne and original remedy. As the Pennine Syrup of Figs is manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only, a knowledge of that fact will assist one in avoiding the worthless imitations manufactured by other pat ties. The high standing of the Cali fornia Fn Syrup Co. with the medi cal profession, and the satisfaction which the genuine Syrup of Figs has given to millions of families, makes the name of the Company a guaranty of the excellence of its remedy. It is iar 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 get its beneficial effects, please remember the name of the Company CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. SAN FltANOISCO, Cat EnSVILLE. Ky. NEW TORE. K.T. DENVER'S HOSPITALITY. How Four Hundred Kewapaper People Were EutertainaA in that Beau tiful City. The recent meeting of the National Editorial '' Association at Denver did much to impress those of the delegates who were Eastern born and bred of the genuineness and completeness of Webt em hospitality. The citizens of Denver were successful in 60 completely capti vating tbe newspaper people and enter' taining them that all are anxious to re' turn ana rnase ineir Domes in each a goodly land. Not only was the entire city, with its magnificent buildings, beautiful homes, lovely parks and grand surroundings, open to them, but the telegraph and postal lines were theirs to communicate with friends when de tired. Receptions, banquets, lunches, trolley rides and what not were given them, while the genial Western spirit '9 displayed through it all. Not con tent with this, a member of the recep tion committee, Wolfe Londoner, went .so lar as to fit out a baggago car with -delicacies of all kinds, which was at- tached to the special train in which was . maJeatiip through the state. The ;inany favors extended to the party were entirely too numerous to mention, but will be remembered and treasured by each individual. Much hag been said of this "Saratoga of the West," with its 165,000 inhabi tanCe, but the half has never yet been told, for it beggars description. Its buei ness blocks are among the finest to be seen in any city, many of them finished in onyx.. One hotel in particular, the Brown Palace, which cost $1,600,000, is built of brown stone, the interior being finished in the purest onyx. Even more beautiful and elaborate is the Equitable Life Insurance building. Its elegant homes, also, are mostly of brick and etone, while even the editors took notice of the fine church edifices, and discov ered that the city contained one hundred and twenty-two churches, more numer ous than anything except bicycles and divided skirts. Very noticuble is the cleanliness i the streets and the absence of email shacks and objectionable looking build ings. Everything denotes wealth and enterprise, and amid such surroundings Jonr hundred city and country editors tnjoyed a week's visit. The business sessions were not less encceesful than the social. There were present men and women of the brightest intellects of the United States, (present company expected), who contributed papers and addresses, which aided great ly those less fortunate in experience and talents (present company excepted), and will prove of much benefit in their every clay duties. The crowning day of the convention was election day, when wit and wisdom Tied with each other as candidate after candidate was placed before the conven tion by their enthusiastic friends, who in eoaring bo high, often forgot from whence they came and neglected to mention the name of the would-be offi cer in extolling hie virtues. The climax was reached when, elections over, the place of the next meeting was to be de cided upon. After several, in eloquent terms, had told all they knew(nd more) in favor of their particular city as the only place of meeting; when from the "Pacific to the the Atlantic and from the North to the Gulf" had been reiter ated and eung, when silver-tongued ora tor and stammering enthusiast bad sounded forth the Draises of bis peculiar clime; when all had been said and Col. Pat Donan, so loyal to our Pacific coast and its every interest, modestly stepped to the platform, his very presence seemed to speak more than all the elo quent words of tongue or pen, and as his genial countenance expressed Oregon's greeting no word was necessary. Before the speaker had mentioned Portland, enthusiasm ran high and aB all shouted Oregon," it was evident that our state was up to her old tricks and had won the day. If any think Oregon is not known broadcast over the United States he shoufd have been present at that meeting. Perhaps Oregonians are too ardent in their admiration of their own, their na tive land. Be that as it may, a trip through Colorado, which is bard to sur pass in grandeur of ecenerv, will prove they are not far wrong. A tour of the editors through Colorado will be men tioned in some future number. BUSINESS LOCALS. Steel range, six hole, high shelf $27.50. Steel range, four hole, high shelf $20.00.
