THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP 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
ell the importance of purchasing' the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fig t Syrup Co.
only, -a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other pc
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Ffl 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
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 get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
the Company

Oar Fruit Exhibit At Omaha.
Yesterday Mr. F. S. Peet, of Portland,
epent the day in this city endeavoring
to awaken an interest in our fruit ex
hibit at the Omaha exposition, and suc
ceeded somewhat in his mission. Today
Pete Stadelman sent a fine exhibit of
grapes direct to the grounds and others
have signified their intention of follow
ing his example.
One of our Eastern Oregon papers has
been objeoting seriously to the bill which
has been in the legislature asking for
$18,000 to defray the expenses of our ex
hibit there, saying that it has not been
worth $15 to the state. In regard to the
appropriation, wo have nothing to say;
but certain it is that the paper in ques
tion knows nothing of the many visitors
who stop to wonder at and admire the
Oregon fruit there displayed, while those
who know just what an excellent ex
hibit we might make, are positively
ashamed of what they behold.
Mr. Peet informs us that a free rate
on 1000 poundB a week has been secured
through to Omaha, which leaves little
exense for our frnit men's neglect in
failing to do this much towards adver
tising our state. It is to be hoped that
many boxes of Wasco county's wonder
ful fruit will find their way to the ex
hibition daring the weeks remaining,
where they will receive doe credit as
well as benefit the state. -
SINGING AMONG THE GREEKS.
The Ancient' Greeks Sans Blithely,
and Were Carefully Instructed.
Our present system of public instruc
tion is not so modern as some would
have us believe. Sparta had her state
superintendent, who, if distant report
is to be trusted, was an educational
despot. But, while he wielded his walk
ing stick freely during official visits,
and encouraged his subordinates to ply
the rod on all occasions, he was as
diligent a promoter of music as is any
humane and progressive educator of
our era. As a result, the little Lace
daemonians sang blithely, no matter
what torment was going on under
their tunics. And all over Greece, in
those dim days, were schools, ranging
from infant grades instructed under
Arcadian hedges to the university-extension
schemes harbored in buildings
uniquely, termed "places of leisure."
The infants were drilled' in their alpha-beta-gammas;
the older boys were
taught poetry and gymnastics, with
something of arithmetic, geometry and
drawing; and adults spent their leisure
with rhetoriticians and sophists, pay
ing handsomely for the privilege. But
music was a sine qua non of Grecian
life, in school and in sport, in battle
and in burial. The epic and elegiac
chantings at festivals, the calm specula
tions of Pythagoras as to the music
of the' spheres, the choral outburst of
"the great fifth century," the material
odes of Tyrtaeus and Pindar, all show
the national love for melody of voice
as well as for high and harmonious
thought. An old-time Greek set down
amid the strident, metallic voices of
our occidental world would feel that
the Furies had seized either upon him,
or the continent he was visiting.
The Wave of the 24th contains two
full pages of Astorian pictures illustrat
ing the salmon-fishing industry on the
Columbia river. The photographs were
made by J. H. Bratt, and are as fine a
set as have ever been published. They
can hardly fail to attract attention.
The Wave now devotes considerable
space and attention to Northwestern sub
jects, especially to the affairs" of Wash
ington and Oregon. This edition also
contains photographs illustrating the
Austrian tragedy, the Flood mansion
(which was recently presented to the
University of California), the Indian
Congress at the Omaha Exposition, the
street markets in Mexico, together with
a fine picture of James D.Phelan, mayor
of San Francisco, The reading matter
is especially interesting, among the feat
ures being a story by Frank Norris, en
titled, "The Drowned Who Do Not Die."
