THE EXCELLENCE CF SYEEP OF FIGS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
o the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
3ccovvr to the California Fig SrBtrp
Co. only, and we' wish to impress upon
11 the importance of purchasing' the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fig Stbtjp Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
stssist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other pa
lies. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Fre Stkup Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
,$riven 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 ifTVloes not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects; please remember the name of
the Company

LET VS ASSIST IT. -
We Are Indented te the Boys and Girts'
.Aid Society, Which Needs Assistance.
' It is greatly to be regretted that our
legislators did not see fit to aid in a more
eabstantial manner one of the best
factors for genuine good in the state the
Soys and Girls' Aid Society, of Portland,
-which has for some time past been . in
the most straitened financial circum
stances. Through this society's hands
pass annually an average of 264 ehildren
Gathered from M parts of the state ; chll
lren who are taken from homes of degre
-dation and want to receive the best of
draining from officers who. are kind
tiearted and in every way competent to
bring a child up in the way it should go,
It would be thoroughly impossible to
find a better superintendent than Mr
Gardiner, who, while he demands obedi
ence, has a manner which draws each
child to him, having therefore the best
of influence over them. He is also fnll
of life and wit and is capable of attract
iog the sympathies of those committed
to his charge in this way when others
4a.il. Mrs. Graham, the matron, is
-woman thoroughly suited to her posi
tion, giving the little waifs a motherly
care not found in homes they are taken
roin. .
. Wasco county has great reason to . feel
deeply indebted to this society, which
ha9 taken numbers of homeless, on cared
for boya and girls from her midst and
placed them in the beat of Oregon
homes. Onr people should therefore
take a deep intereet in the welfare of this
institution, aiding it individually when
ever practicable.
Just at present is a good time in which
to look into this matter and see what
can be done, as from an estimate care
fully made by the superintendent, there
is needed for the coming two year?, $11,
554, and the income to be depended upon
is only $3954, leaving a deficit of $7569.
Therefore, if no other aid is received, it
will be impossible for this good work to
continue.
Dawson a She Is.
A letter received by a gentleman in
this city from a friend who was former
ly a resident of Cascade Locks, but is
now at Dawson City, has the following
concerning that place, from which we
have baerd such adi versify of reports :
"I will just eay that this country is
very much over-rated, both in regard to
its mineral wealth and also the terrible
cold weather so much . feared by new
comers. With the exception of warm
mitts and moccasins I tave worn the
same kind of clothes that I did at the
Locks and suffered no more with the
cold here than there, although it has
been fifty-eight below already, and that
is about as cold as it gets at any time
during the winter.
"I staked what has proven to be a
valuable claim on the first of September,
but as I did not give up a half-interest
to any one in connection with the official
ring, I, as well as hundreds of other
Americans, could not get it recorded. To
place it in as mild a form as possible, I
will say that I never knew anything in
ward politics one-half as corrupt as the
official traneaations of theN. W.T.
for the paet seven. months. 1 will try the
American side in the spring, where the
one niau power is not known. .

X.a Grippe Successfully Treated.
"I have just recovered from the sec
ond attack of La Grippe this year," says
Mr. Jas. A. Jones, publisher of the
Leader, Mexia, Texas. "In the latter
case I used Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, and I think with considerable suc
cess, only being in bed a little over two
days against ten days for the former at
tack. The second attack I am satisfied
would have been equally as bad as the
first but for the use of this emedy as 1
had to go to bed in about six hours after
being 'struck' with it, while in- the first
case I was able to attend to business
about two days before getting .'down.' "
