The usual edition of any book published is 1,000 copies, and the general aveiage may reach 8,000. Thus more than 10,000. 000 volumes were pot on sale Inst year. During the past ten years th product has been about 100,000,000 volumes. There would be enough books to stock 10,000 libraries with 10,000 books each. It has been found however, that the wood paper now used quickly yellows and crumbles, so that in 50 years many ot the cheaper books will have turned itito dust. N. Y World. - - .

The pleasant method and beneficial effects of the well known remedy, Stbup or Fies, manufactured by the Calipokhia Fio Stbcp Co., illustrate the value of obtaining the liquid laxa tive principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting them in the form most refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system. It is the one perfect strengthening laxa tive, cleansing the system effectually, dispelling' colds, headaches and fevers gently yet promptly and enabling one to overcome habitual constipation per manently. Its perfect freedom from every objectionable qnality and sub stance, and its acting on the kidneys, liver and bowels, without weakening or irritating1 them, make it the ideal laxative. In the process of manufacturing figs re need, aa they are pleasant to the taste, but the medicinal qualities of the remedy are obtained from senna and other aromatic plants, by a method known to the California Fio Stbup Co. only. In order to get its beneficial effects and to avoid imitations, please remember the full name of the Company printed on the front of every package.

Items r General Interna Gleaned From tfc Thriving Paolfle 8tt. To Kxelnda Coavlet-Marie Goorla. The Manufacturers' and Protinoers' Association, of San Francisco, Cat., has entered npon a vigorous campaign against convict-made goods being placed upon the free market. Circut lars are being sent throughout the state, accompanied by a postal card, which is to be filled out and returned to the association by the receiver of the letter. By filling out this card an agreement is made to exclude from business establishments and homes all stoves known to have been made by convict labor, ueoent investigations made by the association disclosed the fact that among other things large quantities of stoves made bv convict la bor in Oregon were being sold not only in San Francisco, but throughout the state of California, and it is principally against this trade that the circular letter is directed. . Sharp Advance la Oatmeal. Flour and feed merchants of Van couver, B. C. last week announoed an advance of 20 cents per barrel in all grades of oatmeal. Heavy orders will have to be filled from the north short ly, and American dealers have been asking for quotations from British Co lombia merchants with a view to hav ing the orders filled in Vancouver, The supply of oats held on the coast i not large, and higher prices followed the inquiries from Seattle and Pacifio coast points. As many tons will be required in the north before the new crop is ready, another advance in both oats and oatmeal is looked for. No at tempt has been made to corner the market. - Km win Not ciot rtowa. D. A. Merriinan, president and gen eral manager of the nail mill at Ever ett, Wash., received word from the headquarters ot the American Steel Wire Company, in Chicago, that 2,500 tons of wire rods were about to be shipped to Everett for the mill at that point. This mill has been running night and day for the past two weeks, and there is not enough wire rods on band to keep it running more than month longer, so it was feared that tbe mill would have to shut down, but this shipment of rods, however, will be snUcient to keep the mill running continuously for at least three months. Southeaster Oregon Wool. The wool market has opened up in Ken man, and tne prevailing prices range from 6 to 7 cents for fall clips. and 11 to 12 cents for the spring clips only a small quantity selling at the top price. It is expected that by tbe end of tbe week the whole spring olip oi lenama county will be in. It is evident thst theLaka -COUhlv market II Sot be aa lively as that of the spring ot '98, owing to the fact that there still remains so much unsold wool. Figures gathered from the vari ous wool centers of Oregon give a total of 6,000,000 pounds remaining unsold from the olip of 1893. Cold Storage Plant.

He has with him a complete soda plant and bottling outfit, and will be prepared to do a large wholesale businesss. It is thought that this branch establish ment will soon exceeJ the mother es tablishment, owing to the ideal loca tion at W eiser.

T. chran oleared an average of tfl.20 per head for their cows, which shows the paying advantages of a first-class cheese factory.

Get out of here now, and If you wou't show your face here again to day you shall spend the month of July with me at my home, and then you shall judge for yourself whether that frame Is too good for my sister's pic ture," and Paul Reynolds gave bis chum a good-natured push toward the door. "Do you mean that? Hurrah! Why, that would be worth a lifetime banish nienb-no offense to you, old follow," and Burton Smith mildly expressed his delight by turning somersaults across the room, walking back on bis bands, then, bringing his feet to the floor, be shot upwnrds and, catching hold of bar above his head, be drew himself up aud whirled around the bar with the proficiency of an acrobat, dropping to tbe floor with a shout of overflowing mirth. , - " .

"Sakcs alive! Tbat Mr. Smith again!" she exclaimed. Burton's walk home had a tendency to quiet his hilarity, but that face was still before hi in, and after sitting In deep thought for an hour he sprang up with alacrity. "I'll do It, by Jove! She can't feel deeply offended, anyway, and I'll sign only a part of my name. Better for tbe future's sake to be on the safe side. There, that'll do, I think," ueiie Keynoids stood with an open letter In her hand, aud her eyes flash' ed angrily as she spoke her thoughts aloud. "Soft-headed Idiot!

When Burton Smith received this mocking epistle he dove both hands into his trousers pockets and stood gnz ing at bis feet with a most dejected air. No acrobatic performances now. O, no, No occasion for them. But as the humor of tbe whole affair atruck him. he threw back his bead and laughed he roared. The little minx! Serves me right, though. But how foolish she could make a fellow feel. Smith, you're an ass!" Tbe June days passed, tbe eagerly anticipated vacation drew near, and at last Paul Reynolds and Burton Smith found themselves In the quaint old town of Castone, where they were hap pily welcomed. At first Burton rather stood in awe of beautiful Belle Reynolds. Her love ly face and graceful figure won univer sal admiration, aud her sweet disposi tion endeared her to alL Burton 8mltb proved to be no exception. Their mu tual love for all kinds of outdoor sports threw them together constantly,.! and they became Ann friends. Then as tbe time for bis departure drew near be began to realize that In leaving Belle Reynolds behind he wag leaving all that bad made life to bright for him during the last few weeks.

Ridiculed C 1 Davis. About the best true story I suppose the stories are true, as he swore, they all were told me by my friend the clerk waa about Charles L. Davis, tbe actor, otherwise known as "Alvln Jos- Jin." He was In the lobby of tbe St Charles In New Orleans when a man from Chicago stepped In front of him and looked over his bead In search ot an acquaintance who be supposed was In the hotel lobby. Davis, mistaking the Chicago man's purpose, remarked: Ah, I see you admire my diamonds. This one" Indicating the stone on his shirt bosom "cost me $3,000. These' snowing nig cun buttons "cost me $2,600 each, and my wife has a trunk- f ul up In our room." Tbe Chicago man did not say much. but that evening, by arrangement with the head waiter, Davis was placed at supper alone at a table where were several vacant chairs. Presently seven men, all commercial travelers, entered the dining-room, and each one had a large cut-glass fruit dish fastened on his breast, while glass prisms buna pendant from each coat and vest but ton. Soberly marching to Davis' table, the seven men took the vacant seats and tbe Chicago man entertained the actor with: "Ah, I see you admire our dia monds. This one" pointing to tbe fruit dish "cost me $3,000,000. These" Indicating tbe prisms "cost $250,000 each, and we have three carloads like them at tbe depot waiting to be side tracked." Davis not only changed his table, but went to another hotel. Courier-Journal Death for Corn Microbes.
