EDKMlOWKIt SNAPSHOTS. ; majestic r ' Buying at Half Price "Oh. I can get a range Just like that for half the money, from a catalog house." Have you ever heard the above expression? It's Just about as ridiculous as It sounds. To start with, there Is not a range sold by a catalog house that is one-third as good as the GREAT MAJESTIC Malleable and Charcoal Iron Range and we are right here on the ground to prove it, if you will call and give us a chance. Suppose you ordered one of the ranges from a catalog house, the best you would get is a Cast Iron and Steel Range made of the cheapest material that can be bought for that purpose.' It Is bolted together, because you can't rivet cast Iron. The cracks and cor ners are Ailed with stove putty. It will do what you might con sider good work for six months or maybe a year at any rate, until you have paid for It. What hapiwns then? Expansion and con traction work the bolts loose the putty falls out cold air gets into the range you are compelled to use a lot of fuel and keep your range red hot to get the oven hot enough to bake. This constant heat burns out the fire-box you need new parts your range is out of commission for two or three weeks, probably a month, while you are getting new parts. You must pay good money for these pnrts, because you need them. You must pay the ex press charges, too. Then, when you finally get the parts, you find the fire-box so warped out of Bhape from the Intense heat that it takes a mechanic to place them more expense. Finally you get the range going again. You find things you bake in the oven are always full of ashes and soot, and on examining the oven you And large openings where the putty has fallen out. You can't get some one from the catalog house to come and put In more putty, so you must ask your local mun to help you out more expense. In a little while you find a hole has rusted or burned through the thin steel body. Get the tinner to put a patch over the hole more expense. Just about this time you begin to realize you have an expensive range, and either throw It out or watt a few weeks longer until ft falls to pieces. Now, just suppose you ordered A GREAT MAJESTIC RANGE from us. To begin with you pay a little more money than you did for the catalog house run Re, but you get the best that is made. MALLEABLE IRON AND CHARCOAL IRON IS EVERYTHING IN A RANGE. It can't break doesn't rust all Joints are rlvlted to gether perfectly air tight. No stove putty. No cold air enters the range and no hot air escapes. It won t use half the fuel, as all the heat stays In the range, where it should be. You are not compelled to burn out the range to got the oveh hot enough to bake. You don't constantly spend money for repairs, because there is nothing that can break or get out of fix. To be sure, we make a profit on that range. Don't we deserve It? We are looking after your Interest, why shouldn't you pay us a reasonable prolit If It pays you to do It? To whom do you pay the prolit when you buy from a catalog house? Why most assuredly to the catalog house. They don't know you, consequently don't care what happens after they have their money. They don't make the range they sell; they do the same as we buy from the manufacturers. The only difference Is, they buy the cheapest they can get and sell for all they can get; while we buy the best and are satisfied with a reasonable profit, depending on the future for more sales. Give this matter a careful thought, and if you are not satisfied with this argument, put your catalog under your arm and come and see us; show us what they will do for you, and we will show you where- we can do better.

Kidd & Son AgenjS NOTICE TO HORSE OWNERS Until further notice, I will be located on Main Street, opposite Moore's Old Livery Barn Where I will be pleased to attend the wants of my former patrons in the Horseshoeing Line. IRA A. PILKINGTON Broexy Bunch of Happening! From a Live Suburb., S. A. Wilson, owner of valuable properly In Edoubower, hus returned from a buslueBs trip through Michi gan and Southern Indiana. He re ports having experienced a very en joyable trip while absent, and comes back In the enjoyment of excellent health. Since his returned home he has leased bis handsome residence for the winter to E. S. Harkuess and family, and wll Bpend the next six months in Koseburg, where he has rented property. Suuday Mrs. W. Fest came near meeting with a serious accident. She had partly harnessed her drh'ins horse to the buggy preparatory to making a trip to the city. Just then the horse became frightened and turned around in the shafts of the vehicle, one tug being unhitched. To add to the trouble a little son of the lady was in the buggy and badly scared at the prospects. Mrs. Fost was thrown to the ground by the fractions horse, and the child was thrown Into the mixup. The plucky woman nevei let go of the horse, however, and after sustaining sever al severe bruises upon different parts of her body, and having one of her arms painfully scratched up. she fin ally became mistress of the situation. To her heartfelt satisfaction the child escaped without Injury. W. Davis has been engaged dur Ing the wok hauling prunes from his dryer to the packing house In Hose burg. The fruit Is of an excellent quality and will bring an A I price. A letter received from J. Vilford Pentney by his parents, from Mc Mlimville, where the young man Is taking a business course In the col lege at that place, states that he Is succeeding finely, standing at the head of his class. Dr. Miller paid Edenbower a- pro fessional visit Tuesday, returning to the city the same day. C. A. Friend and family, of Olalla, have rented the Cobb place and will remain In Edenbower Indefinitely. The two rivers have began to rise steadily, though no heavy rains' in the mountains have been reported. Old timers say this reported rise is occasioned from escapage from the soil caused by our first fall rains. H. Rinehnrt and family have re moved their household goods to Oak land, where he is reported having rented a chicken and truck ranch, to which he will devote a year of his future time. Horn, near Edenbower, on the 7th Inst., to the wife of O. H. Cash, son. Mother and child are doing nicely. Dr. Houck was in this vicinity Tuesday on a professional visit. Mrs. E. E. Spelcher is in Portland where she will spend three or four weeks visiting her son-in-law and daughter. Mr. Sjwicher In the mean time is putting his place In complete order for the winter and adding fur ther improvements to his already line property. Samuel Hopewell 'ms occupied the Davis property opposite John Botch er's store and opened a shoe shop. At an early date he proposes to treat the building to a new coat of paint, put a new roof on it and otherwise fit It up for store purposes. He will also carry a stock of ready-made j goods. W. B. Hnmnilttes runabout ran Into E. E. Spefcher's milch cow Wed nesday. The cow was knocked down onj slightly skinned up about the, legs, but not otherwise injured. The auto was not damaged. j Gus Nelson's house caught fire : Sunday night In the ceiling and roof, and had it not been for the timely assistance of neighbors the building and contents would have been entire ly consumed. During the night the weather turned cool, and the stove was filled with wood and the draught shut off. At a later hour Mrs. Nel son awoke and discovered flro In the ceiling und on the floor. Sho arous ed her husband and two sons, who appealed do near-by residents for help. They responded promptly, and the fire was extinguished, but not be fore a large hole had been burned through the roof and the ceiling ma terially damaged. The building was Insured with Col. John Wright, of Koseburg, who will see to It that the necessary repairs are made. Several residents have lost their pet cats here of late, about a doz en of them dying as struck by an epidemic. A cat doctor could find use for his professional skill Just now In Edenbower. William H. Vanery arrived at the county home for indigents Thursday night from Canyonvllle. He Is down with dropsy and rupture, and is a very young man and helpless. Thomas J. Fiudley has spent every da available this week In Improving the home for the winter and build ing conveniences about his residence. Among other improvements Is that of a neat lawn, fenced with wire fenc ing which he will seed to grass and plant with rare roBes. This will add much to the appearance of the place, making it decidedly home-like. That grapes can be grown success fully and profitably is proven by re sults of the efforts of fJeyer Con rad, who for the past 20 years has made a success of wine and raisin varieties of grapes in, Edenbower. Ho has the Improved Concord, as fine and as large an ever shipped from New York. Tokays In larger buncher than ever grew In Califor nia, and twenty other varieties of grapes on vines fit for any to whlrh the fruit Is put to. Many of the- main vines In the vineyard are over a foot In dlutneter, and none of the vlnts have been troubled with disease common to grapes. Mr. Con rad Is a native of Swltterland. and has grown grapes from childhood and this la owing, doubtless, much of his past success, and the fact that at the late district fulr he was award ed six first premiums on grapes. One on the onderberry and one on Douglas county grown tobacco. He also took first premium ou a water color picture of an elk. With his grapes he also attends to vegetable gardening the year round for the market, aud between the two reaps a decided competence, which makes life Independent and worth living. JASPEK. B. A.
