IMPORTANT CASE ENDED.
The verdict was rendered last night
at 8 o'clock when Mr. E. S. Cockel
reas, of North Roseburg, purchased a
piano of Burr's Music House,, making
three piano Bales for the day. The
other two homes made happy were
those ot Dr. A. C. Seely and Mrs. G.
Wilcox. The day before we Bold to
Purdy Wilson, of Riddle, a beautiful
Bush & Lane piano and to Mr. W.
H. Lackey, of Yoncalia, a Chicago
Cottage organ.
The case at issue was: Where is
the best place to buy a. piano?
The verdict reads as follows: At
Burr's Music House, with their one
price systen-, 1- below all competitors
in prices and easy-payment plan. In
addition to this you have the protec
tion of your home dealer, who looks
after your piano in the future. The
verdict could not be otherwise when
you take in consideration that Burr's
Music House Is shipping all their
pianos direct from the fnotory in
carload lots, buying for cash, taking
all discounts. No high-salurled saieb
ment, together with their enoromous
expense bills. Any reasonable think

Dear Sir: Replying to your let
tor of the 10th Inst., in the matter of
my knowledge a to the adaptability
of Douglns County as ft commercial
apple and pear-growfng district, I do
not hesitate to say It Is among the
im'mi in ine suite of uregon.
I have In the past twelve years
Inspected the soils and observed the
fruits grown In thnt county, and must
say its possibilities for growing the
Newtown, Spltzenberg pnd Jonathan
apples, and all varieties of pears, to
gether with peaches and small fruits,
are Ideal.
In no portion of Oregon have I ever
sen better and more perfect apples
grow than in Douglas County. In
color, the apples of Douglas are
superb.
In segregating -the many tracts of
land In Douglas county I am sure the
Sutherlln traet is among the bent,
and with water to Irrigate, there
would never be a reason for a fail
ure to grow and mature a crop of
apples, pears, or any variety of fruit
any season.
The gravel subsoil of the Sutherlln
trart makes K possible to Irrigate
without danger of damage If too
much water were uw'd. as the sub
soil Insures perfect drainage. I am,
Yours truly.

liability, one that has an established
reputation, one that is certain to of
feet a quick cure. Such a medicine
is Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
has gained a world wide reputation
by Its remarkable cures of this most
common ailment. It acts on nature's
plan, relieves the lungs, nfds expec
toration, opens the secretions and
aids nature in restoring the system to
a healthy condition. During the many
years in which it has been in general
use we have yet to learn of a Blngle
case of. cold or attack of the grip

this remedy was used, which shows
conclusively that it is a certain pre
