Ono (!;i.v in July, t i 1 0, pi, 1;
Up the A un ruau .I:ti;al!if ;unl, as
usual, tu ni (Ml first to t lie Kiltt or's
Table-, and there read of the -!.-ven
cash prizes oi iVrnl lur 1. -tiers of ap
preciation lor t he American Maga
zine. Hero is what struck ino most
forcibly; "Wo hope thai all who
wrlto will write naturally that which
they honestly feel in t he-ir minds."
Ami then I thought, -Why, that will
ho the. easifsi tiling in the world to
do."
Little did I realize, as I took up
my pen to tell just how much the
maaino had meant to me in my
far-away Western home, that J.'TT
people besides myself were fioinj? to
tell of their nppiociation also. Had
I known this, I should never have
had the murage to try my luck
against so many;, but as I sat. think
ing about the things 1 had loved
nou
n Hie magazine, it all cnine to tin
that within the pages of The Ameri
can 1 had tirst enjoyed the writings
oi uaviu ii ray son, wno. more i na u
any other writer I have known,
seems to put the very spirit of ro
mance into country life; and as I
took a retrospective view of all 1 had
read, enjoyed, and absorbed of the
thoughts email at ing from t lie minds
and pens of my favorite authors, my
pen could not write last emumh to
suit me of the friendliness I felt for
the magazine, and t hose who "put
heart, soul, and mind into its pages:"
and, ;;s I wrote, the thought came to
my mind that suivly of ,-aU who
would write brilliant a ppiveiat ions"
for t he magazine none could have
greater cause for appreriai iofl than
one whose life was speni on a far
western farm, and so I wrote it just
as it came to my mind.
Alter the letter was writ i en and
mailed, 1 began to t liink I hat I here
would he hundreds of others writing
letters to t -1 1 of their feelings for
the magazine, but I knew none of
them could feel more deeply than I,
though they might express the feel
ing in b'f.i language; and I felt
that, surely, when I had put my very
heart in that letter, I would win oiu
of the prizes.
Well, one day along toward ( b
last of September I hiuhed the old
bhe k mare to the hm'.uy and drove
to Yolicalla lo take some butter and
eggs and get the mail, the la-t er
rand always being the most import
ant of all. I walked ittio Hint little
postoffice in the same ordinary frame
of mind in u h ich ! had often gone
there before, asked for t he mail
without a single premonition lhat
anything out of the ordinary was
coming' to me;
I looked at the envelope of one
letter, and, noticing the address of
The American Magazine on the cor
ner, my heart gave a sudden jump,
for the thought was that 1 had won
ono of the $L'." prizes sure enough.
AVhen I opened the loiter, however,
and saw that the check was for Ji'.'-b,
I could hardly credit my own eyes,
and when 1 ivad the kindly letter
from the editor I was indeed a proud
and happy woman: and when 1 reflect
that it was one chance against U."77

u'bv we are having this sale
conducted bv l!ig lien.
II
ere s
why.
liig Hen you've seen the
advertisements in the maga
zines is the big alarm clock
that wakes you up in the
morning and calls you lo
your work.
'This sale is intended to
Y.KK YOU to its money
saving opportunities anil lo
CAM. YOl' to take fullest
advantage of them.
"I )on't sleep mi this oppor
tunity," advises I'.ig Hen.
That he is going to run this
sale to suit himself.
And he has some very de
cided views on the subject.
For instance, he positively
declines to advertise any of
his prices. ".Prices mean
nothing unless you can see
the goods," says Big Ben.
Another idea of Big Ben's
is that goods purchased dur
ing his sale must be cheerful
ly and properly exchanged,
and money returned if so de
sired by the customer. "And
it will be clone with a smile,"
declares Big Ben.
At first, when Big Ben saw
the job ahead of him, he
scratched his head a heap.
"Want that $6000.00?" he in
quired. "GOT to have it!''
we assured him. "Well, if
you don't care what happens
to your prices," be informed
us frankly, "I'll get the
crowd, all right." "Go to it!"
wc shouted.
And he certainly mutilated
our prices fearfully.
"Had to do it,"
Big Ben.

A Word of
On May 1st, I'M 2, we announced our intention of retir
ing from the mercantile field in Roseburg and advertised
our business fur sale. At the same time, we offered our
stuck tu the general public in a mammoth C losing Out Sale
one ol the largest ever held in this county.
While we succeeded in selling off a considerable por
tion of our stock, we have been unable to make a satisfac
tory disposal of the remaining stock .and good-will, and
have therefore decided to remain permanently in Roseburg,
conl inning our business at the obi stand. Our decision has
been influenced, in no small measure, by the many people
who have urged us lo remain in business here.
Now that we have definitely decided lo stay, it becomes
immediately and imperatively necessary for us to give our
business an entire re-organization. The first step in Ibis
direction will consist in immediately reducing the present
slmk to bedrock level, before getting our new Spring mer
chandist large shipments of which are already on the way
and will arrive sborlly after March 1st.
This, then, is the motive behind the l!ig lien Sale. And
vmi may be sure in view ol what we have jusl said and
the necessity of (iiickly clearing shelves and counters of
every piece of surplus stock, to make room for that which
is on the way lhat prices will not be spared to make I'.ig
lien s personally conducted sale a complete success.
The present stock must be reduced at least $i000 by
March lsi. We've priced things in a way lo make this
volume ol business (piickly ami easily possible.
We take this opportunity to thaiik you, our many
friends and customers, for your loyal support in the past,
and wc assure you that we shall try, by right merchandis
ing, honest values, and courteous, intelligent service, to
merit vonr valued patronage in the future.

GOODS
i Big Ben Says I
That every piece of goods
in the house must be marked
with the sale price in plain
figures, so that all may read,
and read quickly.
"There's just one way to
gather in that $6000 you
spoke of," remarked Big Ben.
"Make the prices so low that
people will not only supply
their immediate needs but
lay in a supply for the future,
as well."
"I see considerable new
Spring goods lying around
loose," said Big Ben. "How
about 'em?'' "Put everything
on sale nothing reserved
but 'contract goods,' " we in
structed him. "Spring goods
or Fall goods it makes no
difference to us." Whereup
on Big Ben went for the
prices with a big butcher
knife.
"There's a lot of these
plums that will be picked the
first day," remarked Big Ben.
"A word to the wise is suffi
cient." "Lest we forget," con
cluded Big Ben, "don't over
look the fact that my big,
personally conducted sale be
gins Saturday, Feb. 15th, at

ues until Saturday, March 1st
