tains every convenience that can be
hail in the city. A large home
beautifully finished and elegantly
furnished, it is one of the choice
residences on the Columbia River.
No artist could paint a scene of
beautiful mountains and show
capped peaks with a great river in
the foreground along which pass
the ships from all parts of the
world, that would compare with
the grand view that is visible from
the front door of this Iwautiful
resilience. Mt. St. Helens, Mt.
Hood, Mt. Adams and Mt. Rainier,
four of the greatest enow cap)ed
peaks in the world, with the Cas
cade and Coast Range of moun
ting sloping down to the Colum
bia river, the foot hills dotted with
clearings and farm homes and the
Columbia river in front, form the
wonderful scens. The main busi

place for a home ami Mr. and Mrs.
Rutherford have erected a resi
