SEEING IS BELIEVING
Robert W. Herter, Lawrenceville,
Mo., who had been bothered with
kidney trouble for two years, says:
"I tried three different kinds of kid
neys pills but with no relief. My
neighbor told me to use Foley Kidney
Pills. I took three bottles of tbem,
and got a permanent cure. I recom
mend them to everybody." Fdy
I will be in La Grande until
the first week in September.
Come early. Do not delay
having your work done until
the last week.
DR. STEVENSON.
I ou are the one best judge of what you want. Trust to your own judgment. Re
ly on the evidence of your own senses. D e mand to be "shown" before you de
cide on the purchase of real estate. If the property is as represented it will not
suffer by examination. We hare nothin g to conceal
That part of Connordale Addition which is now on the market extends along
Washington Avenue from Twelfth street to Sixteenth street on one side and
along Twelfth street between L avenue and F avenue on the other. It is as level
as a table. The soil is a dark rich loam, easy to work and wonderfully fertile.
The sort of ground that produces that th ick, green velvety lawn, that adds so
much to the beauty of a home. It is un derlaid with gravel from 6 to 8 feet be
low the surface. This insures perfect drainage and carries off all surface water.
Cellars do not have to be floored and walled with concrete and will always be free
from stagnant water after a hard rain. Concrete curbs and extra heavy concrete
sidewalks five feet wide have ben laid. The streets are graded and a ten foot
parking space provided on each side. The city water has been piped in and-the
sewers follow this year. Washington A venue is paved with asphalt this
summer right to the head of the Connordale addition. L Avenue, running from
Washington Avenue at the head of Connordale, past the city hall to the high
school, is to be opened up. Electric lights and telephones have already been in
stalled in the new houses built on Connordale and a street lighting system will
soon be provided. Every requisite of a hight-class residence district is found
there. Go and see for yourself, or let u s take you over the Addition in one of
our machines. We have a legitimate, home-building proposition not a wild
cat speculation. You owe it to yourself and your family to investigate it.
