About Electric Irons
si
How do (he women who use electric Irons like them? Are they really
as satisfactory as Is claimed for thtm? That's what you want to
know, madam I Well, ask your friends about them.
We have sold hundreds of Irons In La Grande, and they are all In
use. They save waiting for Irons to iwat; bother of changing irons;
the difficulty of getting irons lust right neither too hot nor too cold.
These are a few of the advantages of the eleoirlc Iron. They cost
leas- to use than the old fashioned kind. . j : v,
No woman, who has used an electric, will ever, willingly, go back
totbe' old fashioned kind. But don't tales our word for It; ask the
woman who. uses an electric. '
' '
We handlo the best makes of electric irons at regular manufacturers'
prices. See them at our office. ,

Last night a thiof . entered N. K.
Wests store and after ransacklne
nearly the entire stock picked out the
articles that beat truck bis fancy and
qulely departed without leaving any
clews that would serve as a calling
card. Entrance , was gained through
the skylight, having reached the roof
by means of a ladder In the back
of the store. It js Impossible to tell
juat what was taken, but it seems cer
tain that at least one suit of clothes,
an extra pair of pant, a hat, a pair of
shoes, snme shirts, and a few. other
things are giving some hobo the P-
parance of a millionaire today.
The gentleman robber apparently
took his time and to be sure that he
was securing what best suited his
fancy he did not fall to Investigate
nearly everythng In stock. The hats
were mixed as If shuffled by an ex
pert; men's clothes were found In the
ladies' shoe department All of which
necessitated much rearrangement on
the part of the clerks this morning.

"Mr. Roosevelt has also told von

Mr. Bede brought hU attack on

"Mr. RoaBevelt Is a disappointed of-

"H tried to steal a presidential
