Hew Advertisements,
We desire to call the special attention of
the Chemawa ladies to the advertisement
of the Misses Goode'a on page 9. These
ladies are the leading milliners in Salem
and have the largest and most complete
stock of any store in Oregon, outside of
Portland. Those f our Uhemawa ladies
who have been fortunate enough to patro
nize this store speak in the very highest
terms of the low prices, large and fashion
able stock of millinery goods and courteous
treatment they have met with. To call
and inspect her goods and prices is only
an 08surau.ee that you can do better here
tban'in the city of Prt'and. Misses Goode
gives you all a very urgent invitation to
mke them a visit when in Salem,
Herman W. Barr, the Salem Optician,
has a word to say to you in .n advertisement
on first page. Mr. Barr is a scientific opti
cian and possesses one of the best and mott
modern outfits of ophthalmic instrument
in the State of Oregon If yon are troubled
in any way with your eyes call and see him
at his office in Barr's jewelry store, corner
of State and Liberty St.
The Salem Steam laundry has an ad. in
this issue that is worthy of the attention of
our readers. This laundry is one of the
best in Salem. A basket leave here every
Tuesday from Henderson's store, and re
turns Saturday.
While we have not th (roughly enjoyed
the showers of the pstweek or two, yet
they possess their merits, and have been
a great aid to gardens and orchards.
Bright, clear weather would undoubtedly
have been accompanied by frosty nights
which would have been very destructive
to fruit.
