Over four hundred tine new pianos were sold inside of five weeks in the Fall of i9o2 by Eilers Piano House on the co op erative plan, whkh was then for the first time introduced in western piano selling. The idea originated in Philadalphia, and is a plan that appeals at once to the best judgment of practical people. Five hun. area Pianos can be sold in five lots a great deal cheaper than they can be sold in the regular retail way to five hundred individ ual buyers. it is the same principal of selliug large quantities to a single arm applied to sell' ing One Hundred Pianos to as many peo pie who unite in one Club for that pur pose. TWO MONTHS PREPARATION. Over two months of most painstaking preparation nave been devoted to these five new piano clubs. Over a hundred thousand dollars worth of strictly standaid brand new fully waranteji pianos are in' volved, among them the most costly Kim balls, and Chickerings, and Webers, to gether with such famous makes as the Vose, the Hobart M. Cable, the Hallet & Davis and twenty other highgrade makes. BETTER THAN LAST YEAR. There is no question no was to our abili ty to rill these clubs. No one ill have to wa't now for others to join, nor until the club is filled to get his or her Piano. Members of these clubs do not even have to know now who the other members of the club are. Selection is not limited to a few makes. The entire Eiler's Piano House lines are included in these clubs. The instruments are here in Portland for you to select from. They have been com ing in each day at the rate of two or more carloads, and on one single day last week no less than nine carloads arrived. When you have chosen your piano and made the initial payment the piano is delivered promptly, accompanied by the manufactur er's guarantee and also by Eiler's Piano House. "Money back if not satisfactory" agreement. And the payments range from $1.50 a week (or 5 a month to J1.60. S2 and $2.50 a week, or correspondingly amounts if yoUpreferto pay by the month. o . o Apr gii pi pii urn T I uunin..VumjAl lAUa O I kSuy n PHI I nwniMIl to Have you ever heard of the JjSfft Smithsonian 4 Truss This Is, without any excebt Ion, the best truss on the market.

The saloons in the town have been no tified to keep the ooys ort of their places of business and one saloon man was hauled up before the city recorder Satur day and fined $10 as an object lesson. While most of the saloons in the city are disposed to treat the matter in the right light.there are those who have vio lated the law bv selling drinks to mi nors and allowing youths of yet tender vears to take a hand in games of chance. Boys found loitering about saloons after this will be placed under arrest as will alto tbe saloon keeper. This is a long step in the right direction and no one ought to object to it. i"Vha niipstion how to meet the condition on which the early building of the Dalles-Celilo canal de Dends. admits of four possible solutions," says oar townsman, A.
