"l ean testify to the
great merits of your Emul
sion, especially in all
" diseases of a pulmonary
nature. It has saved many
lives that otherwise would
have yielded to consump
tion ... we keep Scott's
Emulsion in the house all
the time and all the family
use it."-MR. C. J. BUD
LONG, Box 158, Wash
ington, R. I.
Scott's
Emulsion
does all it does by creating
flesh and strength so rapidly
that the progress of the
disease is retarded and often
stopped. It is a wonderful
flesh builder and so easy to
digest that the youngest child
and most delicate adult can
take it. If you are losing flesh
from consumption or any
other cause take Scott's
Emulsion. It will stop the
wasting and strengthen the
whole system.

Delay in Choosing Gifts Means
Disappointment
Waiting until the last week before Xmas to select gifts invariably means disappointment for the giver. People who
choose early get the cream. Don't be a late one and have to take what is left. A visit to our store now will settle
all your gift giving problems. "Holiday money will go further here than ever this year. We have never been able to
offer such values as our stock affords this year. We urge you to come, but not to buy, because our
goods sell themselves.
The Lucky Numbers on Opening Day
Following are the numbers drawn:
C
First Prize, 6269, Second Prize, 6263. Third Prize, 6320.
Fourth Prize, 9605. Fifth Prize, 6295
If you have any one of the above numbers on the yellow ticket
given you at our "opening" the prize is youra and waiting for you
whenever you call for it. Our one regret is that we failed to have
enough souvenirs to go around, but we underestimated the way our
friends would respond to our efforts. We want to thank, you all for
the generous response to our invitation. We assure you we appreci
ated the hundreds of visitors who helped to jolly us along.
After all what could be
a more sensible or use
ful gift than an Um
brella? And the good
thing about this sort
of a present is the
price. You can get
something good and
serviceable as low as a dollar and get a swell one anywhere up to ten
or fifteen dollars. We buy of the big La:rn manufacturers direct,
which insures the best quality at the lowest possible price.
Some Delayed Music Rolls
" if if
8m
Have recently shown up elegant goods that we forgot about buying.
We have marked these extremely low in order to close them all out
before the Holiday Bcason closes.
A present of a Pipe or Cigars never goes
amiss with the average man. Ten chances
to one he will appreciate this sort of a pres
ent more than anything else you can give.
Last year our supply of Holiday packages
of cigars ran out long before Xmas, but we
have doubled our quantity this time and will be prepared for every
demand. We have them by the box as low as 50 cents and as high
as $11.00.
Record Cabinets
Haven't your records knocked around long enough? Would a
fine oak or walnut cabinet in which to keep your records clean and
safe, and on which to keep your machine out of the way, look good
to you? We have about 25 to select from at prices from $10 to $30.
Easy payments if you wish.
Collar and Cuff Boxes
and all kinds of Leather Goods. There
are so many pretty new things in these
lines that it is impossible to describe
them, but they are out for your inspec
tion, marked in plain figures, so you can
look them over for yourself.

Xmas Tree Ornaments
Our store has always been headquarters for everything new in these
lines and we will not disappoint you this year. Plenty of candles and
candle holders.
Our Ton of Candy
is here. We think every year
that Lowney's Xmas Candy
boxes are prettier than they
were the year before, and we
believe they are. Anyhow this
year they are beautiful and we
bought lots -of the popular
priced kind this time to sell
for $1.00 to $2.50. Besides Lowney's we have McDonald's and Iluy
ler's, so we can suit every taste and every pocket book. ,
5 cents to $10.00
Empire Cut Glass
r
.-39 i
Is the equal of any Cut Glass made. The only place where it falls
down is in price and that ought not to hurt any of us. Our Cut
Glass prices are from 20 to 25 per cent, less than any of the much
advertised kind, and if you'll take the trouble to compare them piece
for piece, as we have done, you won't hesitate long to decide in favor
of Empire Cut Glass.
The Home of Perfume
Not many places the size of Oregon City
can boast of a store where perfume is
handled so extensively or so carefully
as it is in ours. People often come in and
- ask if we have this or that Imported
Odor and seem quite surprised to find
that we do have it. Of course we have it !
And we have a fine case to keep such deli
cate goods in, where it's cool and no ray
of sunlight strikes it. If you want the
latest odor, kept right, and at the right prices we HAVE IT.
A
H
ISON
PHONOGRAPH
Here's a gift for the whole fam
ily. Nothing you can buy for
Xmas will do for every member
of the family so much as will the
talking machine. It is truly a
joy forever. On our easy pay
ment plan anyone can afford to
have one. Come in now and pick
one out before the rush of the
last few days before Xmas.

we ran out of last year. We promised not

cost and you will wonder how they can be sold at the price.
