APPLE GROWERS UNION JOLLY UNCLE JOSHUA (Continued from Pace It dellclouH puff. Iaue &. Kent take K re fit pride to keep thut cigar up to the hlKliewt Ntaudiird, ami coune- bathroom, see in the lueutly It KrowB more popular every day. Charley wan mo well pleaaetl with the cigar L'uele Jonh treated III in to that he bought a whole box and advlned liU frtencln to do the Maine tiling, uot forgetting to aUo make a note of the many other tine brand. "And now. young man, let me give you 11 pointer, remarked the gener out old uncle. "Do not uuderHtand me to May that clothe make the man, but 1 do ntltrm that clean and HijotleHH linen makeM the nice aiiiiear lug man. Now, In thin connection 1 am happy to Inform you that the Hood JUver Steam Laundry lit one of the beHt laundrleM In the Htate. I'olly will want her lace curtain w Hulled thin spring, and Itn a tlckllnb Job, you know, but the flood Klver laundry lit ho very careful that the tn oh t delicate fabric! are w aw lied without the MllghteHt Injury, and at a nominal figure too. hchaffuer & AdaiUH, the proprietor, will nee that your collar, cuff and nhlrtu are made white an rinow, unlexg they happen to be colored, but then you needn't lie afraid of a fade, for they pride themelve on doing colored good itatlrifactorlly." "liut look here, I'ncle," Interrupted the young man u they reached the street, "what about wood? We've got the MtoveH, but 1 reckon they wont be of much service wltbrut fuel. We can't keep tire on love alone, can we?" "Ulad you mentioned It," re plied I'ncle JohIi, "buying mo much In one day kinder befuddle a fellow. Fortunately, however. It' only a little dlHtance to the Taft TraiiHfer Company. They are my favorite denier and handle a wood that has no superior and few eiual. Having left the last mentioned place ami punning over to Columbia avenue and Sixth street, the bicycle display of L. K. Fount nest caught the fair l'olly'n eye, and she Innlnted upon an examination of the entire big mock of hilent Mtead. Here again l ucle Joh displayed hi iK-tilgti generonlty by Inventing In a lady's Humbler for hi Idol, a Kambler for her other and superior half, the merits of which he declared were world wide, but he "sot down" hi foot with a venge ance on the bloomer accompaniment. "No, slr-ee," he said, "you can't come any of that 'new wlmmen' business on me. You'll look stunnln' enough on that Kambler without dresnln' up In bloomers." Fount also has the agency for the Kambler auto mobile, the liest on earth, and does repairing of all kind. "Well, I'll swan," laughingly broke In the old man again, "I guess I'll Just get myself a few wheels, while we are about It, but of another kind from yours, yet equally as good for the purpose Intended. I need a sprayer. 1 always did contend that first class machinery was necessary to first class work and I know of no E sprayer that can beat the Hardle for simplicity and all around satisfac tion. A fellow don t have to be sending for an expert to fix 'em right at the most precious moment. The (jllliert-Vaughan Implement Com pany Is the general agent here for the Hardle and I tell you what, they're a good firm to tie to. I'll Just drop In and tell them I've de cided upon a Hardle." "Yes, and we must have Ice for the refrigerator, I'ncle," broke In Char ley. "A 'heat reducer' Is almost as essential as a 'heat producer", you know." "Well, I reckon your'e about right," laughingly replied the old gentleman, "but I can attend to tne ice uumnes aootit as quick as you can say 'Jack Koblnsou.' The Taft Transfer Co. makes a specialty of supplying families, and will put the congealed water right Into your refrigerator, so Poll won't even need to get her fingers wet. Mr. Taft told me the other day that they have a very tine quality of Ice this year. Come along while I leave an order." "How about the plumber, I'ncle?" Inquired Polly. "You remember you said you would see somebody for that." "Jes' so, Jes' so; and we shan't have any botcher do the work, either. I'll go look for Gould & Snyder. We've got to have gas and water pipes put In, a hot water heater and porcelain bath tub, Ik sldes some sanitary flxln's, and this Is the firm to do the work. They ob serve closely all the hygienic "laws against dangers from sewer gases. You can always feel safe about the house when practical men as I know (Inc.) tiould & Suyder to be, have done the work." The aforesaid plumber got the contract, did just what I'ucle Josh said they would do and won Polly's praise for their excellent workmanship. "Land sakes!" suddenly exclaimed I'ncle Josh, "all this trading and slumping round town has canned me to forget one of the greatest essen tials to future exlMtenee. 1 have heard It said that newly married folks could live on love and scenery, but an old man of my experience knows lietter your table would look slim without bread; It's the 'staff of life,' you know. Polly, you must meet K. K. (ilbson, proprietor of the Koynl bakery. His bread, pies and cakes and nick-nacks are coneeeded by all to be the finest on earth. Re member, Charley, there Is no use of your 'ootsy tootsy' bothering herself much about baking so long as there Is a good baker tn town like (ilbson. When you give your reception call at the Royal bakery for the fancy cakes and other good things." "Yes, and while we are on this Im portant topic of gastronomies, we must not forget meat. It goes hand In hnnd with bread. Now to locate a meat market where you can get fresh, wholesome meats at all times. The Hood River Market In the firm to supply you. 'I'lds In the boss meat market In the city, and I pop. ular with everybody w ho Is partic ular to have the best. The reason for this Is nil because the Hood River market Is very careful In the selec tion of stock and gets the freshest of everything, and keeps nothing but the very liest. To keep your 'hubby' In good humor, Polly, trade at the Hood River Market every time." F.nroute to their home the party called at the News otllce.

LAND-BU Did you know that "Underwood" and "Hood River" are in the same Township and Range, and that the two depots are only one and one-fourth miles apart? Stop and think what this means--Soil, Climate and natural conditions absolutely identical. Our side of the river is "new" so far as development is concerned. We need more people. We need yo u. especially if you are willing to take the raw land and improve it, so if you find that you haven't the price for an or chard in Hood River, come over and give us a chance to show you what we have. You will find that a dollar will go very much further toward buying an acre of land here, than it will in any of our neighboring districts.
